The Lakers won all three games in the play-offs and advanced to the seventh place, ranking first in the league at key moments

On April 17, Beijing time, although James had criticized the play-off system, the Lakers have played the play-offs three times in the last four years, and won all three games, all of which were promoted to the playoffs as the No. 7 seed in the West, becoming the first team in history to achieve such an achievement, worthy of being the "king of the play-offs". It's just that the Lakers are once again challenging the defending champion Nuggets, and they have already faced each other for eight consecutive losses, which is worrying.

James led the Lakers to a championship in 2020 for the first time in 10 years, but James was initially critical of the play-in system implemented by the league in recent years. It's just that I never thought that in the past 4 years, except for one time that the Lakers missed the play-offs, the remaining 3 years have been required to play in the play-offs, which is undoubtedly quite sad.

Fortunately, the Lakers led by James participated in the play-offs three times, and they won all of them directly, thus advancing to the playoffs with seventh place in the West, becoming the first team in NBA history to do so to set a record.

James led the Lakers to the playoffs three times:

Beat the Pelicans in 2024 to advance

Beat the Timberwolves in 2023

Beat the Pelicans in 2021

It is worth mentioning that this season, the Lakers played a crucial game, with a record of 24 wins and 9 losses, the best in the league, and the team's free throw shooting rate during this period was 82.9%.

However, after the Lakers break into the Western Conference playoffs, they will face the defending champion Nuggets in the first round, and they have lost 8 consecutive matches against the Nuggets, including 0-4 in the West last year and 0-3 in the regular season this year.
