WOW! Reports suggest the Trail Blazers are pursuing Giannis Antetokounmpo! Another dark horse team emerges in the West.

Such a pity~

In Game 3 at home, the Trail Blazers were overturned by a 15-point comeback from the Spurs, ultimately losing 108-120 and now trail the series 1-2.

Because there was garbage time in this game, our Yang Hansen again got an opportunity to play, securing one rebound in approximately one minute. Remember, the 2019 No. 1 pick Zion Williamson has not logged any playoff statistics in his NBA career to date. *tongue-in-cheek*.

Yes, Zion has played seven years in the NBA but has never experienced the playoffs.

Back to the topic, the Trail Blazers' loss in Game 3 puts them completely in a passive position, as Victor Wembanyama will return for Game 4.

Game 1 proved the Trail Blazers had no answer for Wembanyama, who shot 13-of-21 for an easy 35 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 blocks, leading his team to a 111-98 victory.

It's worth mentioning that Wembanyama, who was sidelined during Game 3, trash-talked Trail Blazers players: "You should have been trailing 0-4."

Huh? Did Wembanyama also learn the Lion's Roar technique at Shaolin Temple? Why did he forget to practice the Iron Head skill?

Of course, being eliminated by the second-seeded Spurs as the seventh seed in the West is not shameful for the Trail Blazers; they have already exceeded expectations this season and are even looking ahead to the offseason.

Recently, Bill Oram, a reporter for The Oregonian, revealed,the Trail Blazers are preparing to make a trade offer to the Bucks to acquire Giannis Antetokounmpo......

Giannis has completely fallen out with the Bucks, and their separation is only a matter of time.

However, for this 31-year-old Greek Freak, previous predictions about his next destination have mainly focused on Eastern teams like the Knicks and Heat, or major Western city teams like the Lakers and Warriors; the Trail Blazers are hardly considered in these discussions.

Perhaps the Trail Blazers believe having two All-Star guards, Damian Lillard and Jrue Holiday, who have previously collaborated with Giannis, can help them stand out by leveraging emotional connections.

To be honest, the Trail Blazers making the playoffs in the competitive West this year proves they are no longer the same team, with many promising young stars and a bright future. They indeed have the appeal to attract star players, similar to the Rockets acquiring Kevin Durant last summer.
