Zion’s career entered a special period. Although the president of Pelican basketball operations has made some remarks about his departure from the team, it can be imagined that it has not played much role. The gambling website still opened the odds of the next home of Zion on its own, and it is about to send Lillard away. The pioneer who urgently needs the next cornerstone player ranks first. Where on earth will Zion go?
Pelican’s current attitude towards Zion is very contradictory. On the one hand, his talent is unique. He was selected as an all-star in the second season of his career. His career field also has 25.8 points, 7 rebounds and 3.6 assists. In time, he will become the overlord of the basket. Even Pelican President David Griffin agreed: “Zion still has incredible potential and can even change the rules of the whole league.” Pelicans let Davis go, and they don’t want to let Zion go easily. Otherwise, with the influence of pelicans in the entire NBA, it may be difficult to find cornerstone players. This is the reason why pelicans have been reluctant to release Zion.
But on the other hand, Zion is really not competitive. After finishing the above remarks, Griffin, president of Pelican, added: “But at the same time, his repeated injuries are also very serious.” It took only four seasons for Zion to join the league. It only played 114 games, accounting for only 37 percent of the regular season that he needed to play in total. There was also a season reimbursement, which was bloody data.
Outside the court, Zion couldn’t control his mouth, especially liked all kinds of food and never avoided it, resulting in excessive weight. He also broke up gossip with the actress, causing gossip reporters to chase him all day to report. All these things made Pelican executives take no pains and doubt how much thought he still had on basketball. As a result, the Pelican senior officials will release their words some time ago. As long as the price is appropriate, Zion cannot change the door.
But this “as long as the price is appropriate” has baffled many people. Since the Gobel deal, the teams have made a gentleman agreement knowingly. For the stars who want to go during the contract period, they will not pay a large price to deal with him, most of the deals that get these stars are not what his mother team hopes, that is, the deals that go up. The teams of the League have also learned well. If there are stars who want to come to this team, most of them come for the stars in their own team and want to warm up. In this case, take out the team’s stars to trade, which is different from not trading.
Therefore, we saw that the Sun introduced Durant under the condition of keeping the three giants, exchanged a Paul for Bill, and turned to Paul and went to the warrior again. Now the deal of Lillard has designated Jimmy Butler and Adebayor to be unable to move, even Caleb Martin to stay. The Heat still took out shiluo to change the whole alliance. Seeing these, what Pelican executives call “looking for a deal to increase the strength of the team” is purely wishful thinking.
Therefore, although Griffin, president of Pelican, said, “We will never trade Zion, and we have never participated in the conversation of trading Zion.” However, the president’s words are always countless, especially the kind of stars who used to let go of trading rumors and now try their best to retain them. The president’s words may be scrapped tomorrow. In view of this, if Zion leaves the team, what is his next home?
Gambling websites offered odds, and the results showed that pioneers ranked first, rockets and Hornets ranked second, and Knicks ranked fourth. The top three teams are all excluded from the playoff gate last season. This is not an accident, but because such teams often have sufficient draft rights and young players for Pelicans to choose from. It is not easy for Pelicans to find all-star players from these teams, but other aspects are enough.
Pioneers ranked first. If you exchange, nurkich is naturally one of the pioneers who strongly want to trade, but pelicans also have varanchus, so they need to be pulled into a third-party team to accept nurkich. Fortunately, nurkich has a first-hand response. It is a European center with easy functions. I don’t worry that I can’t find the next home. The Lone Ranger is looking for a center who can take the lead. The Blazers can also continue to keep nurkich and list Zion as a power forward. It is also quite promising to form a two-tower lineup.
The Blazers are currently losing Lillard. The team is in urgent need of a cornerstone player. Zion can fill in this hole as long as he is no longer injured and trapped by illness.
As for the Hornets and rockets, the demand for Zion is the same, speeding up the playoff chase of this team. Among them, only the Hornets are the Eastern team. If pelicans have the idea of “not changing Zion to the Western team”, the Hornets are the first choice. The cooperation between Zion and Sanqiu should also be promising. As for the Knicks, they are no longer the enemy in the imagination of the fans. The team is very shrewd recently, and they are not cynical about the players who are in good health. However, given Zion’s yearning for Knicks (such as “I like playing in MSG best”) and his wish to join with Duke’s good friend Barrett, Knicks is not out of consideration.
Where is Zion going? Next season, will it be a change or continue to sink? How long can the top Pelican endure him? We will wait and see the change.
