The power of faith! The Owen incident ushered in a major turnaround, and Boss Cai may make compromises
The victory over the Wizards over the Pros by the Winning Brooklyn Nets in the NBA regular season game yesterday finally eased the pressure after losing to the Hornets. As one of the big three, Irving has once again become the focus of the team, although he has not yet appeared for the team, but according to the latest reports in the New York media: in the Nets home game against the Hornets, a large number of Irving supporters stood at the Home of the Nets to carry out activities to express support for Irving. With the large number of demonstrators, which once led to the closure of the team's stadium doors, the Nets executives also had to reassess the impact of the EU incident on American society, and the US media even predicted that the Nets executives were likely to make concessions and lenient treatment of Irving's behavior.
Regardless of how the Irving affair ends, they are now in a dilemma for the Nets, on the one hand, Irving's behavior does harm the interests of the team, because his absence has seriously affected the team's record, if it is because of injuries that can not play for the team, it is understandable, but Irving is because of the refusal to grow vaccines and can not play for the team, whether it is teammate Durant or the team's management are disappointed in Irving's attitude. The Nets, who aspire to win the championship, definitely do not want Irving to be unable to play for the team under healthy conditions, so the rumors about Irving's trade are also the news of the famous NBA source Wo Shen, and several teams have expressed interest in Irving to the Nets. But the attitude of the team's top management seems to have changed, they are not in a hurry to trade Irving now, everyone knows that Irving is now the Nets' hot potato, if you choose to trade Irving at this time, other teams are likely to take advantage of the fire, the Nets simply do not get a corresponding return in the trade, and the management is absolutely unwilling to eat this dumb loss.
According to the information revealed by Wa shen, the 76ers have begun contact with the Nets hoping to trade Irving with Simmons. Judging from the fame and salary of the two men, this is the only player who can match Irving, although Simmons's offensive strength is not satisfactory, is an organizational guard who cannot shoot, but his defensive ability and passing vision can help the Nets better open up space on the offensive end, and his passing ability will also enable scoring masters such as Harden and Durant to further release their scoring ability. If the Nets successfully get Simmons, then Harden will return to the role of the Rockets, he no longer has to worry about the team's offensive organization, can play his offensive talent to the fullest, that is to say, the Net hopes to use Harden's scoring ability to make up for the loss caused by Irving's departure.
However, as far as the current situation is concerned, the Nets do not seem to be willing to trade Simmons, similar to Irving's situation, after losing to the Hawks last season, Simmons was questioned by the outside world, and the fans of the Seven or Six even called on the team to quickly trade Simmons away, all of which made Simmons heartbroken, he publicly told the media that as long as he leaves Philadelphia, he is willing to play for any team, and has sold the property in Philadelphia, and the determination to leave the team is still very large. From the analysis just now, it can be seen that Simmons can indeed bring some help to the Nets, but with the lessons of the Irving incident, and Simmons' relationship with the team is tense, if one day he turns back to the management, the top management will repeat the same mistakes. So the team has been cautious about the deal over Simmons for now, and the two sides have not made much progress in the swap deal between Irving and Simmons.
Instead, the American media used the deal between the two to make a big fuss, and rumors about the trade between Simmons and Irving were all over the place, but Irving's deal soap opera was not known when it would end. This is likely to affect the Nets' prospects for winning the championship this season, so the team is very cautious about Irving's trade.
