Another day, another disappointing loss for the Los Angeles Lakers. In LeBron James' return from injury, the star-studded team just couldn't get it together, as the Lakers bowed to the Boston Celtics 108 – 130. It was another loss against a team that they should definitely be beating, regardless of health.

After the game, LeBron James called out his Lakers teammates, urging them to play with more drive and passion. Here's the full quote, courtesy of ClutchPoints' Michael Corvo:

“We damn sure need to play better…It’s never that we got 65 games and we’ll figure it out then…There’s no level of panic, but there should be a sense of urgency every time we hit the floor.”

A common complaint amongst Lakers fans this season has been the lack of intensity from the roster. Despite showing some alarming signs, many feel like the team thinks that they can coast through the regular season and they can figure it out when it matters. LeBron (despite his penchant for coasting himself) knows that this season is different: they need to be on their toes and start playing with more drive.

The Lakers star finished up his answer by delivering a wise line.

“It's never as bad as it may feel, and it's never as good as it may seem.”

If the Lakers want to get back to their winning ways, they have to figure out a way to start tacking on more wins against lesser opponents. First on their agenda has to be dealing with the Russell Westbrook conundrum: can the fiery guard coexist with LeBron James together on the court? These questions need answers, and they shouldn't wait until it's too late to figure it out.
