Lakers Couldn't Overcome Hawks' 35 Point 3rd Quarter Barrage

Jordan Hill continues to rebuild his confidence being the Lakers' top performer with 21 points and 9 rebounds on a perfect 8-8 shooting, but the Lakers couldn't hang with the Hawks as the Hawks' outscoring of the Lakers 35-19 in the 3rd and Kobe Bryant's lackluster shooting proved to be the difference makers in the Lakers' recent defeat 100-114 in Atlanta. Pau Gasol added 16 points and 10 rebounds and Nick Young and Xavier Henry were the bench's leading scorers with 23 points from Swaggy P and 18 points from X.

Final Score: @ Atlanta 100-114 [L]
