James is out injured and experts predict he will miss six weeks, so the regular season will be reimbursed. Davis scored 28 points, 19 rebounds and 5 blocks today, and the Lakers still struggled to stop the Grizzlies, who defeated the Lakers 121-109, ending the new Lakers' three-game winning streak after the trade. In order to fill the vacancy of Old Jen and go all out to hit the playoffs, it is imperative for the Lakers to sign the big general.
First, missing 6 weeks, James is likely to be reimbursed for the regular season.
Today, the Lakers update James' latest injury, James who previously injured his right foot for the Lakers to return to the playoffs, fought with injuries for nearly 2 months, and played with injuries in the last game against the Lone Ranger, directing a 27-point reversal. This also caused James to become more injured and unable to walk independently.
The Lakers preliminarily determined that James would miss 2-3 weeks due to a right foot injury, but the famous American medical expert Holmes said that if James is a mid-foot problem, then LeBron James will be back on the court at least 6 weeks at the earliest.
The NBA 2022-2023 regular season will end on April 10, 2023, and the NBA play-offs will be held from April 12 to 15, Beijing time. If you miss six weeks, you will be reimbursed for the basic regular season. This is definitely a heavy blow for the Lakers, because without leader James, it will be difficult for the Lakers to win more games in the following games and thus qualify for the playoffs.
Second, the Lakers have to rely on him to win.
Although this season in James' absence, Davis has repeatedly put in nearly 30+20 numbers. This game even cut explosive statistics 28+19+5, but in James' absence, the Lakers only achieved a 5-9 record.
The Lakers, currently ranked twelfth in the West, have 20 regular-season games left. Although it is only one win away from the 10th Pelicans in the West, if James is injured for a few weeks, it will be difficult for the Lakers to make the playoffs.
Fortunately, Davis was on the inside after the absence of Old Jen, supporting the Lakers' inside line, the Lakers' inside line is simply crushing the Grizzlies, thick eyebrows guarding the inside, no matter who hits the inside line can not guarantee success, healthy thick eyebrows are definitely the strength of the league. James' absence this season averaged 28.8 points, 15.9 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game.
Although statistics don't represent everything, all statistics have indeed improved when the thick-eyed brother led the team single-core, especially on the defensive end, Davis, who was named to the best defensive team 4 times, is definitely a dominant existence. I hope Davis takes responsibility, gets beautiful data and wins, and doesn't get the stigma of brushing data.
Third, it is imperative for the Lakers to sign the big general.
In this game, although the Lakers Davis cut 28 points, 19 boards and 5 blocks, Schroder also scored 10 points and 10 assists, River also scored 17 points and 7 assists, and Walker cut 21 points. However, with James' absence, the team urgently needs to strengthen the depth of the roster.
It is reported that the Lakers plan to sign free man Barton, a 198cm tall Barton general, who averaged 14.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game last season, and his playing time and personal data declined at the beginning of this season due to his inability to adapt to the Wizards' tactical system and his own injury reasons. Last season, as the Nuggets' No. 2 scorer, Barton, shooting 43.4% from the field and 35.8% from three-point range, is still very strong, and his addition will further increase the Lakers' bench strength and outside firepower, and the Lakers' ball pressure after the absence of James and Russell will also be improved.
James can't play, the thick-eyed brother must step up, and the Lakers must further strengthen so that the playoffs can be hopeful.
