Who would have thought that in the case of James and thick eyebrows, the Lakers still lost to the Nuggets, most of the game, the Lakers were in the lead, and even in the third quarter they once led the Nuggets by as many as 20 points, but that's it, the Lakers finally finished the final seconds in the final quarter, Murray completed a shocking kill, lost the game, and returned to Los Angeles with 0-2, the Lakers will probably be swept by the Nuggets.
Why?
First, in order to win this key G2, the Lakers are already three military lives, it can almost be said that they are fighting with the Nuggets, thick eyebrows and Lao Zhan have physical overdrafts, especially thick eyebrows, defense has to fight against Jokic, and the offense has to attack him, the consumption is very large, in the first half, thick eyebrows have already hit very good data, suppressed Jokic, and brought a huge lead to the Lakers, but in the fourth quarter, thick eyebrows' physical fitness began to be overdrawn, and the Lakers had to use a small forward like Hachimura to dislocate against Jokic, leaving time for thick eyebrows to take a breath。
Thick eyebrows themselves have injuries, before the game, this season's best defensive player shortlist, he was excluded, with anger in his heart, so he played extremely bravely today, but it was also because he was too hard in the first half, which led to a power outage in the second half, and he couldn't score in consecutive singles, but was retained The physical Jokic continued to use Yomu to block and punish in the final quarter.
Second, this loss is desperate for the Lakers, and they can't win it despite their best efforts, which will naturally be a blow to the team's morale. Pope's three points were all defended by the Lakers, and only one Porter of the Nuggets played at a super level, 6 of 10 three-pointers, and the rest of the three-pointers totaled only 26 of 2, so the Lakers still couldn't take it, it can be seen that if the Lakers want to win a Nuggets, they must prevent the three points of the Nuggets team, but it is definitely unrealistic for the Lakers to have an all-round outside defense.
The Nuggets may be iron, but it is impossible to be iron in the entire series, and the Lakers may be a god, but it is difficult for the Big Three to be super-gods in the entire series.
The Lakers are currently on a 10-game losing streak against the Nuggets since last season's playoff meeting.
The most regrettable thing in the whole game is Brother Thick Eyebrows, he is the player who defended Murray at the last moment of the game, Thick Eyebrows has tried his best, forcing Murray to make a very extreme retreat and drift shot, and the ball is scored steadily in the case of almost no frame, Murray also tried his best, the ball entered the frame, he also flew out of the court, and quickly drowned in the carnival celebration of his teammates.
Murray was drowned in the crowd with thick eyebrows, but this scene was a bit embarrassing for him.
Lonely, surrounded by a carnival of a group of people.
He was surrounded by opposing players, and everyone's faces were filled with the joy of the kill, only the thick eyebrows sat on the Nuggets' bench, if someone behind him hadn't hugged him, the thick eyebrows would have collapsed and slipped off the bench, and he might be stepped on by the opposing players.
James and thick eyebrows, as well as Russell, La Shen, the three of them combined to score 81 points in this game, La Shen and thick eyebrows dominated the first three quarters, James exerted his strength in the fourth quarter, hit two three-pointers and scored a violent dunk, and forcibly hung the Lakers, but it still fell short.
Here, we have to talk about the two sinners of the Lakers' loss, one of which is Cephalosporin coach Ham.
Ham really can't compare with Malone, Malone has had two challenges in this game, both of which were successful, the most outrageous is at the end of the third quarter of the game, Russell's layup was hit in the face by Porter Jr., the referee blew Porter's foul for the first time, Malone applied for a challenge, this thing is difficult to succeed in normal times, but the magic is that the referee made a change after watching the replay, giving the reason that Porter only slightly touched Russell's face during the blocking, which is not a foul.
James and Russell also mentioned this incident after the game, and Lao Zhan gave Russell a head, saying that Russell was obviously slapped in the face, what are you doing in the replay center?
Malone's daring to challenge such fouls shows that he is bold and careful, but what about Hamm? He doesn't have the guts.
He had 2 timeouts and a chance to challenge, in the last 57.6 seconds of the fourth quarter, Lao Zhan was caught by the referee with a foul when he was confronting Murray, at that time, this foul was also far-fetched, James only had a slight confrontation, and was blown foul, after the foul, James spread his hands and said that he was very innocent, at this time, Hamm, did not say, nor did he apply for a challenge, and let Murray pick up two free throws and score, equalizing the point difference.
Some people may say, what if this foul challenge fails? Isn't that wasted?
In fact, otherwise, in view of Russell's slap in the face, then theoretically, Hamm's challenge has an absolute chance to succeed, even if it fails, it can also let James and thick eyebrows take a break during the challenge, and rethink how to limit the Nuggets' Yomu blocking, because the Nuggets' outside three-point is seriously inaccurate, and the game will come to this, their offensive routines are all around Jokic and Murray's blocking, Murray can hit the shot, and because in the last few minutes of the fourth quarter, he gradually cultivated his hand in the continuous blocking and dismantling of Mr. Yoo。
The Lakers' No. 1 sinner is Ham, who is two gears worse than Malone in terms of on-the-spot adaptability, and even the way he uses people is incomprehensible.
This time Ham gave Vincent another 15 minutes to play, the latter only got 1 rebound and 1 assist, as a shooter, no contribution, this is unreasonable, Vincent's contract is not small, because last season in the Heat played a value, was poached by the Lakers, I thought it could solve the team's outside offensive problems, but I never thought that Vincent came to recuperate from the injury, and waited mercilessly for him to heal, the regular season will not be cared for, the playoffs can always help the team, Mr. Wen disappointed again this time, G2 scored 0 points, G1 also scored 0 points, two playoff games averaged 12 minutes per game, 0 points, 1 board and 1 assist, the Lakers lost a lot。
