overnight Donovan Mitchell He went and scored 71 points. The numbers are so huge, next to him are his 54 points he stamped. Klay Thompson “relative” to the same dawn. next, Giannis Antetokounmpo print 55. In one week, not only 71 for “Spida”, 55 for “Anteto” or 54 for Klay, Luka Doncic or 47 lebron jamesIn one month, plus all those huge scores, Devin Booker’s 58, Anthony Davis’ 55, Joel Embiid’s 53, 59 in November, Pascal Siakam

And up to 6 players (the first 6) will be registered in the list of top scorers. Average of 30 points or more Doncic leads the way (34.4), followed by Embiid himself (33.5), Giannis Antetokounmpo (32.8), Jayson Tatum (31), Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Stephen Curry (30). Also, although it is currently down to 118, boston celtics They reached a savage offensive rating of 121 this season, reaching the highest-ever offensive category.According to StatMuse figures, the Nets have the best offensive rating for the 20-21 season at 118.3.

The NBA lives in ecstasy, in a euphoric, relentless attacking frenzy that is not only undiminished, but is on the rise, both individually and collectively. An increasingly impressive number of attacks have taken place. What’s Happening at Attack Levels in the World’s Best Leagues? Let’s shell the key.

in three

Continued Expansion of Triples

The most well-known key to the growth of this unstoppable attack is the very fleeting expansion of triples. An analysis released last year by the NBA found that 3-point shots 22% of pitch The percentage of teams in the 2010-2011 season at the beginning of the decade was 39% last season. Percentages climbed further on this course, with shots from the perimeter making up his 41.6% of the team’s total shots.Several Dallas, Either the Warriors (47.7%) or the Celtics (47.7%) attempted to go 3 to 2 on 49.8% of total shots. Of course, the influence of Stephen Curry became decisive.

If you look at the average number of triples scored per game by each team, the increase is impressive. Since that amazing 10-11 campaign, 6.5 Triple Correcting this course to 12.2 yields a difference of 17 points. The growing importance of statistics has led teams to adopt his 3-pointers at the cost of his 1-point shooting. middle range, It plummeted from 31% of total attempts to just 13%, but still shots from the paint at about 50%. When shooting from a distance, you assume more risk, so instead of adding a little more midrange as “damage”, it’s a good idea to assume a little more.

However, some were able to be found in medium-range denominations chance As is the case with the Brooklyn Nets and Chicago Bulls, the midrange defense isn’t as “specialized” as the middle spaces like the paint and perimeters, and the fact that there are two good shooters out of that midrange. I am using it.that’s why demar derozan for the Bulls and Kyrie Irving and above all, Kevin Durant in one of the nets. Both lead in success in the midrange, with 14.4% and him 13.8% annotations from there.

Nikola Jokic, great example

Players are more and more complete and functional

The evolution of the players themselves also carries a crucial weight in the NBA’s offensive frenzy. Basketball is heading towards a game where positions are becoming more and more diffuse as more players (regardless of size) get to do more. Victor Wenbanyama As a great paradigm for total players, despite the fact that the ‘Garic’ unicorn has yet to land in the world’s best league. But Bol Bol is a young man who already fills that profile (23 years old compared to the Frenchman’s 18).

Also Giannis Antetokounmpo, in his 2.13 they prepare Rins as if he were a point guard, but a point guard like Luka Doncic in 2.01 has become the most efficient player posting this season.And it has made incredible progress. Brooke LopezAt age 26, he didn’t shoot a triple, but at age 34, he shot 38% of 5 shots per game.

The current center is the most illustrative example of where the game is evolving, the residue, and, at least when it comes to stars, a big man who only knows how to score and grab rebounds in the paint. Just check Nikola Jokic (2.11), Ranked eighth with eight assists last year, he’s been the league’s most passing player for several seasons and is also an excellent 3-pointer. Joel Embiid

At the same time there are other reasons you mentioned Jose Manuel Calderon In a conversation with the MD a month ago to understand the dizzying individual growth of the players, he said: Has more talent and is also a role player. And I think we’re seeing progress on all fronts, seeing more, and ultimately having more stats and knowledge of the game. And that leads to the fact that if a player is good at something, he does it more. “, Extreme stands out.

But increasing competitiveness is also stimulating this kind of annotation. “At the same time, anyone can beat you. There are no easier teams in the NBA anymore,” recalls Calderon. Not surprisingly, the biggest margin of victory with these four hefty scores was 10 points A Bucks winner against the Wizards (123-113), with other games decided by 5 points or less.

The more items you have, the higher the points.

higher pace

Basketball’s evolution to a faster game has also had a big impact on the increase in scoring.In the 2009-10 school year, teams averaged 10 per game compared to the current 99 possessions, according to data from the Basketball Reference. Played 92 possessions, a significant increase of 7 possessions. And of course, the more possessions you have, the more points you get.

Triple adjusted other areas of the game

“interval”

Triple Explosion has impacted other areas of the game beyond the boundaries itself. on a bigger truck. The defender must approach the attacking player to open the shot and open the ball’s path directly. Penetration In an “interval” situation, the team has more space and, apart from the ticket to the basket, it becomes easier to enjoy more holes to resort to other actions such as: cut Or play in the low post.

Celtics are Jason Tatum As a leader, he’s a great example of a team doing a great job with spacing. Looking at his 13-14, the first course that has stats, there is also a significant increase in points earned from penetration. After that, he averaged 16.8 points per penetration per team per game, and this number rose to 27. Within 10 years.

Rule effect

New rules in favor of Transition

The NBA as an organization also does its part according to the rules of the game so that offense can score more points. “Fix the rules” ~Aiming for a free kick and attacking with an unnatural move not to signal a foul~, this season we have introduced a decisive rule that will lead to even more prolific attacks.

As of this course, fouls to abort transition are expensive. because the team that committed them would be punished with a free kick against the offensive player – regardless of whether his team was a bonus – and Opponent PossessionThis rule also applies to fouls by players who do not have the ball. The change raised his points-per-possession average on fast break to 1.16 from his 1.12, an average of 4 more points per 100 possessions.

Among all these factors, the Sacramento Kings assistant coach Jordi FernandezTwo things stand out above all else. “Especially in the regular season and the season opener, I think the most dominant thing is talent, and if you look at it day by day, you have the players. very talented The rule changes that have been made in the league favor shooters,” said the Badalona man in an interview with MD.

The context comes along and it all adds up to join the NBA where offense is becoming more and more rampant. where can i put a limit?
