What is a cylinder on a basketball court? Anyway, the noun explanation is too awkward, to sum up is that each player has the right to occupy any position on the field that is not occupied by the opposing player (this is called a cylinder), and then the popular point is that a player leaves his own cylindrical space, and the player who has established his own cylindrical space has shooting or non-shooting contact, then the player who leaves his cylindrical space is most likely a foul. To put it bluntly, the offensive players have their own positions, the defenders have their own positions, and if you cross your position to interfere with me, it is a foul!
Transparent point understanding is contact body hair foul, of course, the rules of this thing is naturally more and more detailed, but put on the past Pistons defense, cylinder? What is this, just give you an elbow and ask you if the stab is not exciting! And the active players, Harden, Doncic, Trae Young are all players who have thoroughly eaten the rules, their cylinders are generally pinched to death, directly relying on you to shoot, you have to foul! But there is one player in the active player who can be said to have no cylinder, and that is Curry! What is a cylinder? There is no such thing as Curry here, especially when Curry shoots three points, whether it is knocked down or squeezed down, it is generally difficult to be blown foul!
This is not only Curry himself complained, Iguodala has also complained for Curry, anyway, for Curry is two words: do not blow! In fact, Curry's ability to break through and create fouls is far less than his deterrent power outside the three-point line, and many times he is very strong in making fouls outside the three-point line, but the three-point foul league does not blow a lot, and here in Curry, there are not many three-point fouls. And if there is no cylinder, how to prevent Curry? The Suns made a good start, defending Curry with a forward swinger or faster front.
The Suns sent bridges, and then everyone drew the gourd, the defense Curry used this kind of player in the second and third positions, anyway, he did not have a cylinder, just grab it up, many times it is a squeeze defense, Curry is actually not very good at shooting outside the three-point line, and many times it is forced to fall to the ground. And the opponent now seems to have figured out Curry's shot, that is, every game must shoot a lot of three-pointers, at this time many teams simply gave up the inside line, directly locked his outside line, glued him, the body pressed forward, with the height and arm span of the forward player to interfere, as long as it can not get rid of, then Curry can not shoot three-point shots.
The Jazz defended Curry even more, Royce O'Neal led the defense, although Curry was playing in a large number of no-ball running positions, but the Jazz were delayed, that is, through non-stop delays to make Curry uncomfortable. Three points is fine, but don't think about making a three-point shot so easy. There is a saying that Curry's three-point shots in recent times have not been so fast, in fact, it is related to the opponent's defensive strategy, that is, using the big two players to target Curry, using the body to press, so that Curry is forced to pass the ball and passively shoot three points. But that being said, Curry's three-point efficiency is less than 40%, but you just don't dare to let go. Many times Curry's power of not shooting three points is already greater than the power of shooting three points, and he can often run with two people in a no-ball running position, which makes opponents feel worse than shooting three points!
