On December 29, Beijing time, the NBA regular season Lakers defeated the Rockets 132-123 on the road, ending the recent wave of 5 consecutive losses. In the whole game, the Lakers had 4 people scoring 20+, James slashed a large triple-double of 32+11+11, Munch returned to the starting and got 25 points, Anthony hit 4 three-pointers on the bench to get 24 points, and Westbrook's state recovery also got a triple-double of 24 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists.
Why Westbrook is back in form is because his performance in the annual game is too bad (4 of 20 shots, multiple empty baskets, plus-minus -23 on the court, is the culprit of the team's loss to the Nets). But you have to say that how well Wei Shao performed in this game is not necessarily, so he made 7 more mistakes, the most embarrassing of which was that at the end of the first half, he dribbled the ball on his feet out of the sideline without anyone defending, and Wei Shao once again had a dunk at the key moment of the game, but in the last moment he joined forces with James to help the team to protect the victory.
With 5 and a half points left in the game, the Lakers only led the Rockets by 2 points at 113-111, Wei Shao held the ball to break through the inside line to face the dunk dunk, which scared the Lakers fans into a cold sweat, fortunately at the critical moment Wei Shao stabilized, when there were 2 and a half minutes left in the game, Wei Shao first assisted Anthony to shoot 3 points, and then assisted James 3 times in a row to get 6 points, after being fouled, he stood on the free throw line and hit 2 free throws (only these 2 free throws were hit in the whole game), helping the team to win the game steadily.
Of course, it is also worth noting that Westbrook gave James the key rebound in the air in the final moments, helping the latter reach a triple-double, thus making the two third pairs in Lakers history to get a triple-double in the same game.
This game just happens to show the real Westbrook, which is also the Westbrook that the Lakers need to accept, because I think he is already changing, and it is impossible to change more, because this is his personality, and it is also his habit of entering the league for more than a decade. He makes inexplicable mistakes and makes shots that are not sure, but when he's cool-headed, he also delivers deadly assists or surprise attacks that deliver fatal blows to his opponents.
The Lakers are accepting Westbrook, Westbrook is also adapting to the Lakers, and James is also changing at the same time, which is a fact that everyone has to accept, because this is the real Westbrook.
