On March 6, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued to unfold, and the West ushered in a focus battle, and the Lakers sat at home to meet the Warriors. Both teams have not been in very good shape recently, the Lakers have lost 4 consecutive games, the Warriors 3 consecutive losses, both urgently need a win to boost morale. Before the game, both teams made adjustments to the starting lineup, with the Lakers taking the initiative to change and the Warriors being forced to adjust.
In the last game against the Clippers, the Lakers discharged a big four small lineup, but this time facing the Warriors, they changed back to the five small lineups, James as the team center, the other four are Westbrook, Rivers, Johnson and Munch, this lineup is indeed short enough, it depends on whether it can bring miracles.
After suffering 4 consecutive defeats, the outside world called on Vogel to let Wei Shao serve as a substitute, but this plan did not appear, first of all, Wei Shao himself would not agree. Now they can only compete for the victory of the game with their current squad.
The Warriors' side of Peyton Jr. was injured and absent, Kerr had to be forced to adjust the starting lineup, this time he let Alto Porter start the game, did not send Poole, his recent state is a bit sluggish, Kerr is a little bit distrustful of him. The Warriors' starting lineup is: Curry, Thompson, Porter, Wiggins and Rooney.
There were injured absences on both teams in this game, and a total of 6 players did not qualify, the Lakers side of Davis and Nunn, and the Warriors are Green, Iguodala, Payton Jr. and Wiseman. In addition, neither Nunn nor Wiseman has played in the regular season for the team this season, and the two teams are still somewhat similar, except that the Warriors have better results and have not been too disturbed. But in today's game, both teams need a win, and if the Warriors lose, they will fall to third in the West, and the Lakers will fall to tenth in the West if they lose.
