JJ Redick unsure if LA Lakers can maintain their warm form in playoffs: ‘They’re going to have problems half-court’

Although, Los Angeles Lakers He’s made a mess in the last few games, not a single player on the roster is a certified 3-pointer on the team. With the shaping of modern basketball, JJ Reddick on your podcast The old man and the Three made a valid point. Reddick says it’s nearly impossible to hit a good shot with a good shot in modern basketball.

The Lakers are currently in good standing and have won 6 of their last 8 games. Some of these victories have also come against the best teams in the league. But JJ Reddick doesn’t think the Lakers are playoff contenders yet. HE aforementioned“I still think they’re seen as a legitimate contender… because when we get to the playoffs without proper clearance and enough shots, they’re going to have trouble scoring goals in the half-court.“It’s true that the Lakers shot well, but the crucial question is how long the Lakers can sustain such shots.

But Reddick made an interesting point that bridges the gap between Davis’ current MVP-level form and the Los Angeles Lakers shootout. Reddick, “If Anthony Davis is playing like a top 5 player at this level, the lack of shots might not matter.“Post-season basketball is very different because the game slows down, the defense is down and going to the basket is not the first choice player and the coaches come to the court together.

They’ve won a championship and have strayed completely from that in the past two seasons.JJ Reddick aforementioned.

However, Reddick also made it clear that the skyrocketing shooting percentages may have increased due to Anthony Davis’ performance. “I think there’s something corresponding here with their shooting off the ball and Anthony Davis’ bouncing.said.
