Now the Warriors really should be thankful, thankful for what? Fortunately, there was no lip service brother for platinum before last season's trade deadline, and no mouth brother for Simmons before this season's trade deadline. If this is really a change, then this season's playoffs can really not imagine, who can have Wiggins so defensive and stable output? The playoff round is not discussed, and the Warriors are eager to crush the Nuggets. Who is the best performer in this round of strength in the playoffs? There's no saying for Curry, but who is the Warriors' most consistent, best player on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends? There is no doubt that there is no saying for the mouth brother.
What is the most powerful trait of The Mouth Brother in this round of the playoffs? Is a stable attack + a stable defense! Thompson and Poole are indeed the kind of players who can't say they can hit a few three-pointers per game, and they may not be able to stop it after a game. But conversely, how do Warriors fans feel when these two men hit iron? I was eager to faint on the spot and then packed up at the airport for two boxes of small biscuits to come back, these two people are really accurate when they are on time, but they are also really iron when they are iron. Poole is fine, knows convergence, and does not wave when it is not allowed. But Tang Shen is really confident that he can rival the scoring guard of The Joko level, not afraid to hit iron, not afraid to shoot, shoot with the ball, and give it to Providence if he can't score.
And Wiggins is different from these two people, what is he? Stable! How stable is it? Playing the Grizzlies in four games, the mouth brother has scored 17 points, 16 points, 17 points, 17 points, is it stable? Too stable, and the stability of the mouth brother can not only score stable, but also stable efficiency, no matter what the game is, at least to ensure about 50% shooting rate, this is called stability. And the mouth brother can not only get so many points, but only so many balls, usually his scores, the first three quarters can do, the fourth quarter is almost the whole season of the game to do only two things: defense + grab rebounds!
And when it comes to this rebound of the mouth brother, it is really stable! Grabbing backcourt rebounds is not a skill, grabbing frontcourt rebounds is really powerful. In these games, the mouth brother is to get the rebound in the front court at the key moment, and the field can pick up the rebound worth thousands of dollars. In this kind of playoff, the value may not be so obvious, in case the Warriors reach the Finals, Wiggins can have this level of rebounding performance, it is much higher than the value of a few points. At the same time, the defense of the mouth brother has now become the hardest player in the Warriors, from one to four infinite changes of defense, unlimited locks, Dillon is about to be locked by Wiggins today.
So what really plays the playoffs to the end is not your scoring ability and personal attributes, but the stability at the end! Just like Curry's fourth quarter outburst in the last moment, this is not an accidental outburst, he is often able to have such a performance, usually may not need it, but today he needs it to stand up. There is this trait that is suitable for playing seasons, like Tang Shen, although some games you look very cool, many times the outbreak is a ruthless projection, but like this kind of game to give him the bottom of the curry, Wiggins this type of player. (As a reminder, the mouth mushroom is the first in the whole field today, remember, it is "again"!) ）
