Beijing time on December 13, the NBA regular season continued, in the absence of Davis, James led the team to win 106-94 at home to the Magic, achieved a wave of two consecutive wins, this is really not terrible to win, who is embarrassed! In the end, the Lakers are not in good shape, should we blame the thick eyebrows, according to the video posted by lakers assistant coach Phil Handy, we may really blame him.
Lakers media posted the contents of a meeting of the team's coaching staff, in which assistant coach Fei Er Handy mentioned the problem of the playing time of the No. 5 position of the thick eyebrow, he said: "Although there is no voice in the locker room about the long playing time of the thick eyebrow, but when the thick eyebrow is replaced every time, he will say that he is tired, and he will always say that he is too tired." ”
This season, the Lakers due to injuries and other reasons caused by the team's lineup is unstable, the team's state is also very bad, in this case many people have pinned their hopes on the thick eyebrows to play 5 small lineup system, but the result is not very obvious, because Davis's long-range shooting efficiency has a serious decline compared with the championship season.
Davis's average of 24 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3 assists, 1.3 steals, 2.2 blocks this season, shooting 52.3% from the field, overall looks good, but according to previous reports, Davis's three-point shooting rate is the worst among all players who have played more than 20 games in NBA history and averaged more than 2 shots per game; in addition, his mid-range shooting rate this season is the worst in the league, and his jump shot of 33.1% is also the worst in the league. Scoring just 0.73 points per jump shot is also the worst performance in the league. Because of The addition of Wei Shao, the Lakers need space more than ever, but at this critical moment, the thick eyebrows are pulled.
In view of this performance of thick eyebrows, Barkley and Perkins have stated: "Thick eyebrows should be the culprit of the Lakers' loss, because he is only 28 years old, and he has the talent of the top 5 in the league, but he has not fully realized his value." But is that really the case, and the Lakers now seem to be caught in a vicious circle of thick eyebrows. This season is the frequency and time of thick eyebrows to play 5 is a new career high, the Lakers want to win, forced to let thick eyebrows play 5, the result of the longer to play 5, the less efficient the thick eyebrows, the last two games are the most authentic portrayal. (Thick eyebrows can't be attacked, can't be defended, and the dunks in hand are covered by the Grizzlies 2 times)
As we all know, thick eyebrows are the league's famous glass man attributes, which is why the Lakers dare not let him play 5 for a long time, but now the team wants to win, there is really no other effective way, can only do this, and even let James play 5 cameo center. But the Lakers' current problem is not a thick eyebrow 5 can be solved, the outside line can not be prevented, always can not expect Davis to be alone in the inner line to put it, not tired to blame.
So, I think we should have a little more understanding, after all, he is a technical type, not the kind of blue-collar player, let him play the No. 5 position, it is really exhausting, and it will cause more challenges to his shooting.
