James bumped into teammates who were harder than Irving? Wei Shao: I was injured because I sat on the bench for too long!

February 11, trading deadline. The Nets made the biggest deal of the season with the 76ers, with Harden swapping Simmons. Harden, along with Durant and Irving, are considered the sharpest offensive big three in history and can win at least one championship. One of the biggest reasons Harden will leave the team is that Irving is a part-time player. According to reporters, Harden decided to force the palace to come back from Irving to play. Harden and Owen looked like they were inseparable, they didn't deal with each other, and eventually had to break up. Irving even wanted Harden to leave when he wanted to leave, hoping that Harden would be traded by the Nets as soon as possible.

Irving looked like a very difficult teammate, which came up in the Cavaliers' last career. According to reports at the time, Irving didn't even speak to any of his teammates in the playoffs, and he was upset that the Cavaliers didn't give themselves the same level of treatment as James, and eventually left the Cavaliers because of jealousy and wanted to be boss. Although James is the first-in-class leader in history, he is unlikely to conquer any player. Owen was an exception, and it was estimated that no one could conquer him.

But James looks to have a tougher teammate than Irving, and he's Westbrook. When Irving worked with James, he was able to score on the court and was the second in charge of the Cavaliers to win the championship. However, when Westbrook and James worked together, not only did they have no effect on the court, or even dragged their feet, but also liked to win at the press conference and secretly compete with head coach Vogel, which was considered to indirectly cause infighting in the dressing room.

For example, according to a report on February 12, when Westbrook was asked about the injury, he actually gave the answer: I was injured because I sat on the bench for too long! Such an entertaining answer seems to fit the connotation of his "basketball comedian" meme. When asked about injuries, Westbrook said: "I sometimes have, sometimes I don't. I'm not used to sitting on the bench for too long and have to move a bit. Sit too long with a stiff back until you wake up the next day. I want to make sure I do the right thing, make sure I'm healthy, and maximize my role for my teammates on the field.

Although Westbrook's explanation is reasonable, saying that he was injured because he sat on the bench for too long always reminds people of his hinting at Vogel. Vogel abandoned Westbrook several times, and Westbrook disagreed after the game, such as saying that he had proved that he had the right to play at key moments, and so on. Westbrook's strength has declined, but it still requires super-giant treatment, which is a bit like Manchester United player Cristiano Ronaldo. So there's an argument that Westbrook could replace James as his toughest teammate.

In addition to Westbrook's criticism, Lakers general manager Pelinka was also punched in the face by lakers reporters because Pelinka said that she had a conversation with James and Davis and reached an agreement. But veteran Lakers denied it with team reporter David, who said he had learned from James and Davis stakeholders that Pelinka was talking nonsense and that he hadn't had any conversations with James and Davis. David said Pelinka also had infighting with James and Davis. A team that can be infighting, it is really difficult to win the championship.
