Chapter 825 (1/2)

Since last season, link has not been too bold to take Butler's defense lightly, so although it is only one-on-one in training, link is still very serious.

After all, Butler was selected for the best defensive two last season.

Butler can be said to have basically replaced Tony Allen's position last season, in the defense excellent situation, he also has the offensive ability which Tony teacher does not have. Although the two always take turns, Butler overtook Tony Allen last season.

However, the drawback is that Butler's attack last season was not really superb. Although he can occasionally knock down 20 + points, in the playoffs, there has been a miracle of scoring 60 + with link.

However, his scoring stability is not good, three-point shooting rate is only less than 30%. So even if he was selected for the best defensive lineup, no one looked at Butler as a star.

At best, Butler is thought to be an important substitute with a lot of blood. Very powerful, but that's all.

This summer, however, Butler has completed his transformation on the offensive side. From the first day of training camp, Butler has been honing his offensive skills. Jump shot, breakthrough, back... He was like a wolf who had been hungry for several days, devouring all he could learn.

Although he learned a lot, Butler did not lower his requirements. He trained very hard, even in the off-season, he came to the training center early in the morning. After people leave, Butler always stays to continue training.

No player wants to be so versatile, unless his goal is to be a superstar.

There is no doubt that Butler's efforts have begun to bear fruit. That's why he's now able to play back and forth with link and George.

Link's continuous changes didn't shake Butler away. Butler knew him too well. He trained together almost all season, even during the holidays.

In the face of a powerful opponent, when you find out the rules of his conduct, you can avoid danger. Just like a lot of masters playing games, in addition to their own exquisite operation, but also because they can always predict the next step of each other's action, can predict the other party's behavior.

Link was blocked by Butler, and finally managed to make it with a back turn jumper.

Butler's take-off interference timing was just right, he jumped up to block link in the first time, link in the serious interference under the shooting miss!

”Bang!”

The basket made a loud noise, which was so harsh in the open Basketball Hall.

George shook his head, and now even link could not escape the torture of Jimmy Butler.

”Shit!” Link yelled, and Butler became more and more difficult.

Butler, who defended last season's individual Grand Slam winner, did not show an excited look. After all, this is not the first time that he has forced link into a desperate situation in a few days.

Butler picked up the basketball on the ground and stuffed it into link's arms.

Now he's going to attack!

Jim Butler's offensive skills, if you want link to describe, only one word - simple.

It can even be said that some are too simple.

This time it was like this, Butler confused link with three threat steps outside the three-point line, and then suddenly broke through!

But in fact, link was not deceived by Butler's three threats. Butler just with a big stride to occupy the favorable space, and then hard to carry link, break through the layup!

In the second goal, Butler broke through suddenly in his back state, still holding link with a big stride and a solid footset to score a hard layup.

The third time, Butler three threats after the middle distance dry pull jump shot, or hit.

This is now Jimmy Butler.

There is no dazzling pattern, no dunk. Solid footwall, wide stride, solid step, able to withstand the impact of defenders, moderate distance steady... These are his strengths.

Jimmy Butler's attack, more rely on tenacity and toughness, his every score is hard work and positive exchange.

You can't see that in Butler's body, those gorgeous skills and cool people. But his hard-working basic attack always makes him score efficiently in fierce competition.
