Today's game between the Lakers and the Nuggets can be said to give Lakers fans a lot of confidence to deal with this year's playoffs, because the Lakers gave the Nuggets a downturn from the beginning. Doncic continued to score with his individual ability, scoring 21 points in the first quarter, and he was able to demand it against the Nuggets' defense, and it seemed that no one could limit him. Although Jokic didn't play today, the Nuggets' defense is technically better, because Jokic is more likely to be targeted by Doncic when he is on the floor. On offense alone, the Lakers seem to have developed a set of tactics that can't be solved.

This tactic is that in the situation of the opponent's flank, Doncic uses his individual ability to play alone. There are very few players in the league who can defend Doncic alone, and he can use his individual ability to score points against most teams. But if the opponent starts to pinch Doncic, then the Lakers will have another way to deal with it, that is, Doncic uses his passing ability to constantly find open spots for other players.

Nowadays, the rest of the Lakers' players have a very strong grasp of the open space, whether it is Finney Smith or Vincent or Knecht, they can all hit three-pointers consistently after getting the open space. So this is equivalent to giving the opponent two bottles of poison, and Doncic can't be prevented by a single defense, if Doncic is pinched, the Lakers can find an open space through a quick running ball, and they can also give the opponent a fatal blow.

So now the entire tactical system of the Lakers has been established, and Reaves is also very strong in his individual ability at the moment. If the Lakers want to win more games in the playoffs, maybe their approach is to establish a more solid defensive quality as much as possible, and to maintain the defensive end in every game, and use defense to drive the offense, only in this way can the Lakers go further in the playoffs. Fortunately, Reaves and Doncic are also constantly improving their defense, and if the Lakers can not become a leak in these two points, then there are very few opponents who can match the Lakers in the playoffs, because they have too many talented players with high ball quotient on the offensive end.
