The Los Angeles Lakers have struggled this season, with their 27-31 record in the Ninth Place in the West before the All-Star, with a winning percentage of less than five. In the eyes of most fans, the main responsibility for the Lakers' poor performance lies with Westbrook, after all, he was the team's most important reinforcement last summer, with a salary of 44 million, but he could not play well.
However, there are also many people who give Wei Shaoming a grievance on social media. For example, former Pelicans coach Big Van Gundy posted such a paragraph on social media today: Westbrook just played a level that the Lakers should be able to foresee. His shooting percentage is exactly the average of his career, and his effective shooting percentage is slightly above average, but his three-point shooting rate has declined. His number of turnovers is his lowest in eight years, averaging 18.3/7.8/7.5 per game.
What Da Fan said has a certain truth, this is the normal level of Wei Shao, the Lakers should expect, he is only playing normally now. Westbrook has always played like this, he can't transform into no ball, shooting is not threatening enough, not suitable for pairing with James.
