As everyone knows, Westbrook's style of play is extremely strong, and it is commonplace to score points after a breakthrough, which causes his inside score to remain high. According to statistics, in the 2019-20 season, Westbrook averaged 15 points per game on the inside, ranking third in the league, second only to Antetokounmpo (17.5 points) and Zion (16.8 points), and it was also the highest score for all non-inside players of. Westbrook is the only non-inside player in the top 7 scoring list of
last season. From the 8th place, Ben Simmons (12.9 points), Doncic (12.8 points) and James (12.7 points) lined up.
Westbrook scored so many points inside, thanks to his very strong breakthrough. In the regular season last season, Westbrook averaged over 20.8 times per game, scoring 11.7 points, ranking first and fourth in the league. Last season, the Rockets were still coached by D'Antoni, followed the magic ball theory, focusing on the inside and three-pointers. The projection is not what Westbrook is good at, but his breakthrough is sharp enough.
After Capella was traded in early February this year, the Rockets embarked on the path of the ultimate small ball, which also opened the door to Westbrook's breakthrough. In the 13 games from Capela's departure to the lockout, Westbrook averaged 31 points, 7.8 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.8 steals per game, shooting 52.5% from the field and 35.5% from the three-point range. Overall The performance is better than last season's average. This characteristic of
Westbrook is bound to be carried forward in the Wizards next season. Bill is good with the ball and off the ball, and he is good at shooting. If he plays the role of the second scorer, he will reduce the defensive energy of the opponent. In addition, the Wizards also have an outstanding shooter like Bertans, and Westbrook can naturally hold the ball and fight Huanglong. And this is why people are generally more curious after the deal is concluded.
Maybe next season, we will see Wei Shao who reverts to a "triple-double machine" and breaks into the inside and scores points easily. (Supine Support/Furry)
