Hupu News, October 20th Today, Kings new aid Russell Westbrook accepted an interview with the media.

Reporter: You mentioned the doubts about the team from the outside world. Will this give you extra motivation? After all, you yourself are often under suspicion.

Westbrook: To be honest, I have always had this kind of doubt in my career. It is nothing new. I'm grateful and grateful that there were those voices of doubt, hesitation, and "not sure he can still play well."

I know what I can do if given the chance. When the season starts and the opportunity comes, I'm going to do what I've always done - compete. Some people will like it, some people will hate it, that's life.

It’s not luck that I can reach my 18th season. I'm grateful to still be here and have the opportunity to fight.

I will continue to maintain this fighting spirit - the motivation to refuse to admit defeat will always be there until I retire.
