December 23, .
King suffered a three-game losing streak with 24 points. In the absence of James, the Lakers can be said to have been completely out of their underwear and played extremely poorly.
Now their record has come all the way to 24 wins and 6 losses. After suffering a three-game losing streak, the previous lead is not so obvious, and the gap has been completely opened by the Bucks.
Without James, the Lakers played really badly. One statistic created the worst so far this season. This can prove the importance of King James to the team. The Lakers only sent out
18 assists, creating the last one of the season.
They have never had a game with less than 19 assists before. In addition, the Lakers made 19 turnovers in this game. This is their second-highest number of turnovers this season and is close to a new season high.
Looking at the season low in assists, the Lakers played so hard without James.
In this game, Zhan Huang came to the sidelines to watch the game. I believe that James, who was watching the game from the sidelines, should have seen how important he is to this team. Without him, the Lakers’ offense is simply a mess, and they can’t organize an effective offense at all.
Come.
Several point guards are completely difficult to entrust important responsibilities, and even their strength is not enough to be a qualified point guard position.
A loss can prove even more why James is the No. 1 player in the NBA. Without him, this is the current level of the Lakers, which is not the No. 1 level in the Western Conference.
Unreachable level.
Kuzma’s words after the game should be the most representative. Kobe Kuzma said convincingly in an interview after the game: “When LeBron is absent from the game, it is really difficult for us to find another person
Replacing his contribution and his position, he can do too much for our team, if he does not play, we will indeed be very difficult.” In this game, although Kuzma finally worked hard, he made 15 shots
He scored 16 points, 4 rebounds, 2 blocks and 2 turnovers in 7 games, but without James, his offensive firepower could not be displayed at all.
Kuzma voluntarily admitted after the game that they would have played so difficult without James. He knows the importance of LeBron, there is no doubt about it.
When James is on the court, many people can’t see how important he is to such a team. When James is absent, everyone has already seen it.
MVP.
Now the Lakers players should recognize their own strength and ability. Without their big brother James by their side, the Lakers are really not strong enough.
