The regular season has come to an end, and at present, the Lakers' record is 29-33, with a winning percentage of only 45%, ranking ninth in the West.
At the beginning of the season, the fans shouted the Lakers championship, and now, the fans began to worry about the Lakers, not to mention the championship, even the possibility of not winning the playoffs is increasing, if it is the worst result, did not enter the playoffs, then James is likely to choose to leave the Lakers, in order to compete for the championship, the Lakers almost all the young players can be traded, so the Lakers can not afford to lose, but now they can not win, which really makes the Lakers fans feel desperate.
The ranking of the West is very chaotic, the gap between the Lakers and the Pelicans, Blazers and Spurs behind them is very small, these teams may change their ranking positions at any time, the Lakers' main competitors in the playoffs are potential teams dominated by young players, they have a strong impact, and the Lakers are now exhausted, the physical strength of the players is insufficient, and there are serious problems such as injuries, it seems that Lakers fans must be prepared for the playoffs.
Today, the Lakers lost to the Pelicans by a big score, the point difference in the first half is not too big, and there is still some suspense in the game, but in the second half, the Pelicans began to have the advantage, and finally they won. Although James scored the highest score in the game and shot a high percentage, it was a pity that he made seven mistakes. After the game, James bravely took responsibility for the loss, he said that he has been trying to improve his ability, both offensive and defensive ends want to do their best, but unfortunately there are too many mistakes in this game, and these seven mistakes are not the elements of winning.
After the game, James scored more than 30 points in 500 career times, and only two players who scored more than him 30 points were Jordan and Chamberlain, and although James set a record, what awaited him was the voice of doubt and criticism.
If we just look at the data, you get a sense of how good James is, he has scored more than 20 points in 25 consecutive games this season, averaging 29 points per game, ranking 3rd in the league, averaging 36.7 minutes per game, ranking 4th in the league, and averaging assists and blocks per game in the top 30 of the league.
If the Lakers' results are good, then James may become the most valuable player in the regular season, the result is just the opposite, good data can not help the team win, James is not perfect, welcome to comment, talk about where James is wrong, where is the difference?
The Lakers now have a lot of thorny problems, so it is not the fault of James alone, this season, they have played sixty games, at present, no player has maintained full attendance, the player who has played the most times is Westbrook, but his state is really difficult to say, and another superstar Davis frequently misses the game due to injury, it can be said that the injury problem has been with him since the beginning of the season.
The Lakers players are a bit demoralized right now, and I think this team should seek to change, be prepared to lose superstars like James, find some young players who can be cultivated, and rebuild the determination to start over. The Lakers' subsequent opponents are the Lone Rangers, Clippers, Warriors and Spurs, the Lone Rangers have been in good shape recently, the Clippers and Spurs are competing for playoff qualification, so they are eager to win, and the Warriors urgently need a victory to prove their strength, it can be said that the Lakers are fierce, and they may continue to lose consecutively to face strong opponents recently.
