Throughout the game, the Lakers shot 43.6% from the field and only shot 26.9% from three-pointers. James said: "We are facing the second team in the league (regular season record), and we still need to hit shots. We spent a lot of energy on the defensive end. Booker was obviously in good shape tonight and shot a lot, but we still limited the Suns' score to 99 points. We need to control the ball better and put more pressure on their defense. We didn't do that tonight. "
The conflict broke out with the Lakers' grandson.
In the last quarter, Paul fouled James when he was rebounding. James fell to the ground in pain and his shoulder was hurt. The slow-motion playback showed that Paul had a bad action of pulling James' arm, which was also inappropriate.
When James fell to the ground injured, there was a fierce conflict between the players of the two teams. Joan made a deliberate gesture of hitting her. Then caruso pushed Jean, and Jean hit Jean with the ball. They had an argument. Harel stepped forward to replace caruso, directly to Payne. The players of the two teams got together and almost caused a large-scale conflict. After the video playback, the referee blew the technical fouls of harel and caruso, and Payne was expelled.
