Harden is really froze this time, the Rockets also opened a deal with Team 6, and the price of the deal was also released. Another core member of the Rockets team, Wall also expressed a showdown. The NBA regular season continues, and some players are still constantly reaching milestones. Although Howard is still playing on the bench, the data he has accumulated in his early years will allow him to eat for a lifetime. In addition, Durant broke the team history record again after he lost Irving.
First, Harden's asking price came out
After the Lakers and the Rockets game ended, perhaps the strong strength of the defending champion Lakers made Harden desperate, so Harden said something close to a break at the press conference. In fact, this also marks that Harden and the team are completely dead, which has been brought to the table. For the Rockets, it can only be traded now, otherwise it will affect the team this season. The Rockets have talked about Harden deals with six teams, and the Rockets' asking price for Harden has also been released. According to a report written by Tim MacMahon, the Rockets have notified the teams that they want a young cornerstone + multiple first-round picks, or include attractive rookie contracts. But with Harden’s current trouble, the Rockets want to get so much, it is not very likely.
second, Wall showdown
Harden's words after the game were unexpected, and I did not expect to poke the problem to the table so quickly. Harden teammate Wall also had a showdown in an interview. Wall said that if the whole team is consistent, we will be fine. I also mentioned that now only 9 games have been played. Will you give up 9 games? When asked about Harden's remarks, Wall's answer was straightforward, that is, he would not comment. Judging from the current situation, the Harden deal is already a certainty, it is only a matter of time. In fact, Wall's state is very good this season, you can try to use Wall as the core, and perhaps touch the threshold of playoffs .
third, Durant second
Irving has caused trouble for the Nets recently. He has a high salary but does not play. This time Durant is exhausted. In the game against the Nuggets and , Durant played efficiently and scored 34 points, 13 assists and 9 rebounds. It can be described as a father and a mother. Durant has suffered a serious injury before, but in the past 7 games, he has scored 25+ points. Unknowingly, Durant harvested a record, becoming the first player to score 25+ points in 7 consecutive games after 1999. On the other hand, he is also the second man in the history of the Nets. If the next game also gets 25+ points, Durant will become the first man.
fourth, Howard milestone
After the Lakers completed the gilding, Howard moved back to the East. Even if he is no longer the number one center forward, some of the data he accumulated in his early years is still very domineering. In the game against the Heat, Howard sent out 1 block , which also brought his total career blocked shots to 2,137, and has since surpassed Big Ben and ranked 13th in the historical blocked list. Howard was a block madman in his early years, but block data has declined in recent years. It is worth mentioning that Camby ranks ahead of Howard, who has given out 2,331 during his career. Because Howard is too far from him, Howard's career may not be able to surpass Camby.
