James Harden’s new big performance to knock out the Lakers

Facing the Rockets, the Lakers are far from reassuring this Thursday evening. Even if LeBron James was not in the game, Frank Vogel’s men will have to pull themselves together. James Harden had no mercy.

3 defeats in 5 games: this is now the record of the Lakers in the bubble. No doubt, Frank Vogel’s men are one of the worst teams in the league in Orlando, and these statistics reminded us. This Thursday night, the Californian franchise certainly did not reassure when it came time to challenge the Rockets.

In front, Russell Westbrook was not there. A little rest for the leader who has given himself a lot in recent games. LeBron James was absent for pain in the groin area. We can especially see it as a way to breathe.

Or maybe to hide his frustration? The King confirmed an existing problem in the Angelinos locker room. We can not say that things will get better after the performance against Houston. The Texans easily won Thursday night, 113/97. And of course, it was James Harden who decided to do the show in this meeting.

Le Barbu had no mercy for a team that seems almost in distress: 39 points to 11/19 shooting, 12 assists and 8 rebounds. The full-back was everywhere last night to offer the victory to his team. We will note all the same the 10 losses of ball, but they were not harmful for his teammates.

Anthony Davis was there, but shy. He only took 8 shots for 5 successful. He finished at 17 units. Kyle Kuzma is the top scorer in the crimson and gold side with 21 points. Facing the Bearded Man, all that is not forgiving.

It doesn’t have to be madness in the Lakers’ locker room. Even if the first place in the West is validated, the services provided today are worrying.
