Crazy Lakers comeback from -25 in Portland and win with 37. LeBron

The Blazers-Lakers first half had just ended with the hosts leading 71-46. LA was heading for another blowout. However, it turned out that the “Lake People” had not yet spoken their last word and with an unbelievable counterattack they finally won 112-121!

In one of the craziest games of the season, the Lakers responded with a 75-41 (!) second-half score, tearing apart the Blazers’ psyche by earning a valuable win in their quest to break into the top 10. For now, they’ll be content to edge past Portland (21-25) with a 22-25 record and work their way up to 12th in the West.

LeBron James with 37 points and 11 rebounds led the Lakers, with Thomas Bryant adding 31 points and 14 rebounds and Dennis Schroeder adding 24 points for an LA that showed character for the first time this year.

For the disappointing Blazers, now on a 3-game losing streak, Anferni Simons had 31 points on 7/13 threes, Damien Lillard 24 points (but 5/17 shooting) and 10 assists and Jeremy Grant 17 points (but 6 /16 shots).
