Chapter 5: Howard's Farce

In fact, the Warriors management is also looking for a good opportunity to prove themselves.

After the Warriors regrettably lost the championship, among the many sayings, there is one that has to be mentioned, that is, the Warriors' interior line, there is no doubt that the Warriors' interior strength is really not enough. The Warriors' entire interior defense, a little bit of a role may be Claudeson, but I have to say that Claudeson is at best a second-rate defensive level, which cannot support the quality of the Warriors' defense, and in addition to Claudeson, Jobs's defense on the inside is really a bit terrible, it can be said that how much power Jobs can exert on the offensive end, how much power can the opponent show on the defensive end, so many times, the tactics used by the Warriors to focus on the interior often appear, The situation of Steve Jobs and his opponent blowing each other. In fact, there is no way to do this, compared to those muscles, Jobs's strength is indeed not very good. And this time, the Warriors will undoubtedly have to trade him.

Some people even suggested that Jobs be traded to the Magic in exchange for Howard, the No. 1 center in the league today.

Let's just say that it's really a crazy idea.

Howard's ability is undoubted, his defensive skills are definitely second to none in the league, and the offensive end is becoming more and more mature.

Let's start with how crazy it would be if Howard could come to the Warriors. With the diamond backcourt of Keynes and Lin Fei, the inside line with Howard's strong firepower, it is unimaginable, they may build the strongest outside line and the strongest inside line in the league, from the book value, it will hardly give any hope to other teams in the league, just take the Heat team that has won the championship! Although the Heat have a big three, every time they meet the Magic team with Howard, Howard's dominance is enough for them to drink a pot, and Howard can give up and do anything in almost every game. It can be said that Howard is definitely the bitter master of the Heat. Sometimes it's the same on the court, one thing drops one thing, although the Heat team wins the championship, but it may not be able to kill the Magic team, because in the art of war, with their own strengths, the enemy is short, and the strongest point of the Magic team is the center Howard, and the weakest point of the Magic team is precisely the center, when the Magic team and the Heat team are facing each other, under the impact of Howard, this weakness of the Heat team is infinitely expanded, according to the barrel principle, your weakest link often determines the results you can achieve, so, The Magic have been beating the Heat a lot of the time, and that's also because of Howard. And if Howard goes to the Warriors, what else can be said? Whether it's positional warfare or fast break, the Warriors have the sharpest weapons in the league, Howard and Lin Fei are almost unsolvable, plus Keynes, who often breaks out and can't be solved, the Heat have almost no chance of survival. Defensively, there is no doubt that Keynes and Howard can definitely form the two lines of defense of the Warriors, and it may not be so easy for any opponent to break through these two lines. Considering whether the run-in between Howard and the Warriors can go wrong, someone said that if the Warriors are compared to the Magic, maybe the Warriors are more like a Magic team that is constantly running. This may be appropriate, but why? Because the Magic team's style of play is very simple, that is, the inside line uses Howard to prop up the sky, and then the outside line matches him with four shooters, it's as simple as that, and the way the Magic team scores is naturally to give the ball to the outside under Howard's strong inside containment, Howard's teammates shoot, at this point, Howard's teammates almost don't move, just stay at one point and wait for the opportunity to shoot, but the Warriors are not like this, because the Warriors don't have such a strong containment point as Howard on the inside, so they take crazy runs, Directly let the opponent's defense find any points, and then the Warriors will always have a shooting opportunity, and in this way, the Warriors' offensive mode is achieved. One thing they have in common is that they both rely on three points. To put it more figuratively, if there is Howard, the Warriors may become a strengthened version of Magic. Because Lin Fei has more superb shooting skills and faster speed than the Magic team's leading guard Nelson. The Warriors also have a more accurate group of shooters. …,

If there is such a strong combination, even without a head coach, the talent of the team alone may be enough to win a championship.

But, after all, this is just an idea. When the Warriors management offered the Magic, the Magic put forward only one condition, if they wanted to trade Howard, the Warriors could offer two options, one was Lin Fei, and the other was to package Keynes and Jobs in exchange for Howard and Turkoglou (the Magic's biggest headache garbage contract). This point, the Warriors may be unacceptable, Lin Fei They will never give up, and the second plan can build a strong combination of Howard and Lin Fei, which looks beautiful, but the risk is too great, lacking Keynes and Jobs, before the old Nelson created a crazy Warriors team can be said to be unrecognizable, the results are difficult to guarantee, plus Keynes is still so young and has unlimited potential, if he goes to the Magic team, he is likely to become Grant Hill or McGrady as a super small forward during the Magic period, At this point, the Warriors are really reluctant, and in their hearts, the Warriors feel that the Warriors have Lin Fei and Keynes may be double insurance, and Lin Fei's physical fitness is really not reassuring, so the Warriors may be a little more down-to-earth, and at the same time, if the deal is successful, the Warriors have to swallow Turkoglou's big contract, from a business point of view, they seem to be very unwilling.

After repeated trade-offs, the Warriors still gave up on Howard.

Deals for teams can sometimes hurt the feelings of the players. In fact, in the past trade, the Heat got Ray Allen, if the Celtics could take more care of Ray Allen, maybe the super shooter would still play for the Green Shirts, no player wants to be in the team's trade vortex all the time, and sometimes, they even feel that this is respect for themselves, that's it. Both Keynes and Steve Jobs seem to have a lot of criticism about the Warriors' approach.

"Yes, we didn't win the championship, but that doesn't stop us from being one of the best teams in history, and I think if we can stay together, obviously, we're going to do a lot more. No matter what the team decides, I just want to play in peace," Keynes nagged on his blog.

"I'm used to the city, but I don't know how long I'll be able to stay." These are the words of Jobs, and it is clear that he is disappointed by the Warriors' approach.
