Wei Shao had a hard time drawing, and finally raised his eyebrows in front of the fans this season. Therefore, the overwhelming evaluation on the Internet is that Young Master Wei finally stood up. Yes, Westbrook's draw was indeed crucial, and it was the deadliest goal of the game. But just by relying on this goal, if you want to wash away the infamy of Westbrook this season, I think it is not very heavy.
Why are you not as optimistic about the future development of Wei Shao as everyone else? It is very simple that there is nothing in Wei Shao that is worthy of fans' expectations, and in this current team, the 33-year-old Wei Shao cannot continue to achieve good results. Ruin must be the main tone of his future, and the current situation is most likely a flash in the pan. If you don't believe it, you can look at this year's Westbrook game, how much can save the team, and how much is dragging down the current teammates.
In fact, if Wei Shao is still in the Thunder, he should be able to lead the team to play in the playoffs now. Why? Because Wei Shao must be centered on himself, only such a lineup can fully exert Wei Shao's ability. All the remaining options essentially cannot play all levels of Westbrook. I don't know if you have seen Wei Shao's game in the Thunder period, many times it is a big opening, no matter who the opponent standing in front is, Wei Shao can directly crush the past, which is something that many other players can't do.
Westbrook can take care of the organization and offense, so you just need to match him with some suitable role players. A guy like Adams who can grab the board is very good, of course, if you can match a George who can help wipe his ass and solve the problem behind him, this is also good. Westbrook is a player who can keep the lower limit, so even if Durant leaves the Thunder, Westbrook can still take the team to the playoffs. But he's not a player who can decide the team cap, or his style of play has already determined this, so Westbrook's team, at most, is to enter the playoffs for one or two rounds, without the luxury of getting into the division finals, which is impossible.
Some people say that Westbrook is only more crotch-pulling in the regular season, and maybe he can play a better performance in the playoffs in the future. I have to say that there is still a certain basis for this statement. In previous games, Wei Shao had a playoff super god situation. More precisely, at the end of the season. For example, in the Rockets, Westbrook ushered in an outbreak at the end of the day to help the Rockets get a playoff spot, when Westbrook averaged 32 points per game, while also having 8.6 rebounds and 6.9 assists. What is this concept? If this kind of achievement lasts for a season, it is mVP again. Therefore, there are also fans who expect that Wei Shao is just in a state of ups and downs, and may continue to erupt one day in the future.
Of course, I prefer to believe that this is just the previous Westbrook. As he grew older, It was unlikely that He would have made his previous achievements. In other words, the current Wei Shao is in a semi-crippled state. Due to age and physical strength, the flying stream playing style began to slowly decay until it could not help the game in any way. This is also one of the main reasons why everyone is so excited when they see Wei Shao's death, no way, this moment has not been seen for a long time.
There is another main reason why Wei Shao can't play the state that everyone imagines. Wei Shao in the Lakers is not so big room for development, as we said earlier, Wei Shao needs a lineup with him as the first core. The core of the current Lakers is still James and thick eyebrows. Despite the constant injuries to thick eyebrows, this tactical system was still reserved for him. Wei Shao can only be a three-headed family here. Wei Shao rarely had the opportunity to be in charge of the three, and after Durant left the Thunder, Wei Shao rarely gave others a little brother. So he's not up for that lineup.
To tell the truth, the current big three are sacrificing each other's advantages, and at the same time, they have not played a good result. James had given up most of the ball in the first half of the regular season, reducing his scoring chances to Westbrook to organize. But here, no one emptied wei shao, and wei shao fought very stubbornly. Thick eyebrows thought about pulling away, wei Shao couldn't go in again. The thick eyebrows went in, and Wei Shao couldn't directly give the ball to the thick eyebrows. Sometimes there is even an embarrassing situation where two people are snatching space inside. For this kind of scene, the management did not know what to do.
Not only that, after no physical blessing, Wei Shao's playing style fatigue began to affect the Lakers' lineup in reverse. Wei Shao's range is not enough, so the shooter's containment space can not provide enough help to the defender, everyone knows that Wei Shao's projection is not good, so many people will selectively give up Wei Shao when defending. It's a bit humiliating to say, but it's true in real-life games.
If there's anything west of Westbrook that's the same as the previous season, it's his scoring ability in the penalty area. This is more critical, Wei Shao was recovering after the All-Star Game before, but after this year's All-Star Weekend, Wei Shao's state did not pick up, but continued to slump. His three-point range was underrated, averaging just a pitiful 11 percent per game, a number that even a center player couldn't touch, and Westbrook did. The score in the penalty area is the only statistic that Westbrook can save face, shooting more than 62% of the shots, and it is also the best among the players in the same position. Westbrook's main offensive area is also in the penalty area, so there is reason to believe that Westbrook's future scoring may pick up slightly.
But in areas outside the penalty area, many of Wei Shao's indicators are unqualified, such as averaging 3.9 turnovers per game, an overall shooting rate of 43.6%, a three-point shooting rate of 29.1%, shooting stability and so on. In fact, everyone scolds Wei Shao, and some of the psychology is to hate iron not steel. You say that a player with a salary of more than 40 million yuan, the performance on the field is not even as good as some middle class, the influence on the team is completely negative, then what does the team want you to do? The Lakers' salary space is not abundant, and it is even less to be less than One Point by Wei. Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the final stage of James and Thick Brow to see if I could win another championship, but now it's good, all mixed up by him.
As the old saying goes, competitive sports, cooking is the original sin. There is no reason to explain the unqualified performance on the court, especially since Wei Shao once had high hopes. It can only be said that the kill is a little compensation given to the fans by Wei Shao. If you want to save your image, it is best to continue to play back to the previous level.
