The champion guard is back at the top! Leading the fifth-largest dark horse in the Western Conference, Teague: I heard he is going to the Rockets

On October 30, it has been some time since the NBA regular season started. Now the teams in the league have played about 5 games. Although the sample is small, through these games, we can see whether some teams are competitive. We can also find out which teams have goals this season. Judging from the past few games, the current Western Conference is really chaotic. It can be said that except for the Suns and Pelicans, everyone is competitive.

Even the Jazz and Trail Blazers, which everyone was not optimistic about before, have been in the top eight in the Western Conference since the start of the season. Although the Jazz are a young team, Markkanen has played the firepower of a top star, and the team is full of resilience. This season may become a spoiler in the Western Conference and can win some upset games, thus affecting the pattern of the Western Conference. However, it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to enter the play-offs or playoffs.

There may be only two real dark horses in the Western Conference, one is the Spurs and the other is the Trail Blazers. It is estimated that many fans have anticipated the rise of the Spurs before the start of the new season, but no one expected the Spurs to be so strong. Since the start of the season, they have 4 wins and 0 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference. Wenban has played as a top five star in the league. Castle and Harper have also performed well beyond their years. They have the ability to compete in the playoffs.

The Trail Blazers are now fifth in the Western Conference. The team has 3 wins and 2 losses. To be honest, the two losses were a pity. One was a 7-point loss to the Clippers, and the other was a 4-point loss to the Timberwolves. They were both narrow losses. And since the start of the season, they have defeated powerful players like the Warriors and Lakers. These two teams are now among the top six in the Western Conference, and they also have big-name stars. They even defeated the Jazz today. Perhaps now everyone should understand why Yang Hansen has so little playing time.

Because the Trail Blazers are no longer interested in cultivating young players. Their greater interest is to rush into the playoffs. This team showed great competitiveness after the All-Stars last season, and they once entered the play-offs. The team's young core has gained more goals this season, and they have also been assisted by veterans like Holiday. The Blazers now have their winning lineup and are now one of the hardest bones to crack in the West.

The Trail Blazers' winning lineup is their top five, a lineup similar to the Warriors' five: Holiday, Sharp, Kamara, Avdija and Grant. Their three-point firepower and counterattack are excellent, and their defense is suffocating. Grant and Kamara are both defensive level, and Holiday has been selected for the defense many times. It can be said that the Blazers can rise this season. Holiday is the key to their rise, and he is the soul of this team.

So far since the start of the season, Holiday has averaged 19.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, 7.8 assists and 1.4 steals per game, shooting 51.4% from the field, 28% from three-point range, and averaging 2.6 three-pointers per game. He is now third in points per game and first in assists for the Trail Blazers, and is the Blazers' ball-handling core. To be honest, many fans probably didn't guess that Holiday was able to perform as he did today. After all, Holiday felt like he had lost his peak during his time with the Celtics.

As a result, Holiday has proven himself this season. He is still one of the best 3D point guards in the league. He has both ball and off-ball abilities and is excellent in defense and court control. Although he is 35 years old, he is still the best in the league. He is one of the best pieces of the championship puzzle. The reason why he was able to win two championships is because of his universal attributes. I can do a little bit of everything, and he is at the top level at the same position. If the Green Army didn't think Holiday was old, they probably wouldn't be willing to send him away.

Holiday has brought stability to this young player. Against the Jazz today, it was Holiday's active fighting, stable free throws at critical moments, and his penalty kick tactics at the end that helped the team have the last laugh. Without Holiday, it is estimated that the Trail Blazers will still not be able to rise, but Holiday is not the future of this team. This is for sure. They may reduce Holiday's playing time after Henderson returns.

And the team may even trade Holiday in exchange for the right chips. Which team needs Holiday the most now? I guess many old fans have guessed that, yes, they are the Rockets. The Rockets' offense is so depressing. Even if they lead by a big score, they will be caught up by their opponents, which is unstable. This is because of the lack of players who can control the court. If Van Jordan were here, maybe the Rockets would be No. 1 in the Western Conference. But the biggest possibility now is that Van Jordan will not be back at the end of the regular season.

Under such circumstances, it is a wise choice for them to trade for a suitable point guard. Previously, Teague said on his personal program: I figured it out, Holiday is going to Houston, my God, Holiday is ready, pack your bags, brother, you are going to Houston. I don’t know if Teague is bragging for the sake of the show, or if he really heard the news. If Holiday really goes to the Rockets, then the Rockets will take off.

Having said that, what do you want to say about Holiday now? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
