Averaged 40 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists per game, becoming the first person in NBA history! If he plays like this, there is not much suspense for MVP this season.

Two weeks into the new season, the Western Conference is in chaos. After the Thunder won eight consecutive games, they fell at the feet of the dark horse Trail Blazers. Although Mr. Su Qun said that losing to the Trail Blazers did not matter, if the Trail Blazers enter the playoffs, they will definitely become a thorn in the flesh of many wealthy teams. This season, the Trail Blazers have the ability to become stronger when they are strong, and they feel like knocking out a master with random punches. From the Rockets' two-game losing streak at the beginning to their five-game winning streak, the team is getting better and Durant has fewer and fewer dramas. In the last two games, Durant was able to beat the Mavericks with 6 of 18 shots, and beat the Grizzlies with 5 of 18 shots. Several young core players in the Rockets have gradually adapted to the situation where Durant is behind him and he sings in the front office. Including the Nuggets, they quietly maintained a 70% winning rate, and Jokic didn't need to exert too much effort. The team's strength is there.

But the most surprising team is definitely the Lakers. The Lakers unexpectedly defeated the Warriors in the opening game. From the perspective of the Los Angeles media, the Lakers lacked competitiveness when James was unable to play for a long time. But two weeks later, the Lakers' overall record of 7 wins and 2 losses is second only to the Thunder, ranking second in the Western Conference. This is based on the absence of James. 2 wins and 0 losses without Reeves, 3 wins and 1 loss without Doncic. To put it simply, in the absence of James, anyone can step up. Even in the previous defeat of the Trail Blazers, the Big Three did not play. Ayton's 29 points and 10 rebounds + Hachimura's 28 points led the team to defeat the super dark horse! Why are the Lakers so strong? This season, they also double-killed the Timberwolves, who swept them in the playoffs last season!

originated from Doncic. Let’s start with a few statistics. In the games Doncic played, the Lakers had 4 wins and 1 loss. In addition to losing to the Warriors at the beginning, they successively defeated the Timberwolves + Grizzlies + Heat + Spurs. After these five games, Doncic scored 40+ points in three games, with an exaggerated record of 49 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists against the Timberwolves. Averaged 40 points, 11 rebounds, 9.2 assists and 2 steals per game, shooting 50% from the field! In the first five games of the season, he scored a total of 200 points, 55 rebounds and 46 assists, the first person in NBA history! Especially against the Spurs, Doncic not only had 35 points, 9 rebounds and 13 assists, but also had 5 steals and 2 blocks. With less than 40 points, the media thought Doncic was not feeling good, but his 5 steals tied his career high in a single game, and he also committed an offensive foul!

To put it simply, after losing weight, Doncic integrates offense and defense! Naturally, the question has an answer. The Lakers have a new look this season, which cannot be separated from several new players recruited by Doncic himself. Ayton averaged 17.5 points and 8.4 rebounds per game, contributing 20+10 in two consecutive games. When Doncic continued to deliver cannonballs to him, the self-confidence brought by Ayton's data, coupled with his original talent attributes of the top pick, the two-year 16 million contract is so worth it! Secondly, in the last 4 games Smart has played, he has averaged 12.3 points, 4.5 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 2.3 steals per game. The Lakers and even the league are the strongest defensive gate. When he is on the court, the Lakers' defensive efficiency is as low as 100.4, which is already the best level in the league! Including Laravia, he scored 27 points against the Timberwolves and 25 points against the Heat. He has both three-point and ball-holding attributes.

Everyone feels comfortable around Doncic. The high-level statistics don't lie. When Doncic and Smart were on the court at the same time, the Lakers beat their opponents by 19.2 points per 100 possessions! With the lineup of Doncic + Reeves + Smart + Hachimura, Smart will make up for the defensive pressure of Doncic and Reeves. The Lakers can beat their opponents by 13.8 points per 100 rounds! The key reason why the Lakers reached third place in the Western Conference last season and were swept by the Timberwolves in the first round of the playoffs was that Doncic lacked defensive help, and neither James nor Reeves could share the burden. But in essence, Doncic is one of the top five or even top three superstars in the league. In the second season of his career, he has already averaged 29 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists per game. His upper limit is too high, and Doncic is only 26 years old!

He was abandoned by the Mavericks last season due to his injuries and overweight body. But don't forget, Doncic has led the team to the Western Conference Finals twice and the Finals once in the past few years! In the past few seasons, the competition for MVP has changed from Jokic + Embiid to Jokic and Alexander. Especially last season, Alexander was crowned a personal honor Grand Slam, but this season may be different. Doncic's offense and defense have improved significantly after losing weight. The Lakers' adoption of the most conservative strategy has also helped Doncic raise the team's playoff ceiling. His average of 40+11+9 per game is far behind other competitors in the league. The biggest change Doncic has brought to the Lakers is to bring the Lakers back to championship heights in a system he is familiar with, including Reeves' rapid growth this season.

Compared with several other super giants, Jokic doesn't care much about data, and his scoring has been on a downward trend this season; Alexander has been criticized, especially his free throws; although Antetokounmpo has guaranteed data, it is difficult for the Bucks to perform well. In comparison, Doncic maintains this trend this season and has a high probability of winning the MVP! Next, after James returns, James will continue to shine in the transition period and improve defense without disrupting the Lakers' current winning style. Doncic also proved with actions that after losing weight, he has the strength to become the face of the Lakers in the next 5-10 years. The Lakers still have hope of winning the championship this season.
