As the season's regular season draws to a close, the Los Angeles Lakers are still teetering on the edge of the playoffs. At the beginning of the season, under great pressure, one veteran after another has entered the end of his career, and the Lakers have not been able to become a big winner in this big gamble. Sitting on the title-winning Big Three doesn't work, Anthony Davis triggered the glass attribute and returned to the injury seat, and the team, led by Old Jan and Westbrook, failed to play a famous role. But since marching into March, we've seen LeBron James back in his prime.
In that game against the Golden State Warriors, Old Jenn scored a crucial 56 points and led the team to a rare victory. In the game against the Washington Wizards, old Zhan once again played the full strength of Zhan's technical level, once again handed over the key 50 points, leading the team to complete the final reversal. While we are happy for James to return to the top, we also have to worry about his health. Yes, I'm afraid this is old Zhan's last stubbornness in the Los Angeles Lakers! And this game, the elder Jan pulled the team to Phoenix, away to challenge the Suns.
At the beginning of the game, the Lakers suffered a crazy blow from the Suns. James made 3 of 7 in the first quarter, sending 7 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist did not work, and Wei Shao also had 7 points and 1 rebound data and did not help the team, once allowing the Suns to play a 48-22 score, taking a 26-point lead in one fell swoop. The opening game gave the Los Angeles Lakers a downward spiral, and the Suns really deserved to be the number one team in the league. However, after entering the second quarter of the showdown, the Lakers also made a corresponding counterattack. Old Jan scored points by creating fouls and constantly free throws, sending out 8 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists.
Munch, meanwhile, also had 100 percent shooting in the quarter, contributing 8 points and 2 rebounds. With the continuous efforts of the players in the team, the Lakers successfully played a 34-31 score, recovering the three points behind in the first half. After the first half of the game, the Suns still held a 23-point lead with a score of 79-56. Judging from this situation, the Suns are bound to win the game. And YiBian fought again, and the Suns, who maintained the lead in the score, could also follow the trend and further widen the point difference between the two sides.
In the third quarter, Devin Booker handed over 10 points, 3 assists and 1 steal to lead the team to a 40-34 score and a six-point lead. By the time the crucial final showdown was made, the point difference between the two sides had reached 29 points, and the rest of the game time had lost its meaning. The Lakers chose to concede defeat in advance, starting five tigers and three quarters to clock out of work, and the Suns failed to kill people, and also sent rotating players to consume the remaining game time. In the end, the remaining garbage time was gone, and the Suns finally finished with a 140-111 score and a 29-point victory.
James clocked out of work in the third quarter and still delivered a game-high score of 31 points, as well as 7 rebounds and 6 assists in the 30 minutes of playing. Moreover, with the assists sent in this game, James also broke through the 10,000 assists of his career, becoming the first player in NBA history to get 30,000 points, 10,000 rebounds and 10,000 assists! But sadly, on james's milestone night, the Lakers suffered a 29-point defeat. After losing this game, the Lakers will drift away from the playoff stage.
