The Lakers led 58-57 in the first half, but the Knicks launched a 15-2 offensive before the end of the third quarter to open the score to 10 points. James scored a fast break dunk at 3:38 before the end, chasing the score to 99-103. Randle then responded with a 3-pointer to open the score again. Davis scored a 3-pointer 16 seconds before the end, chasing the score to 109-112. However, Nick Josh Hart made two free throws, giving the Lakers no chance to counterattack.
The Lakers recently won their first mid-season championship in history. They returned home today and held a celebration ceremony before the game and hung the championship banner on the court. It’s just that the team lost in the end. After winning the championship in the mid-season championship, they lost three of the past four games, including losing to the Western Conference owner St. Anthony Spurs three days ago, which ended the Spurs’ longest losing streak of 18 in team history. The Lakers currently have 15 wins and 12 losses, ranking 8th in the Western Conference. The Knicks have 15 wins and 11 losses, ranking fifth in the Eastern Conference.
