is now in the small ball era, due to the five-minute success of the Warriors at that time, plus the prevalence of three-pointers. Many teams are emulating their own small lineups, which also makes many players' own stars and positions become more abundant. But the small lineup has certain requirements, especially the selection of center forwards is even more important. There are three teams in the active league because it is difficult to put up a small lineup due to their own lineups. One big and four small may be their kingly way.
First team: 76ers
The 76ers have , Embiid and Zhuang Shen. Embiid has excellent offensive ability and solid footwork inside. As the best center in the league, he is the 76ers. Absolute core, so the 76ers must always use Embiid as the team's first core. Embiid's defensive ability in the interior is still passable. After all, the height and strength are outstanding, but the defensive ability is poor, and the defensive end is lacking in movement speed and agility, which will become the target of the opponent's attack. Although Xinyuan Zhuangshen has excellent pie-eating ability and rebounding ability, but the defensive end is too heavy and almost abandoned at critical moments of the game. The 76ers themselves do not have a pure point guard, Simmons will be hit by the shark slashing tactics when they appear on the field, and they will also have a serious offseason with the team in a little offseason. If you want to use a small lineup, there is no good match plan. The 76ers need to face reality.
The second team: Jazz
The Jazz have always been a major and four minors, two guards outside, two strikers, Gobel sits inside. Gobert's ability to guard the penalty area is excellent, but it is precisely because he is the defensive core of the Jazz. Once a small lineup is formed, Gobert must be abandoned, and without Gobert, the inside defense will become empty. The new aid Dabai has almost the same attributes as Gobert, and the only possibility is to let Pascal replace the center. Although he is young and strong, he is short in height and has poor offensive and defensive abilities. The Jazz still rely on pick-and-rolls or running off the ball to complete the finish. With Gobert's top-level inside guard, you need to make good use of it. In fact, combo guards like Mitchell will play a bigger role in small lineups.The Jazz may wish to consider the adjustment of the team's lineup. Gobert is excellent, but it does not improve the actual strength of the team. If you want the team to have a qualitative change, you must keep up with the trend. A small lineup may make . Ingles and Bogdanovic played higher.
The third team: Bulls
First of all, the Bulls are very successful in signings during the offseason. They have introduced , Bauer, 6span, DeRozan Caruso, the back line has been well supplemented. preseason Bulls have been using a large and four small lineups, Vucevic as the center, outside equipped with Ball, DeRozan, Lavin , Green. The only drawback of the Bulls is that they don't have a good forward. Both Johnsons are useless. Jones Jr. is more suitable for the 3 position. There is no offensive and defensive balanced all-around striker, so the Bulls have to let Green and DeRozan partner with the striker. In fact, this set of large and four small lineups are relatively vague except for the center, and they are almost all adjusted appropriately according to the opponent. This year's Bulls guard line is a bit overcrowded. Several cores can improve the team's strength. Players like Brown Dotson can try to trade. The league is an era where small forwards are popular, especially small forwards can still be placed in the 4th position. How can the team go further without a high-quality forward?
