On December 20, Beijing time, 110-115, the Lakers lost again, and James's performance in the last moments caused a hot discussion. James's limelight in the last quarter was completely overshadowed by DeRozan, and he thought that he was a big mountain in front of his opponents.
Let's take a look at DeRozan's performance in the last quarter, which deRozan played 8 minutes and 30 seconds, and the unsolvable mid-range became his biggest killer. He scored 19 points on 7-of-11 shooting throughout the fourth quarter, all seven goals were two-pointers, including a counter-ball shot against James in the final moments of the game.
James, on the other hand, had 6:48 left in the fourth quarter when he hit a layup, his last athletic goal of the game. In the following game, James actually made 0 shots, and all 4 points he scored came from free throws.
Scrambling for rebounds first created Green's foul, two free throws and two shots. After that, the shot was fouled by the ball brother, and two free throws were made twice. Since this shot was fouled, the official statistics do not count as shots.
In the following games, James was constantly passing the ball, but either the passing mistake was out of bounds, or the teammates hit the iron, and the result was that the Lakers failed. As the team's number one star, James passed far more than shots in the last minute and also caused a hot discussion.
Some fans complained about James, "Have gone to the low back to play back the ball, not even half of the level of Kobe And Jordan, the key moment, that is the pass, if Jordan or Kobe face the defense of the ball brother, they will eat him alive." ”
