The Lakers defeated the Suns
I thought it was a duel that everyone was looking forward to, but I didn't expect that after the first quarter of the game, the winner or loser of the game had basically lost suspense. In the last game, Old Zhan scored 50 points to help the team defeat the Wizards, Vogel was very confident in choosing to let Old Zhan play center, today facing the Suns, such a lineup was directly destroyed by the opponent, they lost 48 points in the first quarter of the game, and they scored a total of 22 points...
Judging from the situation on the court, the Lakers basically did not have the strength to fight back, and it was this season that the Lakers lost patience, and even Su Qun directly said: "A team like the Lakers is not worthy of entering the playoffs." The Lakers, who formed the Big Three last summer, are now in a very bad situation, they can't see any hard work in them, and it seems that in the face of a strong team like the Suns, they have long chosen to give up.
31+7+6
This is the data handed over by James in the whole game today, it is still very gorgeous, but the team has suffered a fiasco. Every time the team loses, Old Zhan has the name of carrying a data brush. It's a bit too harsh for a 37-year-old player, and the Lakers' roster is a big problem, and it's not a one-man responsibility.
To play a big lineup, there is only one Warcraft in the center position now, and his competitive status has also declined significantly compared with when he first joined the Lakers. To play a small lineup, the Lakers' outside line is not absolutely certain, and most players are unbalanced offensively and defensively.
As Yang Yi said, the Lakers' lineup is deformed, Tucker can defend and the offensive end is extremely unstable, melon and Munch can shoot, but there are big problems in defense, Wei Shao has not found a sense of play this season, basically lost his position and sense of existence on the court, coupled with injured thick eyebrows, this Lakers is not old Zhan alone can solve the problem.
The first 3+1+1 in NBA history
Today, Old Zhan's assists exceeded 10,000, which means that he became the first player in NBA history to have 30,000 points, 10,000 rebounds and 10,000 assists. It is worth mentioning that this season's old Zhan is still at the top of the league scoring list, as far as the current situation of the Lakers is concerned, the old Zhan is really better to let go and play more beautiful data, because don't talk about the championship first, because the Lakers want to enter the playoffs.
First of all, the current Lakers are in the ninth place, on the good side, in the end they enter the playoffs with this rank, the first round is likely to face the Pelicans, the Lakers may still have some certainty. Even if they pass the Pelicans level, the Lakers will most likely face a loser between the Timberwolves and the Clippers.
These two teams are almost a nightmare for the Lakers, especially this season they were swept by the Clippers, and the Clippers have a lot of uncertainty, in the end of the season if the small card and George come back, their strength will be greatly improved, for the Lakers the probability of losing is very large, even if it is facing the Timberwolves, the Lakers are also in the inferior position.
Taking a step back, the Lakers are barely entering the playoffs, and they also have to face such a strong opponent of the Suns in the first round, and judging from the situation of today's two-side game, the Lakers have no hope. Maybe this season's Lakers are also like this, as a reporter broke the news before, many Lakers players and even coaches have an idea of finishing the season as soon as possible. The situation of the Lakers is not fundamentally solved by relying on one person, perhaps Old Zhan Zhen can adjust the direction as soon as possible and work hard towards his own 411 project again, because you don't need to prove anything anymore...
