Who says the center is down? The glory of the big men is up to them to defend!
Regarding the attribution of the "active first center", the conclusion has been given last season, Jokic's Western final resume + better single-core full attendance leadership + high-level data dominance + playoff highlight + consecutive dominance of the C position, the moment of being crowned MVP, there is no need to continue to discuss.
And Embiid once led the MVP list last season, "East Ensiyo" double star shining to carry the "center revival" banner, but the "Glass Man" attribute brought about by the injury hidden dangers can not be ignored, and his record during Simmons' absence is mediocre, even if the personal technology has been great, after all, it is still half of Jokic.
Embiid can be described as an old unlucky egg, this season's new crown stroke + version change impact, the beginning of the season personal shooting rate fell off a cliff, can only rely on the killing to maintain production, and the "cancer" Simmons is not removed, Philadelphia's overall strength is greatly damaged, once fell out of the top eight is inevitable.
Fortunately, Embiid has recently recovered in form, scoring more than 30 points in 13 of the last 15 games, 30+ in 8 consecutive games, and the Magic 27 points in the game to tie the career-high score, in curry's recent downturn & Durant injury, MVP big hits have a lot of trouble in the case of the big hits.
This season Embiid has once again moved towards a complete killer, making up for the much-maligned handling bag clipping out of the ball weak ring, while focusing on honing the tandem technique.
There are no dead ends in the offensive half-court area - the low back takes into account the body shape and foot advantage + the waist mid-range face frame is easy to break + the three-point line virtual attack frame Zhang bow and arrow are readily available, coupled with the basic plate of perennial defense, embiid does have few matches in the center position at the player level.
Simmons would rather spend money than bow his head and return to the team, the management also ate the scales and iron heart, it is bound to eat a fat man in one step, squeeze out the last value of Simmons, but also to clean up Harris's premium contract, but also successively rejected the Pistons, Eagles, Kings and other interest teams of generous offers.
The Pistons' first-round picks of Grant, SadiqBe and Josh Jackson/Olynyk + can greatly enrich the strength of the forward line to maintain the size advantage, and the 76ers are not cold about this.
The Hawks were also sincere before the 76ers mentioned Harris, but the offer of Collins + Redish + first-round pick failed to impress Philadelphia, and the resources of the full-level possession offense were stretched, and the old road of "Embiid partnering space type four + Harris swinging downwards" was reluctant to make another trip, perhaps one of the considerations.
The Kings have nothing more than to sell, repeatedly compromised and even wished Harris, packing Hield + Halliburton + Barnes + 2 first-round picks in exchange for "West Har" + Sable, but the 76ers were naturally unwilling to overdraft defensive resources to facilitate this.
Is it really necessary to wait for Harden and persevere?
Seeing that Embiid's peak is isolated and helpless, and the impact on the MVP is also quite promising, will the management work in advance and introduce strong reinforcements to escort Embiid and solve the urgent needs of the moment?
After all, the regular season record ranking, is the key factor to measure the MVP campaign, Rao is the 76ers soared to win 26 wins and 18 losses, is still excluded from the ranks of the top half, bulls, Heat, Nets, Bucks are not idle people, Philadelphia's book strength and lack of confidence, Embiid load forward, even if he pours everything out is difficult to beat four hands.
Philadelphia is still planning to play and watch, hoping to gamble a big one in the offseason?
76ers bet on the Nets brothers basketball failure, and then sell assets to create Embiid Harden Twins restart the championship window?
Thanks for your attention, welcome to discuss, Azhe is willing to "ball" with you to get the truth, all the way to the end of the world.
