It s very similar to Howard + McGee! The Lakers are right to do this, he s much more fragrant than Hayes

We all know that the Lakers won the championship in the 19-20 season, and we all know that "thick eyebrows" Anthony Davis plays a mainstay on the road to winning the championship. But perhaps what most fans don’t know is:

Explanation point one: protect the basket. This season, Davis interfered with his opponent's shots, 316 of which came from the basket less than 6 feet away from the basket. It is worth mentioning that the proportion of 35.8% of the basket protection is the lowest since his NBA career.

Description point 2: Position. In this season, Danby appeared for 2131 minutes, accounting for 60% of them to play in the fourth position. This 60% value was the highest since the 2015-16 quarter.

Judging from these two data, the pressure on the defensive end is relatively small under the premise that the No. 4 position he likes in the championship season. From the side, this also lays a solid foundation for the dominant performance in the playoffs.

Speaking of this, Howard and McGee can't be avoided. To be precise, it is precisely because of the existence of two people that thick eyebrows can comfortably play the fourth position.

Take the Western Conference Finals series against the Nuggets as an example.

Howard and Jokic had 24 minutes and 52 seconds against each other, and McGee had 7 minutes and 46 seconds against each other. Under the defense of the two, Jokic had only made 15 of 34 shots.

Regrettably, after winning the championship, Howard and McGee left the Lakers one after another. In the mid-24-25 season, Thick Brow was also traded by Pelinka to the Mavericks.

Since the traded exit of the team, the Lakers have changed from a strong inside team to a bottom in the inside. It's a bit convincing - Jaxson Hays.

In the series against the Timberwolves, 8 shots were shots and all came from the basket, but the shooting rate was only 37.5%. A 210 big shot all came from the basket, but the shooting rate was not as good as some short guards. For example, Clippers guard Dunn shot 38.6%.

At the same time, according to NBA China reports: The Lakers will restart negotiations with Clarkston this summer.

I think the Lakers are doing this right. In fact, "Zhao Si" looks very much like Howard + McGee to me.

Reason 1: Data. Even in the best-performing season 22-23, Clarkston's average data was only 12+9. For comparison, Howard and McGee's data were 7+7 and 7+6 respectively in 2019-20.

Reason 2: Features. On the offensive end, all three lack independent offensive ability, and they can only end in the inside by "eating cake"; on the defensive end, the three have elite athletic ability at the same position, and Clarkston has the height and wingspan advantage of McGee.

From this point of view, from the perspective of characteristics, we can define three people as blue-collar insiders with the ability to protect the basket.

Considering that the No. 1 pick was not drawn and the No. 1 pick was missed, it can be foreseeable that the Nets' bad performance will continue. The Lakers' chance to get Clarkston is here.

Finally, when comparing Clarkston and Hayes, it can be said that the former is much more fragrant than the latter. Just averaging 12+9 per game in the season alone, I'm afraid Hayes can't play even if he's poor in his career.

It depends on how Pelinka uses to quote Clarkston.
