At the beginning of the season, the Lakers and the Nets were regarded by us as the favorites to win the championship, these two teams have a large number of superstars, winning is a matter of course, but unfortunately their performance makes us very disappointed, the Lakers are currently in the eighth place in the West, if you do not count the result of today's game, the winning rate is less than fifty percent, and the Nets, although ranked third in the East, but the results are not ideal, today the two teams met, the victory between the brothers and sisters belongs to the Lakers.
After Davis finally returned, the core players were all healthy, and the Lakers had no reason to lose, and the starting players they sent out in this game were Davis, James, Westbrook, Bradley and Johnson. Because it was the Nets' home game, Irving could not play, and Durant was recuperating from injuries and was also not on the list of players participating in the game, so the Nets lineup was not in order, and the starting players they sent were Harden, Mills, Edwards, Sharp and Bembry.
The Lakers scored thirty-three points in the first quarter, while the Nets only scored twenty-five points, an eight-point difference. In the second quarter, the two sides scored only one point apart, and it was still the Lakers who scored more, and the gap did not reach double digits after the end of the first half. The Lakers scored more than thirty points again in the third quarter, and with the performance of this quarter, the difference between the two teams finally reached doubles. In the fourth quarter, both teams fell into an offensive slump at the same time, and neither scored more than twenty points in a single quarter, which disappointed the fans, who were actually the favorite team to win the championship.
The Lakers defeated the Nets 106-96, and there were a total of 4 equal points in this game, the Lakers led by 15 points at most, the Nets led by 4 points at most, and the point difference after the game was 10 points, and the victory belonged to the Lakers.

The Nets didn't do well, shooting less than thirty percent from three-point range and just over forty percent from the field, harden got a triple-double statistic, but his teammates didn't give a, only Mills and Bembrey scored in doubles, and the other players had very low shooting percentages. The Lakers also did not achieve the performance we expected, only James data is good, Davis has no effect on both ends of the attack, Westbrook can only be considered decent, the Big Three is just that.
In an interview after the game, Davis said that his recovery was very good and he believed that he would gradually get better. To be honest, Davis's first game after his return was not as good as Thompson,Thompson said goodbye to the game for two seasons, and Davis was far less than this number, indicating that Davis's body has not yet healed, and what he dreams of is health.
