On April 2, Beijing time, the Pelicans beat the Lakers 114-111 to win three consecutive wins, the Pelicans have stabilized the ninth place in the West, they played the first round of the playoffs became inevitable, and the Lakers after this game is already the tenth in the West Spurs to open a win difference, the Lakers may not even be able to participate in the first round of the playoffs.
In this game, LeBron James once again took 30+ data, 13 of 23 in the whole game, 3 of 8 from three points, 9 of 12 from the free throw line, 38 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal, shooting 56.5%, three-point shooting rate of 37.5%, in the third quarter of 21 points, 2 rebounds and 1 steal to help the Lakers play, the Lakers once led by 6 points in the last quarter but finally Davis was 5 of 1, James 4 of 1 buried the game.
The only good news after this game may be that James's average score per game has increased to 30.27 points per game, which is 0.16 points more than Alphabet Brother and 0.27 points more than Embiid.
James has 1695 points in 56 games, 1897 points in 63 games, and Embiid 1890 points in 63 games, and James needs two more games to lock up the scoring champion seat.
The oldest scoring champion in NBA history is Jordan 35 in the 1997-98 season, if James wins the leading scorer at 37, then he will set the first record in NBA history, and James 37 is the leading scorer who averages 30+ per game, such a record is very difficult.
But this may also fall into the handle - brush points, 'gold medal Jen Black' Slip Belles all kinds of shelling James in order to brush points to give up defense, give up winning, his goal is to win the historical scoring king, he does not care about the record, if James does not even enter the playoffs, the old Jen does not know what to spray by him.
The Lakers only have a 9% chance of reaching the first round of the playoffs, and even if the Lakers enter the first round of the playoffs to play the Pelicans, they will have to play the Clippers in the second round. Last season's playoff Grizzlies first beat the Blazers, then beat the Warriors to become the eighth in the West to enter the playoffs, is it possible for the Lakers to be like the Grizzlies?
James's biggest possibility is worse than curry last year, the Warriors ranked eighth in the West last year, the Grizzlies challenged the Warriors in the second game of the playoffs, and finally the Grizzlies beat the Warriors into the playoffs, Curry's playoffs 39 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals were defeated by Morant in overtime, and Curry averaged 32 points per game last season to win the scoring king, Curry played at least one playoff, James may not even qualify for the playoffs.
