Lakers, down to backcourt of last resort, are crushed by Spurs
The Lakers' locker room was an inexplicably steamy 77 degrees an hour before their playoff game. Yeah, they felt the heat. They got pushed off the court by the San Antonio Spurs and almost surely will be ejected soon from the Western Conference playoffs...

Lakers' Andrew Goudelock rises to the moment
