Tyrese Haliburton vs. Jalen Brunson is a point guard referendum, and we might be watching the vote swing
On Tuesday afternoon, ESPN analyst and predecessor The American Professional League Kendrick Perkins assumed that the real Superstardom tape in the American Professional League sells Arena on the roads, and followed: “I don’t know if Teres Haleporton It is the sale of squares “as the laugh of the board combined.
In other words, Theres Haleporton is not a star.
This term can mean different things for different people, and if you are a person who determines artistic stars by marketing or collective popularity for a specific player, this is not crazy to suggest that Haleporton be less than this tape.
But if we are talking to pure basketball? Haliburton quickly and has no hurry in filming the ranks not only the best points in the league, but the best period of players. We saw it again on Tuesday night, when Halley suspended 32 points, 15 passes, 12 rebounds and four theft on Nix in Indiana victory 130-121 4 wins. He did not turn the ball once.
The series is now moving to New York to the 5 game on Thursday with Pesrez Until 3-1 winning one away from the first appearance of the franchise finals in a quarter of a century.
Remember when everyone called that Domantas Sabonis-Healiburt is trading one of the rare winners? Well, there are degrees of winning, and Paces earns bonuses that they have not been able to see him coming with Halibuton continuing to verify his health, and thus his team, from the elite category in the league.
It will be difficult for many people to admit it. It is still highlighted Feel Small time. Haliburton shoots unconventional fire and does not shout the star with his physical features. The elegant here is similar to the cloning of Steve Orkel for his screaming loudly.
But do not think for a second this pits. If you are a child in the nineties, you know that Steve Oruc is a secret. Haliburton also does, and he is now the first player in history to score a 30-15-10 match with zero transformations. Do you have any idea how difficult it is strongly as Haleporton did on Tuesday night, against the bodies that are allowed to play to play in the post -season, and not to commit one rotation? The crazy word is easily delivered in a mathematical language, but this line is crazy.
Haliburton is a point guard in the old school with all bells and modern biles. He takes care of the ball (only 1.6 rotation per game this season by 5 to 1 help in the playoffs). It is participating in both the actual maestro, which has a 10 -pass, per game, over the past two seasons, but it does not think for a second one that can almost not be recorded at the will. He can. He just does it more selective. Or the situation. If you describe it as the longest Steve Nash, high praise as it is, it will not be outside the line.
Like Nash, Haliburton offers all this basic implementation through the glow that would believe – if not frankly – more conservative generals than ancient times. It can seem to fly slightly recklessly there, but as noticed wonderfully after game 4, “he does this inside the system” and “There is not a lot of independent things.”
This is a kind of hiliburton, this ability to hide balance as pizzzzz. It seems that it works randomly but everything is actually rigid. It is not easy to withdraw arrogant and warn in the same act, to be in full control of a crime without actually having to control everything, but Haleporton does everything naturally and accurately.
At this time of guards of dominant points on the ball, Haleporton is happy-his critics say it is sometimes also Happy – to take the back seat for registration. It passes forward. It organizes an equal move that moves at a speed of 100 miles per hour. No one can dominate the ball in such a crime, even a talented person like Haleporton, who records only 22.7 % use rate in these qualifiers, just a post in the average player of 21.0 in the normal season.
Compare this to the Nix Star Point goalkeeper Gallin BronsonWhich reached 28.9 % in the normal season, and it increased by 32 % in the qualifiers. Bronson is incredible. This does not knock on. We are only talking about two very different points guards, the person who shares the ball and the person who dominates it, and this series looks like a little referendum on these two methods.
Bronson may be the best player, but is he better for a team? Now, you may not look this way. Average 33 PPG 33 PPG in the series Against 24 Haliburton. Haliburton has a average of 11 passes against Brunson’s Five. But the effect often lies between traditional numbers lines. The Pacers team wins, and not, this series is not everything about Brunson vs. Haliburton. Knicks loses the game of depth and speed. But at least the latter is a miniature image of a point guard.
Paces plays quickly because Haliburton always looks to pushing and moving the ball. With a speed capture, as well as insertion. Everyone is involved and in the rhythm. On Tuesday, Haleporton recorded five decisive passes for Harun NamithFour l Pascal SiyamTwo of Obi ToppinAnd one for each Andrew Nimbardand Tony Bradleyand Miles Turner and Mathurin. The Pacers team achieved 29 teams in the 4th match and qualifying for 28.3 games. That ball Moves.
On the contrary, the average number of KNICKS team is only 13.4 teams per game in the qualifiers, which ranks 15 out of 16 teams entered. Bronson calculates more than seven of this help. Do mathematics, and Net-BRUNSON KNICKS generate a total of six decisive passes per night.
Throwing in Bronson 30 PPG in the qualifiers, which is, with regard to some of the huge offers obtained by Nix Carl Anthony In these qualifiers, the individual tries to overcome a team. Each time Bronson touches the ball he keeps, on average, for six and a half seconds before or move.
Ultimately, the ball will eventually return to it, and then reduce it six times. This is a giant burden that it carries even for a talented player like Bronson, and many people stand for all other players. Not how most support staff prefer to come to work. Former US Professional League goalkeeper Jeff Tig He recently spoke about offensive separation It can come with this dominant dynamic on the ball.
This is excessive simplification. KNICKS does not lose these games because Brunson disrupts the ball. This is the way their crime was designed, which is absolutely incredible, limits the lead maker that cannot be stopped. Indiana, from top to bottom, better team. Deeper and faster with the best archers. New York will not be anywhere near the conference finals without Bronson. Each team can get a file Stephen Carey Who moves like deer. There is nothing in the stone in terms of what succeeds and what does not work. Everything is circumstantial and subject to change.
But this is a legitimate question that the teams have long started to put themselves: Can you win a championship with a goalkeeper dominating the ball-which is one small, a defensive challenge in that-as a single virtual crime?
He did not work James Harden In Houston, although it is likely that it is Warriors It was not present. It never succeeded Damian Lilly In Portland. the Mavrex Luka Dončić is partially traded because they do not want to play this way. Trang Talented like any offensive creator in the league and Hawk It is not possible to get above. 500.
This does not mean that you should be a heavy team to win the title. the Celx They barely pass at all, but in full health they have a small army of individual scorers, and they also prove that it is more than the base.
Four teams are currently alive in these qualifiers, and three of them are in the first five places in the first -ranked aid points – Indiana in first place (73.3 Entry Tuesday), Akllahoma City in 64.6 and Minnesota in 64.3. Meanwhile, New York ranks 14th in 51.3. The number of the individual outcome may start hitting Bronson, who ran two points in throwing the ball at the time of the garbage in the fourth quarter of the game 4.
Haleporton, on the other hand, chooses and chooses nights to set registration priorities. On Tuesday, it was clear one of them. He was hunting shots from the jump. But as Carlal said, even Haleporton’s heavy scoring nights come in a comprehensive framework. It controls the ball for more than two seconds less per touch of Bronson.
This is how Haliburton can enter Tuesday night in shooting by 32 % of 3 in the qualifiers and his team still controls the conference finals, because, according to the design, they do not depend completely on its registration or shooting to compete at the highest level. They hit you in the kidneys.
Perhaps this is the reason why people are reluctant to raise Haleporton to the highest level of stellar conversation, because it is part of the Bespers attack instead of a group. Perhaps this is because he installed the seat in the Olympic Games. Its funny shot does not help. Whatever the reason, if you are not ready to change your mind after Halepporton did on Tuesday night, or what Paces was doing all the season, you will never come. Very bad for you. Because by the time you do, the cart will be full.
