However, this game also proved from the side that the Lakers' interior line is really weak, not to mention Randle and Bass, even the two-meter-one-three Thackeray is actually a very soy sauce floating bamboo pole outside, which can't protect the inside line at all, but fortunately, a few firepower points on the outside line still perfectly make up for this defect, so they were able to win this game, to be honest, this is also because the Kings' outside line is too weak, so that Ye Xuan and others can find the target of attack, If you face a team like the Spurs and Rockets, which are also good on the outside, the Lakers have no chance of winning at all.

After the game with the Kings, the Lakers ushered in a three-day break again, and the next game will not be ushered in until the nineteenth, and the opponent of the next game is the Suns, speaking of which the Suns are also a bit miserable, originally exchanged for a Hibbert, thinking that he played well last season, at least this season will not be bad, but I didn't expect that Hibbert came directly to a high platform this season, and the data instantly changed from an average of 15+9 per game last season to an average of 6 points and 7 boards per game this season, has completely changed from a decent main interior player to a blue-collar player. What makes the Suns feel desperate the most is that Hibbert's attitude is very bad, he has no offensive possession, and he does not contribute on the defensive end, which makes the Suns very annoyed, and it is estimated that after the end of this season, Hibbert will not be able to find the next contract with the Suns.

The Lakers played very easily in this game, because the strong point of the Suns is still on the outside, so in the face of the Lakers, a team with good outside defense and stronger than the opponent's offensive firepower, the Suns collapsed, plus the overall strength of the Suns was not very strong, so naturally they were not able to resist the attack of the Lakers who were in good shape, the first quarter of the game, 39:29, although there were a lot of points conceded, but the Lakers' offensive firepower has perfectly made up for this.

In the second quarter of the game, although there was no Ye Xuan's organization in the backcourt, the Lakers' offense was chaotic for a while, but after Ye Xuan was replaced, they quickly stabilized their position, 28:26 in a single quarter, and only won the opponent by two points, but at the end of the half, the Lakers still led the opponent by double digits. There were only 18 points and 6 assists in the half, but the rebounding and steal statistics were not low, and he got 5 rebounds and 3 steals, and of course 1 block just after the halfway point of the game, which is considered the tuition paid by the little guy Devin Booker.

The second half basically became a harvest rhythm, if it weren't for Markieff Morris still there struggling to support, the Lakers would have been able to end the battle a long time ago, but it was not until there were 5 minutes left in the third quarter that the difference was completely stretched to 18 points.

At the end of the game, the Lakers won five in a row on their home court, and suddenly the Lakers became the best team in the league in the last two weeks, with six wins and one loss in the last seven games, only the Warriors and the Lakers have the same record, and other teams, including the Cavaliers, have lost at least two games. However, this also has something to do with the Lakers' schedule, their recent games are very far apart, none of them are back-to-back, and they are all at home, and they are definitely in good shape. The same can be said for their next game, which is at home to the Grizzlies after a four-day break.

Of course, this is also the last game of their consecutive home games, and it is also the last game of their easy schedule, because after the Grizzlies play on the 23rd, they will rush to Phoenix to play the Suns again on the road, and in the last week of March, they also have four games, 26 to 31, and the back-to-back games will also be a test of their fitness.

Time soon came to the twenty-third, compared to the previous break, this break time gave Ye Xuan the opportunity to buy a new car with Shen Wei again, after all, his Enzo is already in its third year, but although Los Angeles is a metropolis, but the car show is not said to be there, in the end, Ye Xuan's new car is still finalized on the Internet, it is also from the Ferrari family, the latest model Ferrari 488 Spider, of course, Ye Xuan is the spokesperson of Ferrari, Therefore, the senior management of Ferrari finally decided to directly send a customized version of the painted 488 Spider to Ye Xuan as a car, which is the benefit of the spokesperson.

In fact, in this game against the Grizzlies, the Lakers will play very hard, and if they want to win, it will be more difficult than defeating the original Hawks. Last season, the Grizzlies once again proved their reputation as tough bones, and every regular season was like playing the playoffs, and the playoffs were like playing the Finals...... Every time you play, you feel like you're working hard. The pioneer of playing literature and art had no chance in front of the grizzly bear and was directly beaten. In the face of the future championship Grizzlies, they did not give in, and when Conley, the core of the team's backcourt, was seriously injured, they forced the Warriors into a desperate situation. It was the only real challenge the Warriors encountered in the playoffs (playing the Rockets was casual, and playing the Pacers was just careless because the opponent lacked a major general), and once made the Warriors doubt themselves, and this year, the Grizzlies maintained almost all of the core rotation and came back.

Gasol Jr. is now the most versatile center in the NBA, except for his lack of desire to be aggressive, both offensive and defensive are particularly powerful. Conley's injury is the kind that doesn't affect his recovery, and he's getting more mature, and as one of the top five point guards in the NBA for defensive ability, he's become the de facto second core of the team when the Black Bears' form is declining. Although the name of this team is still called the team of black and white bears. Although Randolph's form continued to decline, like the driver, he was able to maintain his tough style of play and efficiency in a short period of time. (Generally, it can only be maintained for one section, and the efficiency of other times can only be said to be a qualified starting level) At critical moments, he can still rely on him to open up the situation.

After bringing in Green last season, the team was finally able to put Tony Allen, the best defender in the league's backcourt, into the starting lineup to limit the opponent's outside core. On the bench, Courtney Lee has both offense and defense, Carter is old and strong, and Udri is also a starting guard. The new Barnes I can only say is too much in line with the temperament of the Grizzlies villain, although his ability as a pseudo-3D player is declining, but he can still play a huge role in the position of a two-way forward off the bench. The coach has been very successful in building this tough guy team, a beast that no team wants to meet in the playoffs.

However, they are not without flaws, after all, the black bear is old, and Randolph, as one of the tactical cores, can hardly afford the mission that is now entrusted to him. But the Grizzlies' interior rotation is actually far less strong than last season's, and a qualified interior bench is urgently needed to help the Bears rotate. Wright is a good finisher, having been the league's true shooting percentage king last season. But why did he play less than 20 minutes in every game? Because on the offensive end, although he has a sense of finishing and explosive physical ability, he lacks qualified offensive skills. Although the defensive end can jump and cover, it lacks the awareness of protecting the frame. It is only possible to rotate the inside line for a short period of time, and it is impossible to expect him to rotate the double bears alone.

The team can only count on Green and Barnes, two two-way forwards, to help the Bears rotate more. But the team's real frame protector is only Xiao Jia, there is no substitute, and when Xiao Jia is off the court, it is also a question whether the team's interior defense can still be at the high level of last season. The rotation of the team's flanks in the past two years has been greatly improved, Green, Barnes, Allen, Courtney Lee, and Carter can easily complete their tasks in two positions, but the team does not have a third point guard, once Conley or Udri is injured, the team must give a lot of the ball to the small plus one person to organize, and the double attack guard is very difficult, which is very difficult for the offense to initiate, so the injuries of Conley and Udri are crucial for the Grizzlies.

This season, the Grizzlies have lost interior thickness while strengthening the wings, and the overall strength should be said to be not much different from last season, but the Grizzlies with injuries last season can not be inferior to the Warriors, so what height can the injured Grizzlies reach? And judging from the current performance, the Grizzlies' performance has also hit their expected level, although there has been a period of shock due to the injury of the Black Bears in the middle, but the overall combat effectiveness is still very strong, and they are even ranked in front of the underperforming Rockets.

The game started quickly, although the Lakers had the advantage of the home court, but from the beginning of the game, they played very passively, the black and white bears on the inside made the Lakers' defensive pressure very high, and there were Conley and Tony Allen on the outside to curb the play of Ye Xuan and Kobe, so the Lakers were not able to control the rhythm of the game in their own hands through outside offense as they did in previous games.

Soon after the start of the game, the Lakers couldn't open the situation because of the delay on the outside, and there was no way to take the black and white bears on the inside, so they began to fall behind, but fortunately, the Grizzlies' outside pitchers today were not in shape, and several times Gasol Jr. suffered from the ball after the bag, and the Grizzlies did not seize the opportunity, so they did not widen the difference too much, but Rao was so, at the end of the first quarter, the Lakers still trailed the opponent by 5 points at 24:29. The 24-point first-quarter score was also the Lakers' lowest first-quarter score after Ye Xuan's comeback. I have to say that the Grizzlies' outside defense is still very powerful, although Conley is not Ye Xuan's opponent, but Ye Xuan has to be intercepted by the double bears after the breakthrough, the difficulty of attacking the basket is too great, the entire first quarter, Ye Xuan only scored 8 points, and Lao Ke is the same, he was very uncomfortable by Tony Allen, and only scored 6 points in the first quarter.

The rhythm of the game in the second quarter was completely tilted to the Grizzlies' side, firstly, because the Lakers' bench did lack a reliable brain, which made Nick Young, a player with relatively good offensive ability, unable to find the direction of the offense, and secondly, because the Grizzlies also had an excellent vacancy like Courtney Lee on the side of the Grizzlies, which made the gap between the bench lineups between the two teams, which was already not small, even more disparity.

By the time Ye Xuan was replaced, the Lakers had gone from trailing by 5 points in the first quarter to trailing by 12 points behind their opponents. Fortunately, after Ye Xuan was replaced, he immediately used his personal ability to use a three-point shot and a two-plus-one in two consecutive rounds to let the Grizzlies directly hand over a timeout, and at the same time narrowed the difference to 6 points, but after the timeout, the Grizzlies also replaced the main players, and the situation once again fell to the Grizzlies' side.

At the end of the first half, the Lakers were completely blown up inside, so they trailed the Grizzlies by 11 points. Ye Xuan's data is also the worst time since coming to the Lakers, only 18 points and 2 assists, yes, it is two assists, Ye Xuan basically can't find the opportunity to help his teammates get space in this game, when facing a team like the Grizzlies with super individual defensive ability, Ye Xuan's role can be played much smaller, and when it comes to playing against teams like Spurs and Rockets with Leonard and Beverley, it can be seen.

Soon after the start of the second half, the state of the black bear finally began to decline, after all, he was getting older, but what Ye Xuan didn't expect was that Green stood up at this time and directly became another black bear. was able to hold the ball head-on and shoot three-pointers, which instantly disrupted the Lakers' scoring plan.

As a result, the Lakers, who lost this opportunity to chase points, were basically pressed to the ground by the Grizzlies in the next game, and at the end of the game, the Lakers finally lost the game on their home court, and lost nearly twenty points in one loss. Ye Xuan's performance in this game was not particularly good, Ye Xuan, who played 36 minutes, only got 28 points and 6 assists, and there were still 3 steals, but the fast break after the steal was not able to score, and the final result of these three steals was to bring Ye Xuan two turnovers and a shot iron.

In fact, it can be seen in this game that the Lakers' current lineup flaws are still too obvious, and there is no meat shield on the inside to resist Randolph's tonnage inside, which has been reflected in the face of the Kings, but there is no way, the trade has closed this season, so if you want to change the lineup, you can only wait until the end of the season.
