Let me explain my understanding in plain Chinese: Why is playoff defense more important?

A well-known saying "defense wins the championship". However, I think most people don't understand this deeply, many people are skeptical, and those who agree with this sentence often can't tell why. I'm also very low-end. I will talk about my understanding in vernacular, and everyone can clap bricks casually.

First of all, I want to say that "defense wins the championship" only emphasizes the importance of defense in the playoffs, but it is by no means that no matter how bad the offense is, defense alone can win the championship. Then it is metaphysics. Dialectically speaking, I am a defensive controller personally, and I agree with this sentence.

Then let's look at the real meaning of winning the basketball game. What kind of sport is basketball? Simply put, it is divided into two parts and two halves. You should try to score more points in the offensive half, and you should stop your opponent from scoring in the defensive half. Finally, if you score more points than your opponent, you win. Well, it seems like nonsense, but sometimes many people just don't think about it and look at the data all day. It's too far from the point. In fact, what I want to say is the relationship between offense and defense. If you get 50 points and your opponent only gets 49 points, you win. If you get 120 points and your opponent gets 12 1 points, you also lose. So I think offense and defense are equally important. 2 points for yourself is as valuable as 2 points for you to stop your opponent. However, because the offensive effect is obvious, the goal is scored after scoring a goal; No score, no score. It's hard to see defense. Maybe if you don't defend, your opponent will still strike while the iron is hot. If you try to defend him and he still scores, it's hard to give people the feeling of trying. So people prefer offensive players. As long as the star attacks well, he can get 2000 W；; Defensive players are generally below 800w W W.

Then, since offense and defense are equally important, why do you say "defense wins the championship"? The point is, because the playoffs are the best of seven games, not one. Another difference between defense and attack is that defense is stable and attack is unstable. Offensive behavior, such as shooting, everyone goes to the stadium to do a standard shooting action and feel it. The first time you throw it, the second time you throw it, your hand will shrink a little, and the ball may touch the iron. A little crooked is very different from a hollow ball, but the effect is the same. You didn't score, zero. An offensive behavior, a slight deviation is 2 points to 0 points. Therefore, the attacking players and attacking teams should look at the state and feel super. The playoff is the best of seven games, and no one can guarantee that every game will be normal, even if you are Kobe James. And defense is different. A defensive behavior, such as personal interference with the shooter, you wrap your arm around the opponent's arm and interfere with his shooting. Whether it is big or small, whether it is up or down, it is a little worse or even a lot worse. The effect is the same, that is, to prevent the opponent from scoring. Therefore, the defense is stable, and it is impossible or rarely abnormal. Defensive players and teams always give people a sense of stability, and they rarely make mistakes. This is far more important in the playoffs than in the regular season. After a game in the regular season, the feeling came. Bobcats also beat the Lakers, and the Bucks abused the Spurs. Can they make it to the playoffs? No matter how strong your offensive ability is, you can't keep it; Strong defensive ability means strong, so it can run through a series. What's more, the champion needs four rounds, seven games and four wins.

Therefore, although "it is the same value to score 2 points by yourself and prevent the opponent from scoring 2 points", in the case of high tension in the playoffs, the offensive strength is often discounted and the defensive strength can be maintained. Although an offensive team and a defensive team have the same strength and record in the regular season, if they really want to meet in the playoffs, the offensive team often can't beat the defensive team, and countless examples have been verified. This is the saying that "defense wins the championship".
