James Curry is all seen as bad! US media predicts that the seven major stars will decline in the new season: James Curry ranks first

Basketball

Both Zhanku’s super giants were regarded as despised! As the offseason is in the process of preparing for the new season, the US media "fadeawayworld" predicts that the seven major stars will decline in the new season, with James and Curry in the top two.

Seventh place: Cameron Johnson

Reason for decline: role change

Cameron Johnson just spent a successful season with the Nets, averaged a career high of 18.8 points per game, and was sent to the Nuggets, which was determined to compete for the championship in the offseason. Everything seems to be moving in a good direction.

But Cameron Johnson also faces huge challenges in the new season. After heading to the Nuggets, he is no longer the core scoring point, and will rank behind Jokic, Murray and Gordon.

He has to devote more energy to converting offense and defense, and the number of shots and touches will inevitably decrease. In this case, his data and game influence will most likely decline.

6th place: DeRozan

Reason for the decline: Age

DeRozan will be 36 years old in the new season. As he grows older, DeRozan's confrontation, physical fitness and athletic ability will decline.

As a stable 20+ scorer who is known for middle distance, DeRozan's efficiency and contribution in the new season will face certain tests and is very likely to be sent away by the Kings.

5th place: Brunson

Reason for decline: The reason for the change in role

Brunson was selected for the list is not because his ability has been questioned. His growth momentum in the past few seasons has become one of the best key scorers in the current service.

is mainly selected because of changes in the Knicks coaching staff and system. New coach Mike Brown emphasized the team more and it is unlikely to use Brunson as extreme as Thibodeau. The latter's data will likely decline, but this may not be a bad thing for the Knicks who are determined to compete for the championship.

4th place: George's decline reason: age and health status

Looking at his career, George rarely has the moments of staying healthy throughout the season and has never played 82 regular season games.

George will be 36 years old again in the new season. As he grows older, his injury risk will inevitably be further magnified, and it is highly likely that the decline will happen.

Third: Embiid's decline reason: Health problems

As George's teammate, Embiid's condition is even worse. He is currently recovering from serious injuries. It is unknown whether he can return in the new season and what kind of performance he can give after returning.

Even if he can recover, he will probably not be able to play the new season based on his durability. The decline is destined to happen, especially after suffering a major injury.

Second place: Curry's decline is reasonable: The loss of helpers

Curry's ranking second has nothing to do with his personal ability. He is still the best shooter in active service and the most exaggerated offensive influence in NBA history.

was selected mainly because of the further decline in lineup configuration. The Warriors are currently the only team that has not completed any formal contract new aid and trading operations in the offseason. They signed the 23-year undrafted Tyvion Jinxi with only a training camp contract.

Fortunately, the Warriors have settled the oral agreement with new players such as Horford, Melton, Brogdon, etc. If the farce with Kumingga can be successfully completed, Curry will leave this list soon.

No. 1: James

Reason for decline: Age and role changes

James is about to turn 41 in the new season, and his physical fitness and condition will inevitably decline further. In the past few seasons, he has exposed his physical fitness problems that he cannot focus on both offense and defense at the same time.

In addition, the Lakers will completely establish Doncic as the core of the team building in the new season, James has to let Quan play the role of the second leader.

This is also good news for James. After all, when he enters this stage of his career, playing the second in command will have more hope of winning the championship.
