Luke Walton stressed the importance of team camaraderie following the Los Angeles Lakers' 118-107 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.

The loss featured a 22-0 run by the Clippers.

Walton said, "I felt like we kind of started to splinter a little bit while [the 22-0 run] was happening. That can't happen. We can lose games, but we'll lose them together. When we win them, we'll win them together. No matter what's happening on the court, we have to stay together and keep working and figure it out."

Kyle Kuzma added that "we can't be a front-running team. When things are up, we can't just all be happy, and then when things are down, we're just separate from each other. So the biggest thing for us is just to always be together. Every team has rough patches in a season...it's all about us sticking together and just keeping it like a fist".

The Lakers have lost two games in a row, both played without LeBron James, Rajon Rondo, and Javale McGee.
