The two LA teams have gone through their fair share of struggles this season. Although one has seemed to figure it out, the Los Angeles Lakers have had the short end of the stick for some time now. Despite winning the in-season tournament, LeBron James‘ Lakers have struggled to capitalize on the momentum. But the Lakers have finally found a sign of relief as the team recently took down the Los Angeles Clippers in a classic showdown.

Even though the Los Angeles Lakers snapped their 4-game losing streak by taking down the Clippers, who have been on a 5-game winning streak, former Houston Rockets star Chandler Parsons is not ready to give any credit to the team.

“This team went through this last year. They went through these losing streaks. They have struggled, they made some moves. I look for them to do something similar this season, but I don’t know if they figured anything out… Last night, I think it was more of what the Clippers didn’t do than what the Lakers did,” said Chandler Parsons during a recent episode of Run It Back.

Although the Lakers clinched the win against the Clippers, who were on a roll after figuring things out with James Harden, Chandler Parsons was not impressed by what the team did. He feels that the Clippers were not performing to their usual standards. He thinks that is the reason behind the team’s loss.

The Lakers took down the Clippers, who had all their star players available to play. But the team contained the barrage of attacks from Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, and James Harden. On the other hand, LeBron James and Anthony Davis performed well with great shooting to get the team over the hump against their division rivals. But can the Lakers keep it up?

The Los Angeles Lakers are in turmoil

The Lakers have been on a downward trajectory recently. After breaking their previous losing streak, they went right onto another one. The team had just won the in-season tournament, but this kind of drop in production was unexpected.

Forget failing to live up to expectations; the team has fallen below the .500 mark after going on a 3-10 run following the tournament. But the team still has time to figure things out. The trade deadline is still approaching. Head coach Davin Ham also has the organization’s support to continue his work and make things right, despite many having a disconnect with him. But based on how the team is performing currently, there is no clear-cut answer to how LeBron James and the Lakers will end up.
