Why does LeBron James and the Lakers continue to be in crisis after their historic championship?

Star LeBron James’ Los Angeles Lakers team continues to lose its 4th match since winning the 2023 – 2024 In-Season Tournament championship.
The yellow and purple Los Angeles Lakers team is again in crisis with 4 defeats in the last 5 matches. The latest loss of LeBron James and his teammates was their away trip to the Chicago Bulls on the morning of December 21 with a score of 108-124. Previously, the Los Angeles Lakers also lost to teams like the Mavericks, San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks.

Although the Chicago Bulls do not have the strongest squad when one of their two big stars, Zach LaVine, is injured. However, star DeMar DeRozan played too well (scoring 27 points) to overshadow LeBron James (scoring 25 points). Not only DeRozan shined, the Chicago Bulls also had 7 other players scoring over 10 points and among these were 5 names in the starting lineup.

Speaking to reporters after the Los Angeles Lakers’ latest loss to the Chicago Bulls, star LeBron James said the whole team felt tired in the early part of the season and that caused the team to have a three-game slide. “It’s a combination of everything. I mean, it’s emotional fatigue. It’s physical fatigue. It’s the fatigue of a season and when you don’t win Obviously it was fatigue from disappointment,” the 38-year-old player shared.

The Los Angeles Lakers’ next match schedule this week is also very difficult when they have to be away on the field of the two teams currently ranked top in the Western region, Minnesota Timberwolves (December 22) and Oklahoma City Thunder (December 24). If he does not improve his physical strength and determination, it is likely that LeBron James and his teammates will continue to receive more losses in the NBA arena.
