On December 26, Beijing time, the NBA Christmas war between the Lakers and the Nets also came to an end, and the Lakers who finally fought at home lost to the Nets 115:122, and the team has now lost the NBA regular season for the fifth consecutive time. In this high-profile battle of focus, James was 39 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, and maintained a 56% shooting percentage. In contrast, although Wei Shao also got a triple-double of 13 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists, his shooting rate was only 20%.
The 37-minute start of the game, Westbrook, who shot 4 of 20 from the field and 0-of-3 from three-point range, was extremely inefficient. At the same time, Wei Shao also had 3 turnovers and 5 fouls, and in the final moments of the game, it was precisely because of Wei Shao's defense leak that it eventually led to the Nets player Mills' empty three-point shot, which also completely cut off the Lakers' opportunity to reverse the reversal. Therefore, even if Wei Shao got a single triple-double data performance, his state performance in the whole game was obviously very unqualified.
In this regard, NBA star Shannon Sharpe also mocked after the game: "Westbrook shot 4 of 20, but he will still be happy." Because he got the damn triple-double stats. As we all know, for the three-double data of the NBA stadium, Wei Shao has always seemed to have a special obsession, as the NBA League's historical triple-double king star, counting the triple-double data of this game, Wei Shao has now accumulated 190 triple-doubles. However, while harvesting triple-doubles, Westbrook's teams are often difficult to play well, and even if they finally make it to the NBA playoffs, the team's ending is basically a short round trip.
It is worth mentioning that after the Lakers lost this Christmas war, Wei Shao also did not participate in the post-game media interview. At present, Wei Shao's poor performance has seriously affected the Lakers' regular season record, facing teammates like Wei Shao, even if James has recently averaged 30+9+5 comprehensive data per game, it is still impossible to stop the team from suffering 5 consecutive losses in the regular season. Maybe at this time, the Lakers really should part ways with Wei Shao. Of course, considering Wei Shao's remaining contract salary and age status, the Lakers want to get rid of Wei Shao is probably quite difficult, and then it depends on whether the Lakers management can atone for their sins and finally successfully get this heavyweight deal in the trading market!
