Criticism of Irving never stopped, and Harden's deal put Irving on the cusp. In any case, Irving has become the one who has persevered for the longest time, and in the process of persevering, he has also dedicated his energy on the road, and he is being more widely accepted.
New York's epidemic prevention policy has made the fact that Owen does not vaccinate into a more serious matter, and the epidemic prevention policy itself is not a high-level and intelligent policy.
This leads to a restriction on Irving, which instead shows a kind of stupidity. It is this stupidity that exacerbates the Contradictions of the Nets, and without this stupid policy, Irving's non-vaccination is essentially not a big deal.
Some people say that Irving is just fine with the vaccine, but there are not so many problems with the vaccine. This is, of course, true, but it still involves the formality of freedom. Once a compulsion arises, more coercion is generated, and the degree of freedom to protect special cases is actually protecting the interests of most people. Owen is the representative of this type, and behind it represents an ideology.
In American culture, different cultures exist and are their characteristics. During the dunk contest, Anderson wore clothes and shoes in the color of the Mexican flag to prove his origins, which was also a highlight of the game. This is one of the more interesting points of American culture, and as for the intricate relationships and impacts behind it, it is not clear for a while.
Since there has long been a liberal trend in the United States, it will always happen that Owen does not get vaccinated, and there will always be supporters. In fact, Irving has a lot of supporters, and there are many people who do not get vaccinated, but Irving is more prominent because he is linked to the Nets' record.
Irving is a very important offensive force for the Nets, with Irving and without Irving is two different things, the Nets in the period of time Irving did not play, gradually went downhill, resulting in their great need for Irving. But the Nets themselves went downhill, not because of the lack of an Irving, but because of the lack of basketball philosophy.
The Nets practiced durant and Nash's basketball philosophy and did not accept Harden's basketball philosophy enough. After vetoing harden's desired style of play, the Nets are catching up with the lineup's injury boom. During the injury wave, the Nets actually hoped that Harden could score and that he could organize the team together.
That is, I hope Harden returns to rocket mode.
However, during the injury wave, the Nets' lineup (mainly missing shooters) is no longer structurally suitable for Harden to lead, Harden likes a lineup with more shooters, and the Nets have many shorter than projections. After Durant's injury, the situation became more severe, and Harden's already budding departure thoughts began to stir.
The reason for Harden's departure from the team is actually very clear, first, because he did not want to stay in the Nets, Durant and Nash denied his habitual way of playing, he wanted to go to Philadelphia at the beginning; the second is that when the Nets encountered adversity, Harden did not want to take responsibility and took the opportunity to leave the Nets that he wanted to leave.
How much does this process have to do with Owen?
Harden can't have hated Irving for not playing for most of the season, so Harden himself is a dereliction of duty. In fact, Harden still has a few games that have performed well, and it is basically normal when working with Durant.
Durant is the most indignant person after we see Harden being traded, because he knows that if he is not injured, the success of the record will cover up part of Harden's desire to go. The Nets who left Harden must still be the most competitive, because New York's epidemic prevention policy will definitely change, and Irving will return sooner or later.
Now New York's epidemic prevention policy is being attacked by more people, and the stupidity of this policy is being broken by people of insight layer by layer, and eventually this policy will be modified or overturned. In fact, when the time comes, there are many all-star game spectators, and everyone does not wear masks, which proves that the United States has also achieved certain results in epidemic prevention, and there is no need to restrict those who do not vaccinate.
It's only a matter of time before Irving plays the home game, and the Nets are still the biggest winners.
