With only 1 game left in the regular season, the Lakers' current record of 32 wins and 49 losses can only rank 11th in the West, and it has long been determined that they will not qualify for the playoffs, and there is no doubt that this is a losing season. The resulting disappointment spread among Lakers supporters, and at the same time, public opinion questioned James more and more.
While James has averaged 30.3 points, 8.2 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game this season and maintained an all-around statistic of more than 50 percent shooting, Stephen James has been able to perform his 50- and more goals. A. Smith still thinks james has not done enough, he believes that Westbrook's poor form and Davis's injury are just excuses, James should do better, he should lead the team to better results.
Skip Bayless, known as the "number one Zhan Black", criticized James, accusing him of valuing personal data more than the team's record, because he played in some games with weaker opponents, but chose to take a break when facing some strong opponents, and he also watched from the sidelines when facing opponents such as the Suns and Nuggets.
Just today, well-known actor Aries Spears has joined the criticism of James. He said that although he respected James's excellence, the previous debate about who was the best in history had actually ended, and it turned out that Jordan was the best in history.
"I'm an avid Jordan fan, and the same is true for James, but for me it's never worth arguing, well, I respect his (James's) game, I respect his excellence... But Jordan is the best in history, and the topic is over. You can see the performance of this season, this matter has been conclusively decided! Aries Spears said.
There is no doubt that this bad season is a "stain" on James's brilliant career, this "stain" will affect the overall evaluation of James by the outside world, and he needs to continue to lead the team to play a better performance in the remaining career, and even lead the team to win the championship in order to make people forget this "stain".
