十分贊同以上師兄所說呢!
由八十年代黃軍 Magic 的 "Show Time Basketball" 及 Bird 帶領的綠軍稱霸聯盟;到九十年代頭湯馬士等活塞隊的壞孩子籃球兩度奪錦,跟著佐敦的公牛皇朝三連冠...
這十年的聯盟總冠軍跟 ...
Every team owners, coaches and scouts would love to have a DOMINANT BIG MAN.
Preferably a Legit 7 feet (2.13m) center and weights more than 240lb (109kg).
That dominant big man must be very mobile.
Another word ...
(1) he can run
(2) he can jump
(3) he can move left side to right side or vice-versa very easily.
(4) powerful enough to muscles his way in low post
(5) atheletic enough to make a monster put-back dunk
Other factors such as he can
(a) shoot 20 feet away from the basket
(b) great basketball IQ
(c) have variety of post-up moves
(d) able to read opposing team's defensive strategies
(e) great passer
These are some of the criterias that a dominant big man should have.
HOWEveR, how many big men could easily fill up these criterias?
(see my answer at the bottom of this post)
It is rare to find this type of player.
For every team owners, coaches and scouts able to find someone who meets 5-6 of these criterias;
they will just take him as 1st pick overall from draft. OR
They will spent a lot of money via trade or get this type of player to play for them.
It is very easy to breed a guard, a forward but it is hard to breed a center.
Especially a great center only comes once in 10-15 years.
There is a saying
"There is something you could teach about playing the game of basketball. Height cannot be teach"
That's why owners are willing to sacrifice to take a raw talent big men.
Of course there are a few mistakes too...
Such as Same Bowie, Shawn Bradley, Joe Smith, Michael Olowonkandi, Jonathan Bender, and Kwame Brown.
You might ask why some owner willing to take a guard such as Allen Iverson or a foward such as Lebron James in top overall pick?
It is simple. In that draft class, Iverson and James stand out the most.
They are the most polished player and they are the most gifted player. If a GM or Coaches cannot find a great big man, I am sure
they don't mind taking a gifted talent like Iverson or James as their 1st overall.
Let's say if David Robsinson also in the same draft class as Iverson back in 1996. I am sure the owner and GM of 76ers take Robinson as 1st overall.
Same story applies to Lebron James; if Patrick Ewing also in the same draft class with Lebron James. They will go with Patrick Ewing.
A clear example would be the year 2007. During the draft, when Greg Oden drafted over Kevin Durant.
That is a tough call. Durant is so accomplished during his NCAA days. Same goes to Oden.
As a owner, a gm, and a coach of course getting a big men.
Like I have said; it is not easy to breed a big men and especially a great big men is rare.
So we see a lot of guards, and forwards these days.
Courtesy from Michael Jordan and the media; kids who watch MJ's game. They do want to be MJ.
Who would want to be a Patrick Ewing, or a David Robison?
So in the league, they are many great Point guards, Shooting guard and Small forwards.
What about Center? Rare to none!
Guys like Kevin Garnett, Tim Duncan and Dirk Nowitzki are all legit 7 footers.
They made a lot of the criteria but they are not bulk enough.
Instead of playing the Center position, they slide to play Power forward.
Which pave the path for guys like Pau Gasol, Amare Stoudemire, Yi JianLian and Andrea Bargnani to play PF position.
It makes the NBA league to become more rare to find legit 7 foot center.
This is why coaching staff need to design plays for guards and forwards.
So they have the RUN and GUN system. When it comes to play-off it is always a half-court offense.
This is why a true Big men with skills most likely win the game.
Why we embrace Yao Ming and Dwight Howard it is because they are willing to play the Center position.
They met 5 -6 of these criterias already and media hype them up.
If the league have more true legit center and are skilled. They will design more plays for them.
Run and Gun is a transitional game. It is okay to get away during the regular season game.
During play-off, when each and every seconds matters. There will not be a lot of transitional game.
This is why a dominant center alters the result of the game.
Hope you all understand why the league is design to play run-and-gun.
Even Shaq called himself "L.C.L." Last Center Left in the league.
So the coach staff have no choice but tailor the strategy which makes it easier for guards and small forwards.
Even triangle offense being so effective when Shaq is involved. He creates floor space for Kobe Bryant.
So Kobe Bryant have more options to select how he wants to attack.
Now back to my previous question. Who could meet all these criterias which I have mention from above
The only person who could meet all these critierias and his name is Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon.
