On Sunday, the Los Angeles Lakers lost their match to the Miami Heat. While LeBron James was at courtside, he showed his respect to his former team, the Heats. Through that loss, the Lakers have dropped back below .500 on the season. With 45 games played, the Lakers are only 23-24 ahead of schedule.
