The Lakers just lost the game. They will continue to play at home on the 1st. The opponent is the Trail Blazers with great strength. LeBron and Thick-Brow should continue their dominance, and Westbrook and others will assist, and they strive to avoid losing streaks at home. The Trail Blazers are not in good shape recently and have lost two consecutive games. They urgently need to get out of the decline, so Grant , Simmons and others should perform better.
The Lakers' last game was a pity. They experienced a reversal of 17 points ahead, and were finally defeated and ended with two consecutive victories. The Lakers' form has improved significantly recently, winning 5 games in 7 games. The match against the Trail Blazers is also a starting point, as they will start their away trip to the Eastern Conference next. Of course, the Lakers want to take the victory to the East, but they still have to play all their strength in the game.
LeBron has been injured recently, but he still chose to play. Thick eyebrows also have injuries, but he has been persistent in playing. Judging from the situation in the previous game, LeBron and Thick Brows should both play against the Trail Blazers. LeBron scored 21 points and 7 rebounds in the last game, and looked good, but his shooting percentage was only 36%. It is not easy to play against the Trail Blazers. LeBron will face the impact of Grant and Winslow. If he can regain his touch, the team is expected to win.
Davis performed well in the last game. He scored 25 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 blocks in the whole game, but unfortunately failed to help the team win. Davis has done the best in recent games, but it also needs more support. Against the Trail Blazers, Davis will face Nurkic and must suppress the opponent so that the Lakers can win.
Westbrook's recent performance is obvious to all. He has done almost the best, but the number of mistakes is too high. Against the Trail Blazers, Westbrook's requirements are very clear, and reducing the number of mistakes is the first place. At the same time, Westbrook should contact more teammates, so that it can put more pressure on the opponent.
The Lakers' recent game has changed significantly, that is, their outside shooting is getting better. The good news is that Beverly will also make a comeback, and he can improve the team's perimeter defense. Walker averages 16 points per game in the new season, which is the third scoring point in the team. The game against the Trail Blazers must be maintained. There are also Schroeder, Reeves, Bryant and others. If there is a stable outside shooting rate, the game will be much easier.
Trail Blazers have been in average recently and have lost 2 consecutive games. In the last game, they were 18 points ahead of the Clippers, but like the Lakers, they failed to defend and had to accept a series of losses. Lillard is still injured and will continue to be absent. The Trail Blazers can only rely on Simmons, Grant, and Nurkic, and they must perform well.
Simmons' performance exploded in the last game, scoring 37 points in the whole game and making as many as 9 three-pointers. When playing against the Lakers, Simmons needs to maintain a touch, which will put a lot of pressure on the opponent. Grant scored 32 points in the last game, and his outside shooting was also very accurate, so he just needs to maintain his level next. Nurkic should pay attention to the inside line, because he has to face the impact of the Thick Eyebrow. If he can hold on, the game will be much easier.
Both sides are expected to start:
Trail Blazers: Simmons, Hart, Winslow, Grant, Nurkic.
Lakers: Beverly, Walker, Brown , LeBron, Davis .
