Lakers blown out by Bulls 146-115
The Los Angeles Lakers suffered their worst loss of the season to the Chicago Bulls on Saturday. The Bulls dominated, especially in the second half, winning 146-115.
This game saw the Purple and Gold fully healthy for the first time in a while, with LeBron James and Rui Hachimura returning to the lineup.
With that said, let’s break down why the LakeShow dropped this game.

Lakers poor defense
LA was lackluster on the defensive end of the floor throughout the contest. Seven Bulls players finished in double-digits, with Coby White scoring 36 and Matas Buzelis with 31.
Josh Giddey also had an incredible performance, almost having a quadruple-double. Giddey had 15 points, 10 rebounds, 17 assists, and eight steals.
The Lakers were diced up, and they will need to improve moving forward. LA takes on the Orlando Magic on the road on Monday, which will be their chance to bounce back.
