How glorious the past has been! How desperate it is now! Dragon swims in shallow water and is played by shrimp, and tigers fall in Pingyang and are bullied by dogs. Every all-star river is making people sigh.
Don't buy out! Don't let you play, he's a 4th All-Star, so don't you give face?
He's Kemba Walker, Wooj reported, and Walker and Knicks have reached an agreement not to play the rest of the season, but Walker won't be bought out.
Think about it, Walker is a four-time All-Star, 11 years of career, 7 of which are the team bosses. Now 31 years old, it is the year of the fight. Just don't give a little face? No way, the NBA is the business field.
Why did Walker and the Knicks get this far? Why? Is it Walker's reason? Or is it the Knicks reason?
One, walker status
This season he averaged 11.6 points, 3 boards and 3.5 assists per game, shooting 40% from the field, 36.7% from three-point range, and averaging 2 three-pointers per game.
Walker's regular stats aren't too bad, but look at Walker's high-level stats.
1, shooting distribution map
43 of 89 from the basket, shooting 48 percent.
33 of 83 in mid-range with a 39% shooting percentage
Three-pointers were 73-of-199, shooting 36 percent from the field, and Walker's offense failed in all three shooting areas.
2, positive and negative values
-4.9, no. 1 on the team, and the Knicks will lose a full 182 points when Walker is on the court.
3. Efficiency
Among the Knicks' regular rotation players, Walker's offensive efficiency is 105.4, the team's third-to-last, defensive efficiency is 114.5, the team's penultimate is 1st, the net efficiency is -9.1, and the team's first-to-last.
4. Defensive alignment
This season, against Walker's defense, the shooting rate of opposing players will rise directly from 44.5% to 48.6%, of which the opponent's shooting rate is 56.5% from two-point range and 43.5% from three-point range.
Thibodeau is a defensively supreme head coach, defending Walker, which naturally makes Thibodeau unbearable, you know, this is the second time Thibodeau has DNP Walker.
Two, Ross
After the first DNP Walker, the Knicks were reactivated again because there was really no one to use, but now, with Rose about to return from injury, coupled with the well-defended Burks, the Knicks are not short of people in the backcourt, and Walker naturally has no ball to play.
Third, squeeze out the surplus value
The Knicks want to trade Walker, but they really can't sell, buy out Walker, and a bit of a loss, the Knicks salary totals 117 million, only ranked 23rd in the league, the Knicks have no luxury tax pressure. It is better to just keep it like this, see if you can trade away in the summer, and maybe you can get some chips back. It's just bitter Walker, wasting time on the bench.
Fourth, injuries
If you continue to use Walker, in case Walker comes with an injury, then the summer will be even more difficult to shoot, so don't let Walker play, just spend it, wait until the summer.
So what about Walker's future fate? Where do we go next season? There are two possibilities.
The first possibility, sent away by the Knicks trade, with more than eight million contracts, went to other teams to continue to shine.
The second possibility, which really can't be traded, is that the Knicks buy out Walker, and Walker has a base salary or a middle-class contract to sign to other teams.
At the end of the article, in fact, think about it, the Knicks' dismal record this season, the main reason is that the boss Randall's state has declined too much, if Randall is in hot form, the Knicks have a good record, maybe Walker will not be like this, Walker may just be a victim of the Knicks' dismal season.
Fans and friends, 31-year-old Walker, why have you come to this point? What is the biggest reason? Can Walker make a comeback? Leave me a message to discuss.
