Lakers vs. Clippers tonight

Following the loss against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night, the Lakers have tonight the opportunity to snap out of the current 4-game losing streak and to make things better as they are 3-9 since they won the IST, the problem is, everything is against the Lakers.

The two Los Angeles NBA teams are currently living different realities, for one hand, the Lakers since winning the IST have been losing and coach Darvin Ham is now disconnected from his players with LeBron James frustrated with his current teammates while the Clippers have a 16 game winning streak since Russell Westbrook went to had a coming off the bench role.

To make things worse, the biggest concern ahead of tonight's game against the Clippers is that since the IST, the Lakers rank 28th in Opponent's 3-point percentage, with teams shooting 42% from 3 against them. During that same stretch, the Clippers are 2nd in 3-point %, hitting 41%. That's a bad, bad combination.

What's really crazy is that, on average, Lakers' opponents have shot better from 3 than the best shooting team in the league has in the time since the IST.

LeBron James was partying with tonight's enemy
