The 2021-22 Los Angeles Lakers have been tough to watch most of the time. Russell Westbrook looks like a shell of himself, and theyāve literally needed LeBron James to score 50+ to win after the All-Star break.
The problem with Frank Vogelās team isnāt just that theyāre losing games but how theyāre losing them. Theyāre putting up no effort in the defensive end, with teams snatching offensive rebounds right out of their hands.
Itās been their body language that has sent off the fans and even some former greats of the franchise. Now, even Robert Horry has joined the list of ex Lakers that just had enough with this team.
NBA News: Robert Horry Puts The Los Angeles Lakers On Blast
āI donāt know really what to say,ā Horry said. āYou watch this team and all of a sudden, they give you that excellent third quarter and youāre like āokay, this is the Lakers we fell in love with.ā And now all of a sudden they flip the script where the ball doesnāt move, everybody says āwe got a run going, let me be the star now, let me take a bad shot.'ā
āAnd you canāt have this if you want to be a ball club that wins games,ā Horry added. āYou have to be consistent and stay the course. Itās just hard sometimes to sit here and stay positive and watch this because they keep doing dumb stuff.ā
LeBron Says They Need To Make More Shots
āWe gotta make shots. Itās that obvious,ā James said after the game. āTeams are daring us to shoot the ball from outside and weāre not making them⦠We just have to make shots. Itās not rocket science. Just make shots.ā
The Lakers have the toughest remaining schedule in the league and are at serious risk of not even making it to the play-in tournament. Maybe, theyād be better off just tanking their way through the end of the season, as this is getting tough to watch.
