Summary
Losers of four games in a row and seven of their last eight, the Lakers are in a rut and need to dig themselves out of it. Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss the nature of being down the way the team currently is, why playing better can't just be about improving schemes or rotations, and how LeBron's leadership is needed now more than ever -- even if the asks being made of him aren't entirely fair considering the load he has to carry and the stage he's at in his career.

| 0:00.0 | What do you think about the Laker team now? |
| 0:03.4 | You follow the box scores of the games every day? |
| 0:06.0 | Just the Lakers. |
| 0:07.3 | You're kidding. |
| 0:08.6 | That is really a compliment. |
| 0:12.8 | I was pleased to see you smile at the top bar show because once the game starts, you have a game face. |
| 0:17.8 | You don't smile much out there. |
| 0:20.4 | I don't think you have to do things for money anymore. Correct. What's up, Laker fans? Welcome to the Laker Film Room podcast, brought you by the Blue Wire Podcast Network. I'm Pete, joined by Darius and Mike. And the Lakers continued their string of losses with a few very embarrassing ones mixed in between, of which last night was one of them. Now, D, there is a rightful like, |
| 0:38.9 | this team just isn't very good, which is true. There's also a level beyond that where they |
| 0:46.1 | really stop trying. And when they really, when the other team gets something going, the give |
| 0:53.2 | up kicks in very quickly. And this is something you've |
| 0:55.9 | been talking about, about belief and about how belief can and will erode more and more, |
| 1:00.9 | the less success you experience in doing what you're trying to do. And so that third quarter last |
| 1:08.0 | night, man, like, I don't know. I want to start there. |
| 1:11.6 | Just this idea. |
| 1:16.1 | Like, I know this team is, especially without AD, is a bad team. |
| 1:19.1 | But stuff like that is unacceptable. |
| 1:22.1 | And we have this pot, I think, twice a week now. |
| 1:24.5 | And it's getting more and more frequent. And that needs to be addressed before any of the lineups and schemes and all that. |
| 1:29.4 | Yeah, you had reached out and said, hey, what are we going to do on a pod when the team keeps losing? |
| 1:37.1 | And every loss is not the same way. |
