The Los Angeles Lakers held a team meeting today — not the fun kind — to discuss the failures of their star-studded roster, which has slogged its way to a 17-24 record at the midway point of the season. Here’s a brief recap of that meeting from Los Angeles Times beat writer Mike Bresnahan, including a leader in the clubhouse for Lakers Quote of the Year:
Lakers players “went at each other a litlte bit” in team meeting, I’m told. What’s not to like about a 17-24 record?

D’Antoni on Lakers team meeting: “You never want those kind b/c that means we’re in trouble a bit. That doesn’t happen when you’re 40-1.”

D’Antoni on the Lakers: “Ever watch an All-Star Game? It’s god-awful. Everybody gets the ball, goes 1-on-1 and plays no defense. That’s us.”
