"If this was the last time LeBron James visits Downtown's Barclays Center, the 41-year-old NBA legend certainly made it memorable. James scored a game-high 25 points, handed out seven assists and picked up three steals before a sellout crowd of 18,248 on the corner of Atlantic and Flatbush on Tuesday night, lifting the Los Angeles Lakers to a 125-109 victory over the slumping Nets."
"The Nets (13-36) didn't bother to show up until midway through the second quarter, trailing by as many as 39 in the first half after getting outscored 45-23 by James and company in the opening 12 minutes. The Lakers made 15 of their first 18 shots, getting to the basket with ease while the Nets went stone cold after rookie Egor Dëmin opened the scoring with a 24-footer."
