Russell Westbrook did not fare well in the Los Angeles Lakers' opening game, where his first game was highly anticipated but rather disappointing. It's been several days, and Anthony Davis is now offering some updates on Westbrook.
Now everything in the Lakers camp looks good, and Wei Shao is back to his usual appearance.
Davis said: "He is himself, talking nonsense to everyone. He was still his normal self. ”
Westbrook is one of the most competitive players you'll ever meet, and he always says nasty things in games. Obviously, this will overflow during the exercise. Davis seems happy that Westbrook is back in his old ways, and he's quickly recovered from his forgotten debut for the Lakers.
Westbrook's first chance to save himself came saturday when the Lakers played against Devon Booker, Chris Paul and phoenix suns. This will be a remake of the Suns' quick victory over the understaffed Lakers in the first round of last season's playoffs.
Westbrook wants to have a better performance against the Suns. Unfortunately for him, any effort that is not commendable will be spurned by opponents.
As Jack Nicholson said memorably in "Few Good Guys": You can't control the truth! That's probably what Paul Pierce is thinking now after being named the NBA's greatest 75 players.
Pierce was an absolute beast during his golden days with the Boston Celtics, leading them to a championship in 2008 and winning the Finals MVP in the process. While his career has slowly taken a steep decline since then, largely due to his age, truth will always be one of the league's elite players.
However, one NBA fan doesn't entirely agree with this view. He made an NSFW post on Twitter saying Pierce was not in the top 75.
Pierce replied: Haha!
At this moment, Pierce, who played for the Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards and Los Angeles Clippers, is enjoying his life. While he has been hated by many in recent years for his brief absurd performance as a TV analyst at ESPN, Pierce is simply mocking all the negative rhetoric aimed at him.
Recall that the talented forward has been selected as an All-Star 10 times, once in the NBA Second Team, three times in the NBA Third Team, three times in the Rookie First Team, and three points in the championship. He also keeps a lot of records for the Celtics. Plus, he'll always be one of the most pivotal players in NBA history.
So when Paul Pierce comes under fire for being named to the NBA's 75th anniversary team, he might say another memorable word to those who hate him: That's why they brought me here!
