On February 10, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season is in full swing. In a game yesterday, the Lakers lost to the Bucks 116:131 at home, and the record became 26-29, continuing to rank 9th in the West! Westbrook played poorly, averaging 10 points, 10 rebounds and five assists on just 3-of-11 shooting.
Earlier today, an alliance insider commented on Wei Shao's situation: "Is Wei Shao happy now? He could have averaged a steady 25 points per game at Oklahoma, but now? Houston fans hate him, washington fans hate him, not to mention those in Los Angeles. ”
So far this season, Westbrook has averaged 34.6 minutes per game, averaging 18.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 7.6 assists and 1.1 steals, shooting 43.5% from the field and 29.8% from three-point range! Such a performance is far from the expectations of fans, the Lakers have not done well this season, and Westbrook has an unshirkable responsibility.
It has to be said that the words of this alliance insider are not unreasonable. If he stays in the Thunder, Wei Shao still has the right to fire and control the team, and as a hero of the Thunder team, at the end of his career, he is likely to achieve a good story of one person and one city.
However, since leaving the Thunder, Wei Shao has been disliked many times. Whether on the Rockets or the Thunder, he didn't get the results he deserved with the team. At the Lakers this season, the Big Three have played a disastrous result.
What is even more embarrassing to Wei Shao is that in view of Wei Shao's big contract, it is difficult for the Lakers to send him away. The Lakers have been trying to trade him, but it's hard to unfold a truly effective operation. According to the latest report by BR reporter Eric Pincus, if James feels that rocket player Wall is more suitable for the team, the Lakers may consider reaching a deal with the Rockets.
