Reporter Saves LeBron James From Going Off On His teammates

by HHL JT

Things are not going well with the Lakers

LA fell to 24-25 after getting stomped last night by the lowly Hawks and are in jeopardy of falling out of the play-in.

After the game, LeBron James was asked if he had a message for his teammates.  He was about to go off when a reporter cut him off.

"I don't have any message for my teammates. Just go out and do your job. I mean, I'm not here. Appreciate it. You had to cut me off because he as about to go," James said.

The Lakers were forced to play last night without Anthony Davis.  Although it was only the third game the notoriously brittle big man has missed this year.

What do you think is going on with the Lakers?  Some would argue that despite LeBron posting incredible offensive numbers for a man his age, his defense has become such a liability the 39-year-old is starting to hurt his team.
