On January 17, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. In recent times, the Lakers have been the focus of fan and media criticism. After yesterday's loss to the Nuggets, the Lakers have suffered three straight losses, and the record has become 21-22, ranking 7th in the West.
Earlier today, former Lakers player (2001 NBA draft pick) Kwame Brown took aim at James on the show, arguing that James shouldn't be looking at his stats during the game. Kwame Brown said: "When I saw James looking at the datasheet during the game, I understood why the Lakers were losing and why they weren't defending. Since I started playing in high school, all the coaches in the world have been able to prove it — whether it's high school, college or any other league, they don't allow players to look at the data sheets during the game, especially when the team is losing. ”
Kwame Brown continued, "What can a datasheet teach you? Nothing. I'm pretty sure that after we lose the game, I'm never going to let any player on the team bus touch the data sheet, we've already lost, what do we know when we look at the data sheet xxx (Brown exploded)? I'm not going to question the way James plays, he's a great player and he's still making history. But his move to look at the datasheet sends the wrong message to people. It's really too bad that all players shouldn't follow suit, and Bryant will never do it. ”
In addition, Kwame Brown also accused the Lakers of not shooting too many three-pointers, and bluntly said that Howard's situation with the Lakers was pitiful.
So far this season, James has averaged 36.7 minutes per game and has averaged 28.9 points, 7.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.6 steals, 1.2 blocks, shooting 51.9% from the field and 36.2% from three-point range. He's ranked second in the league in points per game, and it's no surprise that James will overtake Abdul-Jabbar in the coming seasons to become the NBA's all-time leading scorer.
