Darvin Ham Uses 4 Words To Describe Lakers ‘Mood’ After 11th Straight Loss to Nuggets

Down 0-2 in their series against the Denver Nuggets, the Los Angeles Lakers needed to take Game 3 on their home court on Thursday to prevent a true must-win situation in Game 4.

The Lakers, unfortunately, just couldn't get it done. Despite receiving 59 combined points from LeBron James and Anthony Davis, the Lakers were defeated 112-105 last night to fall down 0-3 in the first-round series.

On Friday, Lakers coach Darvin Ham needed just a few words to describe his team's 'mood' at this afternoon's film session.

"Guys are irritated, frustrated, fed up," Ham said, according to ESPN's Dave McMenamin.

Being down 0-3 in a playoff series to the Nuggets isn't new for Los Angeles - the Lakers found themselves in the same position (albeit two rounds later) in the 2022-23 postseason.

Denver ultimately completed the sweep on the way to winning the NBA Finals last year, but will the Lakers face the same fate this postseason?

We'll find out tomorrow night at 8:30 p.m. ET.
