However, in addition to the excellent performance of Brother Thick Eyebrows, why did the Lakers still lose to the Green Army?
The bottom line is that their team will play more perfectly in this game, especially when they are facing a strong team.

On this issue, Lao Zhan and Hamm each expressed their opinions after the game. James gives two reasons for the team's current awkward situation: First, the team isn't strong enough to compete with the top teams in the league;Secondly, the team has not yet figured out where they are and what they are going to do in every race.
In 37 minutes of play, James shot 5 of 14, scored 16 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists, and lost 11. In this game, James also felt pain from the collision with Jaylen Brown, but he still persevered despite the injury.
After the game, Ham credited the defeat of the game with their mistakes in defensive shifts, rebounding and turnovers.
"We want to win the league and we shouldn't be bothered by the little things," he said. "The Lakers were slightly lacking in rebounding over the course of the round, and they had four more turnovers than their opponents, 12-8. Overall, this win has shown us a lot of things to improve.
