Back at the Staples Center, the Los Angeles Lakers took on the Cleveland Cavaliers in their sixth game of the season. Coming in with a record of 2-3, they will certainly look to back up their shocking loss to OKC Thunder. The Lakers need to improve their late-game tactics, and their previous loss was proof; they lost despite being up by 26 points at one point. LeBron James is also making his return after missing the previous two games to ankle soreness.

Apart from him, the duo of Russell Westbrook and Anthony Davis are doing their job. In the King’s absence, they took over for the Lakers and showed out. Notably, AD has been scoring 30 points in back-to-back games since LeBron has gone down with ankle soreness. On the other hand, Westbrook put up his first triple double in the last game, but turnovers are still an issue.

Cleveland vs Lakers will be an interesting matchup to watch, with the Cavs entering the game with a winning record of 3-2. However, the Lakers are struggling to keep possession, and fans are not liking it.

The purple and gold received good news with LeBron James making his return. Likewise, they started the first quarter strong, taking a 4 point lead early. Westbrook was aggressive for the Lakes tallying 7 points. However, things went south after that. The Cavaliers went off on a 13-0 run to end the quarter, thus taking the lead to end the first quarter.

The main reason for this was the Lakers’ turnovers. Their struggles were evident, and the fans were quick to get on it. They racked up a total of 10 turnovers in the first quarter alone. Moreover, they couldn’t keep a hold of the ball while the Cavs continued to hurt them because of the turnovers.

Chemistry is being highlighted a lot with any Lakers game. Despite having many new faces, the chemistry seems to be lost rather than gone off. There have been many unforced turnovers coming every game. Moreover, conflicts are always coming up when the team struggles on the court.
