L’analyse d’Edwin Jackson
“Zac stinks of basketball, he’s seen it his whole life. It is this very advanced knowledge which means that he is always on the move. Unlike those who have experienced the European game, Americans are more inclined to play with the ball and tend to stop if they don’t have it. But when you make one cut, two cuts, like Steph Curry, it becomes difficult to defend. In Europe, there is a lot more racket traffic. There, on this action, post 5 stretch (stretches the defenses) and attracts blockers to the outside. If he can pass to Zac in backdoorwith his size and intelligence, he’s a guaranteed basket. Especially since he can catch the ball from afar, he has a range of catch (amplitude to catch a pass) very wide, like Nico (Batum) who did it very well in Portland, because he had Damian Lillard and Brandon Roy to carry the ball. »
