My crush is a hero! One day he will wear gold armor and ride the colorful clouds to save me! Will Simmons be the Nets' hero?
Could it be worse? Can the sluggish Yuanlang, who has lost 8 three-pointers in a row, get a 250 million contract this summer?
The Nets are 0-3 behind! Durant was heavily criticized by fan media experts! Completely forget, the Nets also have a superstar, in a state of half and a half as much as Durant.
Yuanlang Kairi. irving! Take a look at Irving's three-game stats.
Game 1: 39 points, 5 boards, 6 assists, 6-of-10 three-pointers, 60% shooting, 60% three-point shooting.
Game 2: 10 points, 8 boards, 1 assist, 0-of-1 three-pointers, shooting 30.8% from the field and 0 from three-point range.
Game 3: 16 points, 3 boards, 9 assists, 0-of-7 from three-point range, 35.3 percent from the field and 0 from three-point range.
In the last two games, Irving shot 0-of-8 from three-point range and shot just 30 percent from the field.
Keep in mind that Irving has played in 29 regular season games this season, and only 5 have shot less than 36% of the time. Only 1 three-point shooting rate is 0. Only 4 games scored less than 16 points.
Why is Irving in such poor form in the playoffs? Is there any other reason besides being too hungry?
First, the appearance time
Averaging 37 minutes per game in the regular season and 41.7 minutes per playoff game, I was hungry and panicked, and I didn't expect to play in the playoffs for nearly 5 minutes more than in the regular season.
Second, the number of singles
Not only is there more time to play! And on the field is singles, the regular season Irving received assists to score 35.6%, but in the playoffs Irving's 22 goals, only 4 are assisted goals, assisted goals accounted for only 18.1%.
Three, Smart
The Green Army's defensive alignment is very targeted! Tatum defends against Durant, Smart defends against Irving, Tatum defends Durant very well, and Smart defends Irving even better. Take a look at Smart's defensive Irving stats.
In the three games of the playoffs, Smart defended against Irving for 21 minutes, ranking first in the Green Army.
Under Smart's defensive position, Irving made 15 shots and hit just four of them, shooting just 26.7 percent from the field, including 2-of-9 three-pointers and 22.2 percent from the field.
You must know that Irving is 1.88 meters tall, Smart is 1.91 meters tall, and Smart has just won the best defensive player of the season, and the defensive strength is definitely the top in the league.
If the Nets are really swept out by the Green Army! It is conceivable that this summer's Nets will definitely usher in a big adjustment. Except for Durant, every player has the possibility of leaving.
What makes the Nets management most troubled is probably Irving.
Irving can sign a 5-year, 250 million contract this summer, and Irving's hard power is absolutely worth the price, but the Nets management has a headache.
Owen's quirky personality! What kind of moths will be made at any time, Harden left the Nets this season, think about it, if Irving can play for the Nets at the beginning of the season, do not let Harden be a father and a mother, Will Harden still leave?
Secondly, every year after the first round of the playoffs, Irving will be hungry, the playoffs are not regular seasons, and every game is a life and death battle.
Not just the Nets, every team that wants to sign Irving this summer is a big gamble, not a bet on Irving's decline in form, but a bet that Irving won't make a moth.
Fans, if the Nets are swept out by the Green Army, how will the Nets adjust the lineup this summer?
Simmons, Irving, Harris, Curry, Brown, Mills, Drummond, Clarkston, Dragic, which players should stay? Which players should leave? Leave me a message to discuss.
