Chapter 504 Davis is injured again!
Chapter 504 Davis is injured again!
The fans thought that the familiar thick eyebrow brother was back, but after beating the Kings, Davis was accidentally injured again during training.
Davis hurt his waist this time.
This is Davis' old injury, and it is also the most tangled part when the Lakers signed Davis.
There is no doubt about Davis' ability. If he can stay healthy, he will definitely be the best inside player in the league.
But there are risks in using Davis, and the risk is that Davis' glass man attributes are too easy to get injured.
I heard that Davis has almost no healthy parts of his body except his eyebrows.
The NBA has never been a level playing field where winners and losers are judged by strength.
Injuries, character, character, EQ, luck, and relationships are indispensable.
After Davis was injured, the Lakers ushered in a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The meaning of this game to the fans is the same as the Lakers' previous game against the Warriors, and it is also a very critical game.
LeBron returned to the Cavaliers, and the Lakers' record fell into a slump.
There is a hidden truth in this: "The Lakers can't move an inch without LeBron."
But is this really the case?
Not necessarily.
At least this time, LeBron returned to the Cavaliers, and the situation of the Cavaliers has not fundamentally changed much.
Fortunately, the competition in the East is not as fierce as in the West, so the Cavaliers still have great hopes of advancing to the playoffs.
This gave many Jamies the courage to brag about James:
"Look! Before James returned to the Cavaliers, the Cavaliers were at the bottom of the league. As soon as James comes back, the Cavaliers will be able to return to the playoffs immediately!"
……
The game between the Lakers and the Cavaliers is equivalent to a contest between two remaining teams.
The game between the Lakers and the Cavaliers was very intense, and it was tied at 48 at halftime.
In the second half, Cavaliers head coach Bailey seized on the flaw of the Lakers' simple tactics and frantically double-teamed Ge Feng.
The Cavaliers gradually became active in the second half, building up their advantage step by step.
Moreover, James suddenly showed his power in the second half, succeeded in consecutive singles, and finally led the Cavaliers to defeat the Lakers and win the game.
Ge Feng scored 33 points again in this game.
This is the first time this season that Ge Feng scored 30+ points and the Lakers lost.
Ge Feng's status as the leader of the group in the new season was finally confirmed.
In addition to complaining about Ge Feng, the "leader of the empty-cut group", the fans also complained more about the attributes of Davis' glass man.
Davis has never played a full regular-season game in his career, missing 15-24 games a year due to injuries.
Davis's performance makes it difficult for Lakers fans to believe that he is a superstar.
Instead, Davis is more of a drag.
In the first year of Davis and LeBron's union, the two of them were injured in turn. As a result, the Lakers didn't even make the playoffs that year.
Could it be that history will repeat itself this time? !
That story was too dramatic!
The Lakers only won the championship last year. If they can't even make it to the playoffs this year, it would be ridiculous.
Fans' dissatisfaction with the Lakers is getting louder and louder.
For a while, in addition to being full of doubts about the injury-prone Davis, the fans also had huge doubts about the Lakers' several deals this season.
Schroeder's effect at the 1st position is not as good as that of the 2nd position, but the Lakers do not lack the 2nd position, what they lack is the 1st position.
Many fans suggested that the Lakers should use Schroder to trade an All-Star point guard.
If the Lakers do not have an excellent organizer in the backcourt, even if Davis returns from injury, his lethality will be greatly reduced.
After James left, Davis's data declined in all aspects, which shows that the Lakers' backcourt organization ability is very problematic.
Back in Los Angeles, when Ge Feng went to the arena for extra practice, he saw Davis, who was still trying to keep his touch soft, with a thick bandage around his waist.
Davis' shooting touch doesn't look bad, and his mid-range and three-point shooting percentages are very high.
Although the shooting percentage during training is completely different from the shooting percentage during the game, at least the scene in front of him shows that Davis has no intention of taking it lightly.
Instead, Davis is still dissatisfied with his performance.
Ge Feng walked towards Davis. At this time, Davis was already sweating profusely from training.
Tick-tick-tick-
Davis saw Ge Feng walking towards him and stopped what he was doing.
On the basketball court at this time, there was only the sound of Davis' sweat dripping on the floor.
"Hey, AD, your complexion looks very bad, I think you may need some nutritional supplements." Ge Feng half-jokingly said to Davis.
Davis didn't speak, turned around and continued to shoot.
Ge Feng shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Actually, you don't need to feel pressure at all. The schedule has not passed halfway yet. The team's current loss is completely within the expectations of the two of us, isn't it?"
Ge Feng's words seemed to be on point.
Davis cautiously came to the rest area and sat down.
"What's the use of knowing? The team is still going to lose! We have nothing to do! It's disgusting! I came to the Lakers to win the championship, but so many things happened to me!" Davis' tone seemed a little annoyed.
Ge Feng knew that Davis was alluding to LeBron leaving the Lakers.
Davis left the Pelicans with a huge infamy the year before last. Didn't he just want to join forces with LeBron in the Lakers and win a few more championships?
As a result, less than two years after Davis came to the Lakers, the situation in the NBA has changed so much.
Brother basketball is no longer popular, and what fans want to see is the ultimate one-man-one-city personal hero basketball.
Even though Davis won the NBA championship last season, he was overwhelmed by Butler who was fighting alone.
After last season, the Lakers who won the championship were called shameless by the fans, but Butler, who fought alone, became a hero.
You know, this was impossible to happen when brother basketball was just emerging.
In the new season, James resolutely chose to return to Cleveland in order to maintain his reputation.
Even if James never wins the championship trophy again, he will not make a choice that damages his reputation.
LeBron is a player who values his reputation more than his life.
At this point, no matter how much Davis persuaded LeBron to stay during the offseason, LeBron still left him.
"Davis, cheer up, the team needs you, and the playoffs cannot do without you. You are the boss of this team, and the players are still waiting for you to lead them to realize the value of life!" Ge Feng encouraged Davis.
Davis looked up at this moment.
"Ge Feng, don't say such things. You are the boss of the Lakers! I can't use my brain, and I'm not a person who can be the boss of the team. I can't even take care of myself, and I don't have the mood to take care of the emotions of other people on the team. I just want to find someone who tells me what to do, and I just do it! That's why I joined the Lakers! I want LeBron to lead me forward!"
