If the Lakers' Anthony Davis keeps up his recent hot streak, his name should be near the top of MVP ballots next year, JeffZillgitt writes.
For year's its been agreed upon that the Western Conference was more superior than the East, but the tides seem to be turning. Tony Anders, Mike Sykes and Charles Curtis debate.At the 3-point line. In the low post. In the mid-range.
"But for me, just being locked in and staying with mindset of being aggressive and not taking a game off and coming out with a mindset of dominating and doing whatever I’ve got to do to help the team win, whether it’s scoring, rebounding, blocking shots. Whatever it is, just trying to do my part.” Have the Lakers turned their season around and will they be a relevant participant in the championship chase? It’s too early to tell, a 10-game sample size too small and let’s see where the Lakers are following this trip that concludes with the Cavs, Toronto, Philadelphia and Detroit.
There is a decided difference between Los Angeles’ first 12 games and their past 10 games. They are much better offensively, have rebounded better and committed fewer turnovers and contributions from Lonnie Walker IV, Austin Reaves and Westbrook have led to victories. “He and I developed a rapport, a trust,” Ham said of Westbrook. “I don’t look it as a demotion – just realigning our lineup and our rotation in terms of finding different ways to get ’Bron and AD the ball and be on the floor. Let those two do their two-man thing. Then ‘I’ll bring you off the bench with your crew. You’ll be able to orchestrate and dictate, knowing all the time what we want to get.
