Since January 9, the Lakers have not won a straight game, and this team that we have high hopes for has reached the point where it is difficult to win.
Yesterday, the Lakers narrowly beat the Raptors through overtime, and today, they play back-to-back, encountering opponents who are wizards, and in the end, the Lakers did not maintain a winning streak and lost this game. This season, the Raptors and Wizards are not doing well, and they did not rank in the top six, indicating that these two teams are not strong.
The Lakers and Raptors entered overtime this game, the game process was very intense, James and Westbrook played more than forty minutes, they are the team's winning heroes, however, these two players are already thirty-year-old veterans, they did not get a break to play the second game, today, James and Westbrook played more than thirty-five minutes again, the score also reached twenty points, shooting more than fifty percent, they have tried their best, but unfortunately their teammates helped too little, In the end, I didn't get the desired results.
Although the Lakers' ranking has not changed, it is still in ninth place in the West, but the gap with the team behind them has narrowed, and whether they can participate in the playoffs is still full of suspense. Davis has gone into shooting training and his recovery from injuries is ideal, so we have reason to expect him to return to the game in the near future, and if the Big Three gather, the Lakers' chances of winning will be greatly increased.
The regular season has come to an end, almost no team can maintain full health, so injuries should not continue to be an excuse for losing, the Lakers are the same, should find a way to improve their own strength, although James maintains the strength of the league's top superstars, but age is a hidden danger that we can not ignore, only the formation of a strong team, winning will be easier. If the Lakers want to enter the playoffs and even achieve the goal of winning the championship, they can't rely on James alone, and other players have to stand up. The good news is that Westbrook has found the feeling that the last two games are in excellent form, and Davis is about to return, and if all three players can maintain their career averages, the Lakers have the strength to beat their opponents.
Although the Lakers did not defeat the Wizards, but this game is not without gains, James got the highest score in the game, his career regular season total score exceeded Malone, rose to the second place in the historical scoring list, at present, James's front is only Zhang Jabbar a player, after the game, James accepted an interview with the media, he said that playing basketball in his own way, success will come naturally, as long as he works hard to play every game, he will complete great achievements and become the scoring king of history. If the Lakers had a better record, James would have a chance to be the most valuable player in the regular season this season, because his statistics are too good, ranking second in the league in points per game, and averaging rebounds, assists, steals and blocks per game are also in the top thirty, which can be described as an all-round performance of James.
Behind the glamour is countless sweat, James minor injuries can not get into the line of fire, he went to the game after receiving treatment, now his body is not in the best stage, small injuries continue to plague him, but he overcame these, in order to help the Lakers into the playoffs, James fought. Now there is only one option to stick to, the Opponents the Lakers will encounter behind are not weak, to the point of no mistake, I hope the Lakers will not disappoint the fans who support them, at least can enter the playoffs.
