The Lakers did not bring in DeRozan but Weisbrook was the biggest failure, and Weisbrook, despite his fame, was not suitable for the Lakers. DeRozan is the right fit for the Lakers. Westbrook's mistakes are a kind of injury to the team, and the habits that have been developed after playing for many years are difficult to change. In the game against the Bulls, Anthony saved the opponent from outside the three-point line, and Westbrook waited under the basket to grab the rebound, did not have that kind of defensive enthusiasm, only cared about the rebounding data.
James
The Bulls and the Lakers play, the Bulls are holding their breath and the Lakers are playing, Caruso, Ball is the Players traded by the Lakers, so come to the Lakers to prove themselves, to prove that the Lakers gave up on themselves is a mistake, DeRozan is also to prove himself, to prove that he is more valuable than Wei Shao, the result is Thatrozan played very well, the middle distance is accurate.
DeRozan shot accurately, it can be said that in the NBA league, few people can match DeRozan in mid-range shooting, such people will play a big role in the playoffs, the magic ball era focuses on the basket and three-point offense, mid-range efficiency is not a very high scoring means, but DeRozan, Durant, Booker, Aldridge and other people in the middle distance so accurate, will pull away the opponent's defense, the opponent's defense of the mid-range jump shot, under the basket and outside the three-point line will appear opportunities.
The Lakers chose Westbrook to have one more ball-holding point and organize points. James is injured, at least someone on the court can organize the attack, but Westbrook has no brain to play, it is a pity to let Caruso go, Caruso rarely makes mistakes, the mind is very smart, and the defense is also there. Wei has little organizational ability, accompanied by a high turnover rate, compared to Paul's role in the Suns, Paul organizes the attack is very strong, the mistakes are very low, so the Suns' overall offense has the outside Paul control field, Booker scores, the inside line Ayton town guard, each player performs his duties, the Sun plays team basketball, so the Sun is very strong.
Players like Lakers James and Westbrook are offensive and defensive, and they are very tired to play, and if such players are injured, other players cannot make up for it. Besides, James does not want to play desperately in the regular season now, afraid of injury, so the Lakers are very cautious about james, is it not desperate in the regular season, the playoffs are desperate to play, you can play the state, you can win the championship, this is a question.
Davis is too important to the Lakers, a player who integrates attack and defense inside. If Davis is injured or reimbursed, the Lakers will basically take the championship out of play. Davis hasn't missed the regular season this season and may have been a bit overused, hoping Davis wouldn't get hurt. Anthony is still OK, still very efficient, sometimes the feel is not good, play poorly, after all, with the basic salary, you can also contribute more than 20 points, can not ask for too much.
The aging of the lineup, the problem of physical strength will be exposed, you may think that the veteran can play 10-20 minutes per game, can play is able to play, the ability to react with young players is slower, the explosiveness is worse, and the hard work is worse. Young players can jump and jump, the whole field is running, the veteran's physical strength is difficult to keep up, the Lakers' defensive ability has declined, and the veteran's physical strength is very related. You may want to stick it up to defend, but your legs and feet slow down and you can't keep up. Caruso defended well, but was traded.
