Thanks to the Rockets! Mr. 30 million is secretly happy, becoming the main force, recreating the highlights of the Knicks era?

After the NBA free agent market opened, the Atlanta Hawks' main operations are as follows:

1, 4 years and 4 years and 62 million signs for Alexander Walker;

2, 11 million signs for Luke Kennard;

3, Capela signs for joining the Rockets;

4, 4, 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 4 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1 years and 1

Relatively speaking, I think the fourth point is the key point.

Description Point 1: Position. Trae Young and Daniels are in the backcourt, which means there is no shortage of defenders, while Walker and Kennard are both playing in the second position - their career playing time accounts for 56% and 58% respectively.

Explanation point 2: urgent need. With Capela leaving the team, Okonggu is the only reliable fifth position in the Hawks. Porzingis's arrival is to enrich the team's center forward thickness - playing in the fifth position in his career accounts for 66% of his playing time.

Only the second point means that Porzingis' chances in the new season are guaranteed. In the 24-25 season with the Celtics, Porzingis averaged 19.5 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. What needs to be explained about the data is:

Description point 1: three points. The three-point percentage was 41.2%. To put it more, the 2.5 three-pointers averaged per game were second only to Vinbanyama and Markkanen among the big players.

Explanation point 2: Protect the basket. 37.8% of the rounds defending the opponent's shooting less than 6 feet, limiting the opponent's shooting rate from 62.0% to 53.6%. The 8.4% reserve requirement ratio cut rate shows that it has the same top-notch basket protection as Gobert, Kessler, etc.

To sum up two points, it shows that Porzingis has distinctive "3D" characteristics and is efficient. Based on this, I think it is very expected to play the highlight of the Knicks era - playing for three years and being selected as the All-Star and No. 2 for the Best Rookie.

Reason 1: Contract. In the summer of 23, Porzingis and the Celtics reached a two-year, 60 million contract renewal, which means that the new season will usher in a one-year, 30 million contract expired. It is an expiring contract, and you will definitely play hard for the next contract.

Reason 2: Main force. As I said just now, the Hawks' center position is very weak after the Rockets' signing for Capela. Compared with Okonggu, Porzingis is obviously stronger in combat. What is brought about, no big surprise is that the latter will be the absolute main player of the Hawks in the new season.

Reason 3: Tactical adaptability. The Hawks made an overall three-point shooting in the 24-25 season, and as mentioned earlier, the three-point shooting is what Porzingis is good at. The characteristics and the team's main ending tactics are largely helpful in making good performances.

Relatively speaking, I think the second point is the main reason.

To put it bluntly, even if a player has strong abilities, he must have the opportunity to show his or her ability, otherwise he or she is likely to be buried. For example, Milicic, the second-tier player in 2003, would not fade out of the league too early if he didn't join the Pistons.

Finally, no matter whether Porzingis can play a highlight in the new season, we have to thank the Rockets. After all, if there is no latter signing Capela, the main force is definitely not stable.
