What happened this past dawn in Los Angeles was somewhat embarrassing. Not because the Lakers fell again (there are eleven games in a row counting last season, the preseason and the two that have been played this time), but because of the image they gave both the NBA and the rest of the world.
The pinnacle was the grabs and shoves that Anthony Davis and Dwight Howard starred in in a second-quarter timeout against the Suns. The team did not fuel, they had their pluses and minuses and they showed that the dressing room is anything but a united group. They both began to argue and had to be separated to avoid an even more daunting image.
We fix it that way at the time. We just had a disagreement about something that happened on the court, “Howard said after the game ended. Those apologies weren’t enough for a Lakers legend like Magic Johnson., which did not take long to show his discontent with the franchise and the team.
“In my 42 years associated with the Lakers I have never seen anything like this. The Lakers have a basketball problem and a team problem, “insisted the legendary Lakers point guard. The powder keg in the locker room was even more demonstrated when Rondo, in the third quarter, faced a fan.
He had been scolding him while the point guard was waiting on the bench, so Rondo decided to respond and pretended to shoot him. The fan ended up expelled. In the end, the defeat and the result was the least of it.
