Did the Lakers lose to the Trail Blazers? The Lakers, who did not have Wei Shao, were reversed by the remnant Blazers. Who's going to carry the pot?
James scored a game-high 30 points, but the fatal misstep dashed hopes of victory. In this game, the Lakers shot 8.2% higher than the Blazers, 14.6% higher three-point shooting, and 8 people shot more than 50%. And the Lakers defended well against Blazers Simmons in the first half, making it only 4 points. But in the second half, Simmons scored five three-pointers and slashed 24 points. The main reason is that the Lakers have 10 more turnovers (21) than the Blazers (11). The whole team passed the ball too lightly, especially in the last 1 minute and 56 seconds of the game, the Lakers only trailed by 2 points, and when counterattacking, in the case of 2-1, James passed the ball too easily, was cut off by Dennis Smith, and then Simmons hit a three-pointer. With fewer mistakes, the Blazers wouldn't have had a chance to reverse. In the end, the Lakers lost by 2 points.
