King James successor is overrated? Many famous speakers criticized him for not defending, and Pelinka is unwilling to give him a first-round signing
On May 4, today is the tiebreak between the Nuggets and the Clippers. When writing this article, the game has not started yet. The teams with home advantage in NBA history have a tiebreak of 112 wins and 39 losses. It can be said that the Nuggets have a great advantage, and the Clippers are not weak. Ballmer chartered a plane to send 100 Clippers loyalists to the Nuggets at home to form a fan wall to cheer, and Tyron Lue's tiebreak in coaching career has 4 wins and 0 losses, and there are still some games.
This game is crucial for both sides. If anyone loses and is eliminated, there is a high probability that players will change in the offseason. If the Nuggets are eliminated and they want to appease Jokic, the core framework will be changed. The team will introduce better players. If the Clippers lose, they should consider whether to introduce more suitable stars. Their defensive system is good, but the dual-core performance is lacking in stability from the first-tier stars.
In contrast, although the Lakers were eliminated early this season, they seemed to have achieved satisfactory results. After all, after the team won James' retirement, Doncic, the team's appearance for at least 10 years, has led the Lakers to the top three in the Western Conference after Doncic joined this season. Although he was eliminated in the playoffs, this is not Luca's problem. The main reason is that the team does not have a center. Doncic averages 30.2 points, 7 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1 steal in the playoffs.
This is still a share of his ball rights with Reeves, otherwise Doncic's data will be better. Fans who often pay attention to Doncic should be able to find that although Doncic will have poor efficiency due to slack play in the regular season, in the playoffs, his singles are really stable, he plays more focused, and he will play targeted offenses, and his top shots are also extremely efficient. After all, he has been selected for the first time for five consecutive years, and many fans also regard him as one of the future facades.
However, Doncic has a bad reputation among many celebrities. Recently, the famous artist Perkins criticized Doncic when he was a guest on a show. He said: Doncic is the worst defense superstar I have ever seen in modern basketball history. Even Smith couldn't listen to this sentence, and he said: You can express it in a more tactful way. He has always been a sarcastic tongue, but he persuaded Perkins to show mercy.
Former All-Star point guard Teag, he talked about Doncic when he participated in a podcast recently. He said: I said that Tatum is a better star than Doncic. If it were me, I would not trade Tatum for Luca. Luca is not defensive at all. No matter what game or when, I would put Tatum in front of Doncic. Now Edwards is in front of him. Is Doncic the most overrated star in the current service? I don’t know whether
is the most overrated star in the current service, but one thing that is certain is that he does have very little influence on the defensive end and even does not defend often. Although his defensive attitude has changed a lot after joining the Lakers, he is not a qualified defender, which is an indisputable fact. Doncic's defense is not good. I think the main problem lies in two aspects. One is his defensive attitude, and the other is talent.
Although he is a Tanhua Show, his horizontal movement speed is very slow. Sometimes it is not that he doesn't want to defend, but that he really can't defend. Edwards can easily pass him. This is a talent flaw that cannot be compensated. If a star cannot set an example on the defensive end, it will indeed affect the mentality of other players on the defensive end. Perhaps the successor the Lakers are looking for is not as outstanding as James of the same period.
When you see this, you may understand why the Mavericks traded him. Harrison's philosophy is to win the championship with defense. Although trading Doncic is considered a stupid operation, Doncic does not conform to his winning philosophy. After the Lakers got Doncic's trade, they did not do their best for Doncic. The Lakers had the chance to win the championship before, and if they win him, the Lakers would definitely have a chance to win the championship.
But Pelinka gave up the transaction, and the reason given was that it was not healthy enough, but to be honest, the reason was far-fetched. The reason given by the US media before was that Pelinka was afraid that he would not be able to renew his contract during the offseason. They did not want to waste their first round picks. Perhaps this is the purpose. A star, the team general manager is not even willing to bet on him. Perhaps Doncic has not yet reached the height of making Pelinka willing to give everything, which is much worse than when James joined.
However, if Doncic is willing to renew his contract, then Pelinka will likely trade his first round to exchange for a suitable inside player and Doncic partner. Doncic has poor defense ability and cannot make up for his talent, but they can make up for Doncic's defensive shortcomings by introducing suitable puzzles, just like the Mavericks formed a one-star four-defense around King No. 1. Having said that, what do you want to say about the current Lakers? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
