After a strong start, the Los Angeles Lakers fell behind by 14 in the second quarter, and it looked like the same old tired story for them.
But they rallied to make it a ballgame in the third period, and in the final frame they outplayed one of the best teams in the NBA for a thrilling 124-116 win.
LeBron James led the way with a vintage performance, but for once he got help, and the most maligned player on the team helped out in a major way.
This was, without a doubt, the Lakers’ best win of the season, at least so far. With 19 games remaining, perhaps it will end up as the turning point of the year.
