As we all know, 1 1- 12 was defeated by Miami Big Three in the finals. Just when everyone thought they would make a comeback, President Pu unexpectedly sent Harden away, and then Durant, Ibaka and others left.
Looking at it from another angle, Durant, Harden and Ibaka were all signed by the general manager with the first round draft pick. Even the "Neptune" Adams, who traded to the Pelicans a few days ago, was signed by the Thunder in the first round.
Since the opening of the free market, there have indeed been several big deals that can change the direction of the alliance. However, as far as "magic" is concerned, I believe no team deserves it more than Oklahoma City Thunder! In less than two days, the main lineup of the Thunder team last season was "cleared" one by one except the rookie Alexander of the second year!
Since the opening of the free market, Thunder has traded four main lineups (Schroeder, Paul, Ferguson and Adams). Schroeder's strength on the offensive end is obvious to all, but Thunder is famous for its defense, and it is reasonable to trade him. Although Paul proved his worth with strength, the contract was too big and Paul had a history of injuries, which was like a time bomb. People expect it to send him away.
The most puzzling thing is Adams, known as "Ka Feng". You know, Adams is not only a top "cookie eater", but also an excellent blue-collar offensive rebounder. Adams is the only insider who has averaged more offensive rebounds than defensive rebounds for two consecutive seasons. With this, I don't know how many teams regard Adams as a beacon. As a result, Thunder only changed a protected first-round draw+two second-round draws+George Hill+Miller.
After this transaction, according to incomplete statistics, the Thunder will have the first round draft pick of 19 in the next seven years. 19 what is the concept of the first round draft pick?
Some fans ridiculed: "Don't worry about the future Thunder lineup! The first round of signing is the top five tigers, and the second round is the substitute lineup. " Some fans also ridiculed: "The Thunder team has actually established the overall situation. I have been able to sign three MVPs in the first round for three consecutive years, and now I have won 19 first-round signings in the next seven years, at least not monopolizing the all-star lineup in the next decade!
