Facing the bitter Grizzlies, the Lakers have been in a state of backwardness and catching up, and the lack of five consecutive wins has become a foregone conclusion, and finally lost to their old opponents by 8 points at home. The Grizzlies can now be said to be the Lakers' nemesis, at least in terms of momentum, they can win once they see each other. In this game, the future first man Morant showed his super bouncing ability in front of James, and made staps stadium silent with a block that no one could match. James, a 37-year-old man, must be unwilling, but he is powerless.
Because the Lakers' five main players are only him to play normally, James once again played as a center, before he was a center, the Lakers were the winning side, and James's data is quite gorgeous, this game is no exception, easily got a quasi-triple-double with 35 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists. But James was somewhat out of balance and affected his teammates' play, which happened in the second quarter of the game, and the Grizzlies played best Bain intentionally or unintentionally physically rubbed with the strong James after scoring.
James pushed Bane angrily, and the two quickly went into reciprocal spray mode, but both sides were able to restrain their fists. This vignette shows that James is suffocating, and Bane's daring to provoke James is a source of self-confidence. In the whole game, Bane scored 23 points, which is the biggest contributor to the Grizzlies. As for the Lakers' loss, it is That James lacks helpers, the main players are collectively powerless, and on the bench, the best partner Munch only has 7 points, but contributed 3 blocks.
The most disappointing thing is Still Westbrook, with his scoring ability, double-digit scoring is easy, but now two consecutive games can not score in double figures, but his number of shots is really quite a lot, the game reached 12 times, the only surprise is that finally there is no mistake. Westbrook's stats are only 6 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, while his successor Morant has 16 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, and the difference in scoring is the winner and loser.
Thankfully, the Lakers' next game is played three days later, and the opponent is only the Kings, and there is definitely enough time to make adjustments. If there is no accident, James can still get 30+ points, you know, he is the player who has scored more than 30 points this season, and I believe that he has the opportunity to surpass Durant and get the scoring king again.
