The Lakers defense will not be a problem, and the Lakers now have it
Two of the best defenders of the last 5 seasons!
Recently, the Lakers officially announced that the team officially got guard Beverly through a trade, sending Taron- Horton-Tucker and Stanley Johnson to the Jazz.
In the past few seasons, the biggest reason for the Lakers' loss is the team's defense, and now, the arrival of Beverly has also improved the Lakers' outside defense to a certain extent.
According to U.S. media statistics, among the players who have tried at least 2,000 defensive shots in the league over the past 5 seasons, the top five players who have the closest defender on the field have the lowest limit on their opponents' shooting percentages, they are:
1. Alphabet Brother 41.3%
2、 Beverley 41.9%
3. Ben Simmons 42.2%
4. Thick eyebrows 42.3%
5、 Gobert 42.5%
You know, in the past 5 years, only last season's best defensive player was won by Smart, and the best defensive player in the remaining 4 years came from these five players, of which Gobert accounted for 3
Times, the alphabet brother also took it once.
Today's Lakers, outside Beverley, the inside line has such a thick eyebrow defense, then next season, the Lakers' defense will definitely be greatly improved.
Of course, it is worth mentioning that if the Lakers really trade to Turner, then the Lakers' defense will be further improved, you know, Turner was once the league's block king.
