Don t regret 7 for 1? Tyron Lu talks about George, do it again for the Clippers, and will still send Alexander away

The Thunder won the championship last season, and Alexander won the regular season MVP and the Western Conference Finals MVP, including the FMVP in the Finals. It can be said that Alexander almost had a Grand Slam. This reminds us of the Clippers' operations in the 19-year offseason, where they traded 7 for 1 and chose to abandon the team's cornerstone Alexander. This deal still has the US media and the US Records talked about, and all the results point to the Clippers, who believe that they are the most failed team in the league and have a good hand of cards to play.

The three young men who won the championship because of the Thunder, Chet, Alexander and Jewway, among which Alexander and Jewway were all obtained by the Clippers. As a result, he spent a lot of money to get George's Clippers, and finally let him go to the 76ers for nothing. Although it finally proves that George is not worth the maximum salary now, you cannot ignore the huge price paid by the Clippers to get George, and the final return rate is 0. What if the Clippers were asked to make another transaction? Will they re-establish Leonard Soha George?

The current answer given by the Clippers is that they will trade George once again. Today, the US media "ClutchPoints" discussed a topic about Clippers head coach Tyron Lue's views on George and Alexander's swap deal. "ClutchPoints" revealed that Tyron Lue does not think that the Clippers' trading George was a wrong decision, because Clippers' management Frank, including team boss Ballmer, also believes that this is a winning operation. The team signed Leonard at 0 price and became the biggest winner, and George was equivalent to getting Kajiao for 7 for 1.

Tyron Lue's comment was: "I think there is no problem with the Clippers and the Thunder. When that deal happened, everyone ignored Alexander and those draft picks, and everyone was looking forward to the combination of Leonard and George. Perhaps only Presti saw hope for the future of the Thunder. It is obvious that even if the Clippers do it again, we will make this deal. In the 19 offseason, for all teams in the league, it is impossible to refuse a rookie to exchange for a superstar like George. If I were asked to choose, I would not have any consideration at all and would trade immediately. Of course, it is also an opportunity for Alexander. He left the Clippers to go to a team that could surround him."

Based on the analysis of Alexander's first-year strength at that time, he did have the potential to become the cornerstone of the Thunder's reconstruction in the next 10 years, just as President Pu predicted. In the first year with the Clippers, Alexander scored 10.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists in a limited 26.5 minutes, with a shooting percentage of 48%, and 37% of three-pointers. He averaged only 8.7 shots per game. In his first year of joining the Thunder, Alexander averaged 19 points per game, and later increased to this year's 32.7 points, 5 rebounds and 6.4 assists, with a shooting percentage of 52%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 37.5%. This score and shooting percentage are quite amazing.

Tyron Lu said that he would still choose to trade after he did it again, which is actually nonsense. It is self-finding, which makes the entire Clippers feel good. It is obvious that after a hindsight, the Clippers' current situation is much better than it is now. First of all, Alexander is in the backcourt and will not overlap with Leonard's position. To put it bluntly, the combination of George and Leonard is that they overlap positions and are both forwards. If there is no deal, Alexander and Leonard are the best combination.

Alexander attacked the backcourt, Leonard had a combination of offense and defense, and then the Clippers could still leave their first-round draft picks and swap rights. Even when the Clippers feel that they lack organizers, they can still get Harden. And the Clippers can still keep Zubac, in other words, not trade Alexander and those chips for George. The Clippers' current lineup may be, Harden point guard, Alexander scoreback, Leonard's small front, Batum, and Zubac's center still has Zubac. Alexander is only 27 years old this year, and the Clippers are losing money.
