The Lakers, who are in trouble this season, lost to the Nuggets by 37 points in the last game, and the team's poor situation plus a big defeat has also made the Lakers continue to become the object of support and criticism by fans, media and insiders after the game.
Among them, the core James directly refused to accept the interview, and Westbrook and Howard spoke up successively, saying that the team did not play hard enough.
In response to this series of criticisms and supports, the Lakers core James publicly apologized, Wei Shao's younger brother also chose to speak out to support his brother, and the famous mouth said that the Lakers' fiasco was actually a good thing.
Shortly after the game, the well-known "Zhan Hei" Skip publicly said that it is difficult to imagine that the Lakers also had the league's first defensive efficiency last season.
James' current individual defensive efficiency is estimated to be outside the league's 200th, and he currently has only offense and no defense at all.
Parallelist Quame Brown criticized James for looking at the data list on the bench, and Brown said that when your team is experiencing a fiasco, what kind of message you are conveying to the players by looking at the data list on the bench, Bryant can never do this.
In response to a series of voices from the outside world, James also made a public voice shortly after.
James said he apologized to all Lakers fans and promised that the Lakers would get better.
Despite publicly apologizing to the fans, James's mood was clearly unaffected, and he also posted photos of himself sipping wine while watching TV on social media, during which the 4 championship trophies shone brightly.
While James publicly apologized, Wei Shao's younger brother openly complained about his brother.
In an open Lakers fan group, Wei Shao's younger brother personally went down to complain for his brother, saying that many things are like this, you think you know something, in fact, you don't know anything.
Then he said: "Brother, listen, I didn't disagree with you, I didn't disagree with anyone, but I'm not going to let you slander my brother here, it's never going to happen, I don't care who you are." ”
It is no wonder that Wei Shao's younger brother broke out, since joining the Lakers, Wei Shao has been criticized by the outside world.
In the past five games, Westbrook has averaged only 0.8 turnovers per game, including 3 of them with 0 turnovers, including against the Nuggets.
As a result, after the game, the outside world was still criticizing Wei Shao, and one of the Lakers fans directly sent Wei Shao a rap, saying that James had tried his best to transform the center, but Wei Shao's projection was still terrible.
In addition, Jorge Sedano, a local veteran sports journalist in Los Angeles, also publicly offered advice to Wei Shao when he participated in the show.
Jorge Sedano said that Westbrook played so badly, if he was the manager, he would definitely let Westbrook play as a substitute, he knew that Vogel would not do this, but when Westbrook performed relatively well, it was Westbrook with Howard, plus three goalscorers.
His partner then asked Jorge Sedano if he thought Westbrook would take the bench, and Jorge Sedano said he didn't think so, but he wanted to see a surprise, otherwise he would let James go early.
Although the outside world is generally criticizing the Lakers, the famous Shannon Sharpe has given a completely different line of thinking, believing that the Lakers' fiasco is a good thing.
After the fiasco, the Lakers no longer have to deceive themselves with health, lineup run-in and other issues, they need to honestly look for opportunities in the trading market, and Pelinka can justifiably start to act.
Shams then revealed that the Lakers plan to renew a 10-day contract with Stanley Johnson on Monday local time to ensure the flexibility of the team's lineup.
