Riaan Ubengumdlali ongcono kakhulu enkundleni ngenani elibanzi ngeSonto, ongcono kunoStephen Curry, ongcono kunoKlay Thompson, ongcono kunoDraymond Green.
Anthony Davis bekungamandla.
Nge LeBron James Ebhentshini eligqoke izingubo zomgwaqo kanye nebhuthi yokuhamba, uDavis uthole amaphuzu aphezulu we-39 kuLakers’ 113-105 ukunqoba ngaphezu kweGolden State Warriors e-Crypto.com Arena.
UDavis waqoqa ama-rebound ayisishiyagalombili. Wasabalalisa abasizi abayisithupha. Uvimbe izibhamu ezimbili washintsha ezinye eziningi.
Uyisizathu sokukholelwa kuso laba Lakers.
Nansi isitatimende: Uyisizathu sokungakholwa.
AbakwaLaker bangase babe nakho bathuthukise uhlelo lwabo ngenyanga edlule, uDavis angase abathwale lapho uJames engekho futhi iNkomfa yaseNtshonalanga ingase ivuleke, kodwa inkinga eyinhloko yeqembu isalokhu ifana.
Abadlali ababili iLakers incike kakhulu kwabadlali abangancika kubo kancane ukuthi babe senkantolo.
Lokhu akuyona into entsha, okuguquguqukayo okungaguquki kumasizini amane lapho uJames noDavis bedlale ndawonye kuLakers.
Uyazi ukuthi lokhu kuphetha kanjani. Ubonile ukuthi lokhu kuphetha kanjani.
Ukuphela kwesikhathi lapho uJames noDavis bobabili babephile kahle ekupheleni kwesizini yilapho abakwaLakers bewina umqhudelwano wabo we-bubble, futhi kwazi bani ukuthi ngabe lokho bekuyoba njalo ukube ubhubhane aluzange luphoqe i-NBA ukuthi ithathe ikhefu lezinyanga ezimbili ngaphambi komdlalo. ama-playoffs.
I-Lakers iwine imidlalo yayo emihlanu kweyisikhombisa edlule futhi iboshelwe ne-Utah Jazz indawo yokugcina emqhudelwaneni wokudlala, kodwa isimo sabo esithuthukisiwe sizwakala njengokugconwa okukhulu kunokubuka kuqala okuzayo.
Ngenxa yengxabano, yithi uJames uyabuya ngemva kokuhlolwa kabusha emasontweni amathathu. Yisho ukuthi udlala kahle njengoba enzile ngaphambi kokuthi alimale umsipha onyaweni lwangakwesokudla. Ithi bafinyelele emqhudelwaneni wokudlala. Ithi badlulela kuma-playoffs, lapho bazoba nochungechunge olunqobayo lomzuliswano wokuqala bebhekene ne-Denver Nuggets noma i-Memphis Grizzlies.
Noma kunjalo, yimaphi amathuba okuthi uJames noDavis bahlale bephilile ngokwanele ukuze bawine uchungechunge lwama-playoff amane elandelana?
Akukuhle, ngokomlando wabo.
Khumbula isizini ka-2020-21?
I-Lakers ehlaselwe ukulimala yaxhuga yangena kuma-playoffs, yawina umdlalo wokudlala ibhekene namaWarriors futhi yahola ngo 2-1 ibhekene ne-Phoenix Suns esele yesibili emzuliswaneni wokuqala. UDavis uqinise igroin yakhe kuGame 4 yalolo chungechunge futhi isizini yeLakers yabe isiphelile.
Njengoba iLakers ingena emuva kwesizini ejwayelekile, umqeqeshi uDarvin Ham uthe kuzomqoka ukuthi “ancike emigomeni yakho.”
Kungani?
“Izimo ziyashintsha ngesizini ye-NBA, ngokwezempilo, ukuthi ubani onaye ohlwini lwakho,” esho.
I-Lakers iyazi ukuthi isesimweni esibucayi.
Kungakho ihhovisi langaphambili lenqaba ukungena ngokuphelele kuleli qembu futhi alizange lihwebe ngokukhethwa kwalo komzuliswano wokuqala ngo-2027 nango-2029.

Kungakho uHam engazange adlale uDavis emdlalweni ngesonto eledlule e-Oklahoma City.
Vele, iLakers ayinakho ukunethezeka kokuphumula uDavis njalo, okuphakamisa ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi azikhandle ngendlela uJames enza ngayo lapho ejaha iqembu leligi. irekhodi lamagoli esikhathi sonke.
“Ngokusobala njengoba uBron ephumile,” kusho uDavis, “iqembu lizothembela kimi kakhulu ukuthi ngizenzele imidlalo, ngenzela abanye.”
Umdlalo ngaphambi kokuthi aqhulule amaphuzu angu-39 ebhekene namaWarriors, uDavis uthole angu-38 nge-a ukulahlekelwa yiMinnesota Timberwolves.
“Kuyindaba yokuphatha izinsuku zakho okungezona ezomdlalo, ukusebenza kahle kokwenzayo,” kusho uHam. “Izolo bekungolunye lwalezo zinsuku. Ifilimu [session] empeleni kwakuyisenzo sethu.”
Ngamanye amazwi, amaLakers azoqhubeka ebheka kuDavis ukuze enze ukukhiqizwa kukaJames futhi athandaze ukuthi angabhidli.
I-Lakers iyiqembu lokugcina lokuthi-ke uma engqungqutheleni egcwele ukuthi yini-uma.
Alikho iqembu elifana ne-Milwaukee Bucks noma i-Boston Celtics eNtshonalanga, yingakho kunomuzwa omkhulu kunokuvamile wokuthi imbangi ingabamba umbani ebhodleleni futhi ifinyelele kuma-NBA Finals.
Kuthiwani uma u-Kevin Durant ekwazi ukuhlangana ne-Phoenix Suns? Kuthiwani uma ukubuya kukaCurry kubuyisela amaWarriors endleleni? Kuthiwani uma uKyrie Irving eba inkanyezi efanelekile kaLuka Doncic?
Amathuba okuba uJames noDavis abanempilo eholele amaLakers abuyele enkazimulweni azizwa mancane kakhulu amathuba. Kunesizathu salokho. Okunye ukuhlola akukehluleki okwamanje. AbakwaLakers banakho, ngonyaka odlule kanye nonyaka owandulela lokho.
