The Lakers narrowly defeated the Raptors in overtime, ending a 3-game losing streak. The controversial Wei Shao finally ushered in a moment of raising his eyebrows. This season's extremely sinking and lost "Iron Will" has re-proved himself in this game, proving what a superstar is and what a hero at a critical moment.
In the past few games, the Lakers have almost collapsed in the first quarter, so that fans have mocked that don't buy tickets to the Lakers, they are a liar. But in this battle, the Lakers did not repeat the same mistakes, And Wei Shao and Gabriel went crazy from the beginning of the game, and blasted a perfect start of 15-5. In the first quarter, the Lakers also rarely led, taking a slight advantage of 33-30.
The two sides scored hard, the score alternately rose, until the key moment in the final quarter, the two teams were still very glued. James's outside feel is quite good, but the Lakers can't defend the opponent, even if James scores consecutively, the Raptors still lead 116-113 with Trent's three-pointer.
At 17.7 seconds, James missed a three-pointer at the top of the arc, but Westbrook grabbed an offensive rebound, he retreated to the three-point line, and shot against the defense, but the basketball went off track and hit the left side of the rebound. Oops, it's another comedian performance moment!
However, the game did not end, and then when the Raptors sent a sideline ball, the Lakers pack clamped tightly, and Wei Shao snatched the cut directly from the opponent's arms, and then a dragon rushed to the three-point line and hit a three-pointer with a difficult, defensive jump shot. This magical operation helped the Lakers successfully advance into overtime and also won the vitality of the overturn.
In overtime, Westbrook continued his exciting performance, he became more and more excited, constantly scrambling for rebounds, assisting Bradley to hit a three-point shot 32.5 seconds before the final game, and the Lakers have been in control since then. In the last minute, Wei Shao grabbed the next defensive rebound, and he personally reached a triple-double, ending the game perfectly.
In the whole game, Westbrook shot 8 of 18 and 4 of 7 three-pointers to blast down a triple-double stat of 22 points, 10 boards and 10 assists. The Lakers narrowly defeated the Raptors 128-123 to end the losing streak. In this battle, Wei Shao once again played the role of a hero at a critical moment, and after a long time of sinking, he finally fought a battle with his eyebrows raised. Statistically, this is the ninth time in Westbrook's career that he has hit a three-pointer in the final five seconds of the fourth quarter and overtime, and he is tied for second with Kobe Bryant in the past 25 seasons, behind Vince Carter's 12 times.
Maybe Wei Shao sometimes makes people feel outrageous, maybe Wei Shao is difficult to return to the peak, but such a night is destined to belong to a legendary moment.
