LeBron James tried to call a timeout right before Max Christie's inbound pass intended for him was picked off in the final seconds.

After falling behind by 22 points in first half, the Lakers have a chance to force overtime but a turnover on an inbound play costs them their chance.

Unable to complete the comeback, the Lakers fell to 20-15 on the season while Houston improved to 23-12. This contest was not without controversy, as the Lakers committed a turnover on their final possession while James was seemingly trying to call a timeout.
