LA Lakers humiliation continues after NBA fans spot ‘most embarrassing sequence of season’ in Miami Heat hammering
After a video of the Los Angeles Lakers’ loss against the Miami Heat went viral, the players were made fun of on social media.
Erik Spoelstra’s club humiliated JJ Redick’s team last night, 134-93.
The loss followed the Lakers’ terrible 109-80 thumping by the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday.
In the aforementioned footage, the Lakers performed a series of pitiful defensive plays.
Under the rim, Jimmy Butler discovered Duncan Robinson totally unprotected.
Rui Hachimura and Anthony Davis stayed motionless during the play, protecting no one.

Despite the fact that no one was present, LeBron James seemed to be trying to hide by watching over the corner.
Unexpectedly, Robinson chose to pass back out to Bam Adebayo on the sidelines.
Tyler Herro then made a wide-open three after Adebayo swung the ball to him.
With 9:10 left in the third quarter, the three-ball put the score at 77-56.
Additionally, the incredibly awful defensive performance left spectators in shock.
On X, someone questioned, “Who is LeBron boxing out and guarding?”
It was the “most pathetic defensive effort I’d ever seen,” according to another.
“Lakers playing so little defense in the paint the Heat are just toying with them now lol,” a third individual stated.
“Grade school defense is better,” one person commented.
It was described as “embarrassing” by Magic Johnson.
‘I’M EMBARRASSED, WE’RE ALL EMBARRASSED’
After losing six of their previous eight games, the Lakers are presently 12-10 and in ninth place in the Western Conference.
James has started all 22 games this season and will turn 40 later this month.
Redick, a rookie coach, criticized his team’s performance following last night’s game.
“I’m embarrassed, we’re all embarrassed,” revealed the 40-year-old. “I didn’t think we had the proper fight or professionalism in this game.

“I’m not sure what was mistranslated. The court must have some sense of ownership. I’m embarrassed, but I’ll accept full responsibility for this team, which I lead.”
Tonight, the Lakers resume their road trip when they play the Atlanta Hawks.
