In the NBA regular season, the Lakers lost to the Hawks 102-122 away from home.
After the game, freelance writer Zhang Jiawei commented on the game. The original text is as follows:
The Lakers lost to the Hawks: a bit disappointed.
Redick was very angry after the game, saying that there was no highlight in the game and that he knew it was going to be bad in the first two minutes.
What exactly is so bad?
At the beginning, Luka fed Ayton the ball, and Ayton had a buttery hand - very much Kwame Brown.
Then the Hawks attacked the basket four times, two of which were very interesting:
Gueye broke through, and Dyson cut inside; Smart and Luka were both pointing, "Who is filling in here?" Then Smart rotated on the weak side, and Dyson strolled for a layup.
Wallace passed the ball, Smart hit Gueye's three-pointer, and Gueye directly broke through and shot.
The Hawks did not indulge in long-range shots throughout the game, but used the Lakers to attack the outside and make a lot of cuts: they scored 62 points inside.
The Lakers lost 36 points to the Hawks due to mistakes; they lost 22 points on the fast break; they were beaten 62 points in the paint: "There are three starters on the opposite side that I don't know, so just win by just playing" - and then lost.
Today Luka still had 22 points and assists in the first half, but 0 points and 5 assists in the second half.
A small question:
The Eagles showed their stance at the beginning, leaving the bottom corner open, flanking Luka, and locking up the inside: Luka chose to make a strong shot. In fact, in the first half, Hachimura raised his hand on the weak side more than once, but Luka still chose to make a strong shot.
The most obvious goal in the second half: When Luka tried to break through, almost all five Eagles moved toward the strong side, taking away Luka's attack and forcing him to make a strong shot - weak side corner? Completely empty.
This is a gamble. The price is that the Lakers still hit 40% of the field goal percentage and scored 12 three-pointers, but Luka only made one shot within the free throw line.
With Reeves and LeBron away, the Hawks decided, "You are all shooters except Luka. No one can attack on the weak side. We will shrink and take away Luka's breakthrough. He will move the ball and we will pounce again!"
In this way, the Lakers are in a mess, partly due to a shortage of lineup, a few weak-side ball handlers were targeted by the Hawks, and partly due to a wrong mentality and unpreparedness, they were repeatedly penetrated by the Hawks' inside cuts.
Ayton admitted after the game: The Lakers underestimated the Hawks and did not watch the video before the game. "We were not prepared at all, and JJ also criticized us."
Due to lack of preparation, veterans like Smart will overdo it, and Laravia almost played the worst defense of the Lakers' career:
After all, Smart and Laravia are not Amen Thompson. They have no wild intuition and come first. They have to rely on anticipation and hard defense.
But today, the Lakers were unprepared and their mentality was wandering. It was like a candidate who had to memorize lecture notes every day to prepare. He felt that he could do without reviewing, so he took the blind test directly: when he looked at the questions, he found that they were all new questions.
So I failed the exam.
