LeBron James, Anthony Davis ramp up off-court statements with on-court rout of Celtics

New York Times  

LOS ANGELES — After applying public pressure on the Los Angeles Lakers to upgrade the roster with their statements off the court, LeBron James and Anthony Davis backed up their demands with a statement win at a critical juncture of the season. With two weeks until the Feb. 6 trade deadline, James and Davis made it clear that they believe this roster still needs work — and they’re unafraid to push for it more directly than in years past. I feel like we are.” It’s no secret that Davis has preferred to play power forward more than center, or that James and Davis want the Lakers to take bigger swings with their assets and improve the roster significantly. The Lakers executed Redick’s one-through-five switching plan, cross-matched Davis on Jaylen Brown and Rui Hachimura on Kristaps Porziņģis, and even outshot the Celtics, making one more 3-pointer and shooting almost 9 percent better from beyond the 3-point arc. While the Lakers have certainly done a laundry list of notable favors for James and Davis recently — drafting and signing Bronny James, signing other Klutch Sports clients to the back end of the roster and largely allowing both to structure contracts however they’d like — they haven’t been as favorable when it’s come to bigger roster decisions since the Russell Westbrook debacle.
