NBA storm: Army expansion, injuries and internal contradictions intertwined

Recently, there have been constant major events inside and outside the NBA, and a series of news has touched the hearts of fans. From the league's military expansion plan, to the injury situation of the star, to the internal conflicts of the team, all have become the focus of hot discussion in the basketball world.

NBA President Xiao Hua disclosed the league's military expansion plan in a media program and is expected to meet with all team owners in July to formally discuss plans to expand the league to 32 teams. Currently, Seattle and Las Vegas are the cities with the most likely new teams to be welcomed. This plan has caused many speculations, and there have been rumors that James intends to become the team boss. Although the current regulations are not allowed to hold the team's shares, the expansion plan may have an impact on James' retirement plan. Fans are also looking forward to witnessing the historic scene of James and his son competing on the same stage. On the stadium, the teams are in a stalemate, but the injury to the star casts a shadow on the prospects of some teams. The Celtics officially announced Tatum's latest injury. He has completed the right Achilles tendon rupture repair surgery, and the time for his comeback is to be determined. Medical experts infer that its recovery period will take 9-12 months, meaning Tatum is likely to be reimbursed next season. The Celtics are behind the Knicks 1-3 in the playoffs and lose Tatum, the core player, and the team is likely to be eliminated, and the journey of this season may end.

At the same time, Curry of the Warriors also touched the hearts of fans. According to famous reporter Brett Siegel, Curry is expected to miss his fifth game against the Timberwolves and is expected to make a comeback in Game 6. However, the Warriors are currently behind the Timberwolves 1-3 and are very likely to be eliminated in Game 5, and Curry may not have a chance to play. In the context of the business league, the league may try to drag the game to the sixth game so that Curry can come back to participate in the competition.

In addition to these, internal contradictions of the team have also surfaced. According to famous reporter Ramona Shelburne, even if the Nuggets fired head coach Mike Malone and general manager Booth, the team's conflict was still unresolved. After the second game of losing to the Clippers in the first round, interim coach David Adelman made a speech in the locker room after the game, Westbrook had a fierce quarrel with Aaron Gordon. The reason for the conflict was suspected to be that Gordon criticized Westbrook's playing style. A Nuggets player anonymously supported Gordon, believing that Westbrook is not mature enough. Under such circumstances, the possibility of Westbrook leaving the Nuggets in the offseason increased greatly. These dynamics in the NBA, whether it is the future pattern changes brought about by the expansion plan, the impact of star injuries on team performance, or the speculation on personnel changes caused by internal conflicts in the team, make fans full of expectations and concerns about the development of the league. We will wait and see how the NBA will develop and how each team will respond to these challenges.
