The center is the closest position on the court to the basket. Because of this, the center can be regarded as the most efficient team and the core of both sides of attack and defense. In recent years, the position of the center has declined for a time, but it has rebounded recently. Outstanding representatives like jokedge and enbede have emerged. All teams in the league are also chasing the so-called “giant effect”. This article will elaborate on the four centers of the alliance.
First: jokiki, Nuggets
2022-23 season: 24.5 points, 11.8 rebounds, 9.8 assists, 1.3 steals, total hit rate of 63.2%, three-point shot percentage
Yorkich is a flower from the second round, but it produces the most delicate and charming fruit. So far, he has been selected as an All-Star for 5 times, the best team of the year for 5 times, the MVP for 2 times, and the MVP for 2020-23 season. He almost ruled high-end data and is now the well-deserved first center.
Yokedge’s attack in the basket was a master. He often swung his body and broke into the inside line. His hands were soft, and it was almost difficult for his opponent to stop him. He also has one-hand Cosco to cast kung fu, often firing guns outside the line, and the hit rate is also very considerable. Yorkich is still a three-pair machine. Apart from the rebounding skills that should be taken close to the basket, his one-hand passing is even more wonderful. The overall attack of the nuggets is around him, which is for a wonderful scene. Attackers often use his Unfavorable Defense as an excuse, but jokiki’s offensive end is so strong that he seems unable to judge the defense. Besides, his defense is still worth seeing in this year’s playoffs.
Yokiki led the Nuggets to sweep the Lakers 4-0 in the Western games this year. He entered the finals for the first time and will play against the Heat. At present, all major media have recommended Nuggets as the hot spot for winning the championship this year, and jokiki is expected to win the first championship for this team.
Second; Enbede, 76 people
2022-23 season: 33.1 points, 10.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1 steal, with a total hit rate of 54.8 percent and a three-point hit rate of 33 percent.
Enbide was the winner of the league in the past two years. In addition, he was selected as an All-Star for 6 times, the best team of the year for 5 times, the best defensive team for 3 times, and won the MVP in the 2022-23 season.
Enbide was often criticized that as a center, he shot too much from the distance. His attack distribution area is 27.3 percent from shots within 3 feet, 19.6 percent from shots within 3-10 feet, and 10-16, the number of shots in the 16 to three point line areas reached 24.5% and 13.5% respectively. In this respect, we can compare yokki. His proportion of shots in the internal area reaches 30.7% and 41.7% respectively, and the proportion of shots from the medium and long distance area reaches 9.2% and 3.8% respectively. Therefore, some people think that enbide’s too many jump shots affected his hit rate and wasted a good body in vain.
But enbide also has his own advantages. His defense is better than that of Jokic, which is also a major factor in his being elected MVP this season. He swept basketable nets in the first round with a rate of 76 people this season, but lost 3-4 to the old rival Celtics in the second round. So far he has never tasted the taste of Dong Jie.
Third: Davis, Lakers
2022-23 season: 25.9 points, 12.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.1 steals, with a total hit rate of% and a three-point hit rate of%
After two seasons of injury entanglement, Davis recovered his health this season, so he became a big killer again. His position on the court is also 100% classified as center.
Cainiao coach Ham effectively adjusted Davis’s style of play, and Davis became the center to stick to an acre of three points under the basket. The advantages of this are 2. On the one hand, Davis can better protect the rebound, on the other hand, Davis can better block the opponent’s shooting and play a better defensive effect. The defense and rebound are exactly what Davis has made the greatest progress this season.
Davis joined hands with James this season. The mid-season trade has gone through Wei Shao, exchanging jazz for a group of capable generals, plus the eight village base exchanged by Nunn from wizards. The season has started from the play-off, beat the second (Grizzly Bear) in the West and the sixth (warrior) in the West for two consecutive rounds, and then stopped at the western end.
Fourth: Gobel, Forest Wolf
2022-23 season: 13.4 points and 11.6 rebounds, with a total hit rate.
Gobel switched from jazz to Timberwolves in the new season. Timberwolves offered him the price of 5 players +4 first round +1 first round signing swap right, which was considered to be too high. Sure enough, Timberwolves fell into the play-off area, and Gobel was also banned for beating his teammate Carl Anderson. The Timberwolves who escaped the play-off lost to the Nuggets with 1-4 in the first round. The existence of Gobel also turned downs into a power forward.
Gobel’s hand in the basket accounted for 77.8 percent, and it was a real standing pile center. His attack assist ratio reached 77.4%, which was the highest among the four centers selected today, indicating his attack characteristics. His advantage lies in defense. So far in his career, he has been elected as the best defensive player three times, the best defensive team six times, the best team of the year four times, and the All-Star three times. In addition, he has won blocked shots and rebounder respectively, and he has three seasons with the highest scoring efficiency in the league.
Gobel is also one of the four centers selected today. Relying on defense, he won a place in the league.
There are other centers that have not been mentioned. They are: Vucevic, big Lopes, Miles Turner, “pie Emperor” Capella, Adebayor, varanchusa, nurkiki, Elton, etc.
