Madrid is on fire: Doncic is making a fool of himself like he did with Albacete!

Only 24 hours have passed since the tragedy. real madrid The day before albaceteLuka Doncic starred in a faithful rendition of the NBA’s version of white disaster: a brutal loss to the Charlotte Hornets and the aggravating factor of home (117-135). Despite the former Real Madrid player scoring 39 and 29 goals. lebron jamesThe Lakers found themselves trampled by one of the worst teams in the American League. This team has been in the top 20 or below for many years in the 30-team NBA, so if they are demoted, they will be in the second division. Only six teams have a worse record than the Hornets this season.

North Carolina State, ranked 12th in the East with a record of 15 wins and 26 losses, upset the Purple & Gold team with a late-game blowout. LaMelo Ball, He came out hot in the second period, scoring 27 of his 30 points and putting his team in trouble. JJ Reddick With a devastating burst of 9/17 on triples from the perimeter. The point guard had been the subject of transfer rumors, but his duo partner Brandon Miller had 26 points and Miles Bridges had 25 points.

Doncic took the shot. 39 points Respect the privilege of being the NBA’s leading scorer, not the leader of ring candidates like the Lakers, who are or pretend to be. This time, the “77 player” is far from achieving a triple double with 3 rebounds and 4 assists, but he reached 39 points with an excellent shooting series of 15/26 shots and 6/11 triples, but how many points did he concede? surely, than what he put in.

And Slovenians still dedication For these Lakers, it’s a friendly entry point into their defense. Finding a way to the rim in Los Angeles’ fragile defense is as easy as getting Doncic into the action, breaking through the first line and creating an advantage from there. The help of another teammate that “77” needs creates another quick advantage when they don’t attack him directly one-on-one. In the case of the Hornets, a player even dragged Doncic across from one side of the court to the other and attacked him there.

Slovenian player scored 19 points Go down to the first room and stay there only 5 In the last quarter, he didn’t look very energetic. He felt discomfort in his groin and went to the locker room, but when he was replaced at the end of the third quarter with the purple and gold leading 93-104, he couldn’t break the Hornets’ lead, which was 55-64 at halftime after ending the first quarter up 39-30.

But Doncic doesn’t have to be the scapegoat for the Lakers’ defensive vulnerabilities. Deandre Ayton A giant with feet of clay. The Bahamian scored a negligible 12 points, but this mostly came from highlights for the Hornets, who also attacked the 2018 No. 1 draft pick in a change and struck gold, but were unable to defend against the Hornets’ mid-range shots. brandon miller And I was overwhelmed by Charlotte’s brilliant ball handling.

without Jason Hayes It was much more accommodating to defensive players of all sizes, but the key was that Redick took Ayton off the court with 7 minutes, 22 seconds left, kept him from playing again, and gambled on a small quintet with LeBron as a “5.” However, the Lakers’ defensive issues also included a lack of synchronicity and aggression in their switch defense, allowing the Hornets to make several 3-pointers; LaMelo Ball, You can fire it from anywhere, like a carefree teenager going to the park to take pictures.

The Hornets slaughtered the Los Angeles team from long range, going 20/43 (47%) from the perimeter, while it was an accurate night for the Lakers, going 7.25 to 14/38 (37%). This time, with open shots coming in, the purple and gold’s lack of assists (just 18) was due to too much reliance on Doncic, leading to the collapse of the new final attack, and a lack of involvement from the rest of the team in his absence back home. austin reevesJake LaRavia’s 18 points and Marcus Smart’s 10 points weren’t enough.

the lakers are into something silent crisis, At first glance, there is no noticeable losing streak, but if you look at it from above, it becomes clear that they have only won 5 of their last 13 games. Last night, Luka Doncic’s team, which has the same talent as Real Madrid, suffered the worst humiliation in the match against Real Madrid. Albacete.
