FT LAL 124 Golden State 116

My goodness, LeBron had 56 points tonight, 45% of his team's total. Golden State has lost four straight and eight of their last ten. They're in third place in the West. "Lakers" are ninth, seven games below .500, nine games out of an automatic playoff spot and 3-7 in their last ten. To restate the obvious, that is just a crime. Apparently Russell Westbrook is the problem. Coach Frank Vogel and management are discussing taking Russ out of the starting unit and bringing him off the bench, which would be humiliating for Russ. He started tonight and had 20 points.
