Golden State EXPOSED The Lakers' Biggest WEAKNESS

Golden State exposed the root of all problems for the Lakers this season. As we stop the play right here, watch how all 5 Warriors are in the paint. They literally leave Lebron open on the wing, Austin Reeves in the corner, and Russell Westbrook is all alone up top. The pass goes to him but what is he supposed to do with a clogged up paint like this. Obviously you can’t drive inside, you simply have to take this shot. Which he does, and misses. As the Lakers lost the season opener, even Lebron admitted that this roster has a huge problem. Let me show you why it’s going to be tough for the Lakers. What up everybody, my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it. Just watch what happens here as James gets the ball on the elbow, surveys the floor and sees 5 defenders in front of him. After 5 seconds of staring at a double team, with no movement from his teammates, finally there’s a cut and a reposition for an open three but that misses as well. In fact 30 out of the 40 shots from downtown that the Lakers fired away were misses as They shot a horrific 25% in the season opener. The Warriors played the percentages focusing on the paint and willingly went under on screens forcing the Lakers to make shots. It’s almost strange how Lebron still managed to get to 31 points despite facing multiple defenders for the majority of the game. On this drive as we stop it right here, he is triple teamed. And with Divincenzo and Kuminga ready to intercept a potential pass down low, James somehow flings it to Toscano Anderson out on the three point line he fires away and once again can not get it to go. Another similar situation right here, driving with 3 guys around him, James jumps and fires a pass on the money to the wide open Matt Ryan who also couldn’t knock it down. Realistically, the Lakers are not going to miss all of these every game, and some of it was definitely a bit of bad luck with such great open looks. But at the same time, as Lebron said it himself, a lot of players were open for a reason. With an obvious weakness in the roster, this interview looked like one of those classic Lebron cryptic messages- this time signaling to Rob Pelinka that he may have to pull the trigger on some trades. Do you agree or am I overreacting to just 1 game? The Lakers may need to sign me, after my 100 three shootout that I did for the season predictions. I caught fire so check it out right here. Talk to you in the next one, peace out.
