D'Antoni: 'Lakers weren't focused'

Mike D'Antoni has said that the Los Angeles Lakers were not as focused during last night's defeat to the Oklahoma City Thunder as they were when they beat the Northwest Division leaders last weekend.

The Western Conference's bottom team were thrashed 131-102, leaving the Thunder level on wins with conference leaders the San Antonio Spurs.

The coach told reporters: "I didn't think we were focused coming out like we were Sunday, and you can't do that against this team.

"We can't lose them in transition two or three times. They're a good offensive team, so if you give them extra points, then you are going to get beat."

The Lakers have lost four of their last five games.
