The moment remains complicated for the Los Angeles Lakers. The losses are piling up – and more than that, they’re coming at the end of tight, late-game situations that leave a mark. After the defeat against the Phoenix Suns, JJ Redick addressed the issue with notable clarity.
Our losses make more noise than other teams’. Because we’re the Lakers – and because of how we lose.
JJ Redick
One sentence that says it all: identity, expectations and media pressure. It’s not just about losingbut the manner in which it happens. Leads built and then squandered, details that matter more than pure talent in crunch time, mistakes that become decisive when the game is decided by one or two possessions.
Redick didn’t look for excuses. He understands that coaching the Lakers means living with constant scrutinyespecially when losses come in succession and by razor-thin margins. The message is clear: greater execution and control are needed in key moments, because at this level every small mistake is magnified.
