Lakers News: LeBron James Pulls No Punches In Admitting Main Weakness Vs 76ers

The Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Philadelphia 76ers by 44 on Monday night, and things now feel at a low in the season. While it's just one game, the overall sense from the game after the matter is that the team needs to get better.
Lakers star LeBron James explained what went wrong with the team against Philadelphia. He pointed out that the difference in made three-point shots ended up killing LA.

The Lakers shot 7-28 from beyond the three-point line, while Phialdephia made 22-46. That is a 45-point difference on three-point shooting alone, and the Lakers could never recover.
It was a poor game all around for this team and the worst loss of James's career. There really isn't anything to take from the tape, so the team should just flush it all, and start over.
They were outmatched from mid-way through the first quarter until the final buzzer, and it's become a common theme for LA. They start the first few minutes on fire, then they let up, to find themselves playing catch up the rest of the game.
The Lakers also lost the turnover battle 17 to five. That isn't going to get it done, especially against a good team like the 76ers.
While they still have a winning record on the season, they could easily be under .500. They have won a few games that they needed to come back in, and they've exhausted more energy than likely needed.
