The flaws do not hide the merits! Except for the key layups, Westbrook s performance in other aspects is remarkable?

Basketball

In a previous NBA playoff game, the Los Angeles Clippers, who played at home, defeated the Denver Nuggets 111-105, chasing the total score of the series to 3-3. Next, both sides will enter a cruel tiebreaker. The winner will meet the Oklahoma City Thunder, which is ranked first in the Western Conference in the regular season, in the Western Conference semi-finals, and the loser will be eliminated.

In this game, although the Nuggets' substitute backcourt player Russell Westbrook missed a key layup, his overall performance was actually quite good. Westbrook played 34 minutes and 43 seconds in the game, made 5 of 10 shots, 2 of 4 from outside the three-point line, and 2 of 3 free throws, and scored 14 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists. There were 2 turnovers and 3 fouls, with a plus-negative value of 0. Westbrook also showed comprehensive scoring ability on the offensive end. His breakthrough ability is still good. His performance outside the three-point line is also worthy of recognition. He also showed some passing and organizational abilities, and his performance on the defensive end is also considered to be average. Westbrook actually played the role of the offense and defense, and since the team was indeed unavailable, he also got a lot of playing time. In fact, if Westbrook hadn't performed like this, the Nuggets might not have had the chance to play until the last moment of the game. Unfortunately, at the critical moment, he missed such an excellent opportunity, which is indeed a bit regrettable.

In the NBA regular season this season, Westbrook made a total of 75 appearances in 82 games, averaging 27.9 minutes per game, averaging 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.5 blocks, and 3.2 turnovers and 2.5 fouls. His shooting percentage was 44.9%, three-point shooting percentage was 32.3%, and free throw shooting percentage was 66.1%. In the playoffs, Westbrook made a total of 5 appearances in the first 6 games. His average playing time reached 25.3 minutes, with averaging 13.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 0.6 steals, 2 turnovers and 2.2 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 41.4%, a three-point shooting percentage of 40.7%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 72.7%.

Westbrook's performance in the playoffs was actually pretty good overall. Although his condition was indeed a little ups and downs, his offensive efficiency was pretty average overall. His performance outside the three-point line exceeded everyone's expectations, and he was able to undertake the tasks of organizing and connecting offense in the second team. However, the problem is that since the Nuggets are indeed unavailable, and the team's starting small forward Michael Porter Jr.'s injury seems to be quite serious, Westbrook also has to stay on the court for a long time, which means that his performance will directly affect the team's victory or defeat. I wonder what Westbrook will perform in G7. Can he help the team win and advance to the next round?
