Post-match commentary
Apparently, the team-wide power outage against the Grizzlies on Tuesday night local time was an accidental event.
As the oldest team in the league, the Lakers' "old guys" quickly improved their form and found the good game they have maintained since mid-November.
In this game, the Lakers once again came up with a "19-20 season version of defense" in the third quarter, and the Magic defense only got ten points.
Although Davis was injured, the good form of the rest of the Lakers players made fans expect more.
James scored more than 30 points again and scored a triple-double, and the 37-year-old proved he was still the league's top star after his attendance was stable.
Youngster Tucker's state has also bottomed out, and the defensive problems that have been criticized for a long time are slowly improving.
Facing Doncic's Lone Ranger two days later, the Lakers will face another tough test after losing the Clippers.
Do you think the current Lakers can break their wrists with their opponents when facing playoff opponents?
