LeBron James was visibly disappointed after his team’s convincing defeat by the New Orleans Pelicans.
They lost 123 to 95.
“I have no answer for tonight,” said LeBron, who scored 32 points in the match.
Following their fifth loss in the last six games, the Lakers dropped to the season’s worst percentage of performance with 27-33.
If we talk about the future, I don’t know. It’s up to us to figure it out. You don’t know what might happen in the next few weeks. But tonight, from the middle of the second to the end of the third quarter, I had no answer. The Pelicans played well. They won in Phoenix and now they beat us. That third quarter was crucial, “said James.
LeBron had seven turnovers, so he was asked if the cause was a knee problem.
I played pretty badly tonight, with terrible lost balls. Four were quite catastrophic. The other three were simply mistakes. Bad connection I could have been much better, but no, my knee didn’t affect my game. “
