With the NBA free agency market about to open, a number of stars will become free agents, with Klay of the Warriors and George of the Clippers being two of them. As top 3-and-Ds in the small-ball era, George and Klay are naturally very popular in the market, and the two will not worry about having no team to join.
But after all, a few families are happy and a few are sad, some people are happy but some people are depressed, Wiseman, who once debuted as a leader in the Warriors, will not be comfortable this summer.
According to Michael Scotto of Hoopshype, sources have revealed that the Pistons will not make a qualifying offer to Wiseman, who will be a full free agent.
As the second pick in the first round selected by the Warriors in the summer of 2020, Wiseman has a height of 211cm and a weight of 109 kilograms. can go around and around, this list is obviously a little obscure, and the story of hurting Zhongyong may be repeated on him.
In the '22-23 season, the Warriors traded Wiseman to the Pistons, ending the story with the center once and for all. In the past, Wiseman more or less complained that he didn't have enough ball control for the Warriors to play to his talent on the offensive end. Therefore, many times after blocking and dismantling the star Curry, it always tends to end in the end. Once Curry doesn't get the ball into his hands, Wiseman will have a lot of words to blame his teammates for not passing him the ball. Such a negative mentality, of course, was eventually abandoned by the team, allowing him to grow in a new environment.
I thought that Wiseman, who came to the Pistons, would completely bloom his talent, because this team is young and there are not too many veterans, and young people will get more opportunities to play, but what kind of report card did Wiseman hand over in the regular season?
He played 63 regular-season games for the Pistons in the 23-24 season, averaging 7.1 points and 5.3 rebounds in 17.3 minutes per game, shooting 61.3% from the field and 0% from three-point range. The data of blocks and steals are also not very eye-catching, and the individual performance is relatively average, and he cannot grow into a qualified starting center.
Even though he got more playing time than he did during his time with the Warriors, Wiseman still didn't play the offensive and defensive ends that the Pistons management was happy with; That is, he was given the opportunity and still did not work, which is why he was abandoned. Even though he had the talent to be a leader, he was eventually abandoned, and Wiseman made me realize that the NBA has always been cruel - if it is bad, it has to go.
A person's starting point is low or high, and it does not determine his future direction, which also makes us understand some things. Like many fledgling students, they have a high degree but their future career is hit hard, mediocre and unnoticed. A high degree can only be a stepping stone, and it does not guarantee that a person will achieve great success in the future.
This is the same as Wiseman, it has only been less than four years since he debuted as a leader, but he has no ball to play.
We have to understand the nature of society and the workplace, if a person wants to succeed in a certain field, he must be the leader. In the workplace, you must create benefits for your boss that exceed expectations, so that you can reap more rewards.
If Wiseman wants to gain a foothold in the NBA, he must lower his posture and work hard to do what a center should do: grabbing rebounds, blocking pick-and-rolls, and defending blocks.
Instead of looking at the high hand and the low, as soon as he came up, he pursued the so-called ball possession and offensive presence, and defended the title with some advanced offsides.
Perhaps, he can try to return to the Warriors to play as a bench, or maybe he will never be out of the NBA...
