On December 29, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. In recent times, Lakers star Westbrook has been the focus of media and fans. Due to his very bad performance in the year-end battle (4 of 20, plus or minus -23), Westbrook was criticized and blamed by many fans.
However, in the midst of criticism, there is one person who stands up for Wei Shao, and he is former NBA star Anthony Walker. Walker said: "I think Wei Shao did a good job, the problem is that the Lakers suffered a 5-game losing streak, so Wei Shao's problem was amplified." He can play his own style, but he also needs to reflect on his decisions late in the game, as well as the poor three-point shooting, but anyway, he's not the reason the Lakers are 16-18. ”
Walker continued: "I like Vogel, but you have to clearly inform the future Hall of Famers about their role, this can be solved, the Lakers are only 2 wins away from 50% of the win rate, and when they are back to health, no one wants to be against them. When James stays healthy, they're a threat to anyone. ”
Anthony Walker played for the Heat, Lone Rangers, Timberwolves, etc., and was named to the All-Star Team three times, winning the NBA championship in 2006.
So far this season, Westbrook has averaged 36 minutes per game, 19.6 points, 7.9 rebounds, 8.1 assists and 1.2 steals, shooting 45.1% from the field, 30.4% from three-point range, and averaging 4.6 turnovers per game, ranking second in the league. According to the schedule, the Lakers will challenge the Rockets on the road today, and they will strive to win to avoid a six-game losing streak.
