The Lakers lost 114-117 to the Hornets on the road today.
James and Thick Brow both missed today's game, and although Westbrook exploded in the second half and scored 30 points, becoming the first Lakers player to cut 30+ in the half after Kobe, the Lakers eventually lost to the Hornets.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to Wei Shao, who scored a new season high of 35 points, the Other Four Starters of the Lakers did not score in double figures, adding up to only 22 points. However, the Lakers' bench lineup is more powerful today, with 3 people scoring in double figures, including Anthony 5 of 12 in the game, with 19 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.
Before today's game, Anthony's career total score was 27,981 points, and after scoring 19 points today, Anthony's career score just reached 28,000 points, becoming the second player in the active squad to reach the 28,000 points milestone.
For Anthony, the 28,000-point milestone is clearly coming too late. Remember, James has reached the 36,000-point milestone this season and will soon reach another 37,000-point milestone. By the end of the season, James' career total will be nearly 10,000 points ahead of Anthony.
In the future, James is still expected to score 40,000 points, and It is very difficult for Anthony to reach 30,000 points. Originally, Anthony was very promising to join the 30,000-point club, but unfortunately it had been delayed for more than a season, so it had only reached the 28,000-point milestone now, and there was little hope of reaching the 30,000-point milestone in the future.
This season, Anthony can average nearly 14 points per game, which is a good performance for a 37-year-old veteran, but compared to James, Anthony is a small witch. James is also 37 years old, but can average 29 points per game, more than twice as many as Anthony.
In this comparison, Anthony is dwarfed, of course, this is not anthony can not do, but he is unlucky to meet James. Before James, no player has ever averaged such a high average of 37 points per game, and Bryant averaged only 22 points per game at the age of 37.
