In the NBA playoffs, the Lakers lost to the Nuggets 105-112 at home, and the series fell behind 0-3. In this game, the Lakers were not aggressive on the offensive end, and there were drawbacks on the defensive end in the second half, which ultimately caused them to be completely pressed and beaten, and there was a loss.
And in fact, there is only one person in the audience who is a full score, and this person is Brother Thick Eyebrows. With a game-high 33 points and 15 rebounds on 14-of-23 shooting, he has completed three consecutive games, and none of the games have been a crotch-pulling performance, and he has given it his all. Unfortunately, he couldn't lead the team to victory, because his teammates were too vegetable.
At this time, James, Dinwiddie, and Vincent were all barely passing. Among them, James scored 26 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists on 11-of-20 shooting, and his statistics are still okay. Unfortunately, on the one hand, there are physical problems, and on the other hand, there are defensive problems, both of which are hindering James' performance on the court. What's more critical is that James trained 3 hours in advance, and used all his physical strength in training, so let's save some energy.
Dinwiddie and Vincent's play on the defensive end is still okay, especially for Murray's restrictions, both of them have given some help, but the offensive end is not open.
Prince, Rivers, Hachimura and Russell are all signs of cancer. Prince is a pseudo-3D, 1-of-4 three-pointers in this game, and the defensive end can't give substantial suppression, which is basically a collapse performance, and can't help anything.
The most desperate are Rivers and Russell. Among them, for Rivers, he scored 8 points in the last 1 minute, which is obviously to make his stats look better and show how good he is. Helplessly, on the defensive end against Potter, he didn't have anything to do, just like a blank slate. Russell is even more desperate, G1 collapsed, G2 picked up, and G3 started to score 0 points again. Once he can't run wild on the offensive end, the Lakers' deterrence on the offensive end will drop significantly. Hachimura has no rebounds on the court, no defense, and the plus/minus is still the worst on the team.
