In just four days, the NBA has added nine more injuries.

This has caused panic among the players, and it is clear that the wave of injuries that began at the start of the season has not subsided, but has intensified.

In the midst of these recent injuries, star players are starting to get recruited.

Warriors star Stephen Curry, Clippers beast power forward Griffin, Pistons one of the three towers Greg Monroe, Nets Joe Johnson.

Four star players have suffered injuries, which has caused the league and head coaches to start paying attention to the protection of their players.

Among them, Monroe, in particular, suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament and was declared out for the season. This has hit the Pistons, who are aiming to use the three-frontcourt combination of "Monroe + Drummond + Smith" to rise, and the prospects are extremely bad.

In the midst of this growing injury frenzy, the NBA officially announced the first trade of the season.

"On November 7, the Warriors and the Lakers made a deal certainly, and the Lakers sent starting small forward Nick Young in exchange for Draymond Green."

The players involved in this deal are very ordinary, so the heat is not very high.

Like Nico Young, although he started every five games in the opening season, his performance was actually not good. He averaged 10.4 points per game and shot only 38.4% from the field, which did not meet the Lakers' expectations. And as a player known for shooting, his 31.6% three-point shooting percentage is also pretty bad.

However, Nick Young also has merit, he has good offensive firepower as a substitute, and his salary is only 1.11 million. In addition, the Lakers' emphasis on defense and slowing down the offensive rhythm in the last five games has weakened Nick Young's role a lot, and his offensive characteristics cannot be shown, so the efficiency is naturally not optimistic.

The Warriors have injured Thompson and Curry one after another, and they need to increase their firepower on the outside. And Nick Young, who can use fast-paced offense, is naturally suitable for the Warriors, so the two sides hit it off and the deal was reached.

Iguodala's arrival has made Draymond Green's status on the Warriors team drop a lot this season, he only averaged 10 minutes per game last season, and in the five games of the new season, Draymond Green only appeared twice, and the playing time was only a pitiful 5.5 minutes, with a performance of 3.5 points, 2.0 boards and 0.5 assists, which is slowly being marginalized.

Such a player, although still young, really does not have much value, so the Warriors did not hesitate to agree to send him out.

For Chu Xuan, Green's arrival made him extremely excited, and he seemed to see the dawn of the future of the Lakers. Maybe the Lakers at this stage can't recognize Green's potential, but Chu Xuan firmly believes that the future Lakers team will definitely surprise everyone.

The three-frontcourt combination of "Green + Noll + Whiteside" made Chu Xuan extremely satisfied with his choice. Although his role in this is only to advise and facilitate, he believes that in the future, when the Lakers rise in the future, his achievements will be recognized.

*******

On a plane to Houston.

Chu Xuan was dressed in a blue suit and sat on a seat by the window.

Beside him, leaning comfortably on the backrest, with a comfortable face, it was Whiteside.

"Chu, are you excited? This is the first time you're going to be on the sidelines, and today's game, broadcast live across the United States, will definitely have your footage at that time. ”

Chu Xuanxiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and his heart was very happy.

This time for the Houston Rockets, D'Antoni made a surprising choice to join the courtside coaching staff. In other words, he was able to show his face in front of the eyes of fans all over the world. Considering his status as a Chinese, once this happens, it will undoubtedly cause a sensation.

Chu Xuan had expected it, but he didn't dare to face it. After all, his goal is to be able to become a head coach in the NBA, so if this is just a show of face, if he can't take it lightly, then it is too bad.

"There's nothing exciting, I think it's normal. It's just a closer look at the game, and then I can give a little bit of advice on the spot, and that's it. Chu Xuan smiled, his expression very calm.

That's what he thinks and sees, but Whiteside doesn't.

"Chu, Yao Ming was famous all over the world as the first player to succeed in the NBA, and he became very rich. And you are the first coach to appear in the NBA, and you are still so young, I believe you will also be very famous. What's more, I've heard from the coaches that you're very capable, and I'm sure you'll be as successful as Yao Ming. You'll be very rich then, too. ”

Chu Xuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"Hassan, in your eyes, why do you always think about money? Isn't this money enough to spend? ”

Whiteside was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "How is it possible, who would be afraid of having more money." I really want to be rich, because I'm used to being poor, I want to be rich, and I hate living without money. ”

Chu Xuan listened, his eyes staring at Whiteside, his eyes flashing with light, but he just nodded.

After a while, Chu Xuan suddenly chuckled: "Hassan, I think we can have a good talk about the game." This ball is your chance to become famous. If you can get the upper hand against Dwight Howard, or if you can embarrass him, I think you'll be the hero of the city when you go back to Los Angeles. ”

Whiteside grinned, revealing a confident expression: "Chu, don't worry, I will definitely embarrass him." He will be a stepping stone to my success, and I am already looking forward to playing against him. ”

Looking at the confident Whiteside, Chu Xuan couldn't help but shake his head: "Hassan, you can't be careless. He's still capable of it, and he's still the best center in the league. I think we can talk a little bit about his weaknesses that will keep you from being unprepared in the matchup. ”

Whiteside nodded suddenly, listening carefully to Chu Xuan's analysis of Howard.

This season is the first year that the Rockets' new core "Modern Combo" has been formed. Judging by the Rockets' current 4-1 record, this combination is quite successful.

In five games in the new season, Harden averaged 24.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, 6.4 assists and 1.0 steals per game. Compared to last season, it was maintained quite well.

His efficiency is efficient, and it also drives Howard's performance.

This season, Howard averaged 21.2 points, 11.4 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game, which is much better than his performance with the Lakers last season.

And he seems to be having a good time, talking about his expectations of the modern group in front of the media many times. Obviously, in such a situation, the most unhappy is of course Kobe.
