On the stage of the finals, why did the Cavaliers only double-team Curry and not others? You are double-teamed, which means that double-teaming can restrict you. Why not double-team Durant? The fact is that the Cavaliers have double-teamed Durant, but very rarely, Durant basically chose to play fast. Whether to use double-teaming tactics and the choice of double-teaming objects depends on the opponent's lineup configuration and tactical play.
For example, because the Cavaliers have a stable 3-pointer ability except for Tristan, the Warriors rarely use double-teaming on defense (only when Irving breaks through the corner, he will double-team. Irving is tall and short, and plays the ball. Slow, it is basically impossible to pass Irving on the sideline and bottom corner). Because the Warriors have players such as Green, Iguodala, Zazapachulia, etc., they will always maintain two 3-point instability points on the field, or even no 3-point ability. This is the basis for the Cavaliers to adopt double-team tactics. . If Green is a marksman like Love, Taren Lu would not double-team.
There are so many double-teams for Curry, because Curry is the Warriors' core guard, the most offensive player with the ball, and the tactical starting point . The Cavaliers double-teaming is high-position double-teaming, and even double-teaming just after halftime, forcing Curry to play the ball, and would rather change the frontcourt to 4 to 3, but also to separate Curry from the Warriors' offensive system. This is the Cavaliers' affirmation of Curry's ability. And because Durant is the end point, has less time holding the ball, and usually does not do the work of dribbling the ball over the half, there is no chance to double-team.
As for some people think that Durant and James are rarely double-teamed because of their high height. It is even more unreasonable. It is true that short height is not conducive to double-teaming, but this happens mostly when breaking through. The goal of double-teaming on the sideline and bottom corner is to prevent you from playing the ball and forcing you to make mistakes. In the playoffs, the Cavaliers have a significant effect on Thomas Jr., but the Cavaliers did not double-team Curry. In fact, Curry seldom likes to walk on both sides like Thomas Jr. and break from the bottom line. Curry plays off the ball on the sideline and bottom corner, and breaks through the middle. The Cavaliers double-teamed Curry is double-teaming, arc-top double-teaming, and even double-teaming just after halftime. In this case, the passing space is much larger. The purpose is to force you to play the ball and not let you participate in the attack. People double-team James because the Cavaliers have three marksmen on the court, and one inside is standing at the basket with strong finishing ability. No one doubles Durant like this because Durant is not a point guard or a playmaker, and he rarely dribbles through halftime. When he gets the ball, his teammates have basically opened up space for him.
So, is the double-teamed Curry really restricted? Anyone who has watched the game knows it.
If Kobe gave Gasol in those two years, and even Jordan gave Pippen a few, this would greatly weaken their status. Curry's reputation was severely divided because it was not embarrassing or embarrassing. The regular season playoffs are equivalent to mock exams, and the finals are equivalent to college entrance examinations. Although there are only a few short games, it is a final conclusion, and its significance is unparalleled. As the boss, he was not the most valuable player after winning the championship. In fact, the problem is not that fmvp is not working, but that Iguodala's should belong to Curry. Players like Curry didn't win three championships in their peak season without fmvp. This is an unusual paradox in NBA history. Of course, it also has something to do with Durant halfway through. This guy is too exaggerated.
Of course, Durant's two are indeed well-deserved, and Iguodala feels very controversial. In terms of scoring and assists, Brother Yi is weaker than Curry, and his rebounding is a few points higher, which can be ignored. In terms of shooting rate, the first brother has a 50+40 shooting rate, and Curry has a 44+38 shooting rate. The gap is not big. However, you should know that almost all the players in the library are double-teams, and the first brother is attracted by the splash. In the future, almost all shots with large open positions, such shots, the hit rate is really not high. Let’s talk about the reasons given by most people at the end. One brother restricted James. James averaged 36+13+8 per game, and his shooting percentage was not high. I personally think that when the Cavaliers only have James, even if the wheels fight against James, James The efficiency will not be too high, so this limit James is really far-fetched.
