NBA – Huge controversy over Laker in distress. History has never suffered 5 consecutive defeats. Important decision: “He needs…

Austin Reaves (gauche) et LeBron James (droite) sous les couleurs des Los Angeles Lakers en NBA

With 5 defeats on the clock this season, the Lakers are experiencing some problems for this recovery. Injuries don’t help, just like the level of some, like Austin Reaves. But for this insider, a change is necessary in the lineup.

Among the favorites for the title at the start of the season, the Lakers have had difficulty winning in recent matches. 3 defeats in a row for LeBron James’ teammates, with Anthony Davis in the infirmary following a hip injury. He should return quickly but supporters are worried about the upcoming deadlines. It must be said that some players are far from being at the level.

A problem in the Lakers locker room?

We could talk about D’Angelo Russell but it’s Austin Reaves who interests us today. The number 15 signed a big contract this summer and must now take on the floor, which he finds difficult to do. His numbers are not catastrophic, but we feel a clear drop in performance, particularly in defense. Brian Windhorst has his opinion on the matter.

 

Brian Windhorst: “Austin Reaves is better than what he’s showing today…I don’t think he’s put in a position where he can succeed because he needs the ball in his hands to do that. But he starts with LeBron and Russell, and those guys need the ball too. They may have to change everyone to “unblock” Austin Reaves. »

Reaves was used to having the ball a little more last year, but it’s also up to him to adapt to his team’s changes. Among the supporters, the case of the rear divides a lot in any case.

 

He’s a back not a leader

Austin should be in the second unit, it makes more sense that way.

Disappointing this season, Austin Reaves could find the bench to maximize his talent. In any case, this is the suggestion of Brian Windhorst, clearly supported by the supporters. Something will have to change at the Lakers if the losses continue.
