Lakers Blown Out By Suns In Game 5 115-85, Lakers No-Show, LeBron 24 Pts, Kuzma 15 Pts https://youtu.be/sRnvf9wCdM4 Lakers Overwhelmed Without Anthony Davis "These shoulders are built for a reason," LeBron told reporters prior to Game 5 when asked about playing without Davis. "If there is going to be some more put on them, so be it. Win, lose or draw, I'm ready for the challenge." And what a challenge it was. The Lakers looked absolutely lost on offense without Davis in the first half as James struggled from the field and the supporting cast appeared overwhelmed for stretches. They managed an abysmal 10 points in the second quarter alone as Phoenix swarmed the King and rotated quickly enough to bother outside shooters. That a Los Angeles squad that finished the season just 24th in the league in offensive rating, per NBA.com, had issues on that end of the floor wasn't particularly surprising, but the level of ineffectiveness was disarming. The Lakers needed a Superman performance from James to have a chance, and that never came. He did what he could be catching fire from three-point range in the third quarter, but it was an uphill battle from the start. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was also ruled out with a left knee contusion in the second half, which is the same injury that kept him sidelined for Game 4. Los Angeles still has the championship experience and talent to win two more games in this series, but it will need a much better effort than Tuesday's contest. What's Next? The series shifts back to Los Angeles for Thursday's Game 6. Its a must win for Lakers if they want to avoid elimination in game 6. So Z Nation, what did you think about the Lakers no-show performance in game 6??? And can the Lakers bounce back from this???
