LAL battled and outplayed MEM in the 2nd half, but come up just short. Were down 22, end up losing 108-103.

Crazy outcome. Despite drilling home 15/28 3-pointers and out-shooting MEM second half, Lakers still on losing end. Out-rebounded 45-34

35 bench points — 30 from Farmar/Brooks combo — not enough to make comeback successful. Gasol battled all night with 17 points & 10 boards

Seeing Marc and Pau talk after the game, shake hands and part ways made me sad. I don't know why but it did. #brothers

At 23 wins now – it appears unlikely the Cavaliers will "catch" the Lakers in lottery chase. Knicks still in range though at 21 wins

Memphis Grizzlies Beat

It wouldn't be the Grizzlies if they didn't give you a heart attack

Refs are trying to make the game close with some of these calls. They'll need to make a lot more for it to work.

When Lakers Nash it was the end. Who signs a 40yr old PG with a bad back. Should have given Nash AARP instead of a contract.
