The Lakers are going to have to find ways to use their two highest-paid players to win games without Davis tying things together.
As of Monday morning, the Lakers are 12th in the Western Conference standings, and they are six games behind the first-place New Orleans Pelicans . They’re 1.5 games behind the Dallas Mavericks and Minnesota Timberwolves for a play-in slot and 3.5 games behind the Portland Trail Blazers for a top-6 spot.without Anthony Davis to help close.
, there has been a lull in Westbrook trade buzz. The Lakers are said to be satisfied with Westbrook’s off-the-bench role, allowing them to stagger minutes more with James. Now, the connective tissue of Davis, who can play with either, is out for the foreseeable future. Don’t the Lakers need to find a way to get their two max contract players out on the floor together more?
When asked about the on-court strengths, Ham mentioned that they are effective when the Lakers need to switch, especially covering pick-and-rolls. They improve communication on the floor, and they both are dynamic rollers to the rim. But there’s evidence, too, that they’re closer this season. There have been more plays and sequences when James and Westbrook celebrate one another. They are more forthcoming and complementary of each other in postgame interviews, which is no small thing in a somewhat political game. They didn’t speak as highly of each other last season. Finding more success in the last month can ease the strain on even the most strenuous team dynamics.
