vs. the Suns at home, Philadelphia 76ers lost 113 to 116, suffering a two-game losing streak.
In this game, you can't say that the 76ers didn't play well, because their team shot 51.2+50% of the shots, and at the same time, Embiid also scored 38 points and 17 rebounds. With two doubles, the competitive state of all members is on the level. The reason for
's loss can only be said that the absence of Simmons and Harris has had too much impact on the team's tactical layout.
It can even be said that the presence or absence of Harris will now greatly affect the direction of the 76ers' record.
Let's take a look at some of Harris' stats this season.
averaged 20.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game. The shooting/three-point shooting percentage was 52/41%, and the free throw percentage was 89%. It was infinitely close to 180 club members, and the efficiency was very high. The offensive efficiency of
113.5 ranks 91st in the league, and the defensive efficiency is 106.2, which ranks 42nd in the league.
Breaking the impression flow, Harris' performance this year can't really be called a 'junk contract'. On the contrary, he has also grown into one of the best offensive and defensive forwards in the league.
html The 176ers' record this season has been consistently ranked first in the Eastern Conference. In addition to the MVP-level performance of the Great Emperor, it is also inseparable from Harris' recovery. This is due to Rivers' training. Teacher, it is not the same as old Brown.
In addition to bringing the instruction manual, Rivers also did a crazy experiment within the 76ers: reduced Simmons' possession and increased Harris' importance in the system. According to
NBA official website data, Harris averaged only 60.7 touches per game last season, and this year it has increased to 65.3 times.
And Simmons' average touches per game have weakened from 90.5 to 85.2.
In the past few seasons, when Simmons was mentioned, the first reaction of fans was often the '76ers perimeter core' tag, but now this tag has been transferred to Harris.
Although the average number of touches per game is much higher than that of Harris, this is based on his situation as a point guard, including a lot of useless ball power when advancing in the backcourt, which is used for personal use. In terms of rate, the usage rate of Harris is 23.9%, which is actually higher than the 20.9% of Western Emperor.
This 76ers team, Harris is the real core of the outside line, similar to the role of Pierce in the Celtics.
And Simmons is just a tactical execution point, similar to Rondo's dealer role.
Therefore, although Rivers has had the experience of being overturned from a 3-1 lead many times, as a coach who has won a championship, he must have a few brushes.
Under his training, in addition to the improvement of basic data, Harris has also made a qualitative leap in various advanced data this season.
3.6 ows value, 6.2 Ws victory value, 3.2 OBPM value, 4.1 BPM value, 2.5 VORP value are all beating West Di and ranking second in the team, second only to Embiid.
htmlIn the anxious moments of the 176-man game, Harris was often in possession of the ball for singles, such as the mid-range shot that beat the Lakers at the beginning of the season.
In the current Philadelphia team, Simmons organizes, Curry opens up space, Green 3D, Harris plays the role of Pierce, the great inside pillar, and the division of labor is very clear.
While the outside world has been touting the Nets, really don't forget the existence of this 76ers team, they feel they have the strength to win the championship.
