From a champion team to a fish belly team! How long it will take, it only takes 1 and a half years, just look at the Lakers. Looking at the current Lakers, don't say anything, just two words, stomach pain.
Big contracts don't want anymore? Peak in January, bottom in February, will the Lakers keep him this summer?
For the Lakers, this season is destined to be a losing season, but there are still three Lakers players to surprise, but now the three may be changed to two.
Anthony and Reeves, another player who has the potential to no longer be a surprise, Malik. Monk.
Munch has played in 56 games this season, averaging 27 minutes per game, averaging 12.7 points, 3.3 boards and 2.5 assists per game, shooting 46.3 percent from the field, 39.4 percent from three-point range and averaging 2.2 three-pointers per game.
Scoring, rebounding, assists, shooting percentage, three-pointers are the highest in Munch's career, we should have congratulated Munch, this summer is going to get a big contract, but after entering 2022, we look at Munch statistics, in three words to describe,
Roller coaster
In January 2022, Munch averaged 16.5 points, 4.3 boards and 3 assists per game, shooting 49.4% from the field and 48.9% from three-point range, and averaging 3.4 three-pointers per game.
But what about in February? Munch averaged 12.9 points, 3.2 boards and 2.9 assists per game, shooting 40.7 percent from the field and 28.8 percent from three-point range, and averaging 1.7 three-pointers per game.
Heading into February, why did Munch's three-pointer slip so much? Why?
First, the opponent paid attention
In fact, it is normal to think about it, Munch shot so accurately in January, then the opponent will definitely focus on Munch when defending the position. Take a look at the data below.
In January, Munch's empty and large vacancies accounted for 68.3% of the shots.
In February, Munch's vacancies and large vacancies accounted for 58.5% of the shots.
And think about it, the Lakers' other players have mediocre three-point ability, so the opponent can focus on defending Munch. The opponent's defensive intensity increased, and Munch's natural three-point shooting rate declined.
Second, the laws of nature
Munch's low three-point shooting rate in February is not normal, but the high three-point shooting rate in January is also abnormal. The law of conservation of mass is known to all, and Munch is called the law of conservation of three-point feeling.
Three, fall in love
Remember that news in mid-February? Munch and Nick Young's former female friendship is on, and for a time it is on the national hot search, of course, is it in love? Very normal thing. I hope Munch is not inaccurate for this reason, after all, the kardashian spell was once chilling to think about.
The Lakers had two games in March, is Munch coming back with three-pointers?
Against the Lone Ranger, Munch shot 3-of-6 from three-point range and shot 50 percent from the field.
Against the Clippers, Munch shot 2-of-5 from three-point range and shot 40 percent.
It can be seen that Munch is also slowly adjusting his state, gradually adapting to the opponent's high-intensity defense, hoping that after the nightmarish February, Munch can usher in a highlight March.
Regardless of whether the Lakers can reach the playoffs and how far the playoffs can go, for Munch, just do a good job of yourself, after all, this summer's contract expires, is it to continue to get the basic salary? Or take a ten-million contract? It depends on the performance of more than a month in the future.
Haha, is this saying that the Lakers can't make the playoffs? It is estimated that it has offended Lakers fans again.
Fans, are you optimistic about Munch's rebound in March? Big guess, how big a contract Munch can get this summer? Leave me a message to discuss.
