Nature of the injury. It is true that Ross and Curry were both glass men in their early careers, but the nature of their injuries was different. The high-risk area of Curry's injury is the ankle, which is also because of this hidden danger. The Warriors had previously signed a lucrative contract extension with Shen Meng. But you should know that ankle injury can be made up by strengthening leg strength. In contrast, Ross's injury came from a broken knee and cruciate ligament. For a player who relies on explosive power, this kind of injury is tantamount to death.
Technical characteristics. As a representative of violent point guard, Ross's athletic talent was not as good as Wei's, and it can be said that it was even worse. Imagine that a point guard can become the youngest regular season MVP in NBA history just by his abnormal breakthrough and jaw-dropping folding bar. How strong he should be. In contrast, Curry's athletic talent is obviously too mediocre. However, it is precisely because of this mediocrity that Curry's offensive skills have become fine, and his throwing, sudden and passing have become fine. Curry used Lian Zhuang MVP and two O 'Brien Cups to prove that technology can also dominate the league.
Self-improvement in the later period is also considered a major. Professional players are inevitably injured, but whether they can return to the peak with a new attitude after the injury depends on themselves. After injured ankles, Curry not only began to pay attention to strength training, but also constantly replenished his arsenal, from breakthrough throwing to balance between left and right hands, from instigating attack to running without the ball. In contrast, Ross hasn't changed at all after a big injury. After losing the speed of the Champions League, Ross's long-range shooting ability is still below the league average. As a point guard, Ross's organizational ability is also lacking, and it has become inevitable to ignore everyone. (Wen h)
There are many reasons for this. To sum up, there are several, 1. Play 2. Adjustment after injury. Team tactical support.
In terms of play, everyone is familiar with Ross's desperate play. As soon as Ross entered the league, he was a player who relied heavily on explosive power. All kinds of speeding tickets, folding body bars, explosive force is amazing, but as a defender around 193, his organization and passing skills are not enough, and now under the rule of encouraging outside attacks, he has always had the wrong idea of trying to open the situation by individual scores. Although it is less difficult for defenders to attack in this era (because of the rules), dribbling on the outside is always a high-risk and inefficient behavior. Even if you do it occasionally, you can really achieve the purpose of surprise, but who will do the organizational work if you don't do it? Moreover, Ross's basic skills in middle and long-range shooting are also very general, and his shooting action and rhythm are a bit problematic, so his hit rate is very unstable. In addition, his competitive psychology is also very serious. Looking at his early games, he often used his small body against the opponent's inside without the ball. It's strange that it doesn't hurt to say something ugly. . .
In addition, what is even more frightening is that after suffering from cruciate ligament rupture and meniscus tear, Ross's playing style has almost never been substantially adjusted, which is inevitable.
Actually, Curry's physical condition is not bad. Although his explosive power is not as good as Ross's, and his small skills are also good, he was also a glass man in the early days and really became healthy. Except that he is good at long-range shooting, which will reduce a lot of tough confrontation, his dealer is also higher than Ross and he is very skilled in playing, but overall, his overall health is still after Cole joined the head coach team and adjusted the team's style of play.
Cole boldly developed the skills of "speed and space" in this era. In addition to making Curry a double-energy defender and exerting his long-range shooting skills, the most important thing is to cultivate a unique small forward Green. It is equivalent to accelerating the speed of the whole team, increasing the space for outside shots, reducing unnecessary positional warfare confrontation and reducing the organizational pressure of Curry. Curry just needs to focus most of his energy on shooting attacks. In addition, each player's playing time also has subtle arrangements. Curry's first MVP played only 32 minutes in a game that year, and the team's performance was the first in the league, which was inseparable from the coach's all-round development and care. It can be said that if other coaches are changed (especially if he can't develop Green's coach), Curry will play 35+ per game, and he will still be a glass man who takes both personal attacks and organization into consideration.
Different competition styles are the most important reasons for this phenomenon.
Extreme speed change is Derek Ross's basketball label in disguise. Early in his career, he used various anti-mechanical principles to make a layup and became the youngest MVP in the history of the league. But it is this incredible action that puts too much pressure on Ross's knee. After completing his first three NBA seasons healthily, injuries began to break out on Ross, and they were serious enough to ruin a player's career: on April 28, 20 12, Ross tore his knee cruciate ligament, which led to his retirement in the 20 12- 13 season. 2013165438+1On October 22nd, Ross came back with meniscus tear. The injury cost him 76 games, and he was reimbursed again this season. Then on February 24th, 20 15, Ross meniscus tear missed 20 games.
Compared with Ross's meniscus tear, the knee cruciate ligament is torn, and Stephen Curry's injury is mainly concentrated in the right ankle, and most of it is a sprain, which is completely different from Ross's injury. In fact, when Curry first entered the league, his style of play was the same as Ross's, mainly in the breakthrough of camouflage and speed change, which is also the reason why he often injured his ankle. There has always been a misunderstanding about Curry that he is a technical point guard with a thin figure and poor physical fitness. But in fact, Curry's physical quality is comparable to that of Russell Westbrook. This can be proved from the test data before the draft: Curry's height 1.9 1 m, like Shao Wei's, has a body fat content of 5.6%, Shao Wei's 4.8% and Shao Wei's slightly better. Bouncing in place, 0.75m in Curry and 0.76m in Shao Wei, almost the same. 3/4 basketball court sprint, Curry 3.28 seconds, Shao Wei 3. 1 second. In other words, Curry can play like Shao Wei, but the ankle injury made him understand that he can't play like that. For this reason, after the injury, Curry's ball style began to improve, and through special training, the ankle was no longer his own trouble. According to the information revealed by Kirk Riley, the head of the Warriors' competitive performance, Curry strengthened the muscle strength exercises of the buttocks to control the ankle problem, and used more hip muscles to complete the steering movement. Kirk thinks Curry is better than people think 10 times. Curry can pull hard.
In fact, Ross was not a glass man in his early days, but Curry was.
Ross's attendance before that serious injury was quite high, and his explosive power and wide range of changes were staggering. But in his MVP season, I said that if Ross kept playing like this, something would happen sooner or later. Because his play is too knee-consuming, and rushing in is almost throwing his body to the defender, so if there is no accident, it will be a big deal. After the injury, Ross lost his most powerful weapon before, and his own psychology was greatly affected. It can be seen that Ross, who overcame psychological obstacles last season, actually played well, but the physical wear and tear prevented him from returning to the peak.
Curry is different. Although Curry's play depends on his ankle, he is not as explosive as Ross, but his ball control may rank in the top three in NBA history, so he has always relied on excellent ball control and rhythm to break through, and this action is even more icing on the cake. Curry reduced the use of such movements after surgery and increased the muscle training of hips and legs.
And when it comes to this, I have to mention the protective gear of the library. Now whenever Curry plays, he must wear Zanster's ankle protector, which is the kind of material used to fix his ankle like a fracture patient. The lighter, thinner and harder layer is fixed on both sides according to the shape of the ankle. With that thing, the possibility of spraining your ankle again is almost zero, and considering the flexibility, it is impossible to use this material for the best knee pads.
To paraphrase a popular proverb, "No leaf in the world is exactly the same". Curry was often injured in his early days, but Ross survived in the first few years of his career and won the youngest MVP in history. Only after the playoff injury that year, a steady stream of injuries found him.
Both of them suffered from frequent injuries early in their careers. Why did one win the MVP while the other led the team to win the championship three times?
I think the main reasons are as follows: two people have different injuries, different personal styles and different team lineups.
After all, the ankle is a fragile part of the body, but it is also the most stressed part, so it is very easy to get hurt. Ankle sprain is a common occurrence for ordinary players, but it can be big or small.
In the early days, Curry suffered several ankle sprains. At that time, the ankle was the hardest hit by Curry's injury. Once the ankle is injured, not only Curry is nervous, but the whole team is also nervous.
At that time, the Warriors management sent Curry a four-year, 40-million-dollar contract, and Curry cried with joy. Later, by strengthening core strength training, Curry gradually reduced ankle injuries, and Curry also embarked on the peak of his career. Curry created a three-point era and won the championship three times.
Ross's injured part is different. Ross suffered a serious injury from the torn cruciate ligament, which is called the athlete killer. 20 1 1- 12 in the first round of the playoffs, Ross tore the cruciate ligament of his left knee and was reimbursed for the season. After returning from injury, Ross suffered several major injuries, and Ross's peak was gone.
Ross at the peak is the youngest MVP in NBA history and the most promising star to lead the bulls after Jordan. However, the road to the rise of the bull seems to be in the foreseeable future, and Ross was found to be injured.
Ross and Curry entered the league year after year. Curry was the No.7 show in 2009, and Ross was the No.1 pick in 2008. It can be seen that Ross's physical talent must be much stronger than Curry's.
Early Ross, all kinds of breakthroughs, all kinds of explosions, all kinds of extreme pull rods, all kinds of change-direction breakthroughs, were really enjoyable; In addition to the commendable three points, Curry has to make five big mistakes in dunking.
Although Curry has hidden dangers of ankle injuries, Curry has also strengthened the protection of ankles. Curry didn't pay attention to breakthrough in the game, mainly relying on projection, especially the three-point shooting. So Curry slowly recovered from the ankle injury and entered the peak of his career.
However, after Ross's cruciate ligament was torn, the previous breakthrough-oriented play was ineffective. When Ross's footsteps were no longer light and Ross lacked projection, Ross's peak period ended with the tear of cruciate ligament.
As we all know, Curry welcomed Durant to join us on 20 16, and the strength of Megatron Alliance, the "five small deaths" of Warriors, almost reached the point where God stopped killing God and Buddha stopped killing Buddha. They also won two consecutive championships, with Curry winning 20 15, and Curry leading the Warriors to win three consecutive championships in four years.
Ross is different. At the peak of Ross, the outside partner Raul Deng has gone from bad to worse. The inside core Noah is a defense expert, and the help provided by the offensive end is limited. Later, Butler entered the league at 20 1 1, and it was really fate after Ross's peak. If Ross is not injured, it is still unknown whether Butler can play.
Because of the disparity in the team lineup, Ross can win the MVP in the regular season, while Curry is the winner of the MVP in three consecutive championships and the holder of the three-point record in a single season. ...
Both Curry and Ross were injured early in their careers. Later, Curry accumulated a lot and won the championship. Ross, on the other hand, did not give up basketball under difficult circumstances, still did not forget his active mind and maintained his love for basketball.
On the surface, Curry is successful, and he also signed a super-large contract of more than 200 million dollars in five years. Ross suffered many serious injuries in his career, and he is still flying on the court, which still deserves our respect.
Their style of play is, Ross rushes, Ross stands for violence and blood, Curry hides, Curry stands for magical technology, and Curry's breakthrough is also bloody, but he has the ability of three-pointers, so he can try to avoid confrontation. If Ross develops the ability of three-pointers, Ross will not work as hard as before, and Ross's biggest killer is breakthrough.
Ross's dismissal was a rush and a disguise. Every breakthrough rushes into the restricted area like burning life, and fans are also worried. This way of playing ball does great harm to his knees and feet.
In the early days, Curry was also a glass man. Later, he improved the game, which is the power of science. Moreover, under the strong lineup of the Warriors, Curry's playing time was reduced, which also played a role in protecting Curry.
The following is Ross's playing time. Ross really played too much in the early days and couldn't use it like this.
Pity for Ross. This is the way of playing, and it is precisely because of this way of playing that we like Ross.
Two people play differently. Ross plays by his own physical quality, constantly hitting the basket. Moreover, Ross often dunks opponents, and high-intensity physical confrontation is harmful to Ross's body. Curry rarely dunks in the game, or does not dunk at all, and relies on his own projection ability to influence the direction of the game. As time went on, Ross was injured, but Curry still insisted on his own style as always. In the appreciation of playing, Ross is better than Curry.
The first is the location of the injury and the reaction of two people to the injury.
Curry hurt his ankle. By changing the way of strength, hip strength and training to strengthen the core strength to avoid injury, his own projection ability determines that he does not need super explosive power. By mastering various offensive skills and adapting to the ball-free play, Curry's ability has been growing. Warriors can accommodate Durant, and the efficiency of the three attackers is the result of the continuous improvement of adaptability.
Ross hurt his knee, but he never developed a long shot and still played with his body. Once the explosive power drops, the efficiency drops. The NBA never lacks the best players, and their peak depends on the arrival of injuries. Shao Wei, this kind of injury is getting stronger and stronger, which is a wonderful flower of its kind. . . Let's just say it's a gift.
The technical characteristics are different. Curry's entry into the league is a combination of sudden shot and vote-oriented, and Ross is a combination of sudden shot and vote-oriented. Relatively speaking, the breakthrough attack is more likely to be injured, especially the rapid breakthrough. Curry also had a breakthrough, but mainly a breakthrough in rhythm changes. Even if there is a car accident, the consequences are not so serious. Ross's shooting skills have not improved after several injuries, and the only reliable technique is breakthrough. As a result, his ability to hurt once dropped a little. now
The technical characteristics of two people determine the difference now. In short, Ross plays violently, not that he is not good at technology, but that he relies more on physical talent than technology, which is similar to Shao Wei. However, Shao Wei was a linear influence, while Ross's March was full of great changes in direction and European steps. In this way, Ross consumes more than Wei.
Curry is different. Curry was not violent from the beginning, preferring to flow on the floor, and his score was mainly based on projection or jumping. Curry also scored a lot in the basket, but Curry changed his way of exerting strength after his ankle injury. At the same time, he relies more on pick-and-roll, anti-running, and rhythm breakthrough, which naturally saves a lot of effort.
