The Lakers have won 2 straight!
It's not easy, it's really not easy, the Lakers can finally achieve a wave of small 2 consecutive wins. To say that the victory of these two games, the first contributor is definitely old Zhan. The soon-to-be 37-year-old Zhan has proven himself on the court again and again that he can still play, and in the last game against the Thunder, James contributed 33 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, and today again against the Magic, he contributed a triple-double of 30 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists and 3 blocks.
Especially today, the Lakers were still behind in the first half, but in the third quarter, James suddenly exerted his strength, relying on his own strength to take 11 points in a row to help the team gain an advantage, and since then, the emotions of the whole team have been mobilized by James. Tucker's performance during this period was also very eye-catching, he received two three-point shots from James' passes, coupled with consecutive steals and opponents to play counter-attacks, today he has become the most trusted helper around James.
In fact, after Tucker returned to play 3 good games, his performance has been very sluggish. Vogel insisted on letting him start, failed to shoot from the outside, and had a terrible choice on the pitch. Tucker's performance also made Vogel bear a lot of infamy, but fortunately he finally proved it once with his performance today.
19 points and 6 steals, plus-minus +14 tied for the team's highest as James. The Lakers renewed Tucker's contract with a three-year, 32 million contract in the offseason this year, that is, he is still very young, and he has proved that he is a player with certain potential. But Tucker's overall performance is a bit disappointing, he still needs to play to constantly hone himself, and the Lakers still have high hopes for him.
The deal with the Lakers was once again exposed after the Pacers' supermarket opened, with the Lakers reportedly interested in completing the Deal with Turner with the Pacers. But the Real Lakers really don't have any chips, and now in addition to the big three in the lineup, Tucker may be the only player with transaction value, and the rest are basically basically basically basic salary players.
If he continues to play such a performance in the next game, especially when he can play a key role against strong teams, then the Lakers will not give up on him, and if he is still in the doldrums, then he may sooner or later become a trading chip.
But to be honest, in today's Lakers lineup system, he is still more suitable for playing as a substitute. In the starting lineup, the Lakers already have Two Ball Points, James and Westbrook, and Tucker's role will be weakened. He can also hold the ball on the bench and can share the pressure of James or Westbrook.
Such a Tucker is really love and hate, for Vogel is really a big test, in the next game, whether the Lakers can make changes, everything waits and sees!
