Westbrook: Let’s ask the heroes in their late age, what is the way they come from and what is the way they return?
5:04am, 2 August 2025Basketball
This year's offseason, Ye Luo's moving chapter is like the theme of the league's defenders - Lillard will return to the Portland Trail Blazers two years later, while Paul returns to the Los Angeles Clippers after eight years...
However, all this cannot apply to Westbrook, who once had a triple-double king (also the league's active triple-double king) has not yet signed with any team.
Once the former old club (and defending champion) Thunder did not seem to sign it back...
Westbrook is now unemployed. Whether he can continue his 18th season of his career next season is obviously an unknown, isn't it?
Let's ask the heroes how old they are, what is the way they come from?
Last season, Westbrook averaged 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game, and his playing time was nearly 28 minutes. When it comes to his veteran who is only over 3 million, Westbrook can be said to be of good quality and low price.
But Westbrook's current situation is extremely embarrassing - most championship teams in the league have no intention of him, and the bad teams are not very interested in him due to longer-term plans for losing...
But after careful study, Westbrook is now worried about the situation and cannot blame others. The fundamental reason for his wandering in recent years is his extreme dependence on ball control and his erratic shooting performance.
In other words, Westbrook needs to have the ball in his hands to maximize his value on the court, but his shots are not worthy of his heavy defense against him.
Even most of the time, I deliberately let go of it, and then encourage Westbrook to bravely shoot three-pointers...
When Westbrook became the place on the court that dragged the team's offensive space, it is not surprising that there is no team interest now, right?
In the past six seasons, Wiz has been with the Rockets, Wizards, Lakers, and Clippers respectively, and in the last season, he has played for the Denver Nuggets.
It is worth mentioning that the Rockets, Lakers, Clippers and Nuggets are all teams with the ability to compete for the championship, but Westbrook still failed to find a long-term adaptable role, which is a pity.
This all shows a bloody and cruel fact-
Westbrook is not suitable for a strong team, especially a popular team to win the championship!
Perhaps, Westbrook is truly suitable for teams that are not very ambitious, are not strong enough to make the playoffs, and are not young enough to seriously play and rebuild!
And the Kings are such a well-behaved team. Perhaps Westbrook will appear in the team camp next season!
In the first half of last season, when Fox was still in the Kings' camp, the Kings' offensive rhythm ranked 11th in the league, which was just right.
After Fox was traded to the Spurs in the second half, the Kings' offensive rhythm fell directly to 28th place. The team urgently needed someone who could push the fast pace and create easy scoring opportunities.
Obviously, the team's top player LaVine is not the best choice.
Isn't Westbrook good at pushing fast pace and assisting teammates to create easy scoring opportunities?
Westbrook agent Jeff Schwartz has been working hard to advance this collaboration and is now close to signing.
