On April 23, Beijing time, Jamal Murray killed the Lakers with a sword, and the spirit of losing the Lakers was really completely gone.
Brother Thick Eyebrows was full of firepower in the half, easily scored 24 points on 11-of-12 shooting, and once scored 14 of 15 in the course of the game, scoring 32 points in two and a half quarters, Russell scored 6 three-pointers in the first half, and scored 7 three-pointers in the whole court to score 23 points.
James did stand up at the critical moment in the 4th quarter, with two key three-pointers and counterattack dunk hits, 26+8+12 in the whole game, but as far as the Lakers three cores played like this, this game was not won, and the Lakers' subsequent home games, can they play better than this one?
For the Lakers, the most lethal thing about this is not losing, not being wiped out by the Nuggets for 10 consecutive regular season playoffs without winning, the most lethal is the 20-point lead being reversed, which is unimaginable for a destruction of their mentality, defeating them in the most murderous way, so that the Lakers really have no heart, you feel unstable how many points you win later, you feel empty-hearted.
Then the Lakers will always have this kind of weak attitude in the future, and he will not play when he is ahead, which is uncomfortable. So this is the most unacceptable moment for the Lakers, that is, they are playing so well, the three core superstars have gone crazy, and they can't take this ball. This feeling of winning first and then losing is really a test of your mentality, and except for James, there is probably no way for anyone else in this team to adjust quickly.
So Murray's goal is really murderous, James has already shot the key ball crazily, and when he has already played his life, when Russell is already superb, and Brother Thick Mei has entered the park state, the Lakers can't win, so there is no way. Then wait until the Nuggets' shooting rate picks up, this round of games will only get harder and harder, this kind of script is not as good as the Nuggets simply beating the Lakers, just forget it, every time you let the Lakers see a little hope, and finally make them desperate, it is more helpless than a simple victory.
Therefore, after this game, the Lakers are basically gone, and the Nuggets cannot be worse than this one, it is impossible to continue to shoot 8 of 34 three-pointers, and then the bench players 4 people add up to a total of only 12 points, they always have an outbreak, and there is always a time when the three-point shot is accurate, and the Lakers may be even more unbearable in the back, and it can only be said that this counterattack has completely cut off all hope for the Lakers.
After watching this game, I am afraid that even the mentality of hundreds of millions of James fans and Lakers fans has collapsed, let alone facing the players in this round on the court, and returning to G3 at home will be a life-and-death battle in advance.
