George said he would never go to the Hornets

George, who has undergone surgery, is not idle either. He is still doing a podcast program. This episode invited former Hornet player Davis. In the program, George said that he had never considered joining the Hornets and said the reason.

George said: "Listen, if I were a free agent, I wouldn't consider joining the Hornets at all. Because there is no winning culture there, if I go there, my career would be over. Charlotte is an amazing city, I can imagine living there, but I'll just forget it when I go there. To be honest, I never considered the Hornets in my entire career! "

This is a bit heartbreaking and offensive. Do you have to say this on the show? As the saying goes, stay at the forefront of life and meet again in the future! If the 76ers are determined to trade you in the future, with such a big contract, only a team like the Hornets can afford to play badly. Maybe there is a possibility of going there to play. If you really get traded to the Hornets, do you choose to buy out directly and retire?

George continued: "The Hornets have accumulated a lot of young talents over the years, but their team has a bad culture and do not have the determination to win. Changing the team's image should not only fall on Ball, the top player in the team, and the Hornets' management also needs to take responsibility. Otherwise, they will fall into the young players selected with high picks, but the team still has not changed after the young players get older. Then continue to select young people with high picks, and then cycle infinitely, and this is also a sign of wasting talent. "

"These young people must have talent, but they can't win, which will hit them a big blow. And if this continues for a long time, some of their habits will be changed, they will become disliked and they have no confidence. Even if they go to other teams, it will be difficult to change. "

This passage makes sense. Now the three-ball data is out, and they play very well, but a real strong team probably won't want him because he plays very low in efficiency and does not really defend. It seems that the Hornets are playing for the sake of data.

played 47 games last season, averaging 32 minutes per game, scoring 25.2 points, 4.9 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 1.1 steals, 0.3 blocks, shooting percentage of 40.5% and three-point shooting percentage of 33.9%. From the data, you can see that the efficiency is indeed very low, and you are often injured and your attendance rate is not high. Originally, he was likely to be the All-Star vote, but in the end, the coach's vote and the media voted were very low.

There were rumors of trading between the Clippers in the offseason of three goals and the Clippers, but in the end there was no follow-up. At that time, many fans thought that if they went to the Clippers, the team might be over. This guy has too much ball rights, and he has no defense, and his contract is high. He finally left one George and got another three goals? Fortunately, the Clippers had no idea about the three goals in the end.

As for the Hornets, they have not achieved any results for so many years. Even the player is only Kemba Walker, and after finally leaving, they ended their career in a few years. Moreover, the Hornets have not made the playoffs in 9 years, and the last time they entered the playoffs was in the 2015-2016 season. In the first round of the playoffs of the season, they lost 3-4 to the Heat. The team led by Kemba Walker, Batum and others, and substitute Jeremy Lin was among them.
