Jokic’s sixth triple-double of the season, 32+14+14.

Four assists were given to newcomer Kayo - all of which were walks and layups.

Kayo scored 11 shots, 12 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals in 27 minutes today:

In his last full season with the Suns: 17 shots, 23 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists per 100 possessions.

This season, he made 13 shots, 14 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per 100 possessions - mainly because he couldn't make long shots.

But when he formed a hand-to-hand partnership with Jokic, he was able to break through from the weak side and feed Braun when Braun and Jokic couldn't run.

When Murray and Gordon were away, he was responsible for organizational work: such as passing open spaces to Hardaway Jr.

Screen and assist, cut the ball, draw offensive fouls, steal, and made no mistakes.

Except for failing to make long shots, he does a little bit of everything.

In the five-man group of "Jokic + Watson + Hardaway + Brown + Kayo", he is doing the work of Murray, Braun and Gordon at the same time.

After playing today, Jokic has given Braun 23 assists this season, Gordon has 21 assists, Murray has 18 assists, and Kayo has 15 assists. Hardaway had 11 assists and Watson had 10 assists - for comparison, for example, the Jazz's George Jr. gave Markkanen 23 assists, and no other teammate reached double figures.

Compared with others who are used to catching one to feed, Jokic mainly plays a game where everyone can catch the rain and dew without losing. It can be said that he is very Aquaman.

The Lakers' loss to the Hawks: a bit disappointing.

Redick was very angry after the game, saying that there was no highlight in the game, and that he knew it was going to be bad in the first two minutes.

What exactly is so bad?

At the beginning, Luka fed Ayton the ball, and Ayton had a buttery hand - very much Kwame Brown.

Then the Hawks attacked the basket four times, two of which were very interesting:

Gueye broke through, and Dyson cut inside; Smart and Luka were both pointing, "Who is filling in here?" Then Smart rotated on the weak side, and Dyson strolled for a layup.

Wallace passed the ball, Smart hit Gueye's three-pointer, and Gueye directly broke through and shot.

The Hawks did not indulge in long-range shots throughout the game, but used the Lakers to attack the outside and make a lot of cuts: they scored 62 points inside.

The Lakers made mistakes and the Hawks scored 36 points; they lost 22 points on the fast break; they were beaten 62 points in the paint: "There are three starters on the opposite side that I don't know, so just win by just playing" - and then lost.

Today Luka still had 22 points and assists in the first half, but had 0 points and 5 assists in the second half.

A small question:

The Eagles showed their stance at the beginning, leaving the bottom corner empty, flanking Luka, and locking up the inside: Luka chose to make a strong shot.

In fact, in the first half, Hachimura raised his hand on the weak side more than once, but Luka still chose to make a strong shot.

The most obvious goal in the second half: When Luka tried to break through, almost all five Eagles moved toward the strong side, taking away Luka's attack and forcing him to make a strong shot - weak side corner? Completely empty.

This is a gamble. The price is that the Lakers still hit 40% of the field goal percentage and scored 12 three-pointers, but Luka only made one shot within the free throw line.

With Reeves and LeBron away, the Hawks decided, "Except for Luka, you are all shooters. No one can attack on the weak side. We will shrink and take away Luka's breakthrough. He will move the ball and we will attack again!"

In this way, the Lakers are in a mess. Part of the Lakers' lineup is a shortage. A few weak-side ball-handlers were targeted by the Hawks. Part of them is a wrong mentality and unprepared, and they were penetrated by the Hawks' repeated incisions.

Ayton admitted after the game: The Lakers underestimated the Hawks and did not watch the video before the game. "We were not prepared at all, and JJ also criticized us."

Due to lack of preparation, veteran players like Smart will overdo it, and Laravia almost played the worst defense of the Lakers' career:

After all, Smart and Laravia are not Amen Thompson. They have no wild intuition and come first. They have to rely on anticipation and hard defense.

But today, the Lakers were unprepared and had a confused attitude. It was like a candidate who worked hard to memorize handouts every day to prepare. He felt that he could do without reviewing, so he took the blind test directly: when he looked at the questions, he found that they were all new questions.

So I failed the exam.

The Spurs beat the Pelicans, Fox is back, a perfect day.

Fox didn’t need to warm up, scoring 24 points on 9-of-14 shooting, and 15 points on all 6 shots in the second quarter.

Wenban was involved in the pick-and-roll and cut inside, and he retreated for a three-pointer; Wenban was left open in the corner, and he broke through in one go.

When Wen Ban came off the field, he calmly rushed, stopped, rushed, and strolled, as if he was teaching Castle:

"You don't have to be faster than everyone else - it is better to stop at the brink than to let the horse go!"

Then in the fourth quarter, when the Pelicans were catching up, the Spurs needed someone to take over. Fox made a breakthrough and then took another step-and-throw shot to lock the game.

Make full use of the involvement of the literary class, complement each other with the literary class, take over when the literary class is away, and end the game when the game is in crisis.

Perfect.

Castle sent out the second-highest 13 assists in his career yesterday, and today he had a career-high 14 assists - with only 2 turnovers.

Of course, he still had many blazing breakthrough goals, but two assists were extremely subtle:

- The weak side received a pass from Fox, and immediately fed Barnes a long shot, grabbed the offensive rebound, and then fed Vassell, and succeeded.

——Received the pass from Fox on the weak side, immediately broke through, and fed Wenban for an alley-oop.

These two goals are not "everyone is optimistic, I will create opportunities out of thin air", but take over the threat from Fox.

This is the most subtle thing about the Spurs today: I originally expected Fox (and Harper) to be the Spurs' future ball handlers, and Castle would do a lot of weak-side damage; but today Fox's scoring with the ball was smooth, and Castle's instigation during this period was integrated into Fox's scoring.

I thought that when Fox returned, Castle would return to the Flames Raiders; however, he seems to be addicted to passing the ball? Can he still be a passer? !

Of course, I made 0 of 6 three-pointers and ended the game with 6 fouls. The old problems are still there, but - 27 assists back to back? !

Finally, Bunyama, after failing to reach double figures in rebounds for three consecutive games, calmly collected 18 defensive rebounds and 3 blocks today.

He can stop caring so much about scoring.

Looney tried to shoot a three-pointer at the beginning, but was blocked by Wen Ban; then Quinn tried to hit Wen Ban alone, but was blocked by Wen Ban again; at the end of the game, Phils tried to challenge Wen Ban, but was blocked again.

Wenbanyama scored 18 points on 19 shots today and made no free throws - for the first time this season, Wenbanyama did not score 22 points and had no free throws, and the Spurs could still win.

Fox scored 24 points on 14 shots. The second quarter broke out and the fourth quarter ended.

Castle was responsible for passing the ball: 14 assists and 3 offensive rebounds, passing the threats of Fox and Wenban to the shooters, with only 2 turnovers: he no longer had to attack people.

Wenban was responsible for 18 defensive rebounds and 3 blocks, dominating the penalty area: he no longer had to rush for 20 shots and 10 free throws.

In the Spurs' second back-to-back game, Vassell and Barnes shot from long range, Sohan did everything except shooting three-pointers. Champagne came off the bench and scored 14 points with 7 shots. Kelden still hit the rebounds. Everyone did what they should do, and eight people scored in double figures.

A perfect day.
