Tonight the Lakers made history, they returned on a game that seemed lost, but everyone on the team had the right mindset, and they could defeat an unstoppable Memphis Grizzlies squad.

Los Angeles defeated them, and with that snap, the 11-game winning streak that Memphis previously had, in significant part thanks to Russell Westbrook, who was the man of the game, even when LeBron still had a good performance and Schroder literally "stole" the night for the win.
