Can Westbrook find the next home to start its 18th season?

For Westbrook, he still has the ability to compete in the NBA, and can still join a team and play well and even gorgeous data.

But the premise of all this is that he must have the ball in his hand and be able to dominate the ball as he wants on the court, just like in the Thunder period.

Westbrook became famous in the Thunder because of the peak factor, and on the other hand, he has unlimited firepower and plays as much as he wants every night.

Since Durant left the Thunder, Westbrook has become the Thunder's star in an absolute sense. He has won a triple-double and his personal honor has also risen sharply...

However, the Thunder's playoff record in those years is hard to describe, and Westbrook has never led the team to break through the second round.

This is also the reason why Westbrook has been wandering around for the past six seasons since leaving the Thunder for 11 years.

In the past six years, Westbrook has been in the Rockets, Wizards, Lakers, and Clippers respectively, and in the last season, he has played for the Denver Nuggets.

With the decline in physical functions and the monotonous and fixed style of play, Westbrook's zombie-like projection shortcomings were infinitely amplified, eventually becoming a fatal killer move.

There is a great possibility that he will ruin his NBA career.

Since choosing to reject the player option next season in June, the free market opened in July, and now it is only two months after next season. Westbrook is still in a state of idleness and the situation is worrying.

It can be seen that no team in the NBA prefers this triple-double king, even if he is the active triple-double king.

Even if Westbrook has the title of triple-double king, all this will be of no use in the face of a degenerate competitive state.

Last season, Westbrook's athletic ability declined significantly, which led to more blockings from his opponents. Those relaxed layups eventually lost...

In our understanding, a star guard relies more on improving shooting at the age of 36. When he is no longer at the peak, more efficient shooting performance is the biggest foundation for his foothold in the league.

For Westbrook, the biggest lack now is shooting. Although he can easily make rebounds, assists and steals, he can also achieve great things on the defensive end with passion and enthusiasm.

Therefore, the best team for Westbrook is a team that supports and trusts him without reservation, and has a pick-and-roll in the camp that can cover, attack and pass the ball, so that Westbrook can be his own as he wants...

Obviously, there are very few teams in the league, not to mention that there are not even a single one.

Whether Westbrook can start his 18th season of his career will naturally have to be a big question.

When Westbrook made a cerebral hemorrhage mistake, threw an incredible layup, and made bad shooting choices again and again, he was indeed full of passion for playing, but the passion obviously could not make up for the damage he had to the team again and again, right?

Westbrook's shooting has always been bad, and he has the courage to take action even when he is released. Rather than saying that his courage is commendable, it is better to say that it hits the opponent's wishes and successfully fulfills the opponent...

Now, Westbrook is paying a huge price for the first-hand shot he has not been able to practice.
