"I only played 20 minutes the other night, so when I play a little bit of minutes I always try to get extra work," World Peace said before the Lakers played the Knicks on Friday night. "If I play my regular minutes, I don't need to do extra work. I didn't know how many minutes I was going to play that night, so I had to get extra work done."
Has he spoken with Brown about the inconsistency in his playing time?
"No, I let him coach and I play," World Peace said. "I just want to be ready and I figured I probably won't play as much because some games I play and some games I don't. So I just want to keep myself in shape.
The player formerly known as Artest believes that Brown's coaching is too dictated by stats, and that his 16.4 percent (9-of-55!) shooting from beyond the 3-point line and 51.4 percent from the free-throw line shouldn't keep him off the floor in the fourth quarter, when, he said, "I'm gonna make a big stop and I may make a big shot."
You don't have to be a stat-head to recognize how damning those numbers are. World Peace suggests that when he was on the floor at the end of the Boston game, the Lakers won. When he was on the bench in Philly and Utah at the end of the fourth, they lost.
"I'm trying to win," World Peace said. "And right now, coach is a stats guy. His background is video coordinator or whatever. So he's all stats. But Ron Artest is all feel. He doesn't understand that. Having me in the game at the end, he was worried about me shooting bad from the free throw line. And I was like, 'I could care less because I'm gonna get a stop at the end of the game.' He didn't understand the rhythm that we had -- me, Fish [Derek Fisher], Kobe [Bryant], Pau [Gasol] and Drew [Andrew Bynum]. I've been through games where I would have two points, go 1 for 9 and we'd win. That's what matters. Stats are for people who need stats."
World Peace cites the Celtics going away from Paul Pierce at the end of regulation Thursday night –- when Pierce had to give up the ball to Mickael Pietrus for a desperate 3-point heave that missed at the buzzer.
"If I could count how many times another team went away from the best player when I was on him, I've got to be like No. 1 in the league," World Peace said. "That's not a stat, and coach doesn't ... you would have to play basketball to feel that. When Phil Jackson was here, that's why I was in the game, because he understands that. Philly and Utah, I was on the bench because of stats.
"Every game on the road is gonna be close," he said. "But I think they panic a little bit when the games get close. But me, Kobe, Pau, Fish, we expect the games to be close. We expect to pull them out, and we don't panic. And coach, he panicked a little bit: 'I need to make a change.' So I just sit on the bench and wait and see what happens."
Is World Peace overstating his defensive impact, his intangible value? Well, he's been solid but unspectacular defensively in the small sample size of 26 games. According to Synergy Sports Technology, he's allowing a very average .833 points per possession, good for 192nd in the NBA. For comparison's sake, the Hornets' Marco Belinelli -– not regarded as a good defender -– is right behind him at .834, spanning five fewer possessions and five fewer field-goal attempts.
World Peace is holding opponents to a respectable .367 field goal percentage and is ranked between good and excellent by Synergy in all man-to-man defensive situations except when he defends the pick-and-roll ball handler (poor) and surprisingly, when he defends in isolation (below average). In the latter situations, opponents are shooting .421 (8 of 19).
These numbers, along with World Peace's jaw-dropping shooting percentages, is what Brown is looking at on his computer screen every night. World Peace, 32, said the numbers don't take into account his "cold-blooded" nature and the fact that opposing shooters lose their legs trying to box out his 260-pound body at the other end of the floor.
"I think he just has to get a better feel of the players," World Peace said of Brown. "Kobe, he's got ice-cold blood in his veins. Fish is the same way. And you've just got to get used to your players when you've got two players with five rings. ... We're cold-blooded, and coach, he's got to understand that about us. We could care less what happens the whole game. I could care less what happens throughout the whole season. What matters is that next possession and getting that win. So he doesn't play me for the two games and in the fourth quarter they pull away."
Even though Jackson used to publicly lament Artest's ineffectual 3-point launching –- "And that bothered me," World Peace said -– there's a certain way of handling things with this group of Lakers that yes, Brown will have to learn. While Bryant has embraced his coach and his new style, there will always be an unharnessed element to his game and his psyche than can't be drawn up on a whiteboard. Bynum is becoming tougher, but perhaps not polished enough. Gasol is emotionally fragile. Fisher is proud and tough and championship tested, but his expiration date is being pushed to the limit.
Artest? World Peace? He's never going to change, never going to conform his game or his feel to some obtuse measurement of what happens on the floor.
"The real stat is the wins," World Peace said. "That's the only stat that should count. If you win, that's all that matters. If I'm 1 for 10 from the free-throw line, 3 for 15 from the 3-point line, 29 percent from field goal, no rebounds, no assists and we won, bam. It doesn't matter because at the end of the game, I'm gonna get a big stop, I might hit a big shot.
"And then the player's gonna take a stupid shot because I'm on him because he has no other choice but to take a dumb shot," W.P. said. "And we win the game and go home, have some oatmeal the next morning. It's real simple, man. The coach, he's got to get used to that.
음.... 그러니까........
세계평화가 코치 브라운을 비판했네요.
필잭슨과는 달리 코치 브라운은 선수들을 스탯과 컴퓨터스크린 만보며 판단한다고 합니다.
자유투가 10개중 1, 3점이 15개중 3개뿐이라도 자신은 스탯을 뛰어넘는 디펜시브 스탑핑과
상대선수를 압박해서 좋은 결과를 내준다고 합니다.
그래서 4쿼터 클러치때 자신이 뛰면 좋은 결과가 나오고 그렇지 않으면 닉스 경기처럼 진다네요.
코치 브라운은 필잭슨처럼 선수들의 분위기와 스타일 그리고 진실적인 가치를 보지 못하며
스탯으로만 선수들을 판단, 그래서 현재 시스템이 문제를 나타내고 있다...
코비는 강심장이고 어부도 강심장이며... 그러니까 우리는 (세계평화 포함해서) 강심장이니까 스탯을
보지말고 선수들에게 코칭 스타일을 적응해야 한다고 비판을 했습니다.
Really..........?
그럼 세계평화는 얼마나 수비를 잘하고 있을까요?
시너지 스포츠 테크놀리지에 의하면
상대선수를 36프로 정도로 막고 있는데 (이건 좋은 수치입니다).
하지만 픽앤롤에서 상대 드리블러를 상대로 좋지 않은 결과를 보여주고 있으며
그리고 아이러니하게도 아이솔레이션 수비시 평균이하로 막고 있습니다.
상대선수에게 포제션당 0.833 점수를 주고 있는데 이건 NBA 192등입니다.
193등은 호네츠의 마르코 벨리넬리입니다.
세계평화가 레이커스의 문제인지 아닌지는 모르겠지만 ....
확실히 브라운의 스탯 의존도 코칭은 좋은것은 아니겠죠?
그런데..................
왠지 세계평화와 함께 챔피언쉽먹은거 FLUKE 같다는 생각이 드는건... 저 뿐인가요?
아테 3점 17프로
첫댓글 FLUKE은 절대 아니었죠 ㅎㅎ 그래도 메타의 저 발언은 문제가 있네요. 스탯이 아니라 실제 플레이 모습을 보면 클러치 타임은 커녕 가비지에나 내보내야할 판인데
아놔..요즘 심기 불편한데 뚜겅열리게 하네..ㅋㅋ
전형적인 현실을 외면하는 성향을 보여주고 있네요 = =
2번째 우승때 막판 클러치 3점 찍어준 전직 예술가 선생 아니었음 우승이 어려웠죠. 피어스 수비도 잘해줬고.. 지금 못하고 있는 건 맞지만 fluke는 너무 심한 폄하같네요.
fluke 였던거 같다는 생각이 드신다는거지 폄하까지는 아니죠. 그리고 이 글의 포인트는 메타가 저런 문제되는 발언을 했다는 겁니다.
이 기사 보고 어이가 없어서 옛날의 공? 마저 머리에서 사라지네요 후...
2010년에는 아테스트가 잘해줬죠. 수비에서도 괜찮았고.
스탯으로 드러나지 않은 아테스트의 가치는 인정하지만, 올시즌에는 그 슛팅이 너무하리만큼 안좋죠.
야투율 31.5% 3점슛 16.4% 자유투 51.4% TS가 36.9%, 이는 심각한 수준을 넘어 느바 수준이 아니라고 봐도 무방하구요.
수비에서 얻는 효과보다 슛팅이 전무함으로 인해 좁아지는 공격패턴의 피해가 더 크다고 봅니다.
에휴.. 감싸줄수가 없다 월드피스.. 요즘 스텟은 진짜 너무함.. 슛 던지면 모조리 빽차에 들어간다는 느낌 전혀없음..
백투백은 아테의 공도 참 컸죠. 하지만 지금은 폼이 너무 떨어진듯해요.. 오픈슛을 못넣는 선수에게 많은 출장시간을 줄순 없죠...
이런 발언이 팀 케미스트리에 안 좋은 영향을 줄 수 있다는 걸 모를까요?
오픈슛이나 넣고 말하시죠 세계평화님? 자기 스탯이 안좋아서 이런말하는건가..참나..다음경기 좀 쉬고 싶은듯..
요즘스탯은 할말없게만드는데 ㅋㅋ 감독이 브라운이아니라 필잭슨이라고해도 저건 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
니 스탯이 스탯이냐?
스탯만 보는 냉정한 감독이면 당신은 아예 못나와!!!
어느새 동의하고 있는 제 자신을 발견하네요 ㅎㅎ
ㅋㅋㅋ
1년전 이런이야기를 했으면 동의를 할텐데 지금모습은 동의하지못하겠네요
요새 이런 말을 할 자격이 되는건가요??
어이가없네요... 어이가...
자기몫을 해야... 이런말을 하지..
팀케미 박살내려고 그러나...제몫을 조금이라도 하고 이런 소리하면 몰라도 어디서 감독탓을;;;;;;
이거 감독님 머리 박치기 하는 격인데...메타가 많이 짜증나 있나보네요...브라운이 메타 통제 못하나보네요
결국 웚 ㅂ ㅂ 2네요
