The Lakers are on a five-game winning streak after winning the Clippers today, and their overall momentum is very strong at the moment, and James has been in excellent personal form in recent times, contributing about 30 points in almost every game, even though it was a back-to-back game today, James still scored 28 points. James seems to see the Lakers' hope of winning the championship at the moment, so he spares no effort in his style of play. There are some similarities with the Warriors, Curry has also been very good in recent times, because Curry can also intuitively see that the Warriors have gotten better, so these superstars tend to maximize their abilities when they think the team has a chance to compete for a championship.

The Lakers are just one win away from the second-place Nuggets in the West after winning five straight games, and they have every chance of placing themselves in second place in the West. And after they won the Nuggets by a big score in the last game, they are more confident to deal with the Nuggets again. At present, the Lakers are not afraid of any opponent in the West, and the Thunder really have to be careful of the challenges that the Lakers bring to them in the playoffs, because the Lakers do not seem to be afraid when facing the Thunder, and they seem to have a counter-attacking style of play.

Although the Lakers don't have a good interior line these days, Redick has brought out the essence of the small lineup. At present, the Lakers' small lineup is more effective on the court than with Davis before. In the past, when there was Davis, the Lakers often made mistakes in rotation defense on the court, which would give the opponent a lot of opportunities to shoot easy threes, but now the small lineup is more tightly defensive.

The Lakers currently have a lot of defensive stalwarts on the roster, such as Finney Smith, Vanderbilt, Vincent, etc. When it comes to the playoffs, they're more than capable of dealing with superstars from other teams. Even against the Thunder, against Alexander, they can send these players to defend in turn. So when it comes to the playoffs, the Lakers may be stronger, because James is very experienced in the playoffs, and he also knows where to make a difference. James may have to go out of his way for the fifth championship ring of his career, and we have a chance to see the full force of James in action in this year's playoffs.
