洛杉磯湖人隊將在季後賽中擊敗猶他爵士隊的5個理由
April 6, 2021
猶他爵士隊保持38-12的戰績，是聯盟中最好的，他們場均得分排名第三，防守排名第四
，蓋帽排名第四（多虧Rudy Gobert），此外，爵士隊擁有3個全明星，Donovan Mitchell
，Rudy Gobert，和 Mike Conley，但與往常一樣，湖人在球場兩端都處於另一層。
如果兩支球隊在季後賽中交鋒，湖人隊將獲得優勢，因為他們有一些關鍵因素對他們有利
，而猶他爵士沒有。這是洛杉磯湖人在季後賽擊敗猶他爵士的5個原因。
5.冠軍信心
湖人隊在常規賽中不太會顯現出來的，那就是冠軍經驗，這支湖人隊在去年的季後賽中輕
輕鬆鬆，擁有了NBA最好的全能陣容。丹尼斯施羅德（Dennis Schroder）和蒙特雷茲哈雷
爾（Montrezl Harrell）之類的人正處於鼎盛時期。
當然，勒布朗和戴維斯是球隊的領軍人物，並且在球隊中保持連續性，洛杉磯在他們最大
的階段都發揮了最高的水平，這意味著他們將知道如何在明亮的燈光下比賽，甚至新來的
蒙特雷茲哈雷爾也有這方面的經驗。猶他爵士隊擁有NBA最好的戰績，但是他們還沒有進
入最大的舞台，而湖人隊已經證明了自己是NBA冠軍。
4.湖人有更多的才華
猶他州本賽季得到了許多不同球員的貢獻，多諾萬米切爾（Donovan Mitchell）平均每場
25.6 分帶領球隊，而他的全明星隊友魯迪戈伯特（Rudy Gobert）（14.6分和13.2籃板）
和邁克康利（Mike Conley（16.3 PPG））都有職業生涯。喬丹克拉克森（Jordan Clarks
on）和博揚博格達諾維奇（Bojan Bogdanovic）分別貢獻17.3分和14.8分，以幫助猶他獲
得第三高的進攻表現。
但是即使面對猶他所有的得分威脅，湖人隊也有更多的才華：勒布朗詹姆斯和安東尼戴維
斯是前五名球員，儘管本賽季迄今為止缺席了36場比賽，但場均貢獻25.4分和22.5分，
施羅德則貢獻了15.3分和5.1助攻，而Harrell分別獲得15.1分和6.8籃板，這4位球員比猶
他州的頂級球員更有才華，而湖人隊的Kyle Kuzma平均每場12.7分和Kentavious Caldwel
l-Pope的三分球命中率達到39.7％。
3.安東尼戴維斯將會準備好
安東尼戴維斯（Anthony Davis）本賽季已經缺席了湖人27場比賽，而且對他的長期健康
狀況也有很多疑問，戴維斯有傷病的歷史影響到他的整個身體，所以外人不必擔心，這是
正常的。戴維斯可能會更早地返回湖人隊，但預計球隊將坐下來確保他的傷病得到100％
的恢復。
健康的安東尼戴維斯為湖人隊提供了比猶他更大的優勢，爵士隊在2月24日以114-89的勝
利擊敗了湖人隊（沒有安東尼戴維斯），这表明缺少戴維斯這樣的巨星比赛是不同的。戈
貝爾是他的第三屆年度最佳防守球員的有力競爭者，但即使是他也無法阻止戴維斯，因为
戴維斯的速度更快，而且從裡到外非常全面的球星。
2.勒布朗詹姆斯可以適應世界上的任何進攻和防守
勒布朗詹姆斯仍然是世界上最好的球員，本賽季已經缺席了9場湖人比賽，但他也將在季
後賽中保持健康，如果詹姆斯徹底恢復健康，他在季後賽展現出来的能力是無與倫比的
勒布朗在36歲時場均25.4 分，7.9 籃板和7.9 助攻，這意味著他對比賽的影響比任何人
都要好。在進攻端，勒布朗控制的步伐比任何人都要好，可以說是湖人有史以來最偉大的
球員，這意味著他將做出調整以擊敗聯盟中的任何一支球隊，包括NBA的最佳球隊。
1.季後賽壓力
季後賽的壓力是真實的，猶他爵士成為上賽季的犧牲品。在首輪對上丹佛金塊的比賽中，
他們以3-1領先，但卻沒能在最後頂住壓力導致被翻盤。多虧邁克康利（16.3分，三分球
命中率為41.4％）和喬丹克拉克森（17.3分）爵士今年比賽有所改善，有跡象表明，由於
壓力，他們將對湖人隊步履蹣跚。
多諾萬米切爾（Donovan Mitchell）是一位出色的球員，擁有大量的上升空間，但他不足
以取代勒布朗詹姆斯（LeBron James）和安東尼戴維斯(Anthony Davis）；米切爾不是
MVP球員，因為他不在全世界前十名頂級球員中，猶他州將面臨巨大壓力，湖人隊可以憑
藉自己的特權和超級巨星的力量應對任何壓力，這意味著爵士樂極有可能在光線最明亮的
情況下棄牌。

5 Reasons Why The Los Angeles Lakers Will Beat The Utah Jazz In The NBA Playof
fs
By Eddie Bitar -April 6, 2021 -
The Utah Jazz hold a 38-12 record, the best in the league. They rank 3rd in sc
oring, 4th in defense, and 4th in blocks per game (thanks to Rudy Gobert). Bes
ides, the Jazz have 3 All-Stars in Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, and Mike Con
ley. But as good as they have been, the Lakers are on another level on both en
ds of the floor.
The Lakers will have the advantage if both teams clash in the postseason becau
se they have key factors in their favor that Utah do not have. In terms of phy
sical and mental intangibles, the Purple and Gold will overcome a worse regula
r-season record to beat the Jazz. Here are the 5 reasons the Los Angeles Laker
s will defeat the Utah Jazz in the playoffs.
5. Championship Confidence
The Lakers have something that cannot be earned during the regular season, and
that is championship experience. This Lakers team breezed through the NBA pla
yoffs last year and had the NBA’s best all-around team. This season, the Lake
rs might have gotten better with the likes of Dennis Schroder and Montrezl Har
rell joining the team in their primes.
Of course, LeBron and Davis are the franchise leaders and have continuity in t
heir group. Los Angeles have played at the highest level in the biggest stage
of them all, meaning they will know how to play under the bright lights. Even
newcomer Montrezl Harrell has been a part of a playoff team with expectations
last year with the Clippers. The Utah Jazz have the best record in the NBA, bu
t they have not been on the biggest stage of them all, while the Lakers alread
y proved they are NBA champions.
4. The Lakers Have More Talent
Utah are getting contributions from many different players this season. Donova
n Mitchell is averaging 25.6 PPG to lead the team, while his All-Star teammate
s Rudy Gobert (14.6 PPG and 13.2 RPG) and Mike Conley (16.3 PPG) are having ca
reer years. Even Jordan Clarkson and Bojan Bogdanovic are putting up 17.3 PPG
and 14.8 PPG to help Utah get the 3rd ranked offense.
But even with all Utah’s scoring threats, the Lakers have more talent. LeBron
James and Anthony Davis are top-5 players and are averaging 25.4 PPG and 22.5
PPG despite missing a combined 36 games so far this season. Schroder is putti
ng up 15.3 PPG and 5.1 APG while Harrell is chipping in 15.1 PPG and 6.8 RPG.
These 4 players are more talented than Utah’s top players, and the Lakers hav
e more depth with Kyle Kuzma averaging 12.7 PPG and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope d
raining 39.7% of his threes.
3. Anthony Davis Will Be Ready
Anthony Davis has missed 27 games for the Lakers this season, and there are ma
ny doubts about his long-term health. Davis has a history of injuries affectin
g his entire body, so it is normal for outsiders to worry. But make no mistake
, Davis will be ready for the postseason. Davis could return to the Lakers soo
ner, but it is expected the franchise will sit him to ensure his injury is 100
% healed.
A healthy Anthony Davis gives the Lakers a massive advantage over Utah. The Ja
zz defeated the Lakers on February 24 in a 114-89 victory (without Anthony Dav
is), and that shows the difference the best big man in the game can make. Rudy
Gobert is a contender for his 3rd Defensive Player of the Year Award, but eve
n he cannot stop Davis who is quicker and an unstoppable scorer.
2. LeBron James Can Adjust To Any Offense And Defense In The World
LeBron James is still the best player in the world. The King has missed 9 game
s for the Lakers this season but he will also be at full health for the playof
fs. LeBron was in the MVP race earlier in the year but he will not play at his
best for the remainder of the regular season. A rested King means no player h
as a chance to be better than the Lakers superstar in the playoffs.
LeBron is averaging 25.4 PPG, 7.9 RPG, and 7.9 APG at 36 years old, which mean
s he impacts the game better than anyone. LeBron will be able to lead his team
on offense, even with Gobert inside. He will adjust to Utah’s strong interio
r defense and make sure he pushes the pace to prevent them from setting up. On
offense, LeBron controls the pace better than anyone. Having arguably the gre
atest player of all time on the Lakers means he will make adjustments to defea
t any team in the league including the best team in the NBA.
1. Playoffs Pressure
Postseason pressure is real, and the Utah Jazz fell victim to that last season
. Up 3-1 against the Denver Nuggets in the first round, they could not close t
he deal against a contender. While Utah is a better team this year thanks to t
he improved play of Mike Conley (16.3 PPG on 41.4% shooting from three) and Jo
rdan Clarkson (17.3 PPG), there is evidence they will falter to the Lakers tha
nks to pressure.
Donovan Mitchell is a tremendous player with a ton of upside, but he is not qu
ite good enough to usurp LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Mitchell is not an MV
P player because he is not among the top-10 players in the world, and that mea
ns the pressure will be on Utah. The Lakers can handle any pressure because of
their franchise prestige and also their superstar power, meaning the Jazz are
very likely to fold with the lights shining brightest.
