Two days ago, in the game between Knicks and Pelicans, the game between No.1 scholar Zion Williams and Barrett was highly anticipated, but later, due to Zion's knee contusion and the 7. 1 earthquake in California, the game had to be postponed.
Then Pelican President David Griffin announced that Zion would miss the rest of the summer league, so fans could only focus on the Knicks' flower show Barrett, hoping that the supernova from Duke University could make good data in the summer league. However, after watching Barrett's two consecutive games, I'm afraid Knicks fans will be disappointed, because Barrett's performance is really hard to compliment.
In the two summer leagues Barrett has participated in, his appearance data are:
In the first game, Barrett played for 25 minutes, 18 made only 4 shots, made 8 three-pointers 1 4 free throws 1, and got 18 points and 5 rebounds. The Knicks finally lost to the Pelican 74-80 (the game was interrupted by the earthquake).
In the second game, Barrett played for 32 minutes, made only 3 shots in 15, made 5 three-pointers 1 4 free throws 1, and got 8 points 10 rebounds 1 2 steals 1 blocks. The Knicks lost to the Suns again today. 100- 105.
According to the statistics of two games, Barrett played 28.5 minutes per game and averaged 9 points and 7.5 rebounds per game. Among them, 33 shots hit 7 times, and the hit rate was only 2 1.2%. The three-point shooting ratio 13 is 2, and the three-point shooting ratio 15.4%. Even the free throws were only 2 of 8, and the shooting percentage dropped to a pitiful 25%.
Frankly speaking, when you see Barrett typing such data, I feel it is hard for you to imagine that he is a flower show this year. You know, Barrett was praised as a player after Zion Williams in the previous draft. In the first half of this year, his popularity at Duke University was no less than Zion's, and he was even once recognized by the American media as the biggest favorite of this rookie. Although the outbreak of Zion later made his market decline, his strength is obvious to all.
But now the summer league is playing like this, I'm a little sorry for Duke's title as a double star. You know, a flower-exploring show hit an amazing 30% shooting percentage, 3-point shooting percentage and free throw shooting percentage in a low-level league. I just want to say that Barrett probably won the first place in history.
It is worth noting that it is reported that the Knicks are discussing the Shao Wei deal with the Thunder. At that time, many fans asked me how the Knicks could succeed without the chips that Thunder needed.
Now, after watching Barrett's performance, I suddenly had an idea (as everyone knows). After all, I think Shao Wei's shooting efficiency is at least much better than Barrett's (just kidding). I really want to ask Butler where he learned it and why he is so awesome.
Maybe the Knicks fans are really cool now. They never choose to lose Zion. Barrett's performance of "parallel imports" has so far made new york people cry and faint in the toilet, but I just don't know if they will miss Porzingis now.
