On December 26, Beijing time, the NBA year-end battle focus of the Lakers at home to 115-122 regrets the Nets, suffered a wave of 5 consecutive losses. In this battle, the Nets are Harden alone to lead the team, and the Lakers are led by James + Wei Shao double core, it is reasonable to say that the Lakers' hope of winning should be greater, but they did not expect to lose to Wei Shao, a former superstar in the end.
In the whole game, James played 40 minutes, shooting 15 of 26, including 3 of 9 from three points, 8 of 9 from the free throws, cut the game-high 39 points plus 9 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals, the plus-minus value on the court was +9; and Wei Shao, as an "undercover" starter, played for 37 minutes, shot only 4 of 20, got a triple-double of 13 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists, and the plus-minus on the court -23 was the worst of the whole team, and even appeared in the game many times. In particular, the dunk in the final moment was actually covered by the basket.
Throughout the fourth quarter, James cut down 13 points and 6 assists, leading a group of role players to tie the score with a maximum of 23 points behind, but since the last 4 minutes or so, Wei Shao was replaced, the situation on the court has undergone subtle changes, and finally accompanied by James being dunked, Wei Shao dunked, and the Lakers completely buried the hope of winning.
To be honest, James's performance in this game is impeccable, according to statistics, when he was on the floor, the Lakers won 11 points, and in the 8 minutes he played, the Lakers lost 18 points, I want to ask "What is Westbrook doing?" After the game, Wei Shao refused an interview, and James was also helpless in an interview with the media: "He played very hard, he has tried his best, I have no opinion on this." (If you're a role player, you just have to work hard enough, but with a team-high annual salary of up to $40 million, shouldn't your responsibility be to lead the team to win?) ）
After the game, the voices on social media about spitting and criticizing Westbrook were one after another, and the famous Skip bluntly said that the Lakers lost because of Westbrook. Just a day ago, the famous Perkins also mentioned that "the Lakers should break up the Big Three, and the most important thing that should be sent away is Wei Shao"; but just after this game, mingji Stein exposed a heavy news: "Although I have not heard the specific news, I have indeed begun to hear that people have begun to inquire about the possibility of a thick eyebrow trade, because the Lakers are afraid that after the end of the Zhan Mei era, the team will once again fall into a dark moment of turmoil." ”
2 years ago, the Lakers got thick eyebrows through trade, and under his and James' leadership, the team won the 17th championship in team history; 2 years later, James is still desperate, even more tired than before, but you can no longer see the determination to see death in the eyes of thick eyebrows, and the trade is not worth mentioning. Maybe from this moment on, there will be more and more news about the Lakers' big three to disperse, after all, James has said that I have never been a very patient player, yes, he wants to win, he also wants to win the championship.
