The Los Angeles Lakers had a rough night that even former LA's point guard passed over them

One of the worst games for the season came out of Monday night at Philadelphia with the Lakers being dominated in the entirety of the game by the 76ers with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey unstoppable with each of them scoring a minimum of 30 points.

It was a complete nightmare for the Lakers from start to finish, from the coaching staff to the bench players as everyone was truly awful, even Anthony Davis and LeBron James weren't capable of having a good game.

The game for the purple and gold was so bad that even former Lakers center Mo Bamba scored them a 3-pointer and a total of 7 points. 

Patrick Beverley had a good night with 24 minutes of playtime for a total of 12 scored points with all of them coming from 3-pointers, something he never did in his time with LA.

LeBron James was honest on the 76er's 3-point superiority

"We got killed on the 3-point line today." LeBron keeps it simple with his reason for the loss tonight. "We went with our coverages, they made shots. Give them credit." LeBron didn't elaborate but he said that a lot needs to change for the Lakers to be competitive. The fans want a change in the head coach area for the benefit of the team.
