ड्रेमोंड ग्रीन: कितना प्रभावशाली?

मुझे सात साल से NBA डिफेंस मेट्रिक्स का विश्लेषण करने में मदद मिली है। पर पलटवार-आधुनिकतम:

‘गुज़र’ पर प्रकाश

गोल्डन स्टेट वॉरर्स के हमले में, 3 सफलता-अवधि (2021–2023) में, उनका ‘ट्रु-शॉट %’ (TSP) महत्वपूर्ण हुआ। फिरभी, आलोचना - अब दबदबा।

�्रेड मार्केट: सच!

सिनरजी स्पोर्टस (Synergy Sports) के data खुलता है:

• 100% interest? Nahi.
• Phoenix & Houston - bas ek margin interest.
• Discusses karte hi bhaag gaye. Yeh speculation nahi hai. Yeh transaction history hai.

+3.2% DEFENSIVE EFFICIENCY

हम ‘Defensive Impact Model’ ka use karte hain:

• Rotation Efficiency: +3.2% vs league average ✅
• Defensive Playmaking: 4.7 turnovers/100 poss ✅
• Contest Alteration: 11% more off-balance shots ✅ The narrative that he’s “washed” is not supported by stats.

Emotions vs Reality?

The fan mind becomes irrational:

1. Acknowledge limits
2. Accept no contender wants him at his salary
3. Yet demand… what? A public flogging? Stats can’t measure catharsis.

Conclusion: Moving Goalposts

At some point, criticism stops being about basketball and becomes performance art. As analysts, we deal in measurable reality - and reality says Draymond remains a net-positive defender whose value outstrips perception.
