The NBA All-Star Contest officially came to an end, which also announced that the NBA has officially entered the final stage, who can get the first record in the regular season, who can enter the playoffs, who can quickly improve the status to the playoff level, it depends on the last 20 or so games.
There are more than 20 games left, the NBA trade deadline has passed, leaving room for each team to strengthen is basically gone, and they can only rely on running into the lineup to improve the team strength! However, although the door of the free market cannot be reopened, the buyout market has ushered in a major pearl.
That's right, this player is Dragic! In the Raptors' trade with the Spurs, Dragic was traded to the Spurs! However, the Spurs' purpose is to swing, Dragic is at the end of his career, and wants to fight the championship for the last time, the two sides are not on the same channel at all, so finally through friendly negotiations, Dragic and the Spurs made a buyout and became a free agent.
Dragic and spurs bought out to become free agents, which attracted the attention of a large number of teams, it is reported that the Warriors, Bucks, Clippers, Lakers, Bulls, Lone Rangers, Nets and other teams are interested in getting Dragic.
So many championship winning teams want Dragic for the simple reason that he still has good strength! Although Dragic's data this season fell to an average of 8 points and 2.8 rebounds per game, but his strength is very good, but the Raptors can not attract Dragic's desire to play, if Dragic plays with all his strength, the average of 10+5 per game is still very relaxed, and even has the opportunity to compete for the role of the best 6th person, plus he has a wealth of playoff experience, but also become the perfect puzzle in the eyes of the teams.
Dragic, who was welcomed by so many teams, finally chose to join the Nets after some deliberation!
According to NBA celebrity Shams, Dragic chose to join the Nets, and Nash's recruitment played a major role.
In the beginning of the battle for Dragic, the Lone Ranger should be at the forefront of getting Dragic! Doncic and Dragic have a good relationship, the two are national team teammates, in the offseason last year expressed a desire to play together, and now dragic has become a free agent, is not a good opportunity for the two sides to cooperate.
On the surface, that's true, but from a practical point of view, the Nets are more suitable for Dragic.
If Dragic joins the Lone Ranger, he is going to Doncic, and he now says that he should consider it, proving that the Lone Ranger is not very attractive to him! In fact, Dragic is 36 years old, and the Lone Ranger, with his current strength, can not see the prospect of winning the championship, for Dragic, it is not a good home, and in this way, the Nets have become dragic's best place.
Dragic has a nickname called "Little Nash"! Yes, when he first entered the league, Dragic was a substitute for Nash in the Suns, and Nash helped Dragic improve a lot, so it can be said that Dragic can become an All-Star player thanks to Nash's guidance, and the relationship between the 2 is not ordinary.
Secondly, although the Nets are missing Harden, the team is still strong and is still one of the biggest championship favorites in the league, which has a huge attraction for Dragic! Moreover, joining the Nets now is also a good opportunity for Dragic.
The Nets do not have Harden, although Simmons is very good in organization and defense, but offense is his biggest weakness, coupled with Irving's inability to play away games, the team has a lot of deficiencies in the backcourt! If Dragic can come, he can get more playing opportunities and shots on the Nets, and even playing time of 20 minutes+, which is very suitable for Dragic who wants to continue to perform himself and does not want to be a mascot.
What's more, the Nets head coach is Nash, Dragic's style of play is the same as Nash's, under Nash's tactics, he will play more vigorously, so that he can not only impact the championship, but also prove himself again, such a bright future, is Dragic's dream.
So the Nets have all kinds of advantages, so that Dragic finally made up his mind to join the Nets! And the Nets ushered in Nash Jr., the strength of the backcourt has been strengthened again, not only to make up for simmons' lack of offensive firepower, but also to replace Irving's inability to play at home, which is a double victory for the Nets, the team is also muffled and rich, one step closer to the championship.
