Since Adebayor joined the Nets, as many as six players have been selected as All-Stars, namely Durant, Harden, Owen, Griffin, Adebayor and Jordan Jr., not to mention that all six players have been selected as All-Stars in 465 and 438+0. Excluding Jordan Jr., the total number of the five draft picks is nine, which is quite rare in NBA history.
In this way, the rotation lineup of the Nets is:
Needless to say, Perry and Chiozza are both atmospheric groups of the Nets. From this perspective, the Nets' current lineup thickness is really excellent. According to the employment strategy of "five ups and five downs" directed by Guangdong Hongyuan Du Feng, the Nets can also meet it. However, judging from the lineup, compared with the inside line and the back line, the position of the team's front line is indeed somewhat insufficient.
The forward was Maurice Hackles, who was traded to the Kings by the Heat. A player with a height of 2.0 1 m and a wingspan of 2.03 meters has the standard figure of a striker. However, after coming to the Heat this season, I hardly got much playing time due to injuries and other reasons. Hackles' salary this season is $3.6 million, and it is not too difficult to buy out. Moreover, the Nets have two special cases that are useless, which can fully meet his salary requirements this season.
Hax has only played 12 games this season, so it is impossible to know his exact state clearly. Last season, he played for the Clippers and the Knicks. During his time with the Knicks, he averaged 6.8 points, 3.3 rebounds 1.7 assists and shot 28% from three-pointers. The offensive end mainly relies on empty cutting and fixed-point outside line for 3 points. The three-point shooting rate reached 35.6% in the season, and the projection level was average. The inside hit rate is 60. 1%, reaching the league average. The defensive end is Hackles' main selling point. He is tough in defense and has a good sense of defense. He can defend most forwards in the league.
For the Nets, they need a player with excellent defensive performance to relieve Durant's pressure, not how good his offensive end is; After all, the current Nets are not short of offense. On the other hand, they are not short of passing experts who create space for their teammates. Therefore, Hackles's current state can basically meet the requirements of the Nets. If we can't get Porter, hax will be the final puzzle of the Nets championship.
