The Los Angeles Lakers had a pretty awful start to the 2021-2022 season. After going 2-3 in their first five games of the campaign, LeBron James and co. have finally found their winning ways, going on a two-game winning streak.
After defeating the Cavaliers 113-101 at home, LAL faced against a young Houston Rockets team in front of 16,000+ fans at the Staples Center. A game that was pretty one-sided from start to finish, saw the 2020 NBA champs grabbing a comfortable 95-85 win.

It was Russell Westbrook who shone out for the Lakers. It was an incredible 20-point, 9-assists and 8 rebounds near triple-double performance by “Brodie” to help LAL improve their record to 4-3.
“LeBron James has shot 1/16 from the 3-point field, make that LeBrick James”: Skip Bayless
King James has had a rather slow start to this new campaign. Playing 5 games so far in his 19th season, Bron has put up 23.8 points, 6.4 assists, 5.8 rebounds, 2.4 steals, 1 block and 4.2 turnovers per game on a 43.6/33.3/76.2 shooting split.
The 4-time NBA Champ has been struggling from the three-point field goal over the past few games. After going 14/29 from beyond the arc in his first 3 games of the season, LeBron has knocked down only 1 three-point shot in the last 16 attempts in his past two games (1/10 & 0/6).
Analyst Skip Bayless made sure to let everyone know that James shot an awful 6.25% from the three-point line in the past two games. Bayless took to his Twitter:
“LeBron James, dead-eye 3-point marksman, is now 1 for his last 16 from three. Make that LeBrick James.”
