Hey, the Lakers have recently ushered in another 5-game losing streak. In addition to the 5-game losing streak at the beginning of the season, the two waves of 5-game losing streak have brought their record to 2 wins and 10 losses. Like the Rockets, the record is tied for the bottom of the league. one. 2 wins and 10 losses, also tied for the worst start in Lakers history.
Because of the difference in points, the Lakers are ranked 14th in the West and the Rockets are ranked 15th in the West. In this 5-game losing streak, the Lakers' offense improved slightly, scoring 109 points in 100 rounds, ranking 17th in the league; but the defense collapsed, dropping 122 points in 100 rounds, ranking last in the league.
Previously, the Lakers ranked last in attack efficiency, and they have made some progress recently. But the defense collapsed, which was completely unexpected. You know, at the beginning of the season, the Lakers ranked second in the league in defensive efficiency, second only to the Bucks. Now it has dropped to 17th, which is astonishing.
The Lakers' back-to-back speed is now very slow, and their transition defense ranks second to last in the league. This season's Lakers have more young players, but I didn't expect that the effect of retreating was worse than last season's "old-fashioned" Lakers. The Lakers' one-on-one defense on the perimeter is also poor, so opponents always grab the Lakers for singles.
The Lakers haven't won a .500 team this season, and now this Lakers: 30th in offense, 17th in defense, 28th in net rating, 24th in assists, 26th in field goal percentage 30th in 3-point shooting percentage, 29th in effective field goal percentage, and 30th in winning percentage.
ESPN said that the Lakers are like frozen food.
Hamm said after the game yesterday: "Even without LeBron, this is a game we can very much win. I just told the players after the game that the key is to maintain our competitive spirit and continue to compete. Westbrook played today. Yes, the contribution to the team is huge, we will continue to study the video when we go back."
Thick eyebrows were still frustrated after the game, and bluntly said: "Sometimes our basketball IQ is very high, and sometimes our basketball IQ is very low."
If If the Lakers continue to play like this, I am afraid they will give the Pelicans a Wenban Yama for nothing. After all, the Pelicans hold the Lakers’ 2023 first-round pick. The US media said that the Lakers have the highest probability of getting the No. 1 pick next year, which is really a wedding dress for others.
Tomorrow, the Lakers will play against the Nets. The team released an injury report, showing that Thick eyebrows (lower back tension) may play, James (adductor muscle strain) has a small probability of playing, and Thomas Bryant and Schroder cannot play.
Durant said he would like James to play, after all, the two have not faced each other since 2018. Durant said: "It's a very special feeling. We haven't played against each other in a long time, and the fans who have seen us match up have grown up." When asked if he would go to the main defense When James, Durant said: "Is there anyone else who can guard? He has 2.06 meters. Looking back on NBA history, it is rare for forwards like us to face each other, and we are both teams in most of the games. The No. 1 offensive option in the game, so we're definitely going to match up. You know, I think we've changed some definitions of the forward position." Durant laughed: "There's also a special matchup between us. The place is always talking trash in the game."
James may not be able to play tomorrow, Durant said: "LeBron is difficult to deal with, we need to win. Of course we want him to play, but he doesn't play. If so, the game will be easy for us."
Tomorrow at 10:30, the Lakers will play against the Nets, so stay tuned.
