The 37-year-old veteran James, as the player who has played the most time in this game, can be said to have done his best on the offensive end. James, who almost led the team to erase the 30-point difference, can be described as a defeat.
In this campaign, Lakers backcourt giant Russell Westbrook played badly. Wei Shao, who carries a five-year, 206 million contract, has a salary of 44.21 million this season, which is the Lakers' first highest salary. However, Westbrook did not play at the level of a top-paid player in this game. Wei Shao played 26 minutes, shooting 3 of 11, 0 of 1 from three-point range, 4 of 7 from the free throw line, 10 points, 10 boards, 5 assists and 1 block, and the most 4 turnovers in the game. Westbrook shot just 27 percent from the field and 57 percent from the free throws.
Westbrook jumper
Westbrook played wildly in this game, and his scoring shortcomings in the middle and long range were exposed. In addition, due to the decline in physical fitness, the success rate of Westbrook's impact on the basket has also dropped significantly.
In addition to wasting a lot of ball possession and offensive opportunities on the offensive end, Westbrook also made the most mistakes in the game. Wei Shao, who is inefficient on the offensive end, also gave his opponents a lot of opportunities to easily score points because of mistakes. Westbrook's inefficient offense and unprovoked mistakes made the Lakers once trail the Bucks by 30 points, which was the main reason for the Final Loss of the Purple and Gold Army. Wei Shao's performance can be described as a pit for the whole team, no wonder head coach Frank Vogel pressed Wei Shao on the bench in the last quarter.

Juhoredi shot 7-of-12 from the field and 1-of-3 from three-point range, making a quasi-triple-double of 15 points, 7 boards, 10 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. Jujuholdi, with 58% shooting percentage, is a rarity as a defender.
Moreover, Juhorday is also the assist king of this battle. At the same time, Juhorardi has excellent performances in rebounding protection and defensive ends. In the final moments of the final quarter, when the Lakers chased the point difference to 12 points, Juju Holliday and Alphabet Brother scored 12 points in the last 4 minutes of the Bucks.
