Davis continues to be absent
The 37-year-old LeBron James, still the best player in the Lakers, led the team to defeat the Thunder with an unparalleled personal performance in the absence of Davis. Davis continues to be absent in this game against the Magic, but as long as LeBron James is there, everything is not a problem. Although the Lakers this season seem to be struggling, they still rank sixth in the West, and the Memphis Grizzlies in the fourth place in the West, only 2 wins away.
The Orlando Magic are the second-to-last team in the East, with just five wins so far this season and four consecutive defeats in recent times. From the ranking point of view, the Lakers won this game, there should not be much suspense, but this season, the Lakers can have a lot of upset games, so even if LeBron James is present, it still can't have the slightest carelessness.
Old Zhan talked about juvenile madness
Not surprisingly, the Los Angeles Lakers fell into a scoring drought in the first quarter, LeBron James only had 4 points and 2 rebounds on 2-of-4 shooting, Anderson had 2 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and when the team's two superstars performed so generally, the Lakers only scored 18 points in the first quarter, while the Magic scored 25 points. After returning from the second quarter, LeBron James began to exert his strength, with 7 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists in the single quarter, Wei Shao also had 6 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, and the Lakers bombed 31 points in the single quarter, and at the end of the half, they successfully narrowed the point difference to 3 points.
In the second half, LeBron James's performance is getting better and better, 5 of 7 shots, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 14 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists in a single quarter, and 2 blocks, and all are volleyball caps, the Lakers' strongest 3D, and it is indeed worthy of the name. Driven by James' offensive and defensive ends, the Lakers scored 36 points in a single quarter, and the Magic only scored 10 points. In the blink of an eye, the Lakers have a 23-point lead, there is only one section left, it can be said that the game has completely lost suspense, but the Magic team did not give up.
In the final quarter of the game, the young Magic team was unwilling to give up, they continued to narrow the point gap, there was no way, James could only lead the team on the court to stabilize the situation, personally took 5 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and successfully achieved a triple-double achievement. In the end, the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Orlando Magic 106-94 and successfully won two consecutive wins.
The Lakers' strongest 3D player
3 three-pointers, 3 blocks, or three-double data! James, you're not like a 37-year-old man. In such a game, LeBron James once again dominated the offensive and defensive ends, 12 of 20 shots, 3 of 7 three-pointers, and got 30 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists and 3 blocks, which made many people sigh, from the former first man in the league to the first 3D of the Lakers today, LeBron James, really does not look like a 37-year-old veteran. Of course, I have to thank the magic for not giving up, otherwise James would not have been able to achieve a triple-double.
As the second leader of the team, Wei Shao also has 19 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals, and the shooting rate of 9 of 18 shots, it is gratifying that there is not a single three-point shot in this game. Tucker Jr. also had 19 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists, while Anthony on the bench had 13 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks. On the Magic side, Wagner Jr. had 20 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, Carter Jr. had 16 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, and Cole Anthony had 21 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists.
