On January 13, Beijing time, an NBA regular season game that ended today, the Lakers lost to the Kings 116-125 on the road! In this game, the Lakers had led by up to double digits, but the attack in the third quarter suddenly lost power, with a net loss of 17 points in the single quarter, and the final quarter was fruitless, and finally swallowed two consecutive defeats!
In this game, James once again played as a starting center, hit 13 goals in 29 shots, and once again got a comprehensive data of 34 points + 7 rebounds + 6 assists + 1 block, while Wei Shao's performance could not bear to look directly, and Wei Shao played 37 minutes in the whole game, got 8 points + 12 rebounds + 6 assists, but shot 2 of 14 from the field and 0 of 5 from three-point range.
At the end of the third quarter of the game, Wei Shao gave the Kings 5 points directly after two consecutive disappointments, and the Lakers were expected to erase the point difference in the last minute of the game, and Wei Shao's three-point shot hit iron, completely ruining the Lakers' hope of winning. And every time Westbrook concedes a goal today, this P-chart picture of "your hand feels as cold as ice cubes" will appear on the big screen at the Kings home. The king meant to need to thank Wei Shao! (You never know if The current Westbrook is friend or foe in the day's game)
Wei Shao was not satisfied with this, saying that such a picture was very interesting and cute. According to the data released by the media StatMuse, in the last three games, Wei Shaoheji has only 8 of 40 shots, and the shooting rate is only 20%! Against the Hawks, he scored nine points on 4-of-14 shooting; against the Grizzlies, he scored six points on 2-of-12 shooting; and against the Kings, he scored eight points on 2-of-14 shooting. In addition, since entering 2022, Westbrook has not hit a three-pointer, and such a sluggish performance has reached the top of the hot search list.
Looking at Wei Shao now, funny and sad, how spirited he used to be, now what he saw in his eyes was full of unconfidence and confusion. After the game, Wei Shao said: "I don't like the word recession to describe myself, I am locked in by the opponent's defense. I understand what I can do, I'm trying to choose a better way to play, and I'll find the ultimate solution. ”
James said: "Wei Shao is to continue to train hard. Obviously, he went into training and got some good shooting opportunities, just not to score. We're all NBA players, and it's a natural reaction for anyone to get frustrated when going through a period of lows. ”
James has scored 30+ in 11 of his last 12 games and has scored 30+ 19 times this season, ranking first in the league. However, in these 19 games, the Lakers only have 10 wins and 9 losses, and they really can't move the team! The Lakers still want to compete for the championship this season, and the only way to do it is to make a trade.
