Not Wei Shao? Mingzui suggested that the Lakers send away the thick eyebrow brother! US media: The Lakers rely too much on James
Just when the outside world is desperately suggesting that the Lakers quickly send away Westbrook, "ESPN" celebrity Stephen Smith put forward a completely different view on the 14th, he instead suggested that the Lakers quickly trade "thick eyebrow brother" Anthony Davis in the offseason this year, the main reason is in the glass body of the thick eyebrow brother, the Lakers should take advantage of his still trading value to quickly send away.
"I don't want to say that, and I never lack respect for Anthony Davis," Stephen Smith said, "but I still have to say that the Lakers should send Anthony Davis away, he is still valuable, but he is 28 years old, his staying power is a question mark, and when he gets older, his injury problem will only get worse." ”
In fact, Stephen Smith's concerns are not unreasonable, because although Anthony Davis averaged 24.2 points, 9.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game during his three seasons with the Lakers, he missed 20 games in his first season with the Lakers, 36 games last season, and only played 57 games this season, and the thick eyebrow brother has missed 21 games.
Although Anthony Davis once won the 2019-2020 championship for the Lakers, but was absent in the first round of the playoffs last season due to groin injuries, but also let the Lakers be eliminated by the Suns in the first round in advance, and now the Lakers are more tight this season than last season, if the thick eyebrow brother is suffering from injuries, resulting in the Lakers can not even play the playoffs, the Lakers must indeed consider trading him out.
Although the Lakers lost the game, they only lost to the Warriors by two points, and even if they lost, it was not too uncomfortable, and LeBron James even said "it feels good" after the game. Russell Westbrook made 1 turnover on 7-of-13 shooting and shot 41 percent from the outside. It looks like James didn't score a last-minute free throw, or he would have a chance to win.
Head coach Frank Vogel said: "I'm disappointed we didn't win, but I saw a lot of good signs. He thinks the Lakers, who have stumbled this season, are now looking for the better, and the Lakers are still leading by 6 points in the last few minutes, but they are unlucky to be caught up.
James was still brave in the first 3 quarters, but in the 4th quarter he made 1 of 10 shooting, made three turnovers, and did not deliver any assists. Head coach Vogel thinks there is something wrong with the referee, there are a few balls James was fouled and did not sound the whistle, james is frankly admitting that he did not play well.
US media CBS pointed out that the current situation of the Lakers is worrying, because they are still too dependent on James in the situation of a more complete lineup. With Westbrook playing normally and Anthony Davis uninjured, james couldn't win as long as he didn't play well. And James is tired, but the other two main players can't help James share the pressure, so "relying too much on James will probably become the Lakers' cover." ”
After the end of this month's trading limit, head coach Vogel said that everyone is back in spirit and adjusting their mentality to pursue victory, "This is the team we formed at the beginning of the season, we believe in this team. ”
