Goodbye the Nuggets! Porter Jr. was tragically traded. Congratulations to Jokic and welcomes top scorer support

Season 24-25, how poor is Porter Jr. performing?

1.6 Real offensive plus-negative value second to last career low, -1.7 Real defense plus-negative value new career low. In short, there is no offense or defense. The Nuggets lost 4.5 points in 100 rounds and the team won 0.2 points in 100 rounds when they were not on the court.

To be honest, if it weren't for the big contract of nearly 40 million, the team would have been DNP long ago - compared to being present, the team is more efficient in winning when not present.

Apart from this, the Nuggets are not without alternatives on the front line. For example, Christian Brown - the proportion of playing third position in the playoffs has increased significantly from 17% of the regular season to 31%, which is one of them. Second, the 57.4% true shooting rate against the Clippers and Thunder is second only to Aaron Gordon and Jokic in the team.

Of course, as a third-year student, Brown still has a long way to go.

Therefore, considering that Porter Jr. has two years of nearly 80 million contracts, it will be difficult for the Nuggets to achieve great things in the new season if it is not handled properly.

According to the NBA China official website, the Nuggets and Nets reached a deal, specifically to send Porter Jr. and get Cameron Johnson in the first round without protection in 32 years.

Why are the Nets willing to accept Porter Jr.

To put it bluntly, the Nets are not teams like the Thunder and the Knicks that are in the championship cycle. After regretting missing "Son of America" ​​Flag, they are going to do the next bad performance.

Since it is bad, there is no need for the record. Therefore, it doesn't matter how powerful Porter Jr. is. What's important is that in this trade, the Nets have a first round that is conducive to bad performance, and it is still unprotected.

However, for Cameron Johnson I would like to define it as a top scorer.

Reason 1: Features. In his 340 games so far, Johnson has made 3,335 shots, of which 2014 have come from outside the three-point line. A 60.4% shooting percentage said that like Beasley, Clay, Simmons Jr., and others, three-pointers are also Johnson's main ending method.

Reason 2: That is, combat power. In 2014, his men made 789 goals and shot 39.2%. Obviously, it cannot reach the historical level of Curry, but it is also a top-notch existence.

There is another point that needs to be mentioned about the three-point point.

In the regular season, when the defensive player is within 4 feet, Johnson's three-pointer rate is 38.5%, which means that when the defensive intensity increases, it can still effectively ensure the finishing efficiency. For example, when facing strong teams such as Pacers, Thunder, and Cavaliers, they can hit at least 5 three-pointers with no less than 50% + three-pointers.

To sum up, we can understand the top scorer as Cameron Johnson ended with three-pointers, and has had a good finishing efficiency across his career.

Finally, congratulations to Jokic on this transaction, and in my opinion, the Nuggets will make sure to make a profit. It is very important that Porter Jr. has proven to be of little help to the team, and Johnson's three-point feature is very suitable for Jokic.
