In previous years, the Nets' management appeared to be in a hurry, making a big deal with the Celtics. The veterans in exchange are already heroic and late, and it is difficult to lead the team to play a beautiful record, but they have sent away three draft picks and an exchange right, which has made the general manager of the Green Army Angel happy for several years.
The Struggling, weight-bearing Nets are forced to play a dark mess, and teams that don't even have the right to draft seem to have lost their future.
。
。 Le Vere, Dinwiddie, Harris, Allen, etc., these unknown young people burst out of potential, and years of defeat have caused the team to become extremely tough.
There are two superstars in the injury list, Durant and Irving.
A championship team, there must be a top pitcher in the team. Not only can it open up space for the star's singles, but it can also complete the heavy responsibility of receiving the ball and sharing the pressure when the star encounters the bag.
Joe Harris, born in 1991. He is 1.98 meters tall and weighs 102 kg, with a typical scoring guard figure. He also handed over good statistics during his college years, playing for the University of Virginia for a total of 135 games, averaging 12.5 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game, and ranked 11th in the school's history scoring list with a total score of 1698 points; a total of 263 three-pointers, and with a 40.7% three-point shooting rate, it ranked second in the school's history three-point list.
。 The ability to run and jump is not good enough, can not adapt to the intensity of the league, does not have a good ability to hold the ball, the arm span is too short to become a defender, the age is too old, the white shooter...
In the end, the unpretentious and excellent shooter was not picked by the Cavaliers until the 33rd pick in the second round.
。 But pitchers were needed in the lineup at the time, and the team kept Harris on a three-year, $2.33 million contract.
Heaven rewards hard work, but sometimes, people who work hard are still a little lucky.
Despite the talent pool, Harris made 51 appearances throughout his rookie season, and one of them was still a starter. Averaging 9.6 minutes per game, he was able to score 2.7 points. Although the statistics are very inconspicuous, and the team status is also a dispensable small role, harris's shooting skills have been further improved in the side of James Jones, Mike Miller, and other top pitchers.
Playing with James also made Harris know well:
At the end of the rookie season, Harris did not go on vacations and spend money in nightclubs like other rookies who got contracts. He knows that playing around James, as long as he has superb projection ability, and empty cutting ability can be integrated into this team.
Just when the confident Harris thinks he can help the team in the second season. The Cavaliers didn't have time to take care of the injured white shooter, so they traded it to the Magic, returning it to a protected second-round pick.
Harris, who was sent to the Magic, also didn't get the attention. When the outside world thinks that the career of this second-round show has come to an end.
Life is like a box of chocolate candy, you never know what the next piece will taste like, and you never know what surprises lie behind the corner.
At first, the Nets were not optimistic about Harris's ability, but due to the lack of pitchers who could shoot, they gave the white man a shooting session. After experiencing a major injury, Harris not only improved his shooting and defense, but more importantly:
After a turbulent season, Dinwiddie's rapid growth, the team welcomed Russell, suddenly let the field have two brains, coupled with a strong offensive and defensive strength on the front line, as a pitcher Harris finally played a particularly comfortable season.
When Irving and Durant both joined, and both hung up the exemption card due to injury, Dinwiddie, Harris, and Le Ver stepped forward.
Scalpel-like empty cut, flexible and agile running position, accurate three-pointers, good defensive awareness and low defense, sorry I am not talking about Klay Thompson, but Joe Harris.
A positive and focused attitude to win has made Harris the team's starting quarterback, playing 63 games and starting every game. And in the absence of the core of the team, it tried to carry the team forward.
Leaving aside the stereotype of a pure shooter, Harris has an unexpected basket finish, with delicate handwork. He is not a pure shooter like Redick, he has a certain ability to hold the ball, shooting 29.1% under the basket and 11.3% in close range, indicating that Harris is a three-point shooter, but not only will he shoot three points, but also a major offensive weapon to break through the basket and break through the half-intercept.
And with accurate three-pointers, it's very difficult for a player to defend. When the basket encounters a block from the big man on the inside, he can not only use the lever to end the attack, but also break into teammates to create opportunities, and the 10.8% assist rate shows that Harris has a certain passing ability.
。 Dinwiddie has a wide field of vision to get the ball anywhere, and coupled with Harris's astute running position, he often gets an empty three-point opportunity, with a breakthrough layup on the empty cut inside.
Harris received three-pointers through cover, shot 3.9 times per game, and scored 1.33 points, ranking among the top in the league. Coupled with jordan jr. and allen's high-quality cover, this has become a nightmare for other teams. In addition to receiving the ball and shooting, Harris blocked the dry jumper shooting rate of 44%, three-point shooting rate? Or two points? It wasn't a problem for Harris at all.
Due to his strong projection ability, he often forced the opposing player to change defense mistakes, resulting in an empty position on the inside line or the weak side, and Harris was able to make a containment to help his teammates create scoring opportunities.
。 Although the arm span prevented him from being a top defender. But the tonnage, height and footwork allow him to face other defenders of the same level, and he does not suffer losses in confrontation. In addition, the team has super basket guards such as Allen and Jordan Jr., who can help them defend at any time. Thus: Harris' defense is not yet weak enough to be targeted by opponents.
。 Therefore, Harris is an important part of the team's tactical system.
Teams often put Harris in the bottom corner while the ball carrier breaks through at the top of the arc and contracts inside, so that not only does it have the opportunity to open a three-pointer, but also breaks through to create a foul. Attacking defenders like Irving and Dinwiddie can easily read the opponent's defense, and by breaking through and tearing the opponent's defense, they can also make Harris in the bottom corner deliver a fatal blow.
Of course, such a tactical position not only provides Harris with a three-point opportunity, but also accelerates the transfer of the ball, using the cover misalignment to play small, or hit the opponent in a position that is not timely. Another benefit of this offensive is:
Through the transfer of the ball and the running without the ball, the team enriched the offensive tactics, which made them more difficult to defend, and put a number of defenders on the field, in order to strengthen the control and transfer of the ball. The head coach can put forward the three-guard lineup of Irving, Dinwiddie and LeVert, the first two are efficient finishers, LeVert can also tear the opponent's defense; and after Durant's return, the team's attack will be simpler and more efficient.
After Irving and Durant both returned next season. In addition to Irving and Durant's two-man turn, Harris's empty cut, running position of the three points, the interior of Jordan Jr., Allen's defense and eating cake, Dinwiddie commanded the bench, the forward group has a good athletic ability.
Owen's No. 1 position, Durant's No. 3 position, as to whether the No. 2 position is Harris or Leville, this is a happy annoyance. Le Vere has a stronger ability to break through, has a better ability to run and jump, and is more suitable for playing the bench bandit, helping the team cut points on the bench;
Harris has stronger projection ability, more suitable for playing next to the superstar, when Irving and Durant attract the bag clip, they can distribute the ball to Harris on the outside line, allowing Harris to finish. When defenders are wary of the outside, Irving and Durant can break through and score points more easily.
When Harris is on the court with Irving and Durant, he can open up the space, allowing Irving and Durant to reduce the pinch, making the opponent lose one or the other. therefore:
Harris may not be destined to become a top scorer like Curry and Thompson, but Harris, who has experienced abandonment and injury, cherishes the opportunity to play more than anyone. From the second-round show, to the three-point king, to the backbone of the Nets, Harris is happy.
