NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

Now a wave of injuries strikes.

Both Tucker and Livingston were injured for the Lakers.

The Warriors, Cavaliers, Rockets, Eagles and other teams all suffered from different injuries.

But fortunately, there is no problem with the core players of several teams.

But even this sounded a wake-up call for everyone.

And the Lakers' next opponent, the Raptors, is also a big problem.

The Raptors' record has continued to rise in recent seasons.

Especially this season, the Raptors' perimeter combination headed by Lowry and DeRozan has achieved quite good results.

Coupled with the rise of Varan, Rose and others, the Raptors have become a powerful team in the East this season.

But only Chen Tian knew that this pair of Raptors' perimeter duo would become the nba's famous playoff trash brothers in the future.

But it can only be said that Lowry was held back by DeRozan.

You must know that Lowry's performance in the playoffs has always been good.

But DeRozan really felt numb when he met James, and he didn't know what was going on.

It's impossible to rely on only one Lowry to beat James.

But this game is not easy for the Lakers, not just because of the team's injuries.

The continuous away games have also increased the fatigue of the players.

Monty finally had to make a decision, which was to rest Jokic in rotation.

Let Hawes and Yi Jianlian start.

This gave Seth Curry and the mascot Thackeray a chance to play.

Soon the game of the night began.

Although the Lakers are troubled by injuries, it is still not easy for the Raptors to win with Chen Tian.

After the opening, DeRozan began to play.

Consecutive back hit jr, and mid-range shots scored.

It also allowed the Raptors to lead the Lakers for a time.

But soon Chen Tian began to play.

With the same number of offenses, Terrence Ross's defense was redundant when facing Chen Tian's offense.

Because no matter how Rose defends, Chen Tian has room to score the ball.

The situation in the first quarter was pretty good. With Chen Tian's performance, the Lakers still had a similar match with the Raptors.

But at the beginning of the second quarter, both teams came from the bench.

Motiejunas and Cannan, who were traded with the Rockets, began to play at this time.

First, Motel used his footsteps on the inside to directly pass Thackeray, and scored with an easy throw.

When Chen Tian, ​​who was on the bench, saw the ball, he immediately covered his eyes.

Thackeray was so shaken by Motel that he couldn't even find Bei.

Monty and Kaleman frowned when they saw it.

After that, Kannan also played well, receiving a pass from Motel on the outside and hitting a three-pointer.

Fortunately, Curry's performance here is fairly stable.

But the Lakers' inside line was completely blown up.

There was no other way, Monty could only replace Chen Tian in advance.

Otherwise, during this period of time, the Raptors will soon open the score.

After replacing Chen Tian, ​​Chen Tian, ​​Brewer, and Ariza also formed a striker group.

This had a big impact on Motel.

But soon the Raptors also made substitutions.

DeRozan was replaced directly.

Chen Tian directly played the entire second quarter, but the score still did not open.

In the second half, the fatigue on the Lakers' side appeared.

Many people have the problem of defensive distraction on the court.

That is, the monster Chen Tian is not bad.

Del Nudova, who has always been good at defense, also has problems with defense.

Facing Lowry's offense, he was distracted several times.

In this situation, neither Monty nor Chen Tian intended to blame them.

Because everyone is tired at this time.

At the end of the third quarter, the Raptors opened up the score.

In the end, Monty also gave up the game directly, and replaced all the substitutes in the fourth quarter.

In the end, the Raptors won the Lakers at home.

The Lakers also swallowed their ninth loss of the season.

After that, the Lakers will have a day off, and then the last two away games.

It is also the last two games in March.

Still two back-to-back games.

But in these two games, the opponents were not very strong.

One is the Brooklyn Nets, and the other is the Philadelphia 76ers.

Of these two teams, one is hovering on the edge of the playoffs, and the other is still rebuilding at all.

So facing these two teams, the Lakers are still very confident.

But this confidence was shattered after arriving in Brooklyn.

The Lakers suffered another injury, and Hawes' ankle became red and swollen for some reason.

It's impossible to fight.

No way, Monty also quickly transferred people from Los Angeles.

Ryan Kelly and Xavier Henry, who had been playing in the Development League, were transferred.

The same Hawes was also sent back to Los Angeles.

This situation made the Lakers who were already not so good even worse.

And the same is true of the Warriors.

The Warriors are even more serious than the Lakers. The head star Curry also injured his wrist. Judging from the situation, it seems that he will not be able to return until the playoffs.

In this wave of injuries, not only the teams, but also the media have found topics.

Especially a team like the Lakers has become the focus of the media.

But the good thing is that Kelly and Henry's immediate combat power is still good.

But when it came time to face the Nets, Chen Tian could tell something was wrong.

Jr couldn't prevent Joe Johnson's offense at all, and Henry didn't make a good contribution when he came off the bench.

Fortunately, Chen Tian and Jokic cooperated well.

Turn Daluo around for fun.

However, Kelly's performance as a substitute made Chen Tian's eyes shine.

But there is still a problem, that is, the defense is really bad.

At the end of halftime, the Lakers only led the Nets by one point.

In the second half, Deron on the Nets side and Plumlee on the inside started to play.

Plumlee received a pass from Deron and completed the finish inside consecutively.

But Chen Tian's performance here was stable, so the Nets had no chance to overtake the score.

Chen Tian didn't rest for a minute in this match.

And most of the team's shots were made by Chen Tianlai.

If it weren't for the help of jr, Yi Jianlian and others around him, the game might really be suspended.

But it doesn't matter if Chen Tian plays the whole game, but what the team needs is to find a way to win.

Then Monty said something.

"Okay, it's almost done, it's time for you to work hard."

Hearing this, Chen Tian felt a little dazed.

There is a feeling of being bought.

Immediately, Chen Tian also looked at Monty with malicious intentions.

Monty, who was being targeted, didn't look at Chen Tian at all.
