Westbrook had 7 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists. Alexander surpassed Westbrook with 20+ points in 88 consecutive games! It’s time for Westbrook to consider leaving.

On November 20, the NBA Western Division ushered in a head-to-head battle, with the Thunder facing the Kings at home. Previously, the Thunder had a record of 14 wins and 1 loss, ranking first in the Western Conference; while the Kings had a record of 3 wins and 11 losses, ranking 14th in the Western Conference, only better than the Pelicans. The two teams have met twice this season. Although the Kings lost both times, Westbrook averaged 20 points, 7.5 rebounds and 6.5 assists in these two games. It can be said that facing his old club and the strongest team in the league, Westbrook burst out with strong fighting spirit and energy. In the dozen or so games with the Kings, Westbrook's experience was somewhat inspiring: he was just a substitute at first, but the more he played, the better he got and started playing the fourth position; and in the last few games, Kings coach Christie directly took Schroeder and asked Westbrook to play the main point!

Although Christie was extremely dissatisfied with the negative performance of some of the team's stars, he praised Westbrook greatly. In fact, only Westbrook supports the basic market. Sabonis + LaVine + DeRozan are all on the shelf. The Kings are evaluating their transaction value and may rebuild at any time. Moreover, LaVine is still in a situation where no one cares about him. Although he averages 23 points per game, he loses 18.8 points per 100 possessions when he is on the court, and his on-off value is -17.2. Whoever is paired with LaVine will have his high-level statistics crushed. To put it bluntly, he is a data brusher who does not defend. Another highlight of this game is that Alexander has scored 20+ points in 87 consecutive games, tying Westbrook for second place in history. In this game, Alexander is expected to surpass Westbrook when facing him.

Review the game. At the beginning, Holmgren and Wallace blossomed inside and outside. Westbrook assisted Eubanks to eat the cake, Alexander made an easy layup, and Holmgren dunked with both hands against DeRozan! Westbrook stole the ball and Alexander continued to feed LaVine, and in the next round he stole Holmgren. Under the leadership of Westbrook, the Kings clung to the score all the way, and Westbrook continuously sent exquisite passes to his teammates. In the second half, Alexander blossomed inside and outside, Schroeder responded with a single, and the two sides fell into a tug-of-war. In the first quarter, the Kings 25-27 the Thunder. Entering the second quarter, Wallace and Schroeder continued to shoot three-pointers, Holmgren dunked, and Achiuwa immediately responded by naming Holmgren for a layup. In the middle of the game, the Kings made consecutive mistakes and were stopped. They had no choice but to replace Westbrook.

Achiuwa and DeRozan made sudden shots from inside and outside, but the Thunder bench gradually widened the point difference under the leadership of Alexander. At the critical moment, Westbrook stopped the bleeding with a three-pointer! After that, Schroeder made a three-pointer, DeRozan turned over and made a jumper, Jaylin and Alexander continued to score at the end of the quarter, LaVine hit a long three-pointer from the backcourt and the Thunder overtimed the Kings 58-50 at halftime. At the beginning of the third quarter, Holmgren took the lead and hit a three-pointer. Westbrook faced Alexander and made a pull-up jumper. Alexander's singles were like searching for something, and the Kings offense became increasingly difficult. In the middle, Westbrook fed Monk and hit another three-pointer. Alexander led Dortmund to maintain a point difference of about 10 points. At the end of the quarter, Alexander continued to attack hard and cooperated with Holmgren's dunks. He obviously wanted to clock in the three quarters. At the end of the three quarters, the Thunder 83-69 Kings.

In the first three quarters, the Kings were boiled in warm water. In the fourth quarter, the Kings did not give up. Westbrook led Monk and DeRozan to respond continuously. After Dortmund broke the balance with a three-pointer in the middle, Schroeder stormed + Westbrook fed Leno, and the Kings stopped the Thunder in a wave. In the last 3 minutes, Monk and Schroeder continued to chase points, but Alexander committed a three-point foul, killing the suspense of the game. In the end, the Thunder defeated the Kings 113-99, and the Kings suffered a 7-game losing streak! The Thunder ushered in 7 consecutive victories. After this game, the total record is 15 wins and 1 loss!

King data, Westbrook has 7 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals, LaVine has 8 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, Achiuwa has 15 points and 9 rebounds, DeRozan has 17 points and 5 assists, Schroeder has 21 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, and Monk has 16 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals. According to Thunder data, Alexander had 33 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, Wallace had 12 points, Hatten had 4 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists, Holmgren had 21 points, 7 rebounds and 3 blocks, Mitchell had 13 points and 6 assists, and Dortmund had 14 points and 4 rebounds.

First of all, congratulations to Alexander, who easily scored 30+ points. He has scored at least 20+ points in 88 consecutive games, officially surpassing Westbrook, and second only to Chamberlain in history. The Thunder scored a lot of points, and they caught the Kings' mistakes and counterattacked very efficiently. On the Kings side, LaVine made many mistakes and had low efficiency, and the team's basic support was only supported by Westbrook and DeRozan. Fortunately, Schroeder and Monk on the bench played pretty well. However, there is actually no point in delaying it like this. The Kings have no motivation to win, and Westbrook cannot unleash his greatest value, although he is very hard-working on offense and defense and wants to drive his teammates. To be realistic, the day the Kings send away Sabonis and DeRozan, Westbrook may have to leave. The bad team does not need Westbrook.
