Three big news in one night! Durant s new trends in his next home, Harden has caused controversy again, and James officially speaks out

Basketball

On May 28, 2025, the NBA Eastern Conference Finals continued, and the Pacers defeated the Knicks again, and the series score reached 3-1. The Pacers' running and bombing tactics are too strong, and many balls are scored before the opponent comes back, and scoring is easier than positional battles. Halliburton slowly becomes a physically enhanced version of Nash, and Nash should be slightly better in terms of rhythm. In the past, it was Nash who attracted me to watch the NBA, but later, there were many Spurs. Kidd, Nash and Manu were all rhythm masters, and Paul controlled a lot. Later guards had relatively strong offensive performance, but their rhythm was average. The editor believes that many teams now have a Fisher-like forward revitalizing line, which is more useful than those defenders who always make a lot of three-pointers and make a lot of mistakes. Today, the editor will share with you the latest NBA information, mainly related to Durant, Harden and James. A brief summary is as follows: 3 major news in one night! Durant's new trend in his next home, Harden has caused controversy again, and James officially speaks out!

First of all, Durant's new trends in the next home. According to ESPN reporter Shams, the Spurs are seeking to strengthen their wing depth and partner with Wenban Yama. They are interested in Suns star Durant. After the Suns missed the playoffs, everyone was very concerned about Adu's whereabouts. After all, a superstar like him will strengthen the team no matter where he goes. Some fans think that Durant is too old and it will be difficult to compete for the championship even if it is exchanged. Fox is not an efficient point guard, and Wen Ban's confrontation is too weak to withstand the inside. However, Antetokounmpo's partner Wen Ban is the perfect inside partner. Antetokounmpo's attacking attacks, and there is always one person to protect the basket when defending, but the price is definitely very high. The Spurs do have the capital to trade top superstars. The team includes Wenban Yama and high-quality young potential players who can trade. This year, they have won the second place. But unfortunately, the market is small and Popovich retired again. In addition, if Durant comes, Fox will be redundant. Now it seems that the deal is a bit awkward, but the decision at that time is indeed not wrong, because basically I didn’t expect there will be a No. 2 sign.

Then Harden caused controversy again. According to media reports, 10 years ago today, Harden made 12 mistakes, setting a historical record for the playoffs. The emergence of this data has caused Harden to be controversial again. Some fans said that Harden has fought bravely all his life, but he will never be mentioned in the series. He asked that he had played until the tiebreak in 2018. Deng Ge's performance was as stable and bad as ever in the key playoffs, including Tianwangshan, tiebreak, or the game where he lost. Harden often makes you think he is very powerful in the regular season. He also continues to output in the first two games of the playoffs. Then, he quietly disappears from the beginning of Tianwang Mountain. Sometimes in the broadcast screen, he is like a referee wearing a jersey, watching. The editor believes that objectively speaking, Harden has performed well in both the regular season and the playoffs, and cannot be generalized. For example, Halliburton's performance today was explosive, with only six people in history of 30 points, 15 assists and zero turnovers. Harden actually got it once during the same period, which is enough to prove his strength.

Finally, James officially spoke out. Today, James said in a podcast that seed rankings are not important in the playoffs, and the Pacers have closed the gap at present. There is a strange phenomenon in the NBA today, that is, the home advantage of the playoffs is seriously weakening, especially in a showdown with close strength. The modern basketball showdown has been reduced due to the environment, and the game point is mainly in the offensive momentum. No matter how good the home support is, it cannot withstand the severe blow from a 10-0 offensive climax. In addition, James also said that Westbrook is as unstoppable as a missile when he comes on the court, and we have never seen such a player. I still remember watching the Thunder and the Heat play in the finals, I felt that Westbrook was much more powerful than Durant. He made various breakthroughs, dunks, and jump shots in various emergency stops. Durant usually pulled out, but then he felt that Westbrook was too fierce. Adu was still thin at that time and was not strong in the fight. He turned around and leaned back few times, and basically Westbrook was rushing. Westbrook is very passionate, but his ability to seize opportunities at critical moments is not as good as he has not given the ball to Adu at many decisive moments. The two of them are somewhat dissatisfied, which is also a fact.

The most impressed by Westbrook was that he had a year of fighting the Grizzlies. At the last moment, he made a mistake, but he snatched it back at the last moment, and it seemed that he won in the end. This is Westbrook's game. He can learn anything, but he can't learn talent.
