On January 24, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued. The Los Angeles Lakers visit Miami, which is where James won the first crown in his career, or full of memories. The last game beat the Magic and gave the Lakers a good start to their 6-game streak. However, the heat's strength is far beyond the Magic team, and it is naturally difficult for the Lakers to win.
As expected, the Lakers eventually lost. A total of 19 points trailed their opponents in the first three quarters, and although they played a 37-24 attack wave in the final quarter and recovered 13 points, it did not help. James played 39 minutes and 52 seconds, shooting 12-of-22, but with 1-of-8 three-pointers and 33 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, he still couldn't lead the team to win. After losing to the Heat, the next game will be more difficult, the Lakers 2 consecutive losses? Zhan Huang was angry about losing, and the thick eyebrows urgently returned to the Nets, and Wei Shao fought Harden.
Zhan Huang was angry at the loss
Recently, James was pulled into the "empty slash group" and became the oldest empty cut group owner. Especially in the first 2 days of the game against the Pacers, in the last 4 seconds of the game, he also chose to score 2 points on the basket, which was considered by the fans to be the "brush group master". So when you lead a team without results, everything seems to be wrong.
After losing to the Heat, James seemed angry and said: In the fourth quarter we played the kind of basketball we wanted to play, and we executed the tactics better, but the pit we dug before was too big, too big! Losing to an opponent by 19 points in the first three quarters, or at the home of the Heat, it is extremely difficult to turn the tables over. Playing nearly 40 minutes, having 33 points and 11 rebounds, and playing the No. 5 position all the time, James really tried his best. So, the Lakers still ended up losing, how can James not be angry? Management really has to plan it out.
Thick eyebrows urgently returned to the Nets
In the face of the current situation of the Lakers, James's anger, The state of Westbrook, and the thick eyebrows really need to make an emergency comeback, and cannot continue to recuperate. According to the famous Dave McMenamin, the probability of a comeback in the Heat's game is 50%. However, for health and safety reasons, Vogel arranged for him to continue the truce.
However, due to the crisis of the situation, thick eyebrows need to contribute. Just today, according to marc Stein, Lakers star Thick Eyebrow will return as early as Wednesday Beijing time against the Nets. Not surprisingly, the Lakers' big 3 will be integrated, and Westbrook, James, and Davis will join forces to fight with the Nets. Due to Durant's injury absence, Irving was unable to play at home, and the Nets only had Harden left. The probability of the Lakers winning is still very large.
Westbrook vs Harden
In this game, Wei Shao and Harden met again, and the private feelings of this pair of Los Angeles boys who grew up were still very deep. But how similar the two players are this season: in poor form, more turnovers, less scrap, and expected to leave this summer. It's even said that the data for both of them is similar.
Westbrook averaged 18.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.8 assists and 4.1 turnovers per game, shooting 43.7 percent from the field and 29.6 percent from three-point range. Ha averaged 22.7 points, 8 rebounds, 10.1 assists and 4.8 turnovers, shooting 41.9% from the field and 33.8% from three-point range. When the second brother and the third brother meet, who can lead the team to win? But there is a point, if Wei Shao plays extremely badly, the Lakers are likely to suffer 2 consecutive losses, why do you say so? Thick eyebrows have just returned, and there will definitely be a time limit for playing. At the same time, the comeback of thick eyebrows will change the way the whole team plays, and once it does not enter the rhythm, the Lakers may be a fiasco.
The Lakers lost today, the Nets lost, and the Timberwolves on the road. Harden was in a slump, shooting 4-of-13 from the field and 1-of-4 from three-point range, with 13 points, 5 rebounds, 13 assists and 6 turnovers. Irving was in a heroic state, shooting 11-of-20 and scoring 30 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists. Unfortunately, the game against the Lakers was played at home, and Irving could not play. If Harden is still in this state, the Lakers will not be 2 consecutive losses, but the Nets 2 consecutive losses.
