Heading into Friday night, the Los Angeles Lakers were set to take on a rebuilding Brooklyn Nets who were coming off their worst loss in franchise history against the L.A.

Redick has challenged the Lakers ever since he took the job as head coach. There's been a level of accountability, transparency, and consistency throughout this season. So far, that method has paid off. They sit at the No. 6 seed right now with a 21-17 record. Los Angeles has had some bumps in the road, as all teams do.
