Based on last year’s data from the Lakers, Danny Green is just a slightly higher player than a qualified starter. (This season in Philadelphia, he once again proved himself as a good starter). There were a lot of them. The Lakers fans saw him not pleasing to their eyes. After all, he took a lot of shots and made the easiest open corner three-pointers. The efficiency was still so low. There were also many defensive games that were blown up, and he was also ranked first in the team at the time. Three high salaries-15 million US dollars, no matter how inappropriate it is.
But in fact, Danny Green will be favored by the coach in every team, and always get some positive comments from the critics. So no matter what we think as fans, at least in this NBA world, Danny Green is a very trustworthy player. His three championship experiences are not accidental. He is an important championship puzzle. So counting Danny Green, what are the outstanding championship puzzles in the NBA today?
Jeff Green
In recent seasons, Jeff Green has been tossing between teams and living on a veteran basic salary contract. For most teams, he is just an option. There are dispensable older strikers, don't expect him to make offensive contributions, as long as he can eat up that part of his playing time. At the Brooklyn Nets, Jeff Green played a season that reversed the wind. With his performance this year, he won a two-year contract of 9 million US dollars for himself. I really feel that he is sincere. Happy.
He has an excellent height-6 feet 8 inches, coupled with excellent athletic ability, so that he can swing from the front line to the inside, this is for the team including the Nets who are aiming to win the championship. It’s very important. Which championship team hasn’t had a small ball center this year? And this small ball center's three-point shooting is so good.
PJ-Tucker
Pat Riley praised PJ-Tucker in the Miami Heat’s media days: "He is a perfect complement to the team,He can bring shooting ability. The most important thing is that he has outstanding perimeter defensive ability. We are a team built on defense. We like comprehensive players on the defensive end. This will help us to win. "
and the Bucks who lost Tucker have not reduced their memory of Tucker. " Alphabet Brother" made many jokes about Tucker at the press conference, hopefully He can come back (although it is impossible). From these aspects, we can see the importance of Tucker to a team. Although the veteran's offensive data is very mediocre, he has a full sense of presence on the court. Among the players in the playoffs, Tucker ranked third in the number of scrambles, eighth in the number of interference two-pointers, tied for twelfth in the number of blocked rebounds, and ninth in the number of interference shots. It can be said that he is too important for a team that is aspiring to compete for the championship.
Jay Crowder
Last year’s Miami Heat in order to maintain salary flexibility in the next off-season, And chose to let go of Jay Crowder, Crowder is a major contributor to the Heat's playoffs, and made great contributions to the Heat's way to the finals, but the Heat are unwilling to give Crowder. A multi-year guaranteed contract. After a year, the Heat’s choice really lost his wife and lost troops.
This year, he played 42 games in the regular season and averaged. Contributed 10.1 points and 4.7 rebounds, the three-point shooting percentage reached 38.9%, and the playoffs reached about 40%. Various data also proved that he is the most suitable power forward candidate for the Suns. In the past two years, he has scored consecutively. In the finals and played as a starter in every game of the playoffs. Although he is not the absolute core of the team, it is difficult to deny his contribution to the team.
Robert Covington_ span2span
Covington is the kind of player who can be in the right place at the right time-especially on the defensive end.In the previous season when he came to the Trail Blazers, his total number of interceptions ranked first, and the number of defensive return possessions ranked 13th, which to a certain extent shows his defensive ability.
He certainly has one of the most basic abilities of today's top defenders-defending multi-position players. He can be a sweeper, he can also be a heavy forward defender, and he even played the role of a center in the Rockets. (Although he was only in his early 2 meters, but at the end of the regular season to join the Rockets, he was able to contribute nearly 2 blocked shots per game) After the break, the Los Angeles Lakers traded away one of their important championship puzzles-Danny Green, who also played a very good performance in Philadelphia. When playing for the Lakers, his three-point percentage dropped to 35%, and in Philadelphia it came to more than 40%. His true plus/minus value is second only to Embiid in the team.
Green is also one of the few players who can play for a long time and can defend multiple positions. His defensive significance is significant. In addition, his cooperation with Embiid is also very good. Last season, Green led the league in three-pointers per game. He shot 43.9% from the two corners. Especially when he and Embiid are on one side, and the latter is double-teamed, he is a good choice for Embiid.
