The Los Angeles Lakers are a bad basketball team.
They’re bad at offense. They’re bad at defense. They’re ranked in the bottom ten in both of those categories. And with just seven games left in the season and sitting in 11th place in the Western Conference after officially falling out of play-in range with a lifeless loss to the Mavericks in Dallas, it’s pretty clear taht everyone involved realizes how hopeless all this is, and is also experienced enough to know that they don’t have the answers to fix what ails them.
