On December 23, Beijing time, Wei Shao fell into trading rumors, and the Lakers' recent poor condition, etc., all of which made the relationship between Wei Shao and the Lakers "delicate". Now NBA legend Oscar Robertson talked about The problem of Westbrook, he said that he did not lose confidence in Westbrook, and praised Westbrook as a good player, he will solve the problem.
Westbrook's problems with the Lakers, reflected in his inconsistencies with his teammates' chemistry in the game, as well as his large number of mistakes, have become one of the important factors in the Lakers' struggle. However, NBA legend Oscar Robertson, who hasn't lost faith in triple-doubles.
Speaking with Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports, Robertson acknowledged that Westbrook didn't do well in some aspects of the Lakers, and he didn't elaborate on what those aspects were, but he did underscore his belief that Westbrook would solve the problem.
"I think there are some things that Westbrook does that are great, some things he doesn't do very well, but he'll figure it out. He's a good athlete. Smart athletes can always find the best way to reach their goals," Robertson said of Westbrook.
Westbrook averaged 19.5 points per game this season, his lowest since his second year in the league. He also had 7.8 rebounds and 8.2 assists and shot 45.5 percent from the field.
Westbrook's stats are not bad, to say the least, but that doesn't really give the team a win, as they only maintain a 50% win rate in the 7th place in the West with a 16-16 record.
Still, as Oscar Robertson says, Westbrook is still figuring out how to figure things out, and when he finally takes his role in the Lakers, he should be able to fully exert his dominance, and Lakers fans will hope that day comes sooner rather than later.
