The Warriors management's draft vision is really good, most of their current lineup is their own selected players, and Curry + Klay + dream is still the most important core of the Warriors. The seventh pick has a special significance for the Warriors: Curry is the No. 7 show of the class of 2009, and Cuminga is also the No. 7 pick of the Warriors in the class of 2021. Cuminga has not yet played a game, and who is the Warriors' No. 7 show rise? Another player, the North Carolina Blackhawks, was the No. 7 picked by the Warriors in 2012, Harrison Barnes. Averaging 28+10+2 this season, the sixth in the scoring league, if you trade him back to Curry can wake up laughing.
Many people have forgotten this forward player, who was the best rookie player that year, and played with the Warriors in the first four seasons of his career, averaging 12+5+2 per game, and he was also one of the heroes of the Warriors' championship in the 2014-15 season. However, in the 2016 playoffs, Barnes did not play very well, that year was just the contract period, the Warriors gave the contract is not big enough, Barnes chose to join the Lone Ranger (4 years 94 million US dollars). Of course, it is also the departure of Barnes that the Warriors have the opportunity to sign Durant, the strongest forward in the league, and the Warriors' brilliance is also born from this.
Barnes has never been a star, he has never been selected as an All-Star in his career, he has not been in the best team, and he has averaged 19+5+2 in the best season of his career in the Lone Rangers, which everyone thinks is his limit: because he has always fluctuated between 14 and 17 points per game, and he can't go any further. But this season, Barnes seems to be a little different, now Barnes averages 28.3 points + 10.3 rebounds + 1.7 assists + 1.0 steals per game, the score list is sixth in the league, Curry only averaged 29.0 points per game this season, Barnes is actually about to catch up with Curry's average score per game, can you believe it?
Barnes shot 50.0 percent from the field and 55.6 percent from three-point range this season, making him a bit more efficient. The Kings played the Trail Blazers, barnes shot 8-of-11 from three-point range, and efficiently cut down 36 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals. As the Kings and Jazz played, Barnes efficiently recorded a double-double of 25 points, 15 rebounds , 2 assists and 1 steal. As the Kings and Warriors battled, Barnes made 5-of-10 three-point shooting, contributing 24 points, seven rebounds and one assist. With 85 points, 31 rebounds and 5 assists in 3 games, Barnes has completely played the first scoring data in the team in the Kings, and the second place Fox in the team has averaged 18.7 points per game.
The Kings definitely want to train young players like Fox and Halliburton, but who knows Barnes is late and is now super up and playing at the best level of his career. This offseason, the Kings intended to peddle Barnes, Hield and Bagley and others, and at that time, NBA experts suggested that the Warriors should exchange young players + draft picks for Barnes, because Barnes has immediate combat strength and can assist Curry to rush to the championship. Unfortunately, the Warriors have not made any trades in the offseason, and can only use the No. 7 and No. 14 signs to select people. Fans are saying that if the Warriors trade Barnes back in the offseason, Curry will not be able to wake up laughing. Do you think Barnes is suitable for splash brothers?
