With the Lakers trailing 91-71 versus the Dallas Mavericks entering the fourth quarter, there was one thing I was sure of, Los Angeles was going to lose this game.
There was no way the Lakers would overcome a 20-point deficit against a high-powered offense such as the Dallas Mavericks. What occurred next both shocked me and was expected.
It's now a 21-4 run in the 4th Q, and LAL are within 3 after a pretty lefty layup from LeBron through Mavs traffic.
