In this materialistic era of fast food! Eager for success, impetuous and anxious, it is difficult for people's hearts to calm down. The NBA circle is the same, this year's good play, will be blown to the sky, on the contrary, this year's bad play, will immediately be marked with parallel goods label.
Who says he's overdone! Three years ago it was called the league's most watery contract, and three years later it was 1st in the league in assists and 1st in steals
This is such a good guess! He's Chris. Paul, remember that summer of 2019? After the Rockets once again lost to the Warriors in the playoffs, Paul, who holds a 4-year, 160 million contract, is considered by boss Fertitta to be the worst contract in the league, and fan media experts are also contributing.
That summer Paul, the worst moment of his career, the lowest point in his life, and then the Rockets traded Paul, two first-round and two first-round swaps to Westbrook.
Leaving the Rockets' Paul, how great he has played over the years, look at the following four numbers, Fertita's face, it must be a fiery pain.
Number one: 2
This is the number of times Paul has been selected as an All-Star after leaving the Rockets, an All-Star in 2020, an All-Star again in 2021, and Paul this year is still expected to be selected as an All-Star again. After all, the data is there, the popularity is there, and the sun's record is there.
Number two: 10
This is Paul's number of assists this season, but also Paul's unique job, ranking 1st in the league, averaging 2 steals per game, also the 1st in the league, 4.5 assists and turnovers, 6th in the league, ranking ahead of Paul's five people, none of which reached 4.5 assists.
Number 3: 1
This is the Suns' current Western Conference ranking, 36 wins and 9 losses, not only the No. 1 in the West, but also the best record in the league, and the only team in the league to lose the second single digit of the stadium.
So did you know that before Paul came to the Sun, the Sun West ranked? 10th in the West in the 2019 season. That's why this summer the Suns signed a four-year, 120 million contract with Paul.
Number four: 134
This is the number of times Paul has assisted the Suns' three major centers this season, including 88 assists for Ayton, 34 times for McGee, and 12 times for Biyombo.
Under Paul's leadership, Ayton played the style of the champion, McGee ushered in the second spring of his career, and Bi Yongbo went from being a league player to the current king of efficiency.
Why is Paul, 36, still so powerful? When I think about it, there are perhaps three reasons.
One, mentality
People live in one breath, the same is true of the stars, after the age of 32, the physical function declines, but the most feared thing is that there is no competitive heart. The desire for victory has declined, but paul, 36, is still enterprising and still full of infinite desire for championships.
Second, self-discipline and persistence
This is the best way to beat the physical function, or even not one, every offseason, sweating on the training ground, storing enough physical fitness, maintaining the best shape, and constantly polishing technical shortcomings. It takes more effort than young people to stay in excellent shape.
Third, the one who is best at himself
Physical function inevitably declines, but the strengths avoid the battle, as far as possible to exert the power of the pass, the advantage of experience. Of course, we also inevitably see that paul this season has two lowest data careers and one has the second lowest data career.
1,Number of attendances
Averaged 11.1 shots per game, a career-low
2. Score
He averaged 14.1 points per game, a career-low
3, three points
Shooting 32 percent from three-point range, the second-lowest career average, only better than in his rookie season.
Fans, looking back at this deal, the Rockets used Paul plus two first rounds, two first round swaps to trade Westbrook, do you have anything to say? Leave me a message to discuss.
