On February 9, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. In today's focus battle, the Lakers welcomed the Bucks at home to challenge. The Lakers fell behind early and eventually lost to the Bucks 116:131, making it 26-29 and continuing to rank 9th in the West.
The reason why the Lakers lost today is directly related to the poor performance of many people in the team. Among them, Wei Shao played only 26 minutes today, only 3 of 11, including 1 of 0 from three-point range, 4 of 7 from the free throws, and a total of 10 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists, as many as 4 turnovers, and only -16 plus-minus in the whole game!
In the first quarter of the game, Wei Shao showed today's bad hand, and he deflected all 4 shots. In the second half of this section, Wei Shao was nailed by the letter brother. In this quarter, Westbrook had 0 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist.
In the second quarter of the game, Wei Shao suffered one of the most humiliating scenes of the day. In a wave of offense, Westbrook broke through and made a layup on his right hand, Bucks player Monroe held it directly behind him, and Westbrook fell to the ground while encountering a big hat.
In the third quarter, Westbrook had 4 points and 5 rebounds on 1-of-3 shooting, but he was replaced early after too little help for the Lakers. Since then, Wei Shao has never appeared again. Even though the Lakers trailed by just 12 points in the final quarter, Westbrook was still pressed to the bench.
When the camera was given to Wei Shao on the sidelines, he showed an embarrassed bitter smile on his face. Obviously, his performance and the overall results of the Lakers are difficult to satisfy. Coupled with Wei Shao's recent frequent appearance in trading rumors, these have caused Wei Shao a lot of headaches.
It is worth mentioning that after the game, Westbrook instead comforted James and Davis on the bench.
According to the schedule, the Lakers will challenge the Blazers on the road tomorrow, and they will strive to win to avoid a losing streak.
