The problem of the back line is solved, and all that's left is the forward line.
This is the most critical position!
The Warriors' biggest enemies in the new season are the Heat, Bulls and Mavericks. Against these three teams, they all need strong strikers.
Especially a good defensive striker!
A good striker can switch between guard and center, but not the other way around!
Due to the emergence of the Warriors, the league will definitely develop more and more in the direction of small ball.
The most valuable thing in the small ball era is the striker!
He can be three or four, and can even play the fifth position in a small ball lineup. It is best to have a three-point shot, and it would be even better if he also has the ability to attack independently!
For example, a player like Shane Battier!
Or Klay Thompson, Iguodala and Draymond Green in later generations!
This is very crucial for the Warriors in the new season.
If nothing else, once they face the Heat, what the Warriors need most is this kind of striker.
How to guard against James?
How to limit Wade?
What if Bosh pulls out and shoots a three-pointer?
The best solution is to have three Shanes!
Or Klay Thompson, Iguodala and Draymond Green!
But this is impossible.
Battier can't move, Klay and Green haven't even entered the NBA yet!
As for the 76ers' first brother, he will lead the team to the playoffs next season and the following season.
What's more, the current No. 1 brother is still the boss of the 76ers.
No matter what, Yi Ge cannot move.
Besides, the current No. 1 brother has great potential, and the 76ers will not trade him.
Unless the Warriors trade Curry...
Although such players are hard to find, Deng Fang is not worried.
Because Deng Fang already had a goal.
The first one is Kirilenko!
Yes, Kirilenko of the Jazz!
Kirilenko is a very good all-around player.
In the 1999 draft, with the 24th pick in the first round, the Utah Jazz selected Andrei Kirilenko from Russia.
Kirilenko was born in 1981 and is 29 years old this year. He is of the age to be a player. He is 2.06 meters tall, weighs 99 kilograms, has a wingspan of 2.26 meters, and has extremely excellent physical fitness.
Kirilenko officially landed in the NBA in the 2001-02 season. His nickname is "AK-47", which is derived from his initials AK and his jersey number 47, and Kirilenko's hometown
It also happens to be the birthplace of the AK47 gun.
AK-47 is famous for its low cost, easy assembly and huge lethality, and Kirilenko is the same.
Kirilenko is characterized by versatility, three-pointers, rebounds, blocks, steals, and assists. He is almost everywhere on the court.
There are many players who have played from the one to the five position, such as James, Durant, and later Draymond Green, Antetokounmpo, and retired Magic Johnson, Garnett and others, but it is really possible to move from the one position to the fifth position.
There is only one person who can defend the fifth position, and that is Andrei Kirilenko!
Many people say: The most affordable triple-double in the league is Kidd, the most luxurious triple-double is James, the most likely to achieve a quadruple-double is Garnett, and the most likely to achieve a fifth-double is Kirilenko.
In the 2004-05 season, Kirilenko averaged 15.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.6 steals and 3.3 blocks per game. Among them, 3.3 blocks per game made him the only non-insider in NBA history.
Player's shot-blocking leader.
On January 1, 2006, Kirilenko scored 14 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists, 6 steals, and 7 blocks in a game against the Lakers!
Kirilenko also became the only player in NBA history to score 5 6s in 48 minutes!
In this game, in the last minute and a half of the first quarter, Kirilenko blocked four of Kobe's shots in a row!
Kirilenko was the block leader in the 2004-05 season, averaging 3.32 blocks per game. His average blocks per game that year was the best in the world, followed by Mourning and Howard.
You must know that Kirilenko is not an inside player, he mainly plays outside!
The height of 2.06 meters and the wingspan of 2.21 meters give Kirilenko excellent hardware facilities, acceptable athletic ability, top judgment ability and defensive awareness, allowing Kirilenko to defend positions 2-4, even if
It’s okay to occasionally switch defenses at positions 1 and 5.
In short, Kirilenko is a good solo defender and a top help defender.
Kirilenko has been selected to the All-Defensive Team three times. Many commentators have said that there has never been an all-around defensive champion like Kirilenko in NBA history!
Many commentators' evaluation of Kirilenko is: the devil's terminator!
More importantly, Kirilenko can not only defend, he was also very comprehensive offensively in his peak period.
In four seasons, Kirilenko averaged 15 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks per game, and he could also shoot three-pointers.
Although the three-pointer is not very reliable, it can still be shot!
The most important thing is that Kirilenko has certain organizational and coordination capabilities!
What Deng Fang needs most is a role like Draymond Green in the future!
On the defensive end, he can wipe his teammates' butts, he can play center in smaller lineups, he can block opponents' layups at the basket, and he can switch to the perimeter.
On the offensive end, he can pick and roll with Curry. After the pick and roll, he has a three-point threat, he can score layups, and he can also serve as a setter and pass the ball to open teammates!
With such a teammate around, opponents won't dare to flank Curry unscrupulously!
Kirilenko is such a player!
Compared with Greenby, Kirilenko's ability to defend tall centers in the low post is much worse. It is also difficult to switch to the fast small man in the 1st position. In addition, his three-point shooting is not good.
However, Kirilenko also has his advantages. Due to his height and wingspan, Kirilenko is better at assisting in defense and blocking shots than Green. His blocking ability is unique in the world and is far from comparable to Green.
In addition, Kirilenko's offense with the ball is better than Green's, especially attacking the basket.
Green's independent offensive ability still has some problems.
Kirilenko has height and wingspan. It would be much easier for him to attack the basket with the ball than Green!
In general, Kirilenko is an outstanding and selfless team offensive player and all-rounder. Although Kirilenko at his peak cannot serve as the core of the team, he is definitely a high-quality or even top-level auxiliary player and is the best player for any team.
The team is at least something that every strong team needs.
If Kirilenko is placed at the fourth or third position, no matter if he is defending James alone, Wade or Bosh, it will be no problem!
If Kirilenko is asked to help defend from behind, it is estimated that the opponent will have to eat a lot of hotpot in every game!
Especially when playing small-ball lineups, Kirilenko's anticipatory defense and shot-blocking abilities are what the Warriors need most.
To put it bluntly, Kirilenko is a taller version of Iguodala with a slightly slower speed and stronger shot-blocking ability!
In short, Kirilenko is a very suitable player, and Deng Fang has long been interested in him.
