Kevin O'Connor on Westbrook: He Had to Make Sacrifices Learn from James & Howard & Anthony

Recently, NBA star Kevin O'Connor talked about the Lakers' plight this season and Westbrook's role in the team in a podcast show.

For Westbrook, O'Connor believed he had to make role changes and tactical sacrifices for the team, citing Bosh and Love as examples of helping James win championships for the Heat and Cavaliers by sacrificing his role and tactical position on the team. O'Connor said that now this Lakers team also has players who are changing their roles to better help the team.

"Westbrook has to change the way he plays, he's been handpicked out of the Big 75, he's a great player, MVP, future Hall of Fame and maybe even a championship. But if he wants to go further with this Lakers team, he must make a change. "James went to play center for this Lakers team, and he did." Also making sacrifices is Howard, who used to be a low-post offensive weapon, attacking the inside line day after day, wreaking havoc on the basket, and now he's doing the blue-collar work of making up positions, changing defenses, blocking, carding, scrambling for rebounds, doing whatever work can help the team, so as to survive in the NBA and help the team. There is also Anthony, who used to be the team's top card, the first choice in offense, and the middle shot, and now he is integrated into the team's defensive work, defensively hard, and has become a fixed-point three-point shooter who receives the ball and shoots. ”

"Westbrook just has to look around in the dressing room and see how James, Howard and Anthony are doing, learning from them (how to make a change) and that's it, I don't think there's anything unfair about letting a Big 75 make a change." O'Connor said.

O'Connor believes that the Lakers are now lacking a stable outside defender, and Westbrook needs to change the shortcomings of his lax defense and improve the quality of his defense, and he believes that Westbrook has the ability to do this, but at the same time, Westbrook needs to reduce poor shooting choices.
