Lakers vs Spurs, Lakers announced James' absence, Vogel revealed more insider information!
As we all know, at 8:30 a.m. Beijing time on October 27, the Lakers played against the Spurs, and the Lakers announced the starting lineup as: Russell Westbrook, Kent Bazemore, Malik Munch. Anthony Davis, DeAndre Jordan.
James is not in the starting lineup, because in the last game James's calf was injured, it was a rebounding time, James was hit in the calf when he landed, James fell to the ground, his expression was very painful, although James insisted on the game with an injury, but then James also said that he wanted to receive treatment for 24 hours, he still felt sore.
At 11 o'clock last night, the Lakers also announced that James was in doubt, and now James is not on the starting list.
However, this morning the Lakers officially updated the injury report for today's game that LeBron James (sore right ankle) will miss the game.
After that, Lakers coach Frank Vogel was interviewed before the game. Vogel said about LeBron James' absence today due to sore right ankle, Vogel said: "We are taking a marathon strategy. "Vogel means that the japanese side is long, not eager to let James play with injuries, and don't pay too much attention to winning or losing.
Vogel revealed that James did not have a pre-game warm-up today because James's right ankle was not a recurrence of last season's injury, but a different injury in another position, and the severity was different, so James was listed as a suspected state.
Vogel said Wayne Ellington was on the active list today due to James' absence, but he will most likely not play, it's just that Ellington is close to a comeback.
The Lakers this is a game without James, in the past everyone thought that the Lakers other players can not, but can not do without James, the Lakers in the absence of James in the case of the win rate is very low, but this time and then, now there is Westbrook, and Anthony, Anthony last outbreak, play the peak state, maybe another outbreak is not good.
There are also people who think that It is not good for Wei Shao and James to be present at the same time, because both people need the ball, there is a conflict, both people are very modest, pushing each other, but it leads to the team's offensive stumbling, not smooth enough, then today only Wei Shao, so you can test the real ability of Wei Shao in the case of no James, to see if It is good or not that Wei Shao and James lead the team separately, which is an important point to watch today.
Besides, the Spurs have no Mills, only one Murray, the Spurs lack major generals, Popovich is also a clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, so in this game, the Lakers even if James is absent, the strength is also the upper hand, no accident, the Lakers should win, of course, here is still on paper, the script content has to be written in the game, it must be very exciting!
