On January 10, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Lakers played against the Raptors at home. In this game, the two teams played a stalemate matchup, the point difference has not been opened, the Lakers took the initiative at the critical moment, but the Raptors continued to chase points, but fortunately, Davis's free throws were very stable, all of them were two free throws. In the end, the Lakers defeated the Raptors 132-131 at home and won 2 in a row.
In the first quarter of the game, Davis played well, scoring 16 points in a single quarter to help the team take the initiative, but after that, the Raptors relied on more points to catch up with the score, and then the two teams went back and forth, and the score was never able to pull away, and the score was alternately ahead. In the final quarter, both teams felt very hot, the Lakers were just about to open up the difference, the Raptors hit one after another from the outside, Davis hit consecutive free throws at the critical moment, and the Raptors Siakam hit a three-point shot to no avail, and finally lost the opponent by one point.
The Lakers were able to pass the thrilling test this time, and there were also three major contributors, the first of which was Davis. This time, the thick eyebrows played very well, completely dominating the whole court, and showed their dominance on the inside, the Raptors really had no choice, 13 of 17 shots, 41 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists, including 20 points in the final quarter, and hit two consecutive free throws at critical moments to help the team lock up the win. At the critical moment, he first blocked Barnes's up, and then caused Barrett to block the foul, and made great contributions on both offensive and defensive ends. In addition, this is the 50th time in Davis' Lakers career that he has scored at least 30 points and 10 rebounds, becoming the fourth player in team history.
Lao Zhan didn't feel very good on the offensive end this time, but he still had the ability to stabilize the situation, delivering a game-high 12 assists and helping the team with passes. And he also has a clear mind at key moments, always able to see the situation clearly, and in the final stage, he serves the ball, rather than catching the ball himself and executing free throws. On the one hand, he has an advantage in passing, on the other hand, his free throws are inconsistent, and he made 4 of 6 free throws in this game, and if there is one of two free throws in the end, the Raptors really have a chance.
The last one belongs to the referee, and this time his blowing penalty is very controversial, and the key moment is to continue to favor the Lakers, Reaves and Christie's fouls under the basket, and Barrett's covering fouls, which are all against the Raptors. The Raptors made 13 free throws in the game, and the Lakers made 36 free throws, including 2-23 in the final quarter, and the gap was a little too big. Old Zhan just complained about Celtics' Brown, and if the referee report came out that the Lakers made a profit, I don't know what he would think.
