On March 19, Beijing time, Wei Shao's absolute three points obscured James's aura. But in fact, in a game with the Raptors, the Lakers' victory over Lao Zhan is also the key. In the game, Lao Zhan basketed 1 pick 5 scenes, which made people lament that Zhan Center was too strong.
In this showdown with the Raptors, James played 44 minutes, shooting 15-of-26, scoring 36 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 blocks. In the fourth quarter of the game, old Zhan broke out, scoring 16 points and 4 rebounds on 7-of-10 shooting.
In fact, the Lakers' five-small lineup is also the reason for James's outbreak, and the 37-year-old Zhan playing the fifth position is still unsolvable.
As Raptors coach Nas put it, "It's always difficult and complicated to plan a game against LeBron because he can do a lot on the offensive end, and first we have to address his threat in switching offense." LeBron plays fast attack like a freight train in motion, and you have to find someone to slow him down. ”
Unfortunately, no one in the Raptors could stop the 37-year-old Zhan Huang. There is such a scene in the game, the old Zhan backcourt with the ball to advance, facing the defense of raptor rookie Barnes, a back dribble past the opponent, kill to the basket, break through the basket, the first shot did not hit, however, James grabbed the rebound in the front court.
This time James faced the Raptors 5-man defense, the ball was up, quite tough, comparable to the peak shark, too horizontal.
James is now just 20 points away from second-place Karl Malone (36928) to complete the overtaking. For him now, scoring 20 points in a single game, still chopping melons and cutting vegetables, will this historic moment be staged tomorrow? If you don't take turns with your back to the Wizards, it's only a matter of time.
