Quote background
The 76ers, driven by Harden and Embiid, have gone all out on full power, and currently have a 26-16 record, fourth in the East, just one win away from the Bucks and out of their early season slump.
With the blocking cooperation between Harden and Embiid, more and more tacit understanding, the chemistry is getting better and better, and the team is gradually on the right track to compete for the championship.
Embiid played in 31 games, averaging 33.4 points, 9.8 boards, 4.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.7 blocks per game, almost the scoring king scoring performance, shooting 53.5%, is the league's only three interior killers (Jokic, Alphabet Brother), under Harden's god-level passing organization, Embiid is scoring more and more easily, cutting 30+ is as easy as drinking water.
And Harden has been clearly stating Embiid's boss status since he came to the 76ers, taking the initiative to hand over the ball, willing to make a wedding dress for the team's Embiid and Maxi, sometimes even the number of role players, but the results are also obvious, 15+ assists are hand-in-hand, playing 27 games this season, averaging 22.2 points, 11.1 assists and 1.3 steals per game, three-point shooting rate of 38.3%, it can be said that he came to the best three-point shooting rate of his career, and turned around to become the best second-in-command around Embiid, Occasionally there was an explosive scoring performance, and he scored 16 consecutive points in the final quarter to close the game.
Maybe the Rockets at their peak will never come back, and they can only occasionally have a flash of inspiration or two, otherwise the 76ers have already become favorites this season, and they need to continue to strengthen the team.
With the deal closing approaching, 76ers management doesn't have much hope of sending Harris away, after all, no team wants to be the big hit, so they plan to make minor repairs and aim for some good immediate power, and the Rockets' Martin came into their sights.
The Rockets are currently 10-32, firmly the bottom of the West, young players still have no improvement, except for singles or singles, you a three-pointer, I a three-pointer, it depends on the feel to eat.
The team's key training object Green averaged 21.5 points, 4.3 boards and 3.6 assists per game, shooting 32.6% from three-point range, shooting quite inconsistently, compared with last year's efficiency has declined, shame on the ceiling Jordan's talent, and the defense is sparse, as a team building core, it is no longer possible.
Another young Porter Jr., averaging 19.2 points, 5.5 boards and 5.6 assists per game, but averaging 3.6 turnovers per game, ranked 6th in the league, there is no possibility of becoming a good playmaker, the ability to handle the ball is too poor, the Rockets must have a good playmaker if they want to rebuild successfully.
And veteran Gordon and Martin Jr. have expressed their position that they don't want to mess with the Rockets, and the days of losing every day are really bad, the most important thing is that young players have no progress, such a swing is meaningless, it will only get worse and worse, and the Rockets management has also expressed its willingness to fulfill them.
Quote chips
According to US media reports, 76ers have already offered Martin of the Rockets, they give such chips!
76ers sent out: Seibre
From the Rockets: Martin + Boban + a second round
What about the chips?
(1) Seibre, averaging 2.4 points and 1.2 boards per game, shooting 41.1% from the field, particularly strong defense, the second in the league of defensive efficiency, because the three-point is too bad, easy to be empty, but unfortunately in the 76ers are not reused, Rivers does not like to use.
(2) Boban, averaging 2.9 points and 1.5 boards per game, shooting 68.2%, extremely high finishing efficiency, obvious inside height, but unfortunately the pace is too slow, can not keep up with the defense, it is estimated that no team will sign.
Martin's performance
Martin is 2.01 tall, averages 10.6 points, 4.8 boards and 1.4 assists per game, shoots as high as 55%, has outstanding finishing efficiency, three-point shooting rate of 32.2%, has a certain three-point ability, but the shooting is unstable, good at no-ball empty cuts, grabbing the front court rebounding ability is very good, the defense is not bad, can change the defense of No. 1 to 3, the size is enough, overall, is a quality 3D player.
summary
The 76ers use Seibl for Martin, it is indeed a good choice, although Seibre is a defensive gate, but it is not used by coach Rivers, and it is of little use to the team, and Martin has a three-point ability, the defense is not bad, in the 76ers can get a lot of open three-point opportunities, three-point efficiency should be improved a lot, and Martin is good at cutting without the ball, the ability to seize opportunities is very strong, he can become a good substitute rotation player.
Overall, the 76ers' operation is a minor fixture, increasing bench depth and stockpiling some good forwards, so be prepared.
The Rockets get Seib, can help Green share the defensive pressure, cover up his defensive weaknesses, improve the team's guard line, at least improve the team's confidence, after all, there are always leaks, will make players lose confidence, but the Rockets have to take a second round, which may hinder the deal.
