Leonard and Jimmy.

The historical ranking is not mentioned, after all, the achievements are slightly worse.

Leonard’s two champions, the MVP of the two finals, the three-time and two-time annual defensive players are all what Jimmy does not have.

In the regular season, all of them have entered the competition since January 2011, and all of them are 3D players who have started to fight slowly.

Leonard won the top three MVP votes for three times, two annual defenders and three regular season matches, which Jimmy did not have. Even if Leonard was criticized for his attendance rate, 628 games were less than 754 games than Jimmy, which was not a natural difference: and the score in the regular season was only more than 1,000 less than Jimmy, and the rebound was flat.

In the playoffs, everyone knows that Jimmy has entered the East in the past four years and led the finals twice: The playoff performance is Jimmy’s selling point.

But Leonard is the MVP of two championships and two finals.

Career Playoffs, Leonard 137 games, Jimmy 119 games.

Leonard’s field average is 21+8+3+2+1, and the hit rate is 51%+40%+85%.

Jimmy’s average game is 21+6+5+2+1, with a hit rate of 46%+35%+83%.

The highest achievement in his career, from regular season to playoff, Leonard was surrounded by strong.

Jimmy may be more legendary, such as this year’s Black eight finals, but the achievements are not as good as before.

However, as players, they are worth discussing.

Basketball, just attack and defense; Attack and defense, no ball or holding ball.

Both of them were good when they were attacking with the ball. Leonard was slightly higher-since 2017, no playoff game had been lower than 27 points, and the Championship trip in 2019 had an average of 31 points; while Jimmy averaged 22 points in the final in 2020, and this season’s Dafa ShenWei also averaged 27 points.

But the playing style is poor.

Both Leonard and Jimmy signed up for a height of 201cm, but Leonard’s arm was 221cm and Jimmy was 202cm. So Leonard made a big circle. In addition, Leonard has a high-shot jump shot tempered by coach ingrower.

In the style of play, many people say Leonard is a card frame version of Jordan-he likes to use small jumps combined with pulling balls.

He has a basket with long arms and wide shoulders, so:

Each receive the ball first has three threat advantages, which can break through the body position. If you want fengshui ball, you can patiently pull the ball and jump to mobilize the opponent; Grab an empty space and grab a breakthrough; breakthrough also does not require getting rid of clean opponents, stepping on the opponent slowly, or directly jumping shots.

So visually, Leonard didn’t want to get rid of his opponent simply, more like that force, holding on.

In contrast, Jimmy’s play: don’t want to get rid of it, take a small step fengshui ball to the Sweet area, take the ball instantly and force it, carry the chest across the line, shoulder and hip, lift a body position, jump, turn, CIC.

So you looked at him without jumping, but it was like an oil-immersed small spinning top, turning in all the way, purring, the ball came in, and there was a very clever change only in the last fight.

So visually, Jimmy is not as stiff as Leonard, but more slippery.

But there is another link behind this.

Leonard will tend to jump fengshui ball + steps several times before breaking through, so when taking over the ball, it will seem to hold the ball for too long, and it is not often a slow shot. In Raptors and Clippers, there are such problems. You can find weak teammates when you break through, but you will have a meal before you break through.

Jimmy, on the other hand, had more use of cover to find the shield, find the dislocation, rub and fight around: he had more ways to defend.

In terms of no ball, Leonard is a better point shooter, but Jimmy’s No ball threat is even greater: his no ball is more active, and stealing the rebound in the front court is even better.

Moreover, Jimmy’s passing series is better.

Let’s say:

Leonard’s single meal is stronger and the basket is more accurate; Jimmy’s series is smoother and more all purpose balm.

But Leonard needs personal control around him: for example, Parker, for example, Lowry; When he needs to hold the ball for a long time to make a choice, the situation is not very good.

Jimmy himself can be the first player in the team; And it is not too expensive to configure.

The defensive end, too.

Leonard’s defense relies more on patience, details, body position and one or two steps of movement, waiting for the opportunity to move. Maintain distance, actively interfere, see through intention, pace, move, and start.

But he has certain limitations: he is better at dealing with people with the same figure as him. In Spurs, Danny Green was often dispatched to the defender. At the same time, Leonard didn’t like the inside of the opposite side very much. It was a rare exception to defend against Yannis in 2019.

In contrast, Jimmy’s single anti-bite was not as suffocated as Leonard, after all, his arm was stretched there; But because of pace and confrontation habits, his defense was much more comprehensive:

For example, in this season’s finals, he literally changed from 1 defense to 5: from Murray defense to yokiki.

This is probably the case:

If they were against each other, Leonard would be above Jimmy-in fact, they played against each other in the eastern semi-final in 2019. Leonard averaged 35+10+4 and Jimmy averaged 22+7+6 in that series.

But Leonard was inferior to Jimmy in terms of no ball, relieve a garrison, passing and mastering rhythm.

The former Spurs is a complete champion team. The former Raptors have all positions, but they just need a playoff leader devil.

So Leonard, as a monster ruling at both ends of attack and defense, can win the championship immediately after matching well.

However, when arriving at the Clippers, on the one hand, he was hurt much, on the other hand, the Clippers never had a ball-holding controller, so we have also seen the achievements in recent years.

Jimmy didn’t have Leonard’s dominance at both ends of the playoff attack and defense, but he was more suitable and more versatile:

Give him Adebayor, Goran Dragic, Croal, he can enter the finals; Change his team, except Adebayor other changes: Vincent, Strous, Martin, Loff, he can also enter the finals.

General:

If you are a strong team with a general shape and a short breath, Leonard will be like a ruthless winning machine, playing the rule at both ends of attack and defense all the way to support you to win the championship.

If you are a team that is not too well formed and almost in many aspects, Jimmy can’t hold you to win the championship-but he can really do his best. Incarnation All Purpose Balm make your team work and push it far, for example, finals.
