On January 3, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Los Angeles Lakers ushered in the challenge of the Timberwolves, after the Lakers suffered two consecutive defeats against the Timberwolves. At the beginning of the game, Westbrook's mistakes were unbearable, and during the counterattack, the layup could appear to be out of hand, but Bradley, who passed to the bottom corner, passed the ball to the audience and got rid of a comedian alive. How embarrassing was it that Westbrook scored 20 points on 7-of-16 shooting, including 0-of-5 from three-point range and a staggering nine turnovers? Fortunately, the other Players of the Lakers played well and collectively dragged Wei Shao out of the conference field.
James played 39 minutes in the whole game, 7 of 15 shots, including 3 of 9 three-pointers, 9 of 12 free throws, got 26 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals of the full data, although the number of consecutive scoring 30+ games was fixed in 6 games, but the control and excellent defense of the key moments of the old Zhan brought great help to the team. Veteran Anthony hit 3 three-pointers to score 14 points, Munch maintained a steady output throughout the game, scoring 22 points, and Bradley, who is good at defense, not only scored 14 points with 7 shots, grabbed 4 rebounds, and hit a difficult mid-range near the end of the 24 seconds at the last minute, helping the team seal the victory, these players really saved the Lakers from fire.
However, in the post-game press conference, Wei Shao's speech completely ignited the anger in the hearts of Lakers fans, talking about his mistakes, Westbrook said:
"My game, you know, my game isn't based on shooting or whether there's a mistake or not, I'm going to lose a shot, that's part of the game, I'm allowed to throw a shot, I can do that, like other players, I can lose a shot, I can make a mistake, I can do that, it's all part of the game, it means his job is to make the right judgment.
When hearing these words, Xiaobian was really shocked, did not expect to contribute so many mistakes, let the opponent take advantage of the mistakes to get so many points, let his fans laugh at the players for a season, but still did not recognize their mistakes, still so shamelessly think that they made the right judgment? Is it right to take off the basket? Is it right to pass the ball to the audience? Are all the strange mistakes correct? Is it right to have so many teammates wipe their butts for your mistakes? It's really hard to imagine Westbrook actually saying such a thing.
At the previous press conference, whenever Wei Shao played badly, he would admit his mistake and promise that he would play better, although there was not much improvement in the future, but at least he would talk about it. Now it's good, even the verbal work is not done, the jar is completely broken, and stubbornly believes that he has made the right choice. To put it badly, if Wei Shao does not play this game, the Lakers will not win so laboriously, without his nine mistakes, the score has already been pulled apart, why wait until the last second?
Now that Westbrook is no longer suitable for any team that wants to compete for the title, his presence will definitely hurt the overall environment of the team. At present, Wei Shao's final destination is to find a bad team that can concentrate on brushing data with him, there is no goal to win, he can still fill the data column, continue to play a good-looking triple-double, after all, his happiness is the most important, and don't come to the team with higher goals.
