As Su Qun said in his personal account, before the Lakers lose to the Suns, that is, before they finally determine that they have missed the playoffs and playoffs, in fact, everyone should be prepared in advance to determine that the Lakers will not qualify for the playoffs and playoffs, it is only a matter of time. And such a result is only a matter of coming one day early or one day late. This season's Lakers, from being expected to win the championship, to finally not even getting a play-off place, is really a surprise. However, if you think about it, such a result seems to have been predestined. Even if the Lakers have a lineup of many superstars, 5 75 superstars, double MVP, double scoring kings, double assist kings, and even a playoff play-off place, it can only show that the Lakers' stars are old and sick, and then talk about the big three in these teams, it is really out of place.
I still remember the days when I knew that the NBA game returned to CCTV5, I had already seen the TV program preview, but I still put my time and energy on watching the CBA game, and it was deliberately delayed for two days, and then I began to watch a short NBA game, and at that time, the Lakers were competing with the Pelicans for the last 11 seconds of the last quarter. The Lakers once led by a large margin in the front, but in the end they failed to use the last shot to hit a three-point shot, regrettably receiving a defeat. It was James who threw the most important three-pointer at that time, but James in this game was unable to rewrite the score and the final outcome of the game on his own. After the game, the thick eyebrows said you can't and I, who has just returned to 70% of my form, asked to play the level of ten successful forces. Seeing such a statement with thick eyebrows, we can only laugh, what he said is not wrong, but when we saw him with a finger injury in Kobe Bryant, and he had diarrhea almost pulled to the point of collapse, he still played a dominant performance on the field, and he was fighting until the Achilles tendon was broken and still led the team to the playoffs. But the current Lakers, the current James, the thick-browed brothers, and The Westbrooks, can't do that.
In a way, it's because they're old or suffering from injuries that affect their strength and condition. But in more precise terms, they are not strong enough, and the Big Three is more like a slogan or label, losing its practical significance on the field. The same is true for the Suns, James has chosen to take a leave in advance, even if Westbrook and Thick Brow contributed 28 and 21 points respectively, Reeves and Anthony came off the bench and scored 18 and 13 points each, but they still have difficulty winning a game in front of the Suns dominated by Booker and Paul. It seems that Paul's scoring data is not bright, only 6 points and 4 rebounds, but he contributed 12 assists in the whole game, helping Booker and Ayton score 32 points and 22 points respectively, the whole team 12 people participated in the rotation, 8 people scored more than 8 points, this is the overall strength of the Suns. The Lakers have only 5 players who scored more than 8 points. In addition, in the assists and rebounding data, the Suns also occupied a clear lead of 38-22 and 53-46 respectively, which is the big three model of the strong team. It seems that when we say that the Lakers also have big three at this time, they will feel a little embarrassed.
Su Qun's evaluation of the Lakers' state and strength this season is in favor of the game, but he said that the Lakers' journey away from the ground this season is also a major blow to the NBA's big three model. In fact, whether it is the NBA or the CBA, having three super giants who maintain their status can help the team form a combat effectiveness, and can strive for a good regular season ranking for the team, as well as strive for good results in the playoffs and create conditions for the championship. In general, it is not that the Big Three model is not suitable for the Lakers or other teams, but that a reasonable lineup is the key to determining the team's performance, and if the team wants to produce results, it really can't rely on superstars, especially the elderly superstars to do the addition model. I hope that the future Lakers management can truly realize this. At least this season, the Lakers are out, and James's loneliness, like the NBA that returned to CCTV5 this season. There were no flowers and applause, no cheers from the outside. And this seems to remind us that our youth cannot go back. Just like the Lakers want to have a chance to compete for the championship, I'm afraid they want to rely on five veterans, really not.
