The Lakers are drama: lost to the Kings… by 47 points!

Whether the Lakers are depressed or in despair is no longer known or what exactly is your problem. But even as the diagnosis is made and the season looms, the drama continues.

The Lakers don’t seem to have learned anything. From last season, even this preseason, 1 win in 5 games, Performance is degraded. I also doubt a supernatural version of LeBron James (this time he had 12 points and 3 rebounds in 20 minutes) could save the Los Angeles franchise from another dismal season. “Bron” was the only player to reach double figures on the night he missed. Anthony Davis Lower back pain with finger injuries, like Dennis Schroeder.

This refrain has already been sung many times in recent months, but for the Lakers, beyond such an embarrassing loss, Horizon is disappointing.what Davis A concern, if only a small one, is that the center has been talking about physical issues after last season’s disappointing results. much more worrying, Denise Schroederyou may lose some games.

In addition to injury problems others persist. tripleDespite the fact that the Durbin Hamm-led team signed an acceptable 36% against the Kings (they trailed just 64% in free throws), they finished the preseason with a low 30%. finished.
