The Durant trade was inevitable for Phoenix.
Phoenix is the No. 1 salary cap team last season. However, it only ranked 11th in the West. The ambitious Bradley Beal was below expectations, and the one-two punch of Kevin Durant and Devin Booker was clear.
Eventually, the system was forced to be dismantled.
Ace Booker was a Phoenix franchise star and the future of the team, and Bill became a non-trade card as his value plummeted.
Durant, who still has excellent shooting efficiency and scoring ability, was bound to be traded.
In the end, he made a deal with the Houston Rockets. Phoenix received a first-round pick and five second-round picks this year with shooter Jaylen Green and 3&D Dylan Brooks.
Considering Durant is 37 years old and there is a risk to his extension contract, it may be the best option.
By the way, the problem is Green and Brooks, who were brought in in a trade.
Phoenix has Booker. He is the best shooting guard in the league who also participated in the Paris Olympics. In terms of scoring ability, he is as good as Shai Gilzer Alexander.
The key card for Phoenix in the Durant trade is the green. He is Houston's starting shooting guard. He is an athlete with explosive scoring and athletic ability.
However, it doesn't go with Booker.
CBS Sports in the U.S. said on the 25th (Korea time) 'FINIX did not recruit a point guard to be paired with Booker'
Booker can act as a ball handler, but he is a player with destructive scoring ability through off-the-ball movements at the same time. However, a ball handler was needed to relieve Booker's physical burden and the role of game coordination.
Green is a player who plays a similar role to Booker.
The media reported that `Pinix has recruited Green, who plays in the same position as Booker. He is a high-utilization but low-efficiency scorer. What if I played with the ball?? He is a player who can play effectively. Besides, there's Bradley Beale.
In other words, Green is not a guard with good off-the-ball movement and efficiency.
