Lebron James Returned, But The Lakers Record Over Their Last Six Games Has Been Really Bad

LeBron James returned from his long time out due to injury, and the Lakers still lost another game on Friday night against the Kings.
The team is an abysmal 1-5 in their last six games, and things will need to get better as they head into the playoffs.
Their struggles are understandable in the fact that Anthony Davis missed over two months of action and just returned last week, and James is just now back after Friday night. Yet, they are still six games behind the Denver Nuggets for the fourth and final seed, giving a team home-court advantage.
The Lakers will need to get it together before they head into the playoffs.
Here are some Tweets about the Lakers.
The Kings just spoiled LeBron’s return.... brutal loss for the Lakers.
