"That’s where our story really begins. A chance to get a two-for-one, the Thunder elected not to call timeout. Westbrook took the inbounds pass, flew up the court, and tossed a reckless 25-footer at the rim. No good, Clippers rebounded, Paul made two more free throws and boom, game wrapped up just like that.
It was kind of a perfect snapshot of the fear, worry and anxiety so many of the anti-Brodie contingent have had over the years, but especially with Westbrook returning recently. Durant was sitting on 42, and fresh off popping that big time 3 a few minutes a go. In a big moment with the Thunder needing points, it was Westbrook who assumed the responsibility of hoisting the shot. Durant never touched it.
Now, do I have a problem with the shot? Sure. It was a terrible look. But not because Westbrook took it. Just because it wasn’t a good shot. And at the same time, Westbrook’s kind of earned the right to take those. Ask yourself: If Durant fires that, you probably don’t care. Obviously KD has more of a 3-point license, for good reason, than Westbrook, but you can’t tell one superstar yes and the other no. It’s never worked that way. Again, that doesn’t excuse the fact it was a poor idea, especially since he was just 3-12 before it, but he’s made enough of them to make it acceptable. No, Durant didn’t see the ball in a big spot, which felt weird only because of the last few weeks where he was entirely the focus. Here was Westbrook, truly announcing his return. It was part of the good/bad act we’ve all grown very used to, and something you are forced to live with."
威少在OKC的定位 (spoiled superstar),不會改變。 希望OKC能磨合好。 目前這樣的球看得很折磨。小羊今天隻有投兩次。還有二胖在對方內線猛攻時,在防守端作用不可忽略。
