http://tinyurl.com/d55azpe First, I want to look at is his post game. In February, I wrote about this and at the time, he was a decent post player, posting up on 21.9 percent of his possessions with a PPP of 0.881, placing him in the 62nd percentile. Since then, Love has been posting up more often (23.5 percent of his possessions) and his PPP has improved to 0.927 (80th percentile). That's a pretty significant jump in about six weeks of play. 首先從低位打法做起頭。在二月時，筆者曾提過 Love 是個稱職內線球員。低位單打占總持球21.9%，PPP值為0.881(62nd percentile)。從那之後，他低位單打次數不斷攀升(占總持球23.5%)，PPP值進步到0.927(80th percentile)。短短六個星期內有顯著成長。 So what's different? Love still likes to post up on the left block. I wrote previously that when he set up there, Love was turning to the middle 45.1 precent of the time, turning to the baseline 14.7 percent of the time, and facing up 34.2 percent of the time. Now, Love has started facing up a lot more, and as Bill Simmons noted in his MVP handicapping post, he's starting to hit some stepbacks when facing up. He keeps the defense off balance, not allowing them to alter his preferred move. For example, when Love wants to take a jump shot out of a face up — something he does 61.4 percent of the time — he gets the defense to give him space by using his body: 所以差別在哪？如同筆者先前提過，Love 依然喜愛在油漆區左側背框，其中往左邊轉進禁區占45.1%，轉往右邊底線占14.7%，轉身後面框占34.2%。現在 Love 面框的比例增加，且在面框時，他開始運用一些後撤步跳投(stepbacks)。他懂得讓防守者失去重心。例如，當 Love 在面框時選擇跳投(占61.4%)，會運用身體製造出手空間： http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=XlwIsARg3Pk

His body control is fantastic. He makes that initial turn while leaning in with his shoulder, forcing his defender to take a step back. Then he has the space to take a jump shot, which he easily knocks down. The key is that turn. 他控制身體能力很優秀。第一個轉身時會將肩膀前傾，迫使防守者後退，來取得出手空間。 His lean-step through-shot motion is fun to watch, but when it doesn't work, Love isn't stuck. He goes to his jab step and pump fake when necessary to get his defender to give up the space to get his shot off. Once he has room, he can drive to the basket: 當這招行不通時，Love 知道如何應變。為了製造出手空間，必要時會運用到刺探步 (jab step)和假動作。一旦防守者後退，他便能往籃下攻擊： http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=bwQHVxt6UnE

This is where his ability to keep the defense off balance is most apparent. You have post defenders trying to play up on Love and take away the jump shot. After a jab step or two, combined with a few pump fakes, Love uses the defense's aggressiveness against them. In this case, he's able to get his man to jump, which creates a driving lane allowing him to finish at the rim. 從這裡能明顯觀察到他讓防守者失去重心的能力。在一、兩個刺探步搭配假動作後， Love 反而能利用防守者的積極度。在這個例子中，他讓防守者跳開，製造往籃下攻擊的路線。 The block isn't the only area where Love is thriving. His high efficiency is also a result of his 3-point shooting — and not even easy ones. He's not taking (or making, for that matter) a lot of corner 3-pointers, which are easier than any other 3-point spot. Rather, using a chart created with NBA.com/stats, we can see that 66 percent of Love's 3-point attempts come from the wing, and he is much better here than in the corner: Love 的高效率也來自於三分球。他在難度較小的角落三分球出手反而不多，從下圖可知，他的三分出手點有66%在側翼： http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2012/0406/grant_u_love_chart_sl_640.jpg

Love is clearly an above-average 3-point shooter on the wing — 5.6 percent better than the league average on the left wing and 6.8 percent better than the league average on the right wing. These numbers might seem unusual at first, but a power forward who is so good at rebounding and crashing the glass isn't going to be standing in the corner waiting for the ball to come to him. Love's 3-point shots come out of pick-and-pop situations or situations where he is spotting up on the wing. These types of shots are going to be more open for Love and he'll shoot a better percentage: Love 的三分命中率在左翼高於聯盟平均5.6%，在右翼高於聯盟平均6.8%。這些數字乍看之下也許有些不尋常，但對於一名擅於衝搶籃板的大前鋒來說，他不會站在角落等球。Love 的三分出手機會多來自 pick-and-pop，或是定點在側翼上。這類出手對於 Love 來說空檔更大，成功率更高： http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=0I1gSV-8vEg

Since Love is a power forward, he is defended by opposing team's bigs, either 4s or 5s. When there is a dribble penetration or pick-and-roll that doesn't involve Love, his defender usually leaves him to go help — leaving Love wide open. When that happens, Love is available to for a kick-out pass and a catch-and-shoot. If he is in the pick-and-roll as the screener, his defender has to hedge, again leaving him open on the wing. 防守 Love 通常是對方四或五號球員，當隊友運球切入或是發動 pick-and-roll，而 Love 沒有參與其中，他的防守者通常必須去協防，此時 Love 就露出空檔，等待隊友切傳並完成接球投射。如果他在 pick-and-roll 中幫忙掩護隊友，他的防守者必須去做障礙緩衝(hedge)，此時 Love 在側翼又露出空檔。 Kevin Love can also hit 3-point shots off the dribble, and that has allowed Rick Adelman to get creative. He uses Love as a ball handler in pick-and-roll situations to get his power forward open 3-point shots: Love 運球後的三分出手也有準頭，使得 Adelman 在戰術上有更多變化。他讓 Love 在 pick-and-roll 中扮演持球者角色，製造出空檔三分機會： http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=pUhZRAVkNGc

This play starts with Love at the elbow, getting the elbow entry pass. Then the point guard runs right at Love's defender and sets a rub screen for Love, who dribbles back and pulls up for an open shot behind the 3-point line. It's a fun play that can be effective with maybe two power forwards in this league, and Kevin Love is one of them. 這個打法從 Love 接獲隊友傳球開始啟動。控衛往 Love 右側的防守者跑動，做一個掩護動作，Love 往外圍運了幾下球，製造出空檔三分。 The final area where Love can be really efficient is when he converts offensive rebounds into points. He has almost a preternatural ability to read the ball off the rim. Combined with his deftness at holding off defenders, Love creates a lot of put-back opportunities: Love 高效率的最後一個環節，在於將進攻籃板轉換成記分板上的分數。他在解讀籃板球落點能力出色，並且靈巧地延遲住防守者，替他創造許多補籃機會： http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=7SwSHc1yf5I

He's not the most athletic guy, so you won't see him finish strong with a tip dunk. You will see him create space to jump up, catch the rebound, and go up with it. For example, in the clip of his putback against the Celtics, he follows Luke Ridnour to the rim. As the shot goes up, Love pins his man, keeps him away from the ball, and draws a foul. 因為沒有勁暴體能，所以欣賞不到 Love 飛天補灌的鏡頭。但你將看見他在籃下占據有利位置，起跳抓籃板，甚至輕輕一點將球補進。影片中，他緊跟著 Luke Ridnour 的腳步到籃下，當球一出手，Love 牽制住防守者，並製造對手犯規。 --- Sebastian Pruiti 針對 Love 進攻手段深入分析。順便灌灌水XD -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 1.169.179.185
