Q4
LAL 109 POR 118
Growing pains. This has been the narrative for the Lakers all season long on the road. They play well in the first half, but in the second half, they get lackadaisical with their game. Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum did their damage, but Evan Turner stepped up for the Blazers, making it much more difficult for the Lakers defensively to close this game out. Road woes continue here for the most part. Stay tuned for the full recap.
Q3
LAL 84 POR 84
I noted this in the comments, 2nd half performances on the road have been tough for the Lakers all season long. This quarter should come no surprise. I thought they got too careless and that's the unfortunate part of this process. The Blazers storm right back and eventually took the lead, but Julius Randle helped the Lakers tie it up. He's been quiet since the first quarter. It's time for him to take control and use that size, power, and speed to take this game over.
