The Los Angeles Lakers did not look good as they dropped another game in a very embarrassing fashion and head coach J.J. Reddick was not ashamed to talk with the media about it.
However he was ashamed about the team after the performance on Wednesday night against the Miami Heat on the road and there was a lack of sense of urgency throughout the game.

The team just did not respond and there is a lot of concern on the part of the coaching staff and the players themselves, not to say the fan base and everyone that is involved in what they want to accomplish.
How to fix this situation
The Lakers are in a pickle as they are still with a winning record but the team has not performed as they wished and in their losses it has not even looked close with very lopsided games that are not in their favor.
J.J. Reddick was very honest after their 134-93 loss in Miami and he was not shy, “I’m embarrassed. We’re all embarrassed… I own this but gonna need some ownership on the court as well,” the head coach said.
There is no question that the head coach is very sad and disappointed about what happened in the game against Miami and to fix it it will take a toll on everyone that is a part of the team.
