Los Angeles Lakers vs Portland Trail Blazers Full Game Highlights | 2021-22 NBA Season

Elite level of basketball in the world. Anthony Simons, Avery Bradley, Malik Monk, Trevor Ariza, LeBron low block left. Double by LeBron to get it out of his hands to Simons. Hey, there it goes! For three posts. Goes up and under Davidson's. Winslow on him. Winslow's 6'6". It's sturdy. Surveys. LeBron tried to push a pass inside. That's knocked down by the Blazers. McLemore. Swings it cross-court. Ellaby wide open at the rim as Winslow to lay it in. That's good basketball. Chess pass to Ellaby. Passes up a look at three to get a little better advantage. Nice decision because he finds it. Feeding for a call. Lakers bring it the other way. LeBron. Spots a seam. Drives right into it. Goes down now here in the first. Simons. Straight line drive himself. Nice pass as he tucks it around a body to Nirk for the two. This is Greg Brown. He's going to find a way into the gym on the Blackhawks. James will high-step the other way. Blazers a lead of two. Ellaby again on LeBron. Drop-step spin into the lane. He's- That's a- That's what the great ones do. You know, they know all the little tricks. Nirk. Nice angle pass in there to CJ. What a quick pocket pass. That's already in this game. It hasn't always resulted in the Blazers scoring, but it does facilitate offensive flow. Tucker looking to bring it inbounds. A 21-year-old who just signed a contract this summer. Throws it right to McElmore for another Laker turnover. Here's Simons up the floor. Leaves it on the trail. Winslow angles in and lays it home. And then a run out. The inbounds nearly a collision between Horton Tucker and Johnson. Who's got to get off the shot. Ball dislodged from Stanley Johnson. The Blazers bring it ahead. Five turnovers on the Lakers. Simons. Tiffany hop into the lane. Backhand scoop. Back goes right to work. Into the lane. Trying to avoid Davis. Spins it up. Ellaby grabs the carob. Regroups. Re-gathers. And scores. P.H.D. More hungry and driven. You like those Blazers. Monk sets up. McElmore's there to get it. Checked by Reeves. Three to shoot. Got to make it happen, Ben. He'll pull up and pop. And got it. LeBron. Quick pass inside to Stanley Johnson. Feeds out of the post. One can. Ellaby four assists, five rebounds tonight. LeBron. Outside. He finds the open shooter. Tucker will trigger. Nope. Rebound grabbed by Reeves. Reloads. Greg Brown is there to deny. Grabbed by Smith. Two on one. Blevins loads up on the one. Two to the cup. And it rolls in. The bingo roll. From Kale. I thought for a second he was thinking about doing some damage at the rim. And he can bounce. Ellington. A 38 percenter from three this year. Get an offensive foul. Smart play. On the break. LeBron hook pass over to Reeves. It comes from the opposite. Simons. Smith Jr. Trenton watching the screen. Smith into the lane. Locks it up. Greg Brown. Two hands one. Nice pass. Oh, got him. Smith reaches out. Prides it away from LeBron. Sails the other way. Leads it for Simons. Block. Big watch by Brown. He'll come hard into the lane. Stumbles to the rack. Lead and in. From three. Bradley. In the corner. To Ariza for a triple. And Ariza gathers him. Go to places where the seventh best percentage team in the league. And they come into this game 13th best. And a lot of their primary shooters, as you see. To hit on Elevee. Nurkic defends Bradley. Zips a pass right to back Lamar. Centers it to Elevee. Looks at Winslow. He's got him on his flank. He'll lay it up and in. And he twists it up and in. From Cleveland High School. Horton Tucker behind the back. Inside out dribble. A bit out of control. But he's able to get it. Backing down. Nurk turns at the paint. Lays it in. And since picking up a couple of quick fouls, he's managed it pretty well. I know Nurk is always willing to make that pass. That maybe is the spark that Frank Vogel's been looking for. They rotate it around to find Davis. That's it. Winslow sneaks it in. Up the floor he comes. Leaving it to Nurk. Powers in. Yeah. Nice move as he puts that out. Unfortunately, misses a couple here. At the line. It rotated to Bradley. And that's been the beat. Seventh point Laker lead. Back and forth. Occupied with that. And then just backed up and set a three. LeBron outside. Forced a triple. And of course it. Played in his 39th game. Possibly his 55 now. Here's Davis slipping inside on a beautiful bounce. He can make every pass. Any pass that needs to be made. He can go to it. His size helps him do that too. He has to go over the top as Anthony Lee. Missed the shot. Rebound to Brad. You think that's going through L.A.B.'s mind? This guy's number. He's behind Kareem and Carvel. Something to look at. On the baseline. Winslow waiting for him. He's got the pick. He'll advance it to Simons. Angles in. Kicks it to McLemore. And there's that. Nice find. Inside of Elite. Munk. Back there to get beneath. That, that last line of defense. Simons a little hesitation. Flutter to the baseline and knocks it down. Blocked the shot. Lakers bring it the other way. And of course. As you mentioned. As well. As you're making him. Get after it on both ends of this. Coming off the bench. So did Wayne Ellington. There in that second quarter. Here's LeBron. Mid-block. Drop steps on McLemore. And laid it in. He used to just make the shot. Didn't say nothing. Would go back. He's doing press conferences now. And critiquing his press conferences. Yeah. Maybe more stats. Here's Brown. Into the lane. To the glass. Pump it up. Lefty. No. Terrific follow. Wins. Here's one. Over to Bradley. Wharton Tucker. Had to change the angle. And a three pass to Davis. Nine to fifteen. Blazers. Three-pointers. Falling after a one for twelve. Three-point first half. Here's the lob. Ahead to Davis. Smith to trigger. When he comes to it. Internal flutter. Going off at two. Wriggles into the lane. And laid it home for Simons. Seventeen for the game. Tripped up. Goes to one knee. Allaby finds Watford. Heads off the ground. He's erased it. At half. He scored thirteen points to the Blazers. Off the ten-leaguer turnovers. Here's Smith into the lane. That is Gordon. The action is Ellington. That is off. Watford quickly dispatches to Smith. And off into the corner. Keljian Blevins. Smith belt high. Dribble. In deep again. Double team. Now to Brown. He'll collect it. He hesitates. Shoots a three and scores! Dribble. They give it to Bradley. He hesitates. Back to LeBron. Intercepted by Smith. Brown will advance. Dennis Smith. A wraparound into the night. And now with eight-twenty-three to go. Fourth quarter. Davis. Outside. Bradley shoots and scores a three. Blazers leading the Lakers by four. Stanley Johnson. Pull-up jumper. That cast is good. Nurkic at the dead ball back. He's been consistent. The message tonight has been rip it and run. Here's LeBron. Great work ethic and development. Yeah. With the current makeup of the team, it's not a situation where it's like you go play down in the G-league. Johnson puts the Lakers to within one. Six and a half left. Fourth quarter. Good game. Smith fakes. Drives. Nice handoff. Alabi! Surveys. Defending. Well, now they're trying to get the switch. Blank forced a reverse and a brilliant. Well, it forced you guys to have to do something different than rely on your justice to play one-on-one defense. Simons into the air. He has the ability. Davis to Monk. Gets away. Smith will bring it ahead. Outside is Simons. Trailing for three. Got it! Jeff would dearly love to have what the Blazers have had and what they hope to reel in the future. Almost to Alabi. Fakes right. Moves left along the inline. Sneaks a pass to Nurk. His hook is rejected by Davis. Grabbed by LeBron. Lead picking up. Stolen by Dennis McJunior. He'll march back the other way. To Simons. Comes. Loads. And delivers! Definitely. Into the paint. The one-two. Leaning back. No. He's knocked down. The whistle. 32 seconds left. LeBron cherry-picking. Pulling it up and in. Nurkic scream. Bradley jumps out. He terminates the dribble. Over to Winslow. His shot blocked by. No. It comes off long. Into the hands of Nurkic. And for the Simons of Kapala. Reeves will swing it and play. Looking for a man. It's LeBron trying to get to it. Macklemore defends. LeBron will put him on the deck. Will shoot. Score the three. But the Lakers have run out of time. The Blazers snap their sixth game losing streak with a big win.
