On January 6th, Beijing time, in an NBA regular season game that has already ended today, the Lakers lost to the Rockets 115-119 away from home, missing out on a three-game winning streak. This game was very dramatic, with the Lakers once trailing by a large margin in the first half, but then making three consecutive turnovers in the final moments of the fourth quarter to lose the game. At the beginning, both teams were back and forth, with the scores tied together. In the middle section, Green's big explosion helped the Rockets quickly take a double-digit lead; in the second quarter, the Rockets always controlled the situation on the court, maintaining a double-digit lead, with a maximum lead of 22 points; but in the second half, the Lakers' three-pointers suddenly opened up, and under James' leadership, they continuously hit three-pointers to narrow the gap. At the end, they relied on Davis' inside advantage to reduce the gap to only 2 points. In the fourth quarter, the Rockets scored 10-0 again to extend the lead to 12 points; then after Davis came on, the Lakers continued to make a wave of high tide to reduce the gap to only 2 points; at the critical moment, Green and VanVleet stood up to score, followed by Davis' three-pointer and James' breakthrough layup as well as Shen Jing's 2 free throws and 1 made gave the Lakers a chance, but in the last 6 seconds, the Lakers made the most fatal mistake: Christie made a turnover when throwing the sideline ball, and VanVleet…

On January 6th, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued. In today's Western Conference matchup, the Lakers lost 115-119 to the Rockets on the road, ending their two-game winning streak with a record of 20 wins and 15 losses. Facing the young Rockets, the Lakers started very poorly. The Lakers scored 22 points in the first quarter but allowed the Rockets to score as many as 36 points on defense. In the second quarter, the Lakers still had few options and were pulled away by the Rockets to a lead of up to 22 points. In the third quarter, James exploded with four three-pointers in a single quarter, once helping the Lakers close the gap to just two points. However, due to being pulled away again by the Rockets at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers ultimately missed out on a 22-point comeback. For the Lakers, it was a great pity that they failed to complete a 22-point comeback today. In the final moments of the game, the Lakers were not without chances to win. With 38 seconds left in the game, the Lakers were only down by 4 points, but James was called for a foul after pushing down Armoni Brooks on offense, missing a good opportunity to catch up. After the Rockets missed a shot, James made a layup to reduce the deficit to 2 points. The Rockets' Zhou Qi made one of two free throws, giving the Lakers a chance, but the Lakers' sideline ball was intercepted by the Rockets. Christie passed to James, who…

The recent performance of the Rockets has been quite disappointing, especially with regard to Coach Udoka's tactical arrangements. Looking back at the game, the team's performance was simply incomprehensible. After Jovic scored a crucial three-pointer, Udoka finally called a timeout. Everyone thought this might be a turning point, but what happened? The team's offense became even more disorganized after the timeout. In fact, Udoka's problems were exposed as early as the previous game. At that time, he was afraid to call a timeout and didn't know how to inbound the ball. Now he does call timeouts, but the results are not satisfactory. Speaking of inbound passes, Coach Li Nan probably knows to use a big man like Zhou Qi to inbound the ball, but Udoka chose Fan Tong instead. In the last game against the Bucks, Fan Tong's view was completely blocked, forcing him to lob the ball high to his teammate, which almost flew out of bounds. This time, when Fan Tong was inbounding, he couldn't even see his teammates, only the nose and armpit hair of the defenders. Besides inbound passes, the Rockets' defense is also riddled with problems. There are numerous defensive lapses, and they often fail to box out for rebounds. Udoka, who is known as the "best defensive coach," had a performance that left everyone stunned. The opponents easily broke through the defense, making the Rockets' defense virtually non-existent. Players like Green and Dillon tried hard to score, but the overall tactics were chaotic, disrupting the offensive rhythm. Especially Fan Tong, who has been in…
