On February 28, Beijing time, the Lakers played at home against the Pelicans, and the Lakers lost to the Pelicans 95-123. In fact, this game fans for the Performance of the Lakers are still very much looking forward to, after all, although the Lakers lost to the Clippers in the last game, but they once played a good performance in the game, and now against the weaker Pelicans Lakers have every opportunity to win the game, but the performance in this game is surprising, they frequently made mistakes in the first half of the game, if it is not the Lakers' defense and the Pelicans' offense is not good, then the Pelicans have every chance to completely open the score, It's just that the Lakers still made mistakes in the second half of the game, and in the end, the Pelicans did not miss the opportunity to completely open the score.
Although James finally got 32 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, but after the game, James was questioned a lot, after all, many of James's points were obtained after the Pelicans completely pulled away the score, and the Lakers had limited help for the team when they were behind, and even James's mistakes on the court gave the Lakers a lot of damage, and more importantly, James's attitude on the court was questioned, so when James made mistakes, the Lakers' home fans also booed. Obviously very dissatisfied with James's performance in this game, the Lakers' next schedule is very difficult, and now the Lakers can not win the game that should be won, which is obviously a huge blow to the Lakers, now don't say whether the Lakers can play in the playoffs, with their current performance can play in the playoffs will become a question.
But after this game, James responded to the playoff questions, and when asked if he was still looking forward to the playoffs, James said: "At the moment, my concern is how we can get better today. After crossing out today, it is to care about tomorrow and Tuesday. Just caring about how we play better on Tuesday, the Lone Ranger's recent performances have been great. We had a tough schedule, first the Lone Rangers, then the Clippers on Thursday, and the Warriors on Saturday. We have 10 more away games in March. So our situation is not going to get any easier. Obviously, now James also understands the situation of the Lakers, especially if the Next Schedule If the Lakers can't stop their decline, then the Pelicans and Blazers behind it are really possible to overtake the Lakers, and this is obviously not an acceptable thing for the Lakers, after all, it can't win the championship, even if it can't even score in the playoffs, then the Lakers will inevitably face huge adjustments in the offseason.
As for the Lakers' current problem, Wei Shao is even more blunt, and Wei Shao said that until the Lakers all team began to play hard, otherwise this situation will continue. Throwing or losing is part of the game, but we just don't try to play. For the Lakers' current performance Wei Shao is obviously not satisfied, after all, you are not allowed to shoot on the court is a thing, but the current Lakers are not only inaccurate in shooting, it is obvious that the current Lakers are not morale, their fatigue on the court does not even make fans feel that the Lakers are giving up this season, so Wei Shao should also remind the Lakers that if they can not wake up in time, it will be difficult to win. Howard also spoke directly about this: we must have a positive attitude. It's easy for people to give up, concede defeat, and say something negative. I really don't know what to say. But we have to say something positive. We can't sulk in failure, nor can we give up on each other.
In fact, for the current situation of the Lakers, I believe that the inside of the Lakers has been felt, their performance on the court is obviously not good enough, James here is a problem not to say, in the game Munch's performance is not as good as before, Anthony has just returned to the state of instability can be understood, but in such a situation the Lakers need to play better. Therefore, in the next game, if the Lakers want to win, first of all, James must play the momentum that should be there, Wei Shao needs to play more reasonably, and more importantly, Anthony, Munch and other players need to stand up in the game to help the team, otherwise the lakers' prospects this season are really bleak.
