Lakers getting their act together in the absence of LeBron James

The Lakers were without their talisman LeBron James, but the team never really felt his absence, which is to say the Lakers looked stable without James on the court. It was a great game for Russell Westbrook and Dwight Howard who has not played a lot of minutes this season, he came out scoring 24-points for the purple and gold army. 4 players in the Laker jersey came out with 20-points, it is a sight to see this season when 4 players have got 20+ points for the Lakers, and that too in the absence of LeBron James.

The Lakers lost the game, but there has been some improvement in terms of gameplay, the Sixers edged the game by 126-121, the game was kept close by the Lakers, as they ended the 1stquarter with a 3-point lead, going into the 2nd they let off their foot off the gas, but the second half was a much more competitive environment. The Lakers are unchanged in their league standings with 1 win ahead of the New Orleans Pelicans.
