"Things have changed in the last few weeks and there has been optimism over the past few days about his return this season. All the Nets players, including Durant, welcomed Irving back and competed for the title together. Journalist Shams said today.
Shames is a well-known journalist who often breaks big news, and his sources are more truthful. Combined with the Nets' performance in recent times, the News that the Nets welcomed Irving is likely to be true. If this news comes true, the Nets' championship dream this season can be realized, and they will become the league's number one championship team. No one can match the Nets in terms of championship prowess.
The Nets have a 19-8 Eastern Conference best this season, and although they are in first place in the East, Nets fans will always have some worries. Because Irving is not there, the Nets will have less confidence when playing against other teams. The Nets have played with several championship teams this season, losing to the Bucks in the opener. Previous games at home that have been beaten by the Warriors have been impressive, without Irving the team lacks an important offensive point, relying on Durant Harden and the strong team to fight is not a real problem. Both were older and needed to rest.
Durant scored 51 points in the previous game to beat the Pistons, and the Nets only won the Pistons by 12 points in the end. If Irving had been there, the Nets would have played many games more easily. Owen was at the peak of his career. His offensive performance last season was phenomenal, with points per game at the top of the league, and he was the only player in the NBA to be named to a 180-club. In the history of the NBA, Irving is one of the few players who have averaged 25 points per game and been selected to 180 clubs. Irving has a super singles ability, and fans who have watched Irving's game will be amazed by his singles ability. Irving is a defensive all-you-can-eat player whoever defends him can find the opportunity to score the ball.
Irving is actually underrated on the defensive end. The Nets' offensive and defensive tilt this season is still evident, with teams offensively strong and defensively weak. Irving has been playing better defensively in the last two seasons, and last season he was an excellent outside defender, both stealing and defending single-handedly. There will also be some improvement in terms of outside defense if he returns to the team.
At this stage, the Nets need to make trade-offs when defending on the outside, if the Mills team has an offense but does not defend. If Brown and Bemburi are used, the team's offensive space will be blocked. So the significance of Owen's return is self-evident. In addition, Harden's decline in form due to injury distress this season is obvious, and offensive efficiency and the past few seasons are no longer a level. At the critical moment, the Nets can only rely on Durant. At this time, if Irving is on the floor, the Nets have a stable end point at a critical moment, and Irving's big heart ability is well known. His killing cases are numerous, and the three-pointer in Game 7 of the 2016 Finals is a historical classic.
The Nets know from top to bottom: The Nets with Irving and the Nets without Irving are two teams. As long as Irving is there, the Nets are the first championship team of the year. The Warriors, Lakers, Bucks, Bulls and even Heatball stars are no match for the Nets. Irving Harden Durant has three good stars on the floor at the same time, is there a way for the other 29 teams in the NBA to limit it? Probably not.
Although Irving is still a long way from officially returning to the game, it is undoubtedly good to have this idea. If Irving can actively communicate with the team and return to the court one day in the future, his previous refusal to vaccinate and the problem of not playing will be alleviated. After all, as long as you win the game and compete for the title together, other things are small things. And fans also want to see Irving comeback, the ultimate home of this genius is the basketball court, and he should come back. Dear officials, when do you think Irving will make a comeback this season? Feel free to leave a comment in the comments section below the article.
