202122 Los Angeles Lakers Player Review: Russell Westbrook
When the Los Angeles Lakers bought Russell Westbrook a year ago, Purple and Gold fans asked, "Why not?" A year later, more fans asked "Why?"
Westbrook's first home season didn't go as planned. The Lakers soon became the favorites to win the NBA championship with Westbrook, but they never made it to the playoffs, and it was more intense than anyone could have imagined.
He has his lowest score since making his NBA debut with a reduction in consecutive shots. Former head coach Frank Vogel was out of the 2013-14 season when he decided to leave Westbrook. There were also rumors of an exchange with John Wall during negotiations to save the season.
Since no correction was possible, listening to the elders of the home team damaged the confidence of the former best player. Westbrook makes easy shots and misses the ball in a regular game, as well as wondering if there is an eye or hand problem in the league.
The Lakers' season has been miserable, and part of the blame may be attributed to Westbrook's unwillingness to adapt. However, he was the most consistent player at the Westbrook Lakers, scoring 78 starts in the starting lineup, which did not find a role for Westbrook.
As the season progressed, Westbrook's game improved and the Lakers' expectations were maintained. He finished the season with 18.5 points, 7.4 rebounds and 7.1 assists.
Highlights 2021-2022Westbrook punched Rudy Gobert in mid-January in the center of the Utah Jazz. Westbrook are in the middle of a difficult offensive midfield - with just three numbers in their last four games. When the Lakers ended a three-game losing streak with a six-point victory, the immersion gave Westbrook some strength.
Outlook 2022-2023Westbrook is expected to sign a $ 47 million contract for next season. This put him on a long-term contract with the Lakers before hiring a free agent.
As new coach Darwin Hamm said in an interview with Al Qaeda, Westbrook's word for next season is "sacrifice." Westbrook should be more active in defense and ready to work without the ball. The main goal for this season should be to work on his 3-point shot.
Hamm believes Westbrook still has a long way to go. Westbrook should take advantage of this and discover their best roles along with LeBron James and Enthony Davis.
