Comprehensive evaluation] A defensive center that completely relies on the great deterrent of the defensive end to stand in the NBA, advantages: 15 NBA veteran's experience, using height, arm length and blocking technology to compete for rebounds and judge the blocking time is unparalleled. Disadvantages: With the growth of age, the physical confrontation and speed of play are not as good as before, and the means of attack are relatively simple. Played an important substitute role in Houston Rockets.
[Offensive] Because of his body muscle type and shooting feel, his role on the offensive end is quite different from that of the four centers in the 1990s. The main offensive means are inside dunk, second attack and hook shooting, but he basically has no independent scoring ability and almost no threat outside the opponent's restricted area, which is the fundamental reason why he failed to reach the height of the four centers. Average career contribution 10.6.
[Defense] In the first year of the league, he surprised Nuggets fans with an amazing average of 12.3 rebounds and 2.96 blocks per game. Careful fans found that his figure was slightly thinner than that of the traditional center, but his arm span was long and his playing speed was good. Relying on these two absolute advantages, he can easily intercept the passing and shooting of the opposing players. He won the Best Defensive Player four times in his career (1995, 1997, 1998, 200 1) and was selected as the first team of the NBA's Best Defensive Team three times (1997, 1998). Mutombo's elbow stroke is also a heavy weapon, which will not be easily used at critical moments. In his career so far, 25 players have been lucky enough to have close contact with his elbow, the most serious of which was hitting vincent carter on the head at 200 1, and Carter missed six Eastern Conference playoffs; Lebron james was shot in the face in 2004, and James was taken to the hospital on the spot. Let's just say that his court deterrent is still there.
[Location] Center, because his advantages and disadvantages are equally obvious, the center is the only role he can be equally competent. As long as he has enough playing time in this position, it is easy to average two pairs per game. Even at the age of 40, the efficiency of rebounding and blocking is very few among league players.
[Player's Experience] In his 99 games for Georgetown, he averaged 9.9 points (64.4% shooting percentage in school history) and 6.6 rebounds. In the senior year, he averaged 15.2 points 12.2 rebounds and 4.7 1 block, and won the best defender of the year and the first lineup of the best lineup in the Great East. In his junior year, he was named the best defensive team in the Eastern Conference. In the draft of 199 1, he was selected by Denver in the fourth round and signed with Atlanta Hawks in July 1996. On February 22nd, 20065438+0, Luo Xiong-mcleod was exchanged for Philadelphia, theo ratliff, toni kukoc, nazr mohammed and "Pepe" Sanchez. On August 6th, 2002, he was transferred to New Jersey in exchange for Keith Van Horn and Todd McCulloch. Signed a contract with new york on June 9, 2003. On August 5th, 2004, she exchanged with othella harrington, frank Wilhemlms and Sezary Terry Bansky to Chicago for jamal crawford and Jerome Williams. On September 8, 2004, Houston was replaced by adrian griffin, eric piatkowski and mike wilks.
[Personal Honor] The first player in NBA history who won the best guard for four times was selected for the second team of NBA Best Team and the third team of NBA Best Team twice (1998 and 2002). He was selected for the first team of NBA's best defensive team three times and the second team of NBA's best defensive team three times.
[Signature Action] Mutombo's signature forefinger swing action will be talked about by people every time he covers his opponent's hat. 【PS。 Legend has it that this is a disease prevalent in Africa: involuntary finger shaking]
[Black Miracle] 1993-94 In the first round of the playoffs, the Denver Nuggets played against seattle supersonics, who ranked first in the league in the regular season, and their chances of winning were slim. The Sonics recorded a record of 63- 19 in the regular season this season, setting the best record in the club's history, while the Nuggets barely made it into the playoffs with a record of 42-40 in the regular season. The Sonics won the first two of the five best-of-three-game elimination games as a breeze, and it seems that they are likely to win the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets were relieved of their psychological burden and their morale was high. In the third game, the opponent was defeated by 1 10-93, and in the fourth game, the Sonics were defeated by 94-85 through overtime. The two sides tied 2-2 and had to go back to Seattle for the fifth game. Although Seattle played a full-court press in Game 5, it didn't keep the Nuggets busy. The latter played like an experienced old team, with only 1 1 turnovers. On the offensive end, the Nuggets deliberately slowed down the pace of the game, Mutombo dominated the inside defense, and the Nuggets finally beat the Sonics 98-94 in overtime and eliminated their opponents 3-2. When the final whistle sounded, Mutombo grabbed the last rebound and lay on the court, his face filled with the joy of victory, while his teammates rushed to celebrate. This is the first great black eight miracle. Although the Nuggets lost 3-4 to Utah Jazz in the second round, it was enough to bring down the top seed with the eighth seed in the playoffs, making their playoff trip a legend in the NBA.
