NBA news, Kerr officially confirmed, Harden is also very frank, the Raptors want to trade well-known stars

The NBA has only the finals left this season, and only two teams are still in the league. For the rest of the teams, they either went fishing early or just recently, and they have finished the season. However, there are still many news worthy of attention in Linama recently, so let’s take a look at what are them. NBA news, Kerr officially confirmed, Harden was also very frank, the Raptors want to trade well-known stars. We all know that the Warriors have played in the second round this season. For the Warriors, this offseason is very critical. What kind of way will it operate? As the team coach, Cole has officially confirmed something, that is, there is no point in overdrawing the draft pick to trade. It is already difficult to find the next cornerstone player. In recent years, this has been proven. When your player is 37 years old, he will not give away 4 first rounds of 3 swaps to trade.

Actually Cole was not wrong, for this point. You can think about it. When the team's cornerstone reached this age, the championship window has actually been closed. Let’s take a look at the league trend. The teams entering the finals are mainly young cores. As we all know the Warriors' architecture, it is still dominated by veteran Curry. If the Warriors had an Alexander player and Curry retreated to the second line to play support, but the Warriors did not have such a configuration.

Harden has not been idle recently. When he participated in a live broadcast, he talked about Flag, the top scorer this year, he did not hide it and was very frank. Harden said bluntly that he watched Flag's training, which was his own attention. If he did not watch college games, his performance in college would not directly change to NBA performance. Harden is not wrong, college games and the NBA are two systems. However, with Flag's talent, it's only a matter of time before becoming a superstar.

The Raptors have made no achievements in the regular season this season and are only ranked 11th in the Eastern Conference. Judging from the information disclosed by Brian Windhorst, the Raptors are seeking to introduce a well-known star through the trading market. In other words, the Raptors want to trade well-known stars. For the Raptors, they need to do that, too. In fact, the Raptors nowadays just have one star missing. If it works, at least play the playoffs next season. The finals are about to begin, but we need to know that among the champion teams in the past 14 years, only the Lakers, the Warriors, 2015 and 2017, and the Spurs, have not paid luxury taxes. Of course, no matter who wins the championship this year, these two teams will enter this ranks. It has to be said that in the current salary structure, it is actually very difficult to not pay luxury tax if you want to win the championship.
