Well, that was amazing. 

The Lakers were thoroughly outclassed for three-quarters of Wednesday's "road" game against the Clippers at the Crypt. After Mason Plumlee scored the opening points of the fourth, the Lakers were down 21 points, and seemingly out of it. Nobody told LeBron James, however. 

He went absolutely bonkers from there, finishing with 19 points and five three's in the final quarter to eat up the deficit and more. Overall, the Lakers outscored the Clippers 39-16. It started with sustained defensive effort and then resulted in shot after shot after shot, mostly from James but also D'Angelo Russell, Anthony Davis and even Cam Reddish, who had an important triple as well. 

It was a game that may have rescued the team's chances to move up in the Western Conference before the end of the season. Like the Boston game, which kicked off the team's most recent stretch of high end play, this one has a chance to be a pivot point should things turn out the way Lakers fans hope when it's all said and done. 

This was certainly one of those moments where the greatness of a LeBron performance is made even greater by the context. Remember, we're talking about a 39-year old star.
