"King James" downplayed the milestone number in his postgame press conference.
"That doesn't mean much to me," he said.
James was clearly frustrated with the loss and said that "a lot" needed to change about the team’s performance in order to prevent another blowout like that on the road.
The 76ers hit 22 3-pointers in the win. The Lakers only hit seven. Philadelphia outscored Los Angeles 40-14 in the fourth quarter, even with Joel Embiid sitting on the bench.
