The culture and water are clear.
We often say that three years old looks old;In the NBA world, third-graders can basically see what the prospects are, just with the current performance of this season, rearrange the 2021 NBA draft, 4 people successfully counterattacked, and the Rockets Warriors twin stars have seriously declined.
2021 Draft Results: Cunningham, Green, Mobley, then Barnes, Suggs, Giddey, Kuminga, Wagner, etc., how are they doing after more than two years of growth?Using more than 20 games this season as a sample, let's rearrange their draft picks.
1. Champion, Scottie Barnes.
In the past 28 games of the Raptors, Barnes has averaged 20 per game on 48%+37% shooting3 points 91 rebound 58 assists 15 steals 14 blocks, in this draft, 3rd in scoring, 3rd in rebounds, 2nd in assists, 2nd in steals, 2nd in blocks, although there is no data first, but the comprehensive data is the best, set "offense, passing, defense" in one of the guard swing man, his draft template was a strong version of Batum, and from the current development direction, a little Leonard feeling.
At the time of the draft, Barnes was picked by the Raptors with the 4th pick, and there were endless doubts in the market, and now, all teams in the league can ask for Sika and OG, but when it comes to Barnes, Raptors management will directly say - no!He has become a cornerstone of the team's rebuild.
Second, Bangyan, Shen Jing.
In the past 24 games of the Rockets, Shen Jing has an average of 199 points 92 rebounds 51 assist, 09 steals 08 blocks, in this draft, 5th in points, 2nd in rebounds, 3rd in assists, 6th in steals, 4th in blocks, and second in comprehensive data, we all know that Shen Jing will become very good, but no one dares to expect that he has become one of the best potential stars in this year, so that everyone has given him the reputation of Little Charizard.
During the draft, even with the aura of Turkish MVP, Shin Kyung still fell out of the lottery show and was only picked off with the 16th pick, and now his performance has successfully counterattacked the first person.
3. Tanhua, little Wagner.
The Magic Wagner Jr. German team was able to win the World Cup, and Wagner Jr. was the second contributor.
The Magic were able to jump to fourth place in the East this season, and Wagner Jr. was the second contributor.
In the last 27 games, he has shot 45%+27% from the field, averaging 201 point 58 rebounds, 4 assists, 11 steal 0Three blocks, especially at the front, are key to the team's ability to accommodate several normal players and make up for the lack of defenders, so if the draft bench is rearranged, he can move up from the 8th pick to the scout.
Fourth, the Nets, Thomas Jr.
Thomas Jr. is as strong as Durant and Irving, and he has not been able to achieve back-to-back 40+ in the Nets, and Thomas Jr. has done it.
Curry scored 37 points on the night, and Thomas Jr. responded strongly with 41 points.
This is Thomas Jr., who has shot 43%+37% from the field so far this season, averaging 231 point, the first person to score in this draft, and another 29 rebounds 24 assists 06 steals 05 blocks, some people will criticize him for playing "too alone", but now, when the Nets don't have a real superstar, they really need Thomas Jr. to play more self-consciously, after all, he has the ability to attack the kaleidoscope, so he can counterattack from the original 27th pick to the 4th place.
The next few are those who have slipped slightly in the draft.
5.Mobley Jr., 57%+20 shooting rate so far this season, averaging 16 points per game 105 rebounds 29 assists 08 steals 17 blocks, not much improvement compared to last year, and failed to deliver on the ability that fans expected of Garnett Jr.
6.Cunningham, although averaging 22 per game4 points 39 rebounds 71 assist, 2nd in scoring and 1st in assists in this draft, but the leader who was seen as the leader at the time couldn't prevent the team from losing 26 in a row, as well as 435%+32.The 1% hit rate made him sorry for the value of the champion, so he could only drop to this ranking.
9.Suggs, once the commander with high hopes, has been 12 seasons so far in the absence of a point guard for the Magic4 points 35 rebounds 25 assists, somewhat out of line with his 5th pick.
So who is the 7th and 8th in line?
5. Pelicans Double-Forward, Jones and Murphy.
Left, Jones;Right, Murphy Herbert Jones, is averaging 11 points, 4 rebounds and 2 rebounds per game on 47%+31% shooting this season8 assists 15 steals 11 block, the stats are not amazing, but fans who have watched the Pelicans game know that he is the team's first defensive iron gate on the outside, and he is also one of the league's best potential 3D rising stars, with excellent defensive ability, allowing him to counterattack from the 35th pick to the 7th place.
Trey Murphy III, 495%+43.1% shooting averaged 161 point, 4 rebounds, 17 assists 07 steals 04 blocks, especially his three-point average, from shooting percentage to 2 per game8 pieces, has become the best outside sniper this year, so he can counterattack from the previous 17th pick to the 8th place.
Sixth, the Rocket Warriors twin star ranks have seriously declined.
Finally, let's talk about the twin stars of the Rockets and Warriors, Jalen Green and Kuminga, who are very concerned about Chinese fans.
Rocket Green's explosive physical fitness made Green's original template praised as "Joe Xiake", but today's reality is 17 per game2 points 47 rebounds 3The data of 1 assist is not outstanding, the shooting rate is still a pitiful 39%+33%, and more importantly, among the Rockets' 9 main rotation players, he is the only one with a negative plus/minus on the court, which is enough to confirm how disappointing his performance is.
That's why Rockets fans will say that Stone still chose the list, but it's Shen Jing!Green's draft pick slipped from the top pick to the 10th pick.
Warriors rising star Kuminga is in the same situation as Green, as well as the Warriors' Kuminga, as the 7th pick, he also has amazing talent, but so far this season, Kuminga has averaged 11 per game with a 49%+26% shooting rate9 points 31 rebound 11 assist, 07 steals 03 covers, there is still a huge distance from the original top template card, therefore, ranked 11th in line.
It is worth noting that the Rockets and Warriors are uniquely talented, but the current projection level needs to be improved, and there is still potential to be tapped, and in the future, they are expected to counterattack again, after all, talent determines the ceiling of the player.
As for the players after the 12th, the 9th pick Mitchell, the 10th pick Zaire Williams, the 11th pick Burkknight, the 12th pick Primo, the 13th pick Duarte and the 14th pick Moody were relatively mediocre and will not be repeated.
Conclusion: 16th pick Shen Jing, 27th pick Thomas Jr., 17th pick Murphy and 35th pick Jones, 4 people successfully counterattacked;The Rockets and the Warriors are two twin stars with explosive athletic talent, Green and Kuminga, who have seriously slipped in the pick, and have a new position after being rearranged in the 2021 draft.
