Nash has become the league's most criticized head coach in recent years, but the Nets really can't do without him. Nash missed three games for the Nets due to triggering a health and safety agreement, and the Nets suffered a three-game losing streak, so Nash is still quite important to the Nets. In the next game, Nash is expected to usher in a comeback, according to the Us media, Nash will return to coaching in tomorrow's Nets game against Boston, and the Nets have achieved a record of 32 wins and 32 losses in the 8th place in the East.
But will Nash's return really solve all of the Nets' problems? It still doesn't seem that simple, because the Nets have a lot of problems this season that not a single Nash can solve, but the good news is that Irving's ban is likely to be lifted in the playoffs, and in this case, the Nets are still very likely to win the playoffs. However, Simmons' return time is unknown, if the Big Three can fit, the Eastern Nets are estimated to have no opponents, but the specific time they will be together is not known.
According to the report of the well-known journalist Stein, the relationship between Wei Shao and the Lakers is currently very tense, and people familiar with the matter said that the probability of Wei Shao staying in the Lakers next season is "impossible". The news he heard was that when Wei Shao was asked to change his character positioning, and when he changed his playing time, he was strongly resisted by him. Next season is the last year of Westbrook's contract, with a salary of $47 million, so it's quite difficult to trade Westbrook out, Westbrook is a player option next season, but he can't jump out of the contract because no one is going to give him such a high salary.
In addition, according to the news of the US media, if you want to send away Wei Shao, the Lakers also have to prepare two first-round draft picks, which is absolutely unacceptable to the Lakers management, so trying to buy out with Wei Shao may be a good way. Of course, you can also ask Wei Shao to jump out of the contract, and then renew his contract for a long time, so that the annual salary is less. However, at present, It seems that Wei Shao's willingness to stay in the team is not great, and if he is sent away without the need for draft picks, it will be a good absolute, but it is absolutely impossible to send him away at a higher price.
The top two teams in the East today, the 76ers and the Heat, will have a strong dialogue, but before the game began, Philadelphia officials said that Harden would not play in this game, but Harden was not in serious trouble, but because of the hamstring injury needed to rest for a while. In the pre-game warm-up, Harden shot the three-point shot very accurately, and there was no recurrence of the hamstring injury as people imagined, which can be said to be no big problem. Now that the 76ers have a good record, harden's truce to ensure a healthy state is also reasonable, and he can't be used endlessly like the Nets.
Harden played a historic level of efficiency in the Nets before the injury last season, but after the injury became a burden around Durant, the 76ers learned such a lesson, the 76ers this season's goal is to win the championship, so Harden's health is the most important thing, anyway, Embiid has been leading the team for a period of time, and they are still second in the East to lose this game, as long as the first round to avoid the Nets can be, there is no need to fight so hard.
