2022 is coming to an end, and this year is not so smooth for the Lakers. A series of bad things came one after another, so let’s review the Lakers this year through 10 things in chronological order.
1. Heavy eyebrows are repeatedly injured
In the 2021-22 season, Anthony Davis missed 17 games due to the tear of the collateral ligament of the left knee, and then missed 18 games due to a severe sprain of the right ankle. He only played 40 games last season, with less than 50% attendance. The Lakers have not been able to play in the full lineup.
When he was just playing this season, his heavy eyebrows suffered stress damage to his right foot again. According to Shams, he will not be able to return until at least the middle of January. The Lakers have cast a shadow again this season.
2.33 wins and 49 losses in the regular season → class is over Vogel’s
The 21-22 season failed in the 360 combination test and experienced a disappointing season. The Lakers only won 33 wins and 49 losses. The Lakers missed the playoffs for the second time in the James era (play-offs). The Lakers management made a decision to change immediately after the regular season ending war. → Fame: Lakers will fire coach Vogel’s there is no specific candidate at present
However, in terms of hindsight, given Ham’s performance this season, it seems that Vogel’s is just a backhoe.
3. Choose ham as the coach
After leaving office Vogel’s, the Lakers started the manager selection for more than a month, and finally chose Hamm who had no coach experience among ham, Stotz and Atkinson, the latter served as the assistant professor of the Lakers from 2011 to 13, and followed Budenholzer as the assistant professor of the Eagle and the stag from 2013 to 22. He won the championship with the stag last year.
According to subsequent reports, the reason why the Lakers chose Ham was that he was the only one among the three who had the courage to make Wei Shao play the substitute. → Shams: Ham is the only one who has the courage to make Wei Shao play a substitute during the Lakers’ election this summer.
4. Anthony and Howard left the team
Last season, the Lakers were criticized for being old and slow with no defense. So in the off season, the Lakers did not choose to leave two Hall of Fame members Anthony and Howard, and instead signed the new forces such as Thomas Bryant and Lonnie Walker.
Anthony is still a free agent and seems to have no plans to retire. Howard has moved overseas and came to the Taiwan League of China to continue to distribute waste heat.
5. Weishao + two first-round signatures changed to the whole alliance
From the beginning of the offseason to the beginning of the new season, rumors about the two first-round deals of weishao + were flying all over the sky. The trading objects that had spread rumors with the Lakers were Owen, Turner, Hilde, Peltel, Richardson, mitchell, Conley, Boyang, Bill, Lavin, drozan, etc. are called “two first-round signatures are changed into the whole alliance”.
Since weishao received the miracle of playing the substitute, the main trading quotation of the Lakers has become Beverly + Nunn + first round signing, but the latest situation is that the Lakers do not want to trade again.→ no transaction! The Lakers are seriously considering spending the season with the current lineup.
6. Deal with Beverly
In late 8 months, the Lakers and Jazz reached a deal, specifically for the Lakers to send Horton-Tucker and Stanley-Johnson in exchange for Beverly from jazz. The Lakers also hope Beverly can bring tough defense and outside fire to the team. → Fame: Beverly’s deal to the Lakers has been completed. Tucker + Stanley Johnson joined the Jazz.
However, this season, the Lakers Beverly did not play in the state of the Timberwolves last season. So far this season, he has averaged 6 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.9 steals, with a three-point hit rate of only. In contrast, Beverly scored 9.2 points per game last season, 4.1 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.2 steals, with a three-point hit rate.
7. Wei Shao’s replacement
At the beginning of the new season, Hamm made a decisive change after starting with 0 wins and 5 losses, making Wei Shao substitute and gaining unexpected results. After running in for a while, the Lakers had a chemical reaction and won 8 out of 10 games at one time. However, with the heavy eyebrows injured again, the Lakers fell into a low ebb again.
8. There is oil in James’s tank
Although the influence on the outcome of the game may not be as good as the peak. However, in the year when James was 37 years old, his average score still reached 30 + → James was 37 years old. The last time he scored 30 + was 21 years old. In the battle of today’s birthday night, James even cut 47 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists, proving to the world that he is still the omnipotent James.
9. The Lakers’ record is still bad
In 2022, the Lakers played 81 games in total, with 30 wins and 51 losses, with a winning rate of only 37 percent. This season’s 14 wins and 21 losses (temporarily ranked 13th in the West) are almost the same as the regular season’s 33 wins and 49 losses last season. The Lakers are still standing still and have not solved the problem of misalignment. However, this does not seem to be solved by making one or two deals. The Lakers still have a long resistance in 2023.
10. James put pressure on management
A few days ago, after the heat was defeated, James spoke severely rarely. → James: I still want to win the championship. If the lineup is suitable, I can bring performance to any team. Obviously, James no longer believes that the Lakers have appropriate puzzles to maximize his ability and compete for the championship this season. So, where is the way for James and the Lakers?
