To say that this season’s most shocking off-season operation, the Houston Rockets sent away the core of the team James Harden, the Eastern strong Nets composed of Harden, Irving and Durant will be the top three of the list. . After experiencing the initial maladjustment of the trio, gained both Irving and Durant’s scoring talent after coach Steve Nash pushed James Harden to the first position on the team. For outstanding performance, often after the beard wins a triple-double in each game, the other two superstars can also hit 25+, and the victory is naturally handed.
So are the Nets really flawless at the moment? The answer is no. After signing two base-paid centers one after another, coach Steve Nash's team interior configuration is still top-notch compared to other championship teams, especially starting center DeAndre Jordan. It is not the unsolvable rebounding king at the peak, but the veteran Jeff Green more time to start, but when facing a seven-foot center, Green, who is only 2.03 meters tall, is obviously unable to take on the heavy responsibility of inside defense.
According to the American media "NBA analysis", the Nets can reach a deal again with the Houston Rockets, and bring veteran Pj-Tucker to New York before the deadline. The former Rockets made the Western Conference Finals. The great hero may be the last jigsaw puzzle for the Nets. The specific transaction of is as follows. The Rockets will send out the main chips Tucker and young players David Nuwaba, House and the second round of 2024, while the Nets will replace guards Dinwiddie, Taylor Johnson and 2024. The second-round pick was sent to Houston; in this deal involving 5 players and the second-round swap, both the Nets and the Rockets got what they wanted.
Dinwiddie, who played at the All-Star level last season, is currently positioned in an embarrassing position. In front of him, Harden and Irving are firmly in the starting position, even though they just averaged 21 points and 6.8 assists last season. 3.5 rebounds and up to 42% three-pointers to prove himself,But for the Nets with excess talent in the backcourt, Dinwiddie can only be the sixth man on the bench at best. But the Rockets that have suffered six consecutive losses are not the same. The head star Wall is constantly injured, and the other backcourt star Oladipo is inefficient and also asks for a big contract. Obviously it is not suitable for the current Houston; on the other hand, the salary is not. High, Dinwiddie, who played a career representative season, is undoubtedly more suitable for the Rockets' current reconstruction cornerstone.
If the Rockets have set their sights on the future, the Nets are undoubtedly experiencing the expectations of the Warriors when they formed the Big Four, which is to win the championship and even create their own dynasty. As a recognized high-quality role player in the league, pj-Tucker has the scarcest defensive hardness in the small ball era. Even if the height is insufficient, the "shoe king" has already proven himself in the playoffs, facing Drummond Green Stars such as Anthony Davis and Anthony Davis have not fallen behind when they are inside. This is what the Nets urgently need.
More importantly, in the past when the Warriors won the championship, the star backcourt and Durant were also matched, but the most important lubricant was Drummond Green. is also a representative of the modern interior. Green's defensive ability and the ability to open space for Curry and Durantra on the offensive end are all necessary for the current Nets, and this is what veteran Tucker can bring Something for Harden. Coupled with the fact that both David Nuevaba and House are both high-quality strikers averaging 8 points and 5 rebounds per game, if this deal is reached, the Nets strikers can be further strengthened!
