Although the Lakers have no game today, their ranking has dropped, this is because the Pelicans play a game, and won, the Lakers are currently in the tenth place in the West, has stood on the cliff, the Spurs behind them are also looking at the tiger, the competition for playoff qualification is very fierce, the Lakers will not be able to make the playoffs continue to increase.
The Lakers' recent results are very bad, after the beginning of January, they have not won a streak, during which the Lakers did not meet with a strong opponent, but still a win is difficult to find, indicating that they lack the capital to win, the regular season has been carried out to the second half, and then the opponents who met the Lakers are very strong, and the playoff situation is very unfavorable to them. If we only look at the lineup, the strength and popularity of Lakers players have a strong advantage, they have no reason to miss the playoffs with the big three, but one plus one plus one is less than three, the fact makes the fans who support them very sad and helpless, the worst result is that the season ends early, then the Lakers will face the option of rebuilding, and it is not realistic to expect existing players to change their fate.
Former basketball player Oakley, who participated in the recording of the show, talked about james' future, and Oakley believes that James should leave the Lakers in order to win the championship again, and the Suns and Philadelphia are his best bets.
Facts have proved that the current Lakers team has no potential, lack of young players, the other two superstars also have a lot of hidden dangers, Davis is injured, the attendance rate is very low, Westbrook's state decline is serious, now has not been well integrated with the team, can only rely on James alone, not enough to achieve good results in the playoffs, now the league is a double core, or even the era of the big three, the competition is the depth of the lineup, so James and the Lakers for their own interests, it is likely to choose to break up.
The Suns are an option that James can consider, this young team has grown up, the results of the last two seasons are very outstanding, Booker and Ayton have improved significantly, after the Finals honed, the experience has also improved a lot, and Paul's age is not small, James is paul's most suitable replacement. At present, the Suns are in the first place in the West, with a winning percentage of more than 80 percent, and they are the best team in this season, if James can successfully join here, then the Suns will be in the water.
This season, James' performances and stats are very beautiful, and although he is in the middle of his career, his ability is still very strong, so his goal is to win the championship. James has not said anything for the time being, he waits and sees, and I think whether he can enter the playoffs will determine whether James stays with the Lakers.
