Beijing time on December 26, the NBA Lakers lost to the Nets in the Christmas war, the Nets missed Kevin Durant and Carey Irving, in theory, this is a James Harden single-core challenge lakers double super giant game, but did not expect that the annual salary of less than $6 million Patty Mills played a super giant level, he shot 17 in a single game 11 shots 34 points, coupled with Harden's key performance in the last 45 seconds of the game, the Lakers fought to the end but lost the game, They also swallowed the longest 5-game losing streak of the season so far!
There are always many reasons for losing, such as uneven lineup, the manager is isolated, etc., from this game alone, Russell Westbrook's offensive aberration is also a very critical point, Westbrook shot only 4 goals in 20 shots, shooting 20%, three-point shooting rate of 0%, bad offense is reflected in the plus-minus value, Westbrook's plus-minus value is -23, this is the lowest positive and negative value of this battle, the last game to play the Spurs is quite good, did not expect to be so iron in the Christmas war, just right, This battle Wei Shao 20 shots 16 iron alignment data is out, may wish to see who made him so iron?
(Screenshot of the bitwise data)
After the Christmas war, the NBA officially updated the alignment data, this game Westbrook had shots against 8 Nets players on the offensive end, of which the offensive opponent Nicholas Clarkston was 6 shots and 5 irons, the opponent DeAndre Bembley was 4 shots and 3 irons, the opponent James Harden was 4 shots and 4 irons, the opposite Mills shot 3 irons, the opponent Brown 3 shots 2 iron, the position Griffin 2 shots 2 iron, the opponent Carter 1 shot 0 iron, the opponent Johnson 1 shot 1 iron, because 75% of Westbrook's shots in this campaign were under the basket. Therefore, it is normal to be defended by multiple people, and the data of the alignment will be slightly different from the personal data of Wei Shao.
From the perspective of alignment data, Harden is the player with the best defensive effect of this campaign, followed by Nicholas Clarkston, Harden defended Against Westbrook 4 of 0, Harden sent 3 blocks in the whole game, 2 of which were also given to Westbrook, due to Westbrook's offensive attributes, Clarkston will naturally frequently oppose Westbrook, Clarkston has 5 blocks in the whole game, of which 2 are given to Westbrook, Clarkston is 211cm taller, which is higher than any player the Lakers have played in this campaign, in the case of projection can not be opened, The Lakers really can't do anything with him, and Harden, as a former teammate of Wei Shao, sent a cap and a 4-in-0 defense, I have to say, this is too ruthless?
