Fans of the Los Angeles Lakers started this season with a great deal of expectation, especially after last year’s disappointing results. According to their performances so far this season, it looks like it’s going to be a tough road ahead for them. 

As a result of the 106-104 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, the Lakers have lost their third straight game since the start of the season. Fans will undoubtedly be disappointed with the team’s performances so far, especially after finishing pre-season with a 1-5 record as well. 

Fans saw some great performances from the Trail Blazers, especially from Damian Lillard. With 12.4 left in the game, he hit a pull-up 3-pointer that gave his team a lead that eventually won the game.
