After six games were postponed, the Wizards finally made up enough to meet the required number of players and was allowed to play against the Spurs by the league. However, the first game after a long absence did not usher in a good start. The Wizards lost 101-121 to the Spurs. After this game, their record was 3 wins and 9 losses, ranking second in the East and second in the league. This game is also the first game of Wizards star Westbrook's comeback after being absent for half a month due to injury. This is because he will sweep away the haze of previous poor performance with a new look, but from the results, Westbrook is still the familiar one. Less, he has now become the fastest regressive player of the season.
played for 25 minutes and scored 9 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists with 3 of 11 shots. In addition, he also sent 4 turnovers, got 3 blocks, plus or minus -20 for the team. lowest. Westbrook played a very representative "Westmore-style" game. Looking at the league, he is the only player who holds a salary of 40 million but only plays such a data. Even the Wall who swaps with him is not bad. To such an extent. The 32-year-old Westbrook still has a three-year maximum contract this season, but his style of play has no room for change. I really don’t know how the Wizards will spend these three seasons. Someone will take over Westbrook’s contract. ?
So far this season, Westbrook has played 35.6 minutes per game, can get 18 points, 9.5 rebounds and 10.6 assists. He averages 5.1 turnovers per game and ranks first in the league, shooting 37% from the field and shooting from three-point range. 30.6%, the free throw percentage was 64.1%, and the true percentage was 44.1%. These eye-catching data together can prove that Westbrook’s decline is a cliff-edge. He is completely lost on the offensive end without shooting ability. The increase in age + the decline in physical athletic ability makes him lose the most proud offense. The ability to frame, what's even more terrifying is that he doesn't even have room to adjust his style of play.
Last season the Rockets chose to abandon Capela in order to maximize Westbrook’s breakthrough ability. Westbrook did not disappoint. He scored 27.2 points, 7.9 rebounds and 7 assists per game, but in the playoffs, Westbrook faced High-intensity defense completely exposed their shortcomings, and the Rockets were easily eliminated by the Lakers. After the season, Westbrook chose to propose a deal to leave the Rockets.At the same time, Rockets coach D'Antoni left the team to join the Nets to become an assistant. Harden also applied for a deal and eventually joined the Nets. Capella, who was sent away, has now proved himself in the Hawks and has been very good in the West for many years. The competitive Rockets were disbanded because of Westbrook alone.
Last season's Wizards record was 25 wins and 47 losses and ranked ninth in the Western Conference, but this season the Wizards are showing signs of swooping the No. 1 pick. Bill may not be able to bear to leave the team in a row. It can be said that the Wizards have won Taking Wei Shao is equivalent to carrying a big burden on his back. The Wizards exchanged Wall for Westbrook and also sent a first-round pick, but from the current point of view, although Wall has been resting for two years due to injury, his state and statistics cannot match his worth, but his offensive role is definitely better than Wei. Little big. Everything happened too fast. The Wizards did not expect the former MVP and former scoring king Wei Shao to fall to this level. But last season, the Rockets sent Capella away in exchange for Wei Shao to average 27 points per game. The Wizards were still trading. Not calm enough, Westbrook, the MVP, is indeed hard to say.
