The Heat have arguably been one of the most transformed teams this season, bringing in title point guard Lowry, championship Puzzle Tucker, and champion center Maurice. Since then, the Heat have joined the championship-winning gene and become a championship-level team, and this season has played a good record of 25 wins and 15 losses so far, becoming the top three teams in the East. Led by championship coach Spoo, it is clear that this Heat is a team that dare not be taken lightly, and last season's defending champion Bucks and this season's First Sun of the West have both suffered on the Heat! It is worth mentioning that today they did not have Adebayo, no Butler, and the full body Clippers collapsed, and the point difference reached 23 points!
The Heat's success this season is inseparable from these newly added stubble, in fact, there are some NBA fringe players who have also played well. Like Jurt Severn, like Caleb Martin, like Strus, like Guy. I will focus on Kelgail, who is the second round of the total 55 show in 19 years, with a height of 1.88 meters, and has Lillard's big heart buff and Kemba Walker's playing style. Not a physically flowing player, but the projection is extremely good, just short in height, the defense is too thin, which also makes the draft pick drop!
You know, before joining the NBA, Kelgay, who played for the University of Virginia, got the MOP (teammate No. 4 Show Hunter ate a dry meal) and stood at the apex of the NCAA. Unfortunately, because of his age (21 at the time of the draft), because of the height problem, because of the defense problem, he almost fell into the draft. In his junior season, Gay averaged 15.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, shooting a terrifying 42 percent from three-point range and 67 percent from the basket. In this regard, it is very similar to big names such as Lillard and Curry, who can hold the ball and can also play without the ball.
After being drafted by the Kings, Guy didn't have many chances to play because of the talent of the Kings' defender line. Fox, Hield, Haliburton, Davis from the Raptors, these four almost filled the time of the guard line. Gay's healthy body, only 34 games in two seasons, averaging less than 8 minutes per game, contributing only 2.8+1+1 statistics, and shooting only a pitiful 28% of the three-point shooting rate. A lot of times, Guy is doing the things that water dispenser players do, like waving towels, like fixing the neck of a basket.
For an NCAA ball-holding big core, not getting the ball is indeed an uncomfortable thing! Fortunately, even without playing out the King, Guy completed the big things of his life, ushering in a baby boy last September. Since the Kings selected the very mature Xiaomi Cher last summer, who can defend, Guy's life at the Kings is also over. The next stop, Guy arrived at the Heat. 1.67 million a year, in fact, looks like a trial and error!
In the Kings' time, the highest performance was in the preseason game with the Warriors, where Gay killed the Warriors with a three-pointer. Throughout the game, Curry performed well, shooting 11 of 21, 5 of 13 three-pointers, and bombarding the full stats of 29 points, 4 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 block; But Guy was more efficient, shooting 7 of 11 in 20 minutes, 6 of 10 three-pointers, and 20 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists. Kill Curry in the way Curry kills, let people shoot the case! But in the regular season, the playing time is gone.
After coming to the Heat, in the Heat's 5 games, he averaged 10 + 1.5 + 2.5 per game, shooting 51% from the field and 45% from three-point range. The playing time is up to 20 minutes, and the game can often see Guy being able to score points quickly, or three points far away, and he is very confident on the court. As if we can see the figure of Duncan Robinson, the lost draft of the first two seasons!
The author feels as if Spoo has the secret of Gay's use, Gay is a good pitcher with the ball in hand, with the ball in hand, more playing time, in order to maximize the value of play. I think Guy has become a very important member of the Heat bench, which can reduce the pressure of Hiro's ball holding and can output firepower for the Heat bench! There are a lot of two-position pitchers like Guy in the league, but the only estimate like Gay's is Jordan Poole. The author feels that in the future, he can bring a lot of value to the Heat, once Lowry is injured, in order not to break the conventional rotation, it is likely that Guy will be promoted to the starter! With outside shooters like Dunroe and bottom corner pitchers like Tucker, I think Guy and they can complement each other! It can be said that the Heat really picked up the treasure this time!
