On March 9, Beijing time, A-Smith, a well-known commentator in the NBA, when participating in a show, talked about lakers player Wei Shao's recent online violence and death threats against himself and his family because of his sluggish performance, and his words also caused great controversy.
A-Smith said: "Although there are some fans who are unforgivable because your family obviously should not be affected, and you and your family should not be threatened with death, the mocking part is the focus of the discussion we need. My brother, you deserve to be spat at and ridiculed because your performance on the field this year has been a bit too bad. ”
Because of the Lakers' recent poor record and sluggish performance on the field, Wei Shao has suffered a lot of doubts and insults in recent times, and even said that before the game against the Spurs on the road, Wei Shao's wife Nina repeatedly tweeted that she and her family had been verbally molested and threatened with death on social media. In addition to this, she said: "I hope that those good and talented players will not be insulted and insulted by this type of game because they like it, basketball is a sport, it is my life, it is also my child's life, and humiliating anyone for any reason is not the solution to the problem." ”
Westbrook has played in 63 games for the Lakers this season, averaging 18.1 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.2 assists, 1 steal and 4 turnovers per game, shooting 43.3%, shooting 28.2% from three-point range, and shooting 66.5% from the free throw line. In view of all the above circumstances, Wei Shao said that he would not let his family and children come to the Lakers home to watch the game, because he did not want his children to hear his father being insulted and insulted, which would cause great psychological distress to the child.
To be honest, the Lakers' poor record is not all the fault of Wei Shao, but Wei Shao has a contract of 44 million, and his offensive efficiency has declined seriously, and he must definitely bear the blame for the team's loss, which may also be the reason why the picky Lakers fans complain about him, after all, even James can not escape the fate of being booed, but then again, the insults and insults of Wei Shao's family, I think it is very undeserved, because the court matter is best to solve in the stadium, there is no need to affect the family.
