Goodbye day at the Lakers home, after the dismissal of coach Frank Vogel there were the classic end-of-season interviews with LeBron James and Russell Westbrook starring.
If, at first, LeBron Jameswith statements that seem more superficial than anything else, he had sided in favor of a permanence of Russell Westbrooknumber 0 spoke much more directly on various issues, starting with coexistence with the other big names.
I know that LeBron and AD have publicly said “Let Russ be Russ” several times, but it wasn’t true, let’s be honest
Westbrook his LeBron and Davis
As for the relationship, definitely never blossomed, with coach Frank Vogel, the former OKC said:
I didn’t understand what problem he had with me
Westbrook su Vogel
Then tracing a summary of his path to the Los Angeles Lakershe concluded by expressing the discomfort felt in living with the environment:
The impression I have is that I have never been put in a position to be able to help the team
Westbrook on his acclimatization to the team
Direct words and in some ways very heavy, which know so much about goodbye.
For those who have followed the events of the Lakers a little carefully, they will certainly not be new or surprising issues, but it is rare to hear a player talking about it so openly.
Time to turn the page then, for Westbrook (we are talking about Hornets and Pacers on the player) and for the Lakers, after an ambitious but quickly failed experiment, and try to find the right team to restart next year.
