Heat 6-for-1 chips are exposed! He is unwilling to make a 10+4 substitute and misses Durant, and will focus on cultivating 4 young people in the future

On August 19, Durant and the Rockets' contract renewal have not made any progress recently. It is estimated that Durant is also a little worried now. What if the team does not renew my contract? After all, when you reach this age, it is part of your life to win, and winning the last big contract is also the key. In terms of priority of Rockets' contract renewal, Ethan is ahead of Durant, and Ethan has not yet renewed the contract. The Rockets have enough patience and they are not in a hurry to renew Durant. I guess I also want to wait until the start of the season to see how Durant performs, and then consider whether to renew his contract in advance. Looking at the Rockets' attitude now, I don't know what Durant would think. Maybe he regrets coming to the Rockets. After all, the Heat and the Timberwolves have chased him before and are very interested in him. The Timberwolves give very good chips, but Durant doesn't want to go.

The reason why Durant doesn't want to go is that he doesn't want to assist Edwards. The two play similarly, which is no different from joining Booker, but in terms of Huazi's personality and his performance in leading the team in the past few years, Durant seems to be able to be the second leader. He can still have unlimited fire rights when joining the Rockets. Durant wanted to go to the Heat at the beginning, but the Heat failed to complete the transaction because the chips given by the Heat could not satisfy the Suns.

Previously, the news from the US media was that the Heat was unwilling to give Will, which led to a miscarriage of the transaction. According to a CP reporter, the Heat almost got Durant. According to a reporter from the Miami Herald, the Heat were willing to provide the Suns with a huge trading offer in exchange for KD. The chips they gave were: Wiggins, Rozier, Highsmith, Hax, the 25-year first-round 20th draw and other swap draft picks. To be honest, such a chip like

is OK, but it seems to be better than the Rockets' chips. However, according to famous reporter Shams, in addition to the above players, the Suns also want Nikola Jovic, and Jovic eventually became an obstacle to the transaction. Seeing this, many fans probably don’t understand why even Jovic is unwilling to be a substitute. If he gets on him, the Heat will be able to win Durant and form the Big Three.

I think it was Riley who thought they had given enough chips. The Suns wanted Will before, but the Heat also refused. Will could understand that he couldn't. After all, he became the team's starting center after a rookie, and that tough guy temperament is very consistent with the Heat's winning culture. Why didn't Jovic come out? Because in the Heat's view, he is also part of the team's future plan. Although Jovic is only the No. 27 pick in the first round, he has begun to realize his talent.

Last season, Jovic averaged 10.7 points, 4 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game, with a three-point shooting percentage of 37.1%. His style of play is somewhat similar to Struz. He not only has good space ability, but also has certain ball handling ability. The ball quotient is also very high. After he comes on the court, he can increase the team's fault tolerance rate. Although he is still on the bench list, the team may make him the starting No. 4 position in the future, and he will play with Will or Adebayo. After all, many teams like him now like the space-type No. 4 position.

, and according to US media reports, the Heat will focus on cultivating young players this season, such as Jovic, Hax, Will and Larsson. Jovic just said that to be honest, Hax didn't get much chance last season. It might be because of Wiggins' arrival that Hax was abandoned. Hax played a good performance in the rookie season and won the title of Old Show. He is already a qualified starting lineup.

If he is given a chance in the new season, Hux will probably be able to perform well. He is comprehensive enough and the football quotient is here. As long as he plays, he can help the team. The key is that Hux is not frightened and is willing to do dirty and tiring work. In the future, he may become a Reeves-type player, an excellent panacea. Will is probably familiar with fans who are concerned about the Heat. The Heat team has a good draft vision and won one of the best inside players in the 24th session with the No. 15 draw.

Average 9+7 data in 22 minutes last season, and it is still developing projections. If the projection is developed, the inside combination formed by him and Adebayo will have very terrifying offense and defense. This young man has a tough style of playing. With a height of 2.13 meters, it is possible to replace Adebayo as the Heat's inside cornerstone in the future. It is also a good choice to form an inside double core around Jovic and Will.

Another Larsson, the second round pick that the team won last year, to be honest, his upper limit is Reeves' level and his athletic ability is not good. Although his playing style is relatively mature, the upper limit will not be of much help to the team. It is better to give rookie Yakujonis more opportunities. Having said that, what do you want to say about the current Heat? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
