Chapter 520: The Efficiency of Several Major Tactics
If other three-point shooters take three-point shooters to a certain height, then Curry is the only player who takes three-point shots to a higher level, relying on the outside Warriors to win a sub-championship, and no one will question the Warriors and Curry. How strong are Curry's threes? He hit 1 three-pointer in a single game, 40 three-pointers in a single season, and a three-point shooting rate of more than 40% in 8 seasons in his career. In less than nine seasons, Curry has made 1,964 three-pointers on 4.7 percent shooting, and it's only a matter of time before he breaks Ray Allen's record in the future.
In the classics, the phrase "eighteen kinds of martial arts are proficient" is often quoted, however, in the field of basketball, it is emphasized that there is a specialization in the art industry, and the NBA has many offensive methods, but it can be roughly classified into the following five types - pulling singles, offensive and defensive conversion, blocking, low post back and mobile offense, the American media "Grandstand Newspaper" according to the data of the 014-15 season, predicted the team with the highest efficiency in the 017-18 season, it is worth mentioning that these five ways are shared by five teams, Which offensive weapon will win the championship? ——
1. Pull away the singles
Last season, there were two teams that were the most dangerous singles teams, as you can see in the chart, the Clippers and Cavaliers have left the other 8 teams in terms of singles scoring data per round, both teams are star-studded, so it is not surprising that the strongest singles team was produced before them, the Clippers have the league's No. 1 point guard Paul, who can penetrate any defense, and Crawford and Griffin are also singles masters, especially Crawford, who is known as the "singles god", is fantastic in this data, More than 9.1% of players in the league score points per round alone.
However, in comparison, the Cavaliers are clearly the best singles team in the league, and while they are slightly inferior to the Clippers in terms of individual efficiency, Cleveland has the most singles in the league, while the Clippers can only rank 16th in this statistic. Although Cavaliers coach David Blatter has always emphasized a team offense where happiness is paramount, with LeBron James (a player who scores more than 75% of his games per game) and Irving (a player who scores more than 94.9% of his goals per game), he will inevitably need to cater to superstars and let them beat defenders with their individual ability.
While Irving still has room for improvement defensively, he is already at the top level when it comes to dribbling, and few players in the league can dribble and turn defenders around like Irving.
It looks like the Cavaliers' "singles system" will continue to flourish next season, and in last season's Eastern Conference Finals against the Hawks, LeBron James also gave his opinion on this aspect: "We had too many one-on-one singles in the fourth quarter, and I wanted to run out of offensive time, and at the end of the day, I had only two options, one was to shoot myself and the other was to pass to my teammates, but the end result was that they either couldn't shoot or made mistakes. ”
Obviously, James also has a dislike for singles, but he can't help it, so while the Cavaliers will still be the number one singles team next season, at least when the stars have the ball in their hands, the offense is no worse than the role players.
, offensive and defensive conversion
In the transition between offense and defense, the most common thing to see is a fast-break dunk, but the Warriors have found a new way - they like to complete three-point shooting in the fast-break, and while the Warriors' fast-break dunks are also uncommon, the three-point shot can make their scoreboard jump faster.
However, the Clippers have made a more impressive impression on this offensive approach, ranking first in points scored per game, and while Houston has the highest number of transitions, Harden and his team have not been efficient in terms of open positions.
In the 016-17 season, the Warriors' offensive and defensive transitions will still be hearty, but the Clippers, who have added more pieces to the puzzle this summer, have the ability to rise to the throne in this category, Griffin only played 67 games last season due to injury, as long as he stays on the court, the Clippers can become an empty city, and Paul can use his passing ability to fuel Jordan Jr. and make the Clippers a spaceship.
Of course, the Clippers don't just rely on the Big Three for their offensive and defensive transitions, and this summer they added Stephenson, who struggled with the Hornets last season because Charlotte stuck to a positional style of play, and their fast-break transition frequency ranked fourth in the league, leaving Stephenson's athletic talent out of the way. The same case goes for Josh Smith, who was in the Pistons with a curb in character.
With the addition of roster depth, the Clippers' offensive and defensive transitions will be more powerful, and at the very least, the team will be able to stay alive for 48 minutes without getting physically exhausted.
, blocking and dismantling
For the Clippers, Paul is the engine, Jordan Jr. and Griffin are the big killers who score under the basket, and the jump shooting ability of the Clippers point guard also adds a new dimension to the team's pick-and-roll.
And the Mavericks are also a team that relies on pick-and-roll, Brandon Wright (a player who scores more than 98.6% of pick-and-rolls per round), Bernard James (96.8%) and Stoudemire (8.%) are all good at using this method to make a fuss, and the old Chandler is one of the best pick-and-roll players in the league, 1.5% of his offense comes from pick-and-rolls, and Chandler is more than 97.7% of players in pick-and-roll points per round, although Nowitzki is not so efficient in this statistic. But his jumper after the disassembly can still cause damage to opponents.
Although the Clippers and Mavericks are the most popular pick-and-roll teams, a dark horse may stand out in the 015-16 season, although Magic coach Skels is not a coach who is good at pick-and-roll, but the talent of this team's roster dictates that they are the most suitable team in the league to complete this offensive style, and last season, the Magic had the highest pick-and-roll frequency in the league.
Tobias Harris has been a ball-handler for longer than in the past, and despite making a lot of mistakes in decision-making over the past season, he is still the number one ball-handler in the Magic's pick-and-roll strategy, which is precisely why the Magic need to tap into the pick-and-roll ability of the No. 1 position, and although Payton and Oladipo have exciting playmaking potential, neither of them was an effective offensive executor in the half-court offense last season, and Payton has begun to gradually show aggression under the basket in the second half of last season. Oladipo, on the other hand, needs to improve his game mentality.
'I made a lot of mistakes, it was too tough to play like this, and I needed to make it easier. Oladipo said in an interview last season.

The Magic are trying to become a playoff team, and if Oladipo can play an easy game, the Magic's shooting efficiency will hopefully improve even further, and overtaking the Clippers will be a challenge. (To be continued)
