“Kobe Bryant Would Never!”: Lakers Fans Incensed as LeBron James Seen Laughing During Blowout Loss to Suns

The Los Angeles Lakers’ struggle continues. One win, but then right back to their losing way. One top performance and then back to square one. LeBron James dropping an unbeatable performance or else the Lakers fall out.

This sums up the Lakers’ disappointing season. Losing is one thing, but whenever James has not been able to perform at the highest level, the Lakers have been abysmal. And abysmal was what they were on Sunday night.

The Lakers fell out pretty hard. It is fair to say that the Suns trashed them 140-111 even with the absence of Chris Bosh. Devin Booker was on fire as he scored 30 points with 10 assists. The Suns performed as a team which unfortunately has not been a feature of the Lakers this season.

Lakers Fans fuming over LeBron James reaction

The Phoenix Suns walked all over the Lakers in their easy victory. Following the embarrassing loss against the Phoenix Suns, LeBron was smiling and laughing as soon as the game ended.

It could have been because of whatever reason, but fans believed that this shows how losing this badly does not have the effect on players that it should. The fans on Twitter reacted furiously.

Some fans were brutal towards LeBron. Whereas some made sure to support “their” GOAT. Let’s just say LeBron fans and Lakers fans are not a union right now.

Lakers losing face

The Suns are 1st seed, and they showed why. They have already qualified for the playoffs, whereas the Lakers are struggling to put two wins in a row.

Their contracting situations were quite evident in their match-up as the Lakers were nowhere close to even threatening or challenging them. 

Fans can blame LeBron James all they want and he possibly does deserve the criticism. However, the truth is he is also their last hope to have something to celebrate about. His masterclass performances have been the source of their victories, and without them, they would have been even lower on the table.

Even in the harrowing loss, LeBron James got his 10,000th assist. King James broke another record as he became the only player in history to surpass 10,000 points, 10,000 rebounds, and 10,000 assists.

LeBron James is actually not the problem if you think about it. He surely is not the only problem. Many believe that the attitude and winning mentality is non-existent, pretty much like their defense was against the Suns.

The Lakers need to turn up as a team, not depend on one man and then blame that one guy who did not have the perfect performance. Basketball is a team game. One man can win you games now and then, but not a championship.
