After the game, Lakers coach Frank Vogel was interviewed, talking about the biggest feelings about LeBron James's excellent performance today, Vogel said: "That LeBron James, he really can play basketball, haha." I don't know, and the most salient point in my opinion is that the league has never seen a player who is in the current stage of his career do what he's doing. I think that's the point that needs to be recognized the most. The level of competition he played was incredible. After all these years, maybe having him play center is the best way to use him, because in the absence of AD (Anthony Davis), he is playing center position. He is willing to do whatever is necessary for the team to win. It was an incredible, incredible, epic performance from LeBron. ”

Speaking about not having Russell Westbrook on the field for most of the fourth quarter, Vogel said: "Russ had nine assists and one turnover tonight, and that was one of his biggest roles on the team, which was to be a guy who created shooting opportunities. He finished the character at a high level in this area, and he had a bad night in finishing, both under the basket and from the outside. The game is about sending in 5 players who can help you win. Those three guys (Malik Munch, Talran Horton Tucker and Austin Reeves) were playing super high, and on the defensive end we wanted Stanley (Johnson) on the court, and we sent those players to win, and there was no more reason. However, I also said that Russ had 9 assists and 1 turnover, and that was the performance we wanted from him. ”

Tucker played well in this game on 7-of-16 shooting, with 15 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists.

Speaking about turning around and turning over Kentavius Caldwell Pope to face Kyle Kuzma to complete the dunk, Tucker said: "It's great whenever I get the chance to do that. It's Kuz and KCP, and when I was a rookie, they always dunked over my head, so it felt great to face them in the game and get it back. ”

Tucker said he was going through a second-degree ankle sprain and was still able to feel the pain, but he struggled to overcome sticking to the ball because he knew the stage the team was at at the moment and I was still young and I still had a lot to learn but I felt like I could do something.

After LeBron James scored 50 points on a three-pointer against Kyle Kuzma, Tucker yelled at Kuzma, who said: "Actually, it's nothing, he just happened to be there. ”

Speaking about his assisting teammate LeBron James hitting a three-point shot to reach 50 points, Tucker said: "That's when I saw him constantly scoring, so I had to feed him the ball. It was the second time he had scored 50 points this season, and I just exclaimed, 'Depend! I looked up and sighed, 'I leaned in, he got 50 points!' When he was 47 points, I knew he was going to get 50 points, so I passed the ball to him and let him shoot that three-pointer. So witnessing that scene motivated me, as I've always said. ”

Westbrook's 5 points, 3 rebounds and 9 assists on 2-of-11 shooting in this game were disastrous, but the 9 assists allowed Westbrook to surpass Andre Miller (8524) in total career assists and rise to 11th all-time.

It is worth mentioning that in the last 8 minutes of the game, Westbrook was once again abandoned by Vogel, which is the fourth time that Vogel abandoned Westbrook in the closing stage of the season. According to statistics, when Wei Shao was placed on the bench in the closing stage this season, the Lakers' record was 3 wins and 1 loss.

Speaking about the performance of teammate LeBron James, Westbrook said: "When you find the form, you play the form, there is not much you can say or explain. ”

Speaking about the career assists ramping up to 11th all-time, Westbrook said: "It's a blessing to be able to play in the league for so long and achieve such an achievement. ”

Speaking about playing against old club Wizards, Westbrook said he was so grateful for that season at the Wizards, where he had a great exchange with Wizards players and staff today.

The biggest contributor to this game is undoubtedly James, who played 36 minutes and shot 18 of 25, including 6 of 9 three-pointers and 8 of 8 free throws, with 50 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 block.

In the past 3 games, James has scored 50+ 2 times. In the March 6 game against the Warriors, James scored 56 points. Only 2 players have scored 50+ 2 times this season, in addition to old Jan, the other is Celtic star Tatum.

Tatum is 24 years old, in the year of playing, and James is already 37 years old, and it is amazing to have such a performance. According to the US media StatMuse, this game made James the first player in NBA history to cut 50+ in a single season after the age of 35, and after this game, James led the league scoring list with an average of 29.71 points per game.

Speaking about the second half of the reversal to win, James said: "It's about improving vitality and paying more attention to detail in how to attack the Wizards. We did, especially in the third section. We conceded a lot of simple goals, but we kept fighting, we kept defending, and then I was able to get into the heat and complete a wave of scoring. ”

Speaking of his 12 points in the third quarter, James said: "It's just trying to stay there, the longer the better." I don't know if you're familiar with that game, NBA Jam, which has lines that say, 'He's so hot!' Sometimes you want to make a bad shot, and you have to be in that hot state to shoot. I just stayed in that zone for as long as I could and I was able to score a goal or two. ”

Speaking about his mother's presence at the game, James said: "She is my biggest supporter, the biggest inspiration to me, and the person I love the most. Being able to allow her to witness my career, so many sacrifices she has made for me on my way up, I can come to the current stage of life, and she can witness this, I always try to give back to her, in any way and form to give back to her. Tonight, it's an honor for me to be here to watch the ball. ”

Speaking about the performance of Lakers fans in the last two home games, James said: "It's a loyal fan of the Lakers, they know when you play bad basketball and when you play good basketball. We have a responsibility to play inspirational basketball on the court and play good basketball for these fans. They've seen so many great games over the years, too many great performances and too many great players, so I feel a great responsibility on my shoulders and in my heart. ”

Asked about his secret to cutting 50+ points twice in a week, James said: "I don't know, I just feel good. I just put in training every day, even on my days off, I always think about the game, watch the game. You also saw yesterday I tweeted, I was watching the Nets and the 76ers, I watched too many games. It's about keeping the main business, that is, focusing on this season, every game, every opponent, a little bit away from the game, but not completely out of the game.

"It's about always staying focused on the moment. When the match day came, I came here 5 hours before the race and started preparing. Be prepared for my personal things, ready for what I need to do to help this team win, ready to do everything I can possibly do within my means to help this team get to its best form that night. So, that's all there is to it. ”

Speaking about his rant at the end of the game to celebrate interacting with the fans on the sidelines, James said: "It felt great. Listen, Lakers fans know when to play bad basketball, and they know when to play good basketball. They have the right to give any response. At the end of the day, they've seen too many great teams, too many great individuals, too many great individual performances, and they've witnessed too many great events in the history of the team in this arena. Personally, as a member of this club, I just want them to have the opportunity to experience unforgettable nights as well, and try to give them something to cheer around every night, something to make them feel good. I know the team hasn't performed as well as they expected this season, but with a little win you'll certainly be happy to take it. ”
