The 2K ability value has dropped again, it has dropped to 79, and the 2K ability value at the beginning of the season is still 86, and the ability value of 79 is also the second lowest 2K ability value of his career, which is only higher than the 77 of the rookie season. Of course, 2K's ability value doesn't say much, but it can also reflect the state of the star at a certain stage! Obviously, Wei Shao's current state is only better than the rookie season. So far this season, Wei Shao still maintains the data of averaging 18.3 points, 7.8 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game, but the shooting rate is only 43.7%, the three-point shooting rate is only 29.9%, and the free throw shooting rate is 66.8%, and now Wei Shao is more like playing by the name.
Obviously, in the Lakers' game, Vogel prefers players like Munch or even Horton Tucker at key moments, but Vogel can't let such a player with an annual salary of 40 million sit on the cold bench. He can occasionally hang Wei Shao in the fourth quarter, but not after a long time. And Wei Shao's ability decline is also visible to the naked eye, not denying that he can also play an average of 20+ triple-doubles per game, but the Lakers have not allowed him to have so much ball power, and he only needs to do two things in the Lakers: one is to control the court outside of James, and the other is to play an efficient scorer.
But the truth is that Wei Shao has no way to become the top scorer, and the decline in speed and explosiveness is fatal, especially for Wei Shao's body-eating style of play. After the addition of physical talent, Wei Shao's remaining basket breakthrough in addition to the unstable bottom corner three-pointer is the occasional highlight moment. But how to say this thing seems inevitable. Because from the moment Wei Shao left the Thunder, he was no longer one of the strongest players in the league, only when it was the Thunder, Wei Shao was the strongest moment.
Since George joined the Thunder, in fact, Wei Shao has begun to decline, no longer the player who can influence the game by himself! His last season away from the Thunder averaged 22.8 points, nine rebounds and 10.6 assists per game in the playoffs, which seems to be a good statistic, but in fact the efficiency is already super low. Wei Shao's average of 22.8 points was achieved by averaging 22.2 shots per game, and the shooting percentage was only 36%. From the moment he left the Thunder, Wei Shao could hardly be regarded as a superstar in the league.
That season in the Rockets was Wei Shao's last highlight moment, averaging 27.2 points, 7.9 rebounds and 7 assists per game, shooting 47.2% from the field, and it seemed that Wei Shao was going to play out very dominant data again, but the playoffs averaged 17.5 shots per game in exchange for an average of 17.9 points per game, and the 24.2% three-point shooting rate broke the dream. At this time, it is actually very clear that Wei Shao is no longer the player who can end the game by personal ability. His real peak was fixed in the 16-17 season, averaging 31.6 points, 10.7 rebounds and 10.4 assists per game, and 10.4 free throws per game, which is wei Shao's absolute peak. And now Wei Shao seems to have been able to see the prelude to the twilight of his career, just like Anthony's twilight career, coming quietly.
