RoLo, Carmelo propel streaking #Knicks past Heat for third straight http://nyp.st/1TFHXcL The Knicks suddenly look like a different team since the Chicago beatdown, with the home-and-home sweep versus Atlanta and bottling up Miami, which never even made a run. Knicks coach Derek Fisher is calling the Bulls’ loss a potential “turning point.’’ He called his players out afterward, saying they all but quit on the game and staged a lengthy film session the following day. 尼克在上次被公牛慘電後像是任督二脉被打通一樣，先擊墜老鷹兩次，還在邁阿密滅火。 教練老漁說對公牛那場是個轉淚點，在那之後隊內開了一次會，並且在這些天裡不斷研究 影片。 “That was a very embarrassing loss for us,’’ Anthony said. “What [the streak] tells me is when we play the way we should be playing, we can beat any team that’s out there. We’re showing that the last few games.’’ 今天12投9中25分的某瓜表示: "喔...公牛那場的確是蠻尷尬的，我認為只要我們打得夠合理，我們有能力擊殺任何隊伍， 這就是我們這幾場比賽正在做的。" They jelled again in their sharp-looking triangle offense and a suddenly gritty defense that limited Dwyane Wade to 18 points after his hot first quarter. The Knicks led by double-digits most of the second half and never let Miami within seven. “I thought there was a level of composure and poise the guys showed, even when we had a bad possession’’ Fisher said. “We were intense, but there was a relaxed look as if we were in control of what we wanted to do.’’ 尼克重新打磨了他們的三角戰術，而且霎那間他們的防守變得很鐵血! 老漁:"我認為這就是我們的球員該有的水準，即使我們從有過很糟的體驗，我們曾經恐慌 過，但冷靜下來重新審視後，會發現如果我們能冷靜地控制場面，就能讓一切往我們想要的 去進行。" “I just thought he was patient,’’ Fisher said. “I think that’s something he’s worked really hard to develop as the season’s gone on. I think he can be efficient when he plays relaxed, poised and confident. That’s how he played tonight.’’ 老漁談瓜:"我認為他現在變得很有耐心，我認為他正在變得更好的球員，他能變得更有 影響力，當他打得很放鬆很有信心時，那就像今晚的他一樣。" “You always want to beat the winning team,’’ Lopez said. The Knicks kept pounding Lopez with passes in the post — a triangle staple that creates the spacing. “I was pretty comfortable out there,’’ Lopez said. “Guys are getting confidence in one another. It fosters a relaxed but intense style of play.’’ 肉配汁在低位大發神威! 肉配汁:"我現在覺得在那位子也挺舒服的，其他人現在也越打越有信心，這造就了我們現在 這緊張刺激又輕鬆的打法。" Miami coach Erik Spoelstra sensed this could be trouble despite easily handling the Knicks twice previously. “They didn’t even look like they were fazed by a good defensive team in the last two games,’’ Spoelstra said of the Knicks’ wins vs. Atlanta. “They look like a different team than when we last played them.’’ 熱火教練表示抗議 "他們去年兩場對我們時看起來防守沒這麼好啊，為什麼這次打我們就像不同的隊伍。" -------- From earlier: One Knick says of Carmelo: "It's just a natural progression of a person who is maturing."

He's at his best close to the rim According to the defensive tracking numbers provided by the NBA, Porzingis is a solid defender across the board. His size doesn't allow him to cover a lot of ground, but a formidable wingspan allows him to affect shooters if they're close by. But if you look at Diff%, an NBA stat showing how a defender's field goal percentage allowed differs from the shooter's overall percentage, you see where his defensive strengths lie. 基本上在籃框附近的他就是最棒的，根據數據顯示KP是非常好的防守者。 依照他的SIZE來看他沒辦法有大範圍的覆蓋面積，但那可怕的臂展讓他能更有效的影響進攻 者，如果我們去看 Diff%跟NBA的數據的話，你就會知道KP的防守有多好了。 DEFENSE, BY TYPE OF SHOT TYPE DFG% DIFF% Overall 42.2 -3.7 3-pointers 33.7 -1.3 2-pointers 44.4 -5.1 Less than 6 ft 47.7 -11.3 Less than 10 ft 45.2 -9.1 More than 15 ft 37.7 +0.4 That number within 6 feet of the basket looks to be the most impressive in terms of Diff%, but how good is it in a bigger context? He's actually one of the league's best in that regard, ranking in the top five. Here are your lowest Diff% totals within 6 feet of the hoop, the ultimate rim protectors. Surprised that the Knicks have two players in the top five despite their defensive struggles? As a team, New York's Diff% within 6 feet is minus-3.3%, tied with the Warriors for best in the NBA. KP最好的數據是能有效地守住防守距離籃框6呎內的進攻者，這到底算是多好的數據呢? 實際上這就是目前聯盟中最好的數據，至少是前五名的。 下面這個是距離籃框6尺內的最好的五個防守者，你們可以發現尼克就有兩名，儘管他們的 球隊在防守端上是有些掙扎。作為球隊，尼克在防守距離籃框6尺內的範圍是跟勇士並列 第一好的球隊。 圖在這--勇士有兩個，我們也有兩個(LOPEZ跟KP) http://assets.espn.go.com/i/infographics/20160106_porzingis/porzingis_bars2d. png Porzingis sits in the top 10 in blocks per game, so let's take a look at how well each of them affects the opponents' shooting percentage in close. As you'll see, Porzingis leads all the shot-blockers above him on this list: TOP 10, BLOCKS/GAME PLAYER BLKS/GM DIFF%, 6 FT Hassan Whiteside, MIA 4.0 -9.7 Anthony Davis, NO 2.6 -7.7 Rudy Gobert, UTAH 2.6 -9.6 Serge Ibaka, OKC 2.4 -6.8 Pau Gasol, CHI 2.3 -8.5 DeAndre Jordan, LAC 2.3 -6.1 Brook Lopez, BKN 2.0 -10.2 Kristaps Porzingis, NYK 1.9 -11.3 Karl-Anthony Towns, MIN 1.9 -7.1 Andrew Bogut, GS 1.8 -15.3 John Henson, MIL 1.8 -11.2 同時KP也是場均火鍋的前十名之一，上圖你能看到KP在保護籃框周邊的防守率只輸給BOGUT He challenges shooters, gets blocks in close So we know Porzingis makes his best defensive contributions close to the rim, but he doesn't just put up good analytics numbers in that area -- he also makes almost all of his blocks there. Courtesy of the fantastic shot tracker at NBAsavant.com, below are the locations of each blocked shot for Whiteside and Anthony Davis, ranked first and second in blocks per game this season, as compared to Porzingis. 現在我們知道KP在籃框周邊的防守貢獻有多棒，但她在這只有這位子可不是只有數據表現 不錯，他的火鍋大多來自這區域，來看看他跟白邊還有AD的火鍋分布圖。 白邊:http://0rz.tw/ouxAc 132鍋71鍋來自6呎內 54% AD:http://0rz.tw/KRSXY 78鍋38鍋來自6尺內 49% KP:http://0rz.tw/5zeEV 70鍋54鍋來自6尺內 77% Clearly, Whiteside and Davis are far more mobile, and that's reflected in where they block shots. Whiteside controls the paint all the way out to the key but also challenges shooters at the rim for many of his blocks. Davis is quick enough to get up against 3-point shooters, as evidenced by the five blocks beyond the 3-point arc (accounting for 6% of his blocked shots), but blocks a lower percentage close to the rim. Meanwhile, Porzingis is compiling a decent number of blocks while rarely making one beyond a few feet from the hoop. 很顯然的，白邊跟AD更具活動力，白邊掌控了整個禁區，同時也對籃框周邊有很好的保護 AD則是更常跑到外圍去堵三分射手，但也表示他對於籃框周邊的保護並不完善，而KP呢， 他完全就是集中於籃框周邊的區域。 Houston game was the turning point The Knicks played the Rockets on Nov. 21, and up to that point, Porzingis had registered no more than two blocks in any of his 13 NBA games. But on that night, he swatted seven Houston shots (to go with 24 points and 14 rebounds), and his defensive numbers have improved significantly since then. Maybe it gave him greater confidence, or maybe offensive players have been coming at him more frequently and allowing him more chances to make defensive stops and blocks. Or perhaps Derek Fisher is using him more strategically, as Porzingis has seen his playing time decrease slightly as the grind of the season wears on. Whatever the reason, the numbers reveal he's an entirely different defender since that game. 對火箭那場是個轉淚點 11/21，尼克對上火箭，從那晚之前，KP從沒搧過兩鍋以上，但那晚他搧了7鍋，從此開竅。 可能是那表現給予他極大的信心，也可能是在那場之後更多的進攻者跑到他面前，也或許 是老漁有在防守戰術中給予他更大的角色，不管原因如何，他從那場後在防守端正式進化 成另一個人了。 圖:http://0rz.tw/erkQO As previously stated, the Knicks have not been playing the league's best defense of late as a team, and there's work to be done. But for a young player just barely out of his teenage years, Porzingis has shown the potential to develop a strong defensive game to complement his offensive skill set. And that's something the Knicks can build on. 雖然尼克在團隊防守上並沒有名列前茅，但這位年輕的球員已經展現出極棒的防守才能。 -------------- -- ─∥ ─── ◣ =◥"◥’． ∵ ◆∥ ψsherry821224 ────────────── ∥ ◤ ◥ ◤ ◥ ∥ ◤ ◢◤\ ◣◥ Teammates don't ∥ ╱ ∥◤￣◣ ﹍◣∥◤￣╲∥ ╱∥◤￣╲ ▼‵､λ﹀▼▼ play with each ∥◆◇ ∥ ∥∥◣∥ ∥╱ ∥◣＿ ─-.╳ ︶- other, they play ∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥ ∥ ╲ ◥∥▲ ρ\ `, ▲▲ FOR each other. ─∥ ╲ ∥ ∥∥ ∥◣＿╱∥ ╲╲＿◢∥ ◥ | ◢────────…‥． --
