In Thursday’s game against the clippers, the defense was improved and more aggressive.

On a team culture front, the lakers showed some real fight, coming from double digits down twice to make the clippers earn their win.

Lakers coach Darwin Ham said. ‘ I am super-duper proud of our guys, they competed’.

David Ham said, ‘ I think we have seen improvement from Game 1 to Game 2, especially on the defensive end.

Lakers competed on defensive, got stops then got out in transition, they made runs on the clippers- they even took the lead early in the fourth. But the clippers were dipper, bigger, and executed for longer stretches.
