The NBA regular season continues, and the Nets play against the Lakers. After four intense quarters of play, the Lakers finally beat the Nets 106-96. Relative to the situation of the game, the media interview after the game has also become the focus of attention of the fans, and I will take you to understand the specific situation. Lake Net post-match news! Nash talks about the defeat, Vogel criticizes Davis, and Harden debunks rumors of leaving the team!
Due to Davis' comeback, the Lakers' big three finally fit together again. The showdown between the Lakers and the Nets was supposed to be the Big Three vs. the Big Three, but the Nets were caught in a passive situation. Since the game was played at home to the Nets, Irving was unable to play in this game, which also caused the Nets' offensive strength to decline significantly.
Coupled with Durant's absence due to injury, this means that Harden can only single-handedly lead the team to meet the Lakers' Big Three. It can be seen that the Nets are helpless to lose, and it is difficult for Harden to resist the Lakers' offensive attack no matter how strong he is. At the same time, Davis's comeback also boosted more confidence for the Lakers, and finally the Lakers became the last party to laugh as they wished.
So in the media interview after the game, what did the managers of both sides think about the game? First of all, let's look at the statement of Nets coach Nash, Nash talked about the reason for the Nets' loss, "We made too many mistakes when defending the conversion, so that the Lakers got too many points by converting offense. Meanwhile, Nash personally confirmed that Joe Harris had gone to Cleveland again for medical treatment, though he did not give details of his diagnosis.
Relative to Nash's statement, Lakers coach Vogel criticized Davis, "He (Davis) looks good, and those baskets will come back sooner or later." However, in this matchup, in addition to a few basket goals, he is a little out of sync with the team. ”
Vogel's statement is very clear, he first affirmed Davis's recovery state, and then criticized Davis for being a little out of sync with the team, which is also a reminder to Davis to speed up the integration into the tactical system and win more games for the Lakers.
Davis's performance in this game was decent, and in the 24 minutes of playing, Davis had 8 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 4 blocks on 3-of-8 shooting. Although the score is not in doubles, the importance of Davis can also be seen from the 4 blocks, and he can indeed provide sufficient protection for the Lakers' defensive end. I believe that with the increase in the number of games, Davis's state will also get better and better, depending on his ability to adjust next!
On the other hand, Vogel gave James a high evaluation and recognition, "Since the pre-game training, James' state has been very stable. He's done a great job on both ends of the floor, especially defensively, and he's playing really tough! ”
Vogel praised James for a reason, after all, James is the first contributor to the Lakers' wins. In the case of 34 minutes of playing, James had 33 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks on 14-of-21 shooting, making outstanding contributions to the team by "filling the data bar". The fly in the ointment is that James' three-point performance is somewhat sluggish, only 2 goals in 8 shots, but from the overall performance, James is still more effective than excessive!
Finally, let's look at the situation of basketball star Harden, who cut a triple-double stat with 33 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 steals and 1 block in this game. It is worth mentioning that in the 2 games between the Nets and the Lakers this season, Harden has scored 30+ triple-doubles. This also allowed Harden to achieve a milestone, that is, he became the first star after Chamberlain to win two 30+ triple-doubles against the Lakers in a single season, such an outstanding performance is indeed worthy of the praise of fans!
Previously, it was reported that Harden was unhappy with Irving and Nash, so he planned to leave the Nets this summer. In the media interview after the game, Harden debunked the rumors of leaving the team, "I don't know what report you are talking about, if you didn't listen to me personally say it (the rumor of leaving the team), it is just some report." In the end, Harden said he was frustrated because he wanted to win the game, but in the end he still swallowed the bitter fruit of the loss.
Overall, the two sides presented a wonderful basketball feast for the fans, and it is a pity that only Harden is the three giants of the Nets, and the fans cannot see the scene of the Lakers big three vs the big three of the Nets. Now that the Lakers have won the game, as for how the two sides will perform next, let's wait and see!
