Thick eyebrows hurt again, how many times have I heard the news of thick eyebrow injuries! In today's Lakers and Timberwolves game, Thick Brow was rested in the first quarter of the game because of an ankle injury, and in the third quarter, he was unintentionally knocked down by Timberwolves center McDaniels and injured again, and this injury also directly led to the Lakers' rout! On the way back to the locker room, the thick eyebrows even fell on the way back to the locker room, and experts predicted that the cruciate ligament was injured. The final examination results showed that the injury of the thick eyebrow was a knee contusion, and although it was not a major problem, it was still unable to play for a short time!
Last year in the playoffs against the Suns, thick eyebrows once strained the groin in a breakthrough layup, originally the Lakers 2-1 lead of the good situation, because there is no thick eyebrows, directly lost three games in a row, the Lakers were eliminated in the first round! Last season's failure allowed Jenny Bass in the offseason to make a major overhaul of the team, introduce Westbrook, and form the Big Three, originally thinking that the Lakers would become a favorite to win the championship.
But at present, the Lakers' record is lamentable, and the Lakers only rank sixth in the West with 16 wins and 14 losses, behind the Clippers without Leonard. And the eighth lone ranger in the West is only 2 wins away from the Lakers, not to mention that the Lakers have won the championship, and I think the playoffs are all problems now! They lost important role players such as Kuzma, Pop, Harrell and so on because of the westerweight, and Caruso and Schroeder also left in the offseason, and a bunch of old and sick people came! Now, the thick eyebrows are injured, the glass attributes have erupted, and the Lakers are less fierce!
James has been on his way to catching up with Jordan, currently 4 championships, and after losing his chances to win last season, James surpassed Jordan even more slimmer! You know, now that James is 37 years old, how many seasons remain at the peak? If you want to surpass Jordan, you must win 2 championships in the next 3 years, but with the Lakers' current lineup, can the Lakers do it? The Lakers' current shortage of major generals, the core injury problem, the problem of Westbrook and James running in, as well as the problem of the team's weak front, and even the problem of Vogel, will become an obstacle to winning the championship!
But the biggest obstacle is still the thick eyebrows, which are the core of the Lakers today, and even surpass James to become the top player of the Lakers. The average offensive output per game is 25+10+3, and the defense has become the team's gate! Without thick eyebrows, the Lakers' No. 5 problem still exists, Howard and Jordan Jr. can not shoot three points, and the space problem will further compress Wei Shao's contribution! It can be said that there is no thick eyebrow, today's Lakers interior line is very congested, opponents can be desperately contracted, and the Lakers themselves do not have stable pitchers such as Pop and Danny Green, then the Lakers' problem is very big!
Let the Lakers enter the playoffs, if the Lakers and James and Wei Shao play normally, or even play beyond the norm, but the Lakers' shortcomings can still not be solved, and the Lakers will not go far. As a result, James's victory is getting farther and farther away. The Lakers will make big changes in the next offseason, the author feels that Westbrook is likely to be disposed of, the Lakers have to rebuild again, and have to re-adapt to new players, and James is a year older, the author feels that James is getting farther and farther away from the fifth crown! Even in the few seasons that have not won the championship, James's historical status may decline.
The author feels that after the end of James's career, the career championship will stay in the fourth crown, and it is impossible to surpass Jordan! And this also opened up the possibility for others to surpass James later. At present, the alphabet brother is only 27 years old, at the peak, the author feels that if the next alphabet brother wins three championships, it is not impossible to surpass James; KD currently has two championships, if Irving returns, the next two seasons KD also has the possibility of winning the championship, the author feels that KD also has the possibility of surpassing James, you know, today's KD is only 33 years old; even Curry, if Curry gets two more championships and gets FMVP, the author feels that there is also a possibility of surpassing James. All of this depends on the injury of the thick eyebrows, if the thick eyebrows are the body of the Pelicans period, or the body of the Lakers in the first season, then the Lakers still have the possibility of winning the championship. James, too, retained hope of surpassing Jordan!
