Title: Thunder three young proudly top the annual trade list, Lillard bows his head in the face of reality?
Deals on the basketball court often make fans feel emotional. There have also been some trades in NBA history that have become classics, especially those involving superstars. Now let's take a look at the top 9 NBA trades of the year, with the Thunder three at the top of the list, while another superstar, Lillard, seems to have to bow his head and face reality.
Looking back on the past few years, whether it is Durant, Westbrook or Harden, the Thunder three young people are undoubtedly the representatives of the strongest forces in the NBA. However, as time passed, their fate precarred. The team's management made the difficult decision to start disbanding the supergroup.
The first is the departure of Durant, which is undoubtedly the most harrowing trade in the history of the Thunder. His joining the Warriors has led to speculation about whether he has betrayed his hometown team. However, as a free agent, he has the right to choose his own future. Although Durant has won multiple championships for the Warriors, his years with the Thunder are still an unforgettable memory in the hearts of fans.
Next came Westbrook's solo responsibility, who became the banner of the Thunder. He single-handedly held up the entire team, averaging a triple-double per game for three consecutive years, showing the dominance of a superstar. However, with the team in trouble again, Westbrook also chose to leave and join the Rockets. This time, he's facing new challenges and team building, but the memories he brings to the Thunder will never be erased.
Finally, there was Harden's farewell, and his glow with the Thunder lasted only a short time. As the youngest member of the Thunder, Harden showed extraordinary potential, but the team couldn't keep him. He was traded to the Rockets, where he rose to prominence as one of the brightest players in the league. A fortuitous choice changed his fate, and the Thunder lost a superstar.
At the other end of the trade list, we spotlight Lillard's superstar. He's been the heart and soul of the Trail Blazers and has huge implications for both the team and the city. However, despite his tireless efforts, the Trail Blazers have been unable to break through the West's powerhouse in recent years. Whether Lillard will bow his head and face reality is unclear.
Although the trade has brought a huge shock, the world of basketball never stops turning. Whether it's the Thunder or Lillard, they have all put in a huge effort on their respective stages. Fate has taken them on different paths, and reality has also shown people the cruelty of the basketball world.
In any case, a trade is not only a trade-off on the basketball court, but also an opportunity for the team to grow and develop. The departure of the Thunder may have broken the hearts of fans, but they left a glorious page in the team's history. Lillard, on the other hand, needs to re-examine reality and find a way to break through. The road to basketball is never smooth, and only continuous efforts can lead to real success.
Basketball is a team sport that requires the contribution and effort of each player. Team spirit is especially important in both trading and facing setbacks. The Thunder are at the top of the trade list in history, and it remains to be seen whether Lillard will be able to surpass himself and achieve a breakthrough.
Let's look forward to the future basketball journey together, and hope that the Thunder will continue to show the brilliance of superstars, and Lillard can also find his own basketball peak. Whether they win or lose, they will go on to be an indelible page in NBA history that will forever remain in the hearts of fans.
