On January 16, Beijing time, the Lakers played against the Nuggets, and the whole game ended with the Lakers losing to the Nuggets 96-133. It can be said that the Lakers lost this game or relatively injured, after all, for this game the Lakers still made a lot of preparations, while bringing Howard to the starting position is to let him limit jokic's play, but in the end the Lakers did not achieve such a thing, in the third quarter of the game the Lakers were broken by the Nuggets, the fourth quarter of the Nuggets are constantly expanding the lead, and finally the Lakers lost 37 points, creating the biggest score victory in the history of the Nuggets against the Lakers, it can be said that such a Lakers really suffered a humiliating defeat.
At the same time, the Lakers really do not have much resistance in the game, after all, in this game, the Lakers attack and defense are exploded at both ends, and the rookie Hyland is even more powerful in the game, which makes the Lakers have no temper at all, to know that the Nuggets are not in a good state this season, they have more than once in the game in the case of occupying a big score lead in the half, and the Clippers have just completed such a thing, compared to the Clippers Lakers no matter how there are james and Westbrook two stars, But the lakers' end result is a fiasco. At the same time, James also suffered ridicule after the game, after the game, Skip said on social media: James's Lakers have just suffered the worst loss of the season, losing to the Nuggets by 37 points in Denver. It's hard to believe that the Lakers ranked first in defensive efficiency last year and 17th this season. James' defensive efficiency is in the 200th place, and he's now all offensive and not a little defensive.
Well now James is seen as having no defense, and in this game James really didn't do that, but James is 37 years old, and when he performs on the offensive end, you can't ask James to still turn the tide on the defensive end, which is obviously too harsh for James. Although the Lakers lost the game, but Wei Shao's performance in this game is actually warmed up, he played more hard in this game, but now Wei Shao is not in the past, and the Lakers have not let Wei Shao completely do themselves, so Wei Shao's threat is also greatly reduced, and Wei Shao has 19 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists at the end of the game, and Wei Shao is also very dissatisfied after the game.
Westbrook said: Sometimes, we have to make the decision to play harder. Regardless of the team system and game plan, other teams just play harder than they do. Wei Shao said that when they play small ball, it is particularly important to play harder and tougher. He said they didn't do that tonight. Obviously, the Lakers are very dissatisfied with the performance of the Lakers on the court, thinking that the team did not do their best on the court, in fact, the Lakers did have too many problems on the court, and you can also see some frustration in the Lakers' game, after all, the taste of losing consecutively is not good, but if they do not make an effort, the Lakers are really difficult to get out of the current predicament.
After the game, Vogel also spoke out in frustration, Vogel said: Yesterday we were very well prepared for the Nuggets offense in training, but we were still defeated like this, which is frustrating. Obviously, when the Lakers were ready to lose the game, Vogel felt the situation at this time, but this is also no way to do things, this season's Lakers have become so bad. However, when the Lakers lose, there is still good news, originally the Clippers are expected to continue to chase the Lakers, but in today's game, the Clippers lost to the Spurs, so the Lakers' current position is temporarily safe, which is undoubtedly a good news for the Lakers who have suffered 3 consecutive losses.
