The super-evolving literary class is destined not to be Duncan of the "old era", but Duncan of the new era!

How to evaluate the performance of the second season of the Wenban class?

In my standards, the Wenban class in the second season is super-evolving, but not in data, but in technical content and competition content. The Wenban class that reshaped its own technical content and competition content in the second season is already evolving towards the game logic that can win!

Simply put, after reshaping its technical content and competition content in the second season of the Wenban, not only did not feel discomfort, but also showed considerable improvement.

Let's start with the intuitive data

(1) The average shooting and shooting percentage of each region in the 2023-2025 season are as shown in the figure below.

Summary: In the second season, while maintaining the shooting and hit rate of medium and short distances (<10ft), the shooting and hit rate of medium and long distances (>10ft).

(2) The proportion of attacks and attacks in different ending methods of the 2023-2025 season

Overall, the shootings and attacks per 100 rounds account for the following

Summary: In the second season, the proportion of ball holding was appropriately reduced, while significantly increased the proportion of ball without the ball.

Specific different types of shots and shots per 100 rounds account for the following

Summary: In the second season of the Wenban, the ending method of significantly increasing the proportion of no-ball is fixed-point shots, and a small number of them are pick-and-roll catches.

Combined with the changes in the field performance and data end, Wenban's second season technically developed himself into a super all-round player from the basket to the three-point line without blind spots. It is true that the 2-point shooting percentage of the mid-range and long-range shooting with a little over 40% is not efficient.

(3) Did the second season of Wenban just become more versatile?

To answer this question, we need to talk about the changes in the NBA over the past 30 years. The following is my brief understanding of a non-professional person. If there is anything wrong, please correct me.

If the Spurs are used as the time coordinates, then 99-01, 03-05, and 12-14 are probably several more obvious time nodes. Before and after these rough time nodes, the overall technical content and game content of the NBA have obvious different views.

My personal summary is: in the past three decades, NBA teams have generally evolved from the absolute weight of 1-2 cores to the absolute weight of 1-2 cores today + other players complement each other. Below these evolutions are the elements of three-pointers, space, projection, compatibility, and game round count.

Watch the game before 99-01, the overall NBA game content is initiated by a large number of direct tactics from 1-2 core players on the court → create opportunities (end yourself or create opportunities for teammates). Other role players only need to do simple work according to the team's needs. At that time, the Spurs and OK Lakers were typical representatives.

However, in the content of NBA games, the absolute ability of core stars in a certain event has been relatively reduced, but the requirements for core stars compatibility are far higher than that of more than ten or twenty years ago. This is why Malone asked Fatty to pass more and be able to keep three-pointers. Kidd practiced his letters in the way of holding the ball and shooting in the middle... The typical representative here is the 14 Spurs, and later the Warriors, Celtics, Nuggets, Heat, Bucks, Pacers, and Thunder. These teams actually showed this characteristic to a large extent.

This means that the core of the NBA team today is that you can directly initiate without tactics during certain periods, but you must be compatible with other players and must be able to contribute to the game in other ways.

This is the logic of team building for NBA teams today, so in my standards, the literary class in the second season has completed super evolution. This super evolution is that after he reshapes his technical content and game content, he already has the game logic of the core of team building in the modern NBA for a long time, while the literary class in the first season does not have this logic.

As long as you continue to practice along this path and improve all skills, what will be placed in the future of the literary class and the Spurs in the future?

is a theoretically compatible with any type of insider. Because of such a essay, it is destined that the Spurs' adaptability requirements for other players in the future will be relatively reduced, that is, the cost of team building is relatively low.

(4) Cornet & Another significance of Olynick's arrival

This extends another question, that is, the significance of the arrival of Cornet and Olynick. It is true that their primary task is to supplement the combat power of the substitute lineup, but in my opinion, the reason why Wright introduced two players with completely different styles, Connet and Olynick, is a great strategic significance for the team building, and is a preview of the future team building lineup.

This is exactly what I expect from the Wenshi class next season, not from the data level, not from the best lineup and other honorary level, but from the Wenshi class only needs to prove one thing next season, which is a hugely successful season for me.

The thing is that Wen Banjin can play inside, and is well compatible with inside lines like Olynik who deals with cards at high positions, supports organizations, and three-point shooting; Wen Banguo can play outside, and is well compatible with inside lines like Kennett who can squat pit guards, grab boards, and catch balls and eat cakes.

If Wenban can prove this to us next season, then imagine whether the Spurs' future team building cost will be much simpler..

Fortunately, there is still an outside version of Castle in the Spurs. As long as Castle increases three-pointers to 35% + middle-class level in the next 1-2 years (note that it is not optimistic about Castle, nor does it mean to look down on Castle, and only makes an assumption), under the team structure of Castle + Wenban (not that Wenban needs to reach the historical level offense and Castle must reach the best lineup level strength)?

Fox/Harper is good at breaking through (even if the three-pointers are unstable), so just let you break through; Cornet (or a future player) is good at eating cakes, can top and grab boards, so just let you squat at the basket; Olynick (or a future player) is good at high-level support and three-point shooting, so just let you perform at high-level......

This is not about Cornet/Oly The Nick will have to be bound to the literary team, but in the effective playing time sample, if the literary team can prove what I said next season + Castle can increase the three-pointer to 35% + the middle class level in the next one or two seasons, then for the Spurs, the requirements for adaptability of other players in the future and the cost of team building in the future will be relatively much simpler, which ensures that the Spurs can build a long-term and stable and competitive lineup.

(5) Summary

The first season of the Wenban relies on his talent to play free basketball, and the old man did not make too many plans for the Wenban. It turns out that the logic of the game cannot win more goals. In the second season of the Wenban, except for the adaptation period of seven or eight games before the game + the later game that the Spurs were still able to chase the playoffs in November and December, the Wenban was undoubtedly the biggest contributor, and this was because the Wenban reshaped his skills in just half a season. The content and game content thus establish the game logic that can win more balls. The logic is: no matter where you are in the tactical initiation, tactical participation, and tactical ending, or you do not directly participate in the tactics, as the shooting point, empty cut point, secondary offense point, retreat point... No matter where you are, you can contribute to the team's victory, in this era, the game logic that can win as the core of the inside line has existed, and the logic that can build a team for a long time is existed.

In my standards, this is the super evolution of the second season of the Wenban class. Of course, when the Wenban class in some positions is not efficient enough and the offensive skills are not improved enough, but the Wenban class has proved in only half a season that he can do it, which is enough. The rest is left to time to slowly improve its skills and to the management to build a better team!
