@Bill Simmons : 我认为骑士队得到 DeAndre Hunter 是一笔不错的交易,因为他可以帮助球队在与凯尔特人的系列赛中对抗塔图姆和布朗。我不像 Rob 那样对 Hunter 持怀疑态度。我认为任何时候能得到一个能在季后赛第二轮最后五分钟上场的球员,都是一笔不错的交易。
@Rob Mahoney : 我对 DeAndre Hunter 持怀疑态度,我喜欢会传球的球员,而 Hunter 不太会传球。虽然 Levert 有时会阻碍进攻,但他今年在骑士队表现得像个好士兵,很好地融入了球队体系。Hunter 今年看起来像他被选中时人们期望的样子,能投篮并创造投篮机会。
@Wosny Lambre : Hunter 看起来像个能防守塔图姆和布朗的大个子,但实际上他只是个进攻球员。骑士队希望阵容更灵活,能够使用不同的球员组合。当球队表现良好时进行交易,扰乱球队的化学反应和氛围是有风险的。老鹰队在 Jalen Johnson 受伤后就开始摆烂了。老鹰队认为 Hunter 的价值已经耗尽,所以想从他身上得到一些回报。
