Wei Shao Evolution helps the Clippers set sail!Harden fought hard for the results and shared his worries
The Clippers beat Memphis 117-106 on the road to cement their standings in the West. In Leonard's absence, the Clippers still came out on top, ending their first loss since Morant's return. Willis was very efficient in the game, as he had 14 points, six rebounds and six assists in 20 minutes. With the arrival of Harden, the Rockets have experienced 6 defeats, and Willis has also been a bench player first. However, whether it is a starter or a bench player, Wei Shao's form is not good. Less playing time and less possession is a big challenge for Wilson, who often has the ball.
Wei Shao was not successful in his new position, but he showed the sense of responsibility and maturity of a mature man. With the addition of Harden, Wei Shao also lost his dominance. He's gotten used to playing a blue-collar position on the team, defending in the corner, stealing on rebounds, and everything is under his control. Coach Lu also noticed this, and he decided to separate Harden from Wei Shao and let Wei Shao play in different positions.
Even if he was deprived of the opportunity to play, Wei Shao never stopped his work, he has always played for his teammates. His evolution is to integrate into the new job in a more efficient way. Willis has also had good results on the offensive end, which is a great way for him to make a difference in the team. Harden and George were both tired, and at this time Wei Shao stepped forward, and this time, his performance was also very good. He has great physicality and can be a good complement to the lack of height in the player's position.
However, Wei Shao still has to continue to run in. He has to stay in his position without the ball, especially when Leonard is not around, and he has to take on more responsibilities. In Harden's absence, Willis' ball control and playmaking will become even more critical. For the Clippers, Willis' contribution is essential. With him on board, there will be a lot less pressure on Harden, which is very important for the growth of the Lakers.
