——19-20 season.
During the regular season, Pope averaged 9.3 points and 1.3 of 3.5 three-pointers and 1.3 of 3.5 shots, with a shooting percentage of 38.5%;
During the playoffs, Pope averaged 10.7 points and 2.1 of 5.7 shots, with a shooting percentage of 37.8%;
Judging from the data, compared with the regular season, Pope's efficiency has not decreased but increased in the playoffs.
Take three points as an example.
—Different ending methods.
① Three-point shooting percentage after holding the ball was 32.3%;
② Three-point shooting percentage after not having the ball was 39.0%;
—different defensive intensity.
① Defensive players have a three-point shooting percentage of 36.0% within 4 feet;
② Defensive players have a three-point shooting percentage of 41.1% outside 6 feet;
From the above two methods, in addition to holding the ball and holding the three-pointer, no matter how far the defensive players are, as long as the three-pointer chance is comes out, Pope can effectively grasp it.
defensive end, under Pope's counter defense, the opponent's three-pointers and shooting percentages of more than 15 feet can be suppressed at 33.8% and 39.1%.
See two examples:
—Jamar Murray .
Pope and his counterparts were 25 minutes and 26 seconds, limiting his 11 shots to score 12 points.
— James Harden .
Pope and his counterparts were 12 minutes and 01 seconds, limiting his 3 of 12 shots to score 9 points.
From the example, Pope mainly guards the opponent's arrow characters, but even so, it has a good defensive effect on the positioning.
Based on this, in the Lakers season, I even think Pope has made no less credit to winning the championship than Rondo. To put it more, Rondo's average of 8.9 points and 6.6 assists, of which the assists are tied for the seventh place in the league with Murray ( playoffs totaling 217 players ).
has three-pointers and defense. Although Pope, who tends to have 3D attributes, does not show off, its effect on the Lakers is almost incalculable. However, I didn’t expect that the Lakers used such high-quality players to exchange for the Westbrook , which was already on the decline.
Just say something about Westbrook.
21-22 season's irreplaceable value is 0.2, which is a new low in his career, and is even worse than 0.7 in his rookie season. It is also the first time since his rookie season that it is below 2.0.
irreplaceable value, simply put it, it means the player's influence on the team's offense. The greater the value, the greater the influence . From this perspective, Westbrook has little impact on the Lakers' offense. In other words, to a certain extent, it can be understood as the Lakers' offensive end 4-to-5.
However, as time went by, Nunn returned from injury and scored 20+ consecutively in the match against Suns and Warriors.
data is good, and what is more important is the offensive ability shown - can not only break through the tough situation, but also play pick-and-roll with teammates.
In fact, although he was a undrafted, Nunn has shown good ball-holding and offensive ability since joining NBA.
with the power of holding the ball.
——19-20 season.
When the ball pick-and-roll accounts for 33.7% of the individual offensive rounds, it scores 0.92 points per round, which is better than 68.8% of the league's players.
——20-21 season.
When the ball pick-and-roll accounts for 27.2% of the individual offensive rounds, it scores 0.91 points per round, which is better than 62.3% of the league's players.
Judging from the split data, the ball-holding pick-and-roll accounts for a huge proportion of Nunn's personal offense and is very efficient.
For Hydrange eyebrow , this can be picked and rolled with it.
Taking the 21-22 season as an example, Davis has taken the lead and roll and shots through pick-and-roll or outside splitting.
To put it more, unlike Westbrook's lack of shooting threats, when Nunn has mid- and long shots that can attract defense, the pick-and-roll can give Thick Brow more opportunities for one-on-one and misalignment. Obviously, this helps improve the latter's offensive efficiency.
In addition, Nunn can also effectively ensure the team's second team's offense when he has a certain ability to finish the ball.
I mean: advance, you can end the attack by holding the ball; retreat, you can play pick-and-roll with your teammates, and create scoring opportunities for your teammates through their own offensive threats.
Based on this, in my opinion, Nunn is a pop-up version.
First of all, both of them have relatively distinct characteristics - Pope is 3D, and Nunn is good at playing the ball.
Secondly, both of them can bring substantial help to their teammates and the team when they have a certain amount of combat power.
Therefore, Nunn is like Pope, with distinctive characteristics to contribute to the team.
Finally, considering Nun's 1-year expiration contract of 5.3 million, it can be said that the cost-effectiveness is still very high. Of course, this expiration contract also helps Nunn play hard, and compared the data needed to get a new contract in the year of the contract.
