Next stop King? Westbrook s future is doubtful, what does the king want him to do?

Basketball

Report from the new leaked reporter Ary: Sources revealed that after weeks of continuous dialogue, former MVP Westbrook is expected to join the Kings, and his agent keeps in touch with the Kings management throughout the process.

It should be noted that this Ary is a new reporter for rioters. His information is sometimes not completely accurate. He has made mistakes many times before, so the credibility is questionable.

However, Westbrook's joining the King was not a fantasy.

Or we should say that since the free market opened, the King has the most rumors with Westbrook. Previously, TA reporter Sam Amick reported that the King is interested in Westbrook, and general manager Scott Perry likes Westbrook very much.

Recently, the host of Sacramento radio also said: "Although this signing has not been completed, it has been brewing for some time. Both sides (King and Westbrook) have shown strong interest. I think Westbrook may become a member of the king."

Currently, on the well-known "mathematics" website abroad, the king is also ranked first in the next odds of Westbrook, followed by the Knicks (the team record said that they would not sign), the Bucks (there is already Cole Anthony), and the Heat (who are interested in anyone).

First of all, Westbrook is really difficult this summer. The free market has been open for almost a month and there is still no signing. This is the first time in his career, especially considering his performance in the Nuggets last season, it is actually not bad.

In 75 regular season games played for the Nuggets, Westbrook averaged 27.9 minutes per game, scoring 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.4 steals, with a shooting percentage of 44.9%/32.3%/66.1% in three events, and a real shooting percentage of 53.2%. The true shooting percentage of

53.2% may not be high in the league, but it is already good for Westbrook, at least the highest in the past five years, and the three-point shooting percentage is still the highest since the MVP season. In the playoffs, Westbrook did not play well against the Thunder in the second round, but he definitely made contributions to the Clippers in the first round. In seven games, he played in six games, averaged 13.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, and his three-point shooting percentage reached 41.9%.

The last three games, Westbrook's performance:

—G5, 21 points, 6 shots, 15 shots, 6 assists, 5 shots, 5 shots, 10 shots, 5 assists, 4 of 9 shots, 4 of 9 shots, and Westbrook is definitely still good now, and there are many. The main reasons why he has not signed so far are two main problems:

1 Westbrook is passionate and experienced, but his shortcomings are not less than his advantages. Just missing three-pointers, poor finishing ability, and more mistakes are enough for many teams to have a headache. Any team that values his advantages must accept his shortcomings

2. Westbrook is the sixth player in the Nuggets, because there is no one available to the Nuggets. If Westbrook is asked to go to other teams, especially those who want to achieve results, Westbrook may not be able to play the sixth player. With Westbrook's personality, will he accept this change?

Let's talk about the king. Objectively speaking, I don't quite understand why the king wants Westbrook.

The Kings don't have many operations during the offseason, probably: letting Laravia go, using Valan for Sharic to make room, signing Eubanks for a year's minimum salary, and signing Schroeder in three years of 44.4 million.

So far, the Kings' core lineups next season include: Raven, DeRozan, Sabonis Jr., Schroeder, Ellis, Monk, Devin Carter, Keegan Murray, Eubanks, and McDermott. The biggest problem in this lineup is too obvious: there are too many people who can hold the ball. Laven, DeRozan, Sa Sakh, Schroder, and Monk all need to have the ball in hand to play their greatest advantage. Ellis is also in the backcourt. Does the Kings really need Westbrook? At least in terms of lineup adaptability, it is not necessary.

Compared to the backcourt, the one that the Kings now has a bigger problem is the front line, which is actually the Kings' problem last season. You can only think of Keegan Murray, with Sharic's performance in the Nuggets last season, it is difficult to bring practical significance to the Kings.

The Kings are now. I personally think that they will definitely not be able to achieve results in the West next season. Instead of spending this way, it is better to completely rebuild. If Saint and Monk do not renew their contracts, there may be a big show before the transaction deadline for next season - the Kings team, to be honest, is it difficult to understand. The management should not be unclear about their own strength, right? If so, it seems okay to sign Westbrook? Anyway, I can't get results.

For Westbrook, you definitely have ability, but the problem is that ability is not completely linked to the market, and Westbrook's enthusiasm is also there, so it is very likely that he will do marginal rotation.

I can only say that this summer is difficult for Westbrook. If the Kings do not sign, they may face a situation where they have no ball and are forced to retire? Hopefully the worst case doesn't happen.
