The Nets big three are integrated
In recent times, the Nets have successively defeated the strong western teams such as the Lakers and Clippers, ushered in a wave of two consecutive wins, and sat firmly on the throne of the first place in the East. This is still in the case that Durant and Irving have triggered a safety agreement and cannot play, and the Nets have recently sent a good news, the Nets released an official message on the 29th, Durant, Irving and Aldridge all three players have lifted the security agreement.
And according to Nets reporter Billy Reinhardt, Irving is going to participate in team training today! This is the first time in the past three months that Irving has participated in team training, so Nash has finally raised the full rank. This season, because of Irving, the Nets Big Three have never played together, and now that Durant and Irving have returned, the Nets will show a very strong dominance and be the first in the league.
James personally inherited the time of retirement
The Nets are not only getting better and better, but the team's main players are returning. But the Lakers have been playing very badly in recent times, and they have played a wave of five consecutive losses before. However, in the game against the penultimate Rockets in the West on December 29, the Lakers did not waste a chance, and defeated the Rockets 132-123. In this campaign, Westbrook and James both got triple-doubles, and James contributed a super-double triple-double with 32 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists.
After defeating the Rockets to stop the decline, James was in a good mood, and after the game, a reporter asked James if he had considered retiring. James excitedly said that he has thought about retiring, but it is not yet half of his career, as long as his mind and body are "fresh", he will continue to play. You must know that James is just 37 years old today, has been playing in the league for 18 years, and according to James's meaning, he can play for at least eighteen more years. For james's personal retirement time, many fans can't believe it.
Embiid rivals Iverson Chamberlain
The 76ers side of the East, because the team's other star, Simmons, has been unwilling to play, which has also made the 76ers' record this season less than ideal, the current 76ers are 17 wins and 16 losses, ranking sixth in the East, and the team has been supported by Embiid alone. In the Dec. 29 game between the 76ers and the Raptors, Embiid single-handedly slashed 36 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists. According to statistics, Embiid is the first player in the history of the 76ers to score 30+ points in six consecutive away games since Iverson in 2006.
In the history of the 76ers, only Embiid, Iverson and Chamberlain have been able to do that. Embiid has already matched iverson and Chamberlain. Today's Embiid is very powerful on the inside, his skills are very comprehensive, and his style of play is relatively tough, in the minds of many NBA fans, Embiid is already the league's first center.
Irving, Durant and Ade all returned, Harden ushered in strong reinforcements, the big three finally joined, and who can beat the powerful Nets in the league makes fans very much look forward to it. James said that at this stage is only half of his career, it seems that the old Jen and Brownie father and son in the NBA to compete on the same stage is definitely not a problem. Embiid became the third in the history of the 76ers after Iverson and Chamberlain, which is really gratifying.
