Take the initiative to break out of the contract and get silence in the entire league! Where will Westbrook go at the end of his career
NBA free market has been open for more than a month, but Westbrook's name seems to have disappeared in the market. Last season, Westbrook's game in the Nuggets was impressive enough, especially in the playoffs against the Clippers. Westbrook made a lot of contributions. When Westbrook confidently jumped out of the contract, no one expected Westbrook to be ignored. Now the Pistons have become Westbrook's only remaining next home. Unfortunately, they just asked about the situation symbolically and did not move.
The former Thunder Third Young Master is still pursuing his dreams in the league. The eldest brother Durant is still proving that he can win the championship without joining a group. After successfully joining the Rockets, he added a little confidence to himself. The third brother Harden seems to be tireless and can make surprises every season. After the Clippers' perfect reinforcement this season, the third brother also has the capital to win the championship, as if only he missed everything. Why Westbrook chose to join the Nuggets back then was just trying to win the championship, but his dream was shattered. When Westbrook woke up, he seemed to be isolated by the league.
Over the years, Westbrook's biggest regret may be that he did not win the championship. He gave up his identity as the leader of the Thunder and started to shuttle between the teams. There are many stars who have partnered with, and he even reduced his value to start playing from the bench. However, every concession did not make Westbrook respected. Instead, it made each team want to keep asking for it. Last season, Westbrook's data were 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds and 6.1 assists. No matter which team he was in, Westbrook could become a suitable third leader, but the NBA is realistic. Between data and value, the management chose the latter.
Westbrook has good data, why is no team willing to take over? The reason is very simple. Westbrook's three-point shooting percentage has become his fatal weakness. Basketball in this era is pursuing shooting space, but after Westbrook comes on the court, his opponent can open his outside line to defend other teammates. As he gets older, Westbrook's lateral movement speed has dropped significantly, which is too easy for his opponent to pass. If these are acceptable, then Westbrook's 24.3% ball possession is the fundamental reason why no one wants him.
Paul is already 40 years old. Why are there still teams willing to compete for Paul? It is because their value lies there. If Westbrook wants to pursue his dreams, a team with the ability to win the championship cannot let Westbrook play indulge in playing. If a weaker team chooses Westbrook, it will not bring much help to young players. This has caused Westbrook's market value to plummet. To put it bluntly, the young Westbrook may be able to make up for his own shortcomings with his passion, but as he grows older, these shortcomings are infinitely magnified, and no team wants to take risks.
Of course, the reason why we like Westbrook is precisely because of his love for basketball. Just like last season, even though he was still fighting for a broken palm, he still insisted on the game. This spirit has indeed infected countless fans, but please look at James. The 40-year-old man has been disliked by the Lakers, let alone Westbrook? Although I am unwilling to admit it, I can only say that time is the athlete's biggest enemy.
For Westbrook, he really doesn't lack anything now. The only reason that allows him to continue to stay in the league may be his love for basketball. When this love becomes a heavy burden, the author thinks it is better to retire early, and perhaps this is the best choice. What do you think? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
