Recently, the Los Angeles Lakers have fallen into a very bad situation, not only their performance is not good, the number of injuries has increased, and there are more obvious contradictions in management.
A few days ago, the Lakers' meritorious name Jerry West was canceled from the lifetime season ticket, which was what the Lakers owner Buzz promised him before he died. The reason why West was cancelled by the Lakers for a lifetime season pass is mainly because the Lakers' management has a more serious conflict with him, and the two sides have torn their faces.
In addition, the biggest problem with the Lakers is James' injury. From beginning to end, the Lakers have not stopped injuries this season, and Anthony Davis and James have both been injured. When Davis was on a knee injury for more than a month, James topped the starting center position at the age of 37, which consumed a lot.
Not long after Davis returned, James could not hold back, directly injured, and has missed about 4 games so far. After James's injury, the Lakers' record plummeted again, and it was difficult to win. Obviously, this Lakers team can be less than anyone, that is, not less James.
However, James does not have a clear comeback time now, and he is very anxious to see the Lakers suffer consecutive defeats and slip the ranking to the 9th place in the Western Division. Related questions, many reporters have also asked lakers coach Vogel, Vogel can only say that James is trying various treatment methods, hoping to usher in a comeback as soon as possible.
Apparently, James is also older and recovering from injuries is not as easy and fast as it was when he was younger. At present, if the Lakers still can't hold their ground and ask James to come back early, then it will only be a vicious circle, leaving more serious injury hidden dangers. Today's Lakers and James really can't stand the toss.
