Trailing 3-2 in the series the Lakers head home to STAPLES Center for Game 6 with their back against the wall.
For LeBron James, the situation is an unfamiliar one, with the Los Angeles superstar never losing a first round series over the course of his Hall of Fame career.

"We got our ass kicked. It's that simple," James told reporters. "It's literally win or go home at this point. You shoot all of the bullets you got, and throw the gun, too."

Guess he doesn’t want to be associated with this shame.”
