The loss to the last-place Rockets reinforced how much pressure the Lakers are under, and how they’re still struggling to meet the vision of the team they want to be.
It was just enough of a sniff of a dream to drive Lakers fans delirious after a season-and-a-half of struggle.
Coach Darvin Ham’s frustration after falling to lowly Houston on Wednesday night reinforced how much pressure the Lakers are under, and how they’re still struggling to meet the vision of the team they want to be. There’s a lot of that going around, admittedly: As of Thursday morning, fourth-place Phoenix through 12th-place New Orleans were separated by just four games. In their past 10 games, the best record belongs to the Golden State Warriors while the worst belongs to the Pelicans . Everyone else remains somewhere in the muddled middle, which has stubbornly refused to come unknotted.
