Q4
LAL 119 POR 128
Just like that, Portland's win streak against the Lakers extends to the same amount of championships won by the Lakers. Decent start to the LeBron era early in the game, but wow 3-pointers, turnovers, and offensive rebounding doomed this Laker team big time tonight. Dame and McCollum got hot when it mattered the most and they got that third man in Stauskas to step up the scoring and 3-point shooting. Once again, back to the drawing board to beat this Blazers team. This losing streak continues to be ridiculous. Stay tuned for the full recap.
Q3
LAL 91 POR 93
Just when we thought the Blazers are gaining momentum back, the Lakers came back. Two big threes at the end - from Rondo and the buzzer beater from Josh Hart. Portland's size was causing the Lakers' small-ball lineup all kinds of problems. Now, they were beating them at their own game. But finally, the Lakers are hitting their 3-pointers. Josh Hart started it off and then Rondo. All of a sudden, the Lakers went from being down by a couple to being down by just two. Brandon Ingram came alive this quarter as well, scoring 8 of his 12 points in this quarter alone. This game is setting up to be a stretch run for both teams heading into Q4.
