The current Nets really dare to lose, it is the seventh consecutive defeat, and it is also the longest losing streak in the league at present, and there is no one. At this time, it was rumored that the Nets were willing to listen to Harden's trading plan, but at the same time, they continued to release the news that Harden was not suitable for the Nets system through the media, and this practice of devaluing the core trading value was also unheard of. It seems that the Nets really hope that Harden will leave as soon as possible. It is reported that Harden's true thoughts are known only to Nash, because the two have had a secret exchange on the matter. In fact, Harden is not going now, the offseason will definitely go, the destination should still be the 76ers, after all, assistIng Embiid is the most likely to win the championship.
But the attentive fans are actually not worth it for Harden, he is the super giant who has paid the most for this Nets team, Irving can choose not to play at home, Durant has an unexpected injury, and can no longer help the team improve the record in a short period of time. And Harden not only has to fight with injuries, but also allows Nash to constantly consume his physical strength. The average of 22 points and 8 assists per game is not bright enough, and harden needs a good team and a competitive team to win the championship, and the Nets can't give him at this stage. In fact, the Nets don't really need to trade Harden, but another super giant Irving can trade.
If Harden will go in the offseason, Irving agrees, he has player options, and with his personality and immature mind, it's not impossible to jump out of contract and become a free agent. Some fans have suggested that the Nets should trade Irving, and the target is the Lakers, because the Lakers' current situation is exactly the same as the Nets. Supergiant injury, the top backcourt can not help the team very well, the strongest super giant hopes to win the championship, but now the Lakers and Nets playoff qualification is in jeopardy.
So, fans directly suggested that Owen trade with Westbrook, which was a plan to take what was needed. James can usher in his own championship partner, after leaving Irving, James only won a championship, if you want to win the championship before retiring, in addition to maintaining the big three lineup, re-partnering Irving is the best choice. As a result, James is the biggest winner. And Westbrook can meet two good brothers again, and the Thunder three form a big three in the Nets, so there is no problem of mismatched playing style. Besides, Westbrook's attendance is higher than Irving's, and Harden should have no complaints.
At present, the Nets to leave Durant is 100% certain, after all, he already needs to 2025, Harden to stay the initiative in the hands of the Nets, if you want to investigate carefully, Harden should not refuse the final big contract of his career, so how to sign with the Nets first and then change. If Westbrook can come, Harden will definitely sign a contract to stay in the team. The above trade plan is purely the hope of fans, but it is not impossible, especially the Lakers do not have a good counterparty now, I believe that before the trade deadline, the Nets and Lakers must have a trading plan.
