The 5 reasons that make Los Angeles Lakers fans dream

Good times are running for Los Angeles Lakers after five consecutive victories that have triggered an optimistic atmosphere within the Angelino franchise. The impressive performance of Lebron James is being supported by other factors, leading many to believe that the team has been underrated and can truly aspire to glory.

If there was one thing all NBA analysts agreed on before the season began, it was that Los Angeles Lakers hadn't been able to put together the necessary pieces to contend for the championship, being a weak team with no real aspirations. However, after 13 games played, that perception of reality may have changed due to the merits shown by JJ Redick from the bench and by Lebron James and his teammates on the court. These are the reasons for optimism:

1. Lebron James is on fire and remains unstoppable

It's difficult to explain the greatness of this player in just a few lines. Every night he surprises with memorable performances, achieves triple-doubles, leads the team, scores decisive baskets, and energizes all his teammates. A true NBA star who doesn't feel the weight of his 39 years.

2. Anthony Davis, an absolute dominant force when injury-free

Memorable are the performances that the Lakers' center is delivering, avoiding the inconsistency of previous seasons and significantly reducing his absences due to physical discomfort. He is much more motivated than before and shows aggression on both ends of the court, making him an imposing player.

3. Dalton Knecht, the most positive surprise

Who would have thought that a Draft pick would bring so much to the Lakers? The young shooter is having a sublime season, effectively opening the court, showing remarkable tactical intelligence, and assuming a crucial role off the bench. The best and most unexpected news possible.

4. Austin Reaves and his ability to disrupt

He still isn't the consistent third sword that many desire, but his talent is undeniable, and on inspired days, he is a very disruptive player. He can be relied upon in important games, taking advantage of the spaces created by the defensive attention that Lebron and AD attract.

5. Room for improvement when reinforcements return

The 9-4 record with five consecutive triumphs doesn't have to be isolated, especially considering that two players will soon rejoin the team dynamics. Christian Wood can provide refreshing minutes in the interior game and maintain scoring flow, although the most important return will be Jared Vanderbilt, whose defensive ability could raise the competitive level of the Angelino team.
