As the Rockets officially announced today that the deal with Kevin Porter was completed, the potential star of the former Cavaliers finally bid farewell to his short-term parent team and moved to Houston, and the Rockets are willing to accept this. The time bomb, according to relevant external reports, is because assistant coach John Lucas is good at solving the personal problems of young players.
In fact, looking at the Cavaliers in the past few years, there have been many "freaks" with different personalities like Porter. The 11-year champion Lang Kyrie Irving is undoubtedly the most vivid example. In his first season in the league, he averaged 18.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 5.4 assists per game, and was named the best rookie of the year. The Cavaliers originally cultivated him as the cornerstone of reconstruction. But after a short stay in Miami for three years, James would return to Cleveland in the 14-15 season. Irving, who was already high-spirited, was naturally unhappy. Even if he led the team to win the first championship in team history with James, but he wanted to be the boss, he gradually became a cancer in the team's locker room.
According to previous reports from the US media, during a training session, Tylen Lue specifically pulled Owen aside and talked alone, hoping that the latter could play faster, but Owen directly denied Lu’s suggestion and said he didn’t need it. You can score goals even if you play fast, even if Lu later talked about the team needing him to slow down, Irving directly said, "That's the 23rd thing," and Lu shook his head helplessly. As a team leader, Irving had a disagreement with many teammates in the Cavaliers locker room that year, and even the good-tempered Love couldn't bear it. Even if they finally switched to the Celtics and now the Nets, Irving’s relationship with his teammates is not very harmonious.
In addition to Irving, the Cavaliers have two stinging tumors, and both of them followed the former Cavaliers boss James to win the purple and golden army last season. One of them is JR Smith. He has always been known as a thorn. As early as the Knicks and Nuggets, negative news on the sidelines continued. Although after coming to the Cavaliers, he did not dare to make a second in front of James, but after Lao Zhan When he switched to the Lakers and the champion coach Tylen Lue also left, JR, who had lifted the curse, began to expose his nature again. In the 17-18 season, he even poured a bowl of hot soup on the Cavaliers assistant Damon Jones, and was finally met by the team. Suspension penalty.It is estimated that only JR can do such a confusing "brain-disabled move".
As the Cavaliers’ No. 4 pick in '12, Waiters was even more troublesome than JR. After the team picked Wiggins with the No. 1 pick at the time, he He even expressed his unwillingness to accept the role of a substitute directly on social media. However, as the Cavaliers used Wiggins to trade for Loew to form the Big Three, Waiters, who overlapped with Owen, was also cleared out of the team. Prior to this, the fledgling No. 4 pick thought that his strength was not inferior to Irving, and even repeatedly reported that he had quarreled and even fought with Irving off the court. Even James had seriously warned Waiters in a training class. Do it alone, but be good at sharing the ball. In the end, Waiters, who was tragically abandoned by the Cavaliers, switched to the Thunder and the Heat. During the heat, he directly exploded to the elegant Spoel Tesla and inhaled a series of negative news on the plane. Now it seems that Little Potter is nothing compared to these thorns.
