Battier: Carmelo plays exactly like his Scouting Report

While Charles Barkley isn’t a big fan of analytics, former lock down
defender Shane Battier certainly is. When discussing how it was guarding
Melo, Battier had some interesting things to say.
前NBA球星Shane Battier谈到如何防守Carmelo Anthony。
“I had some success against him,” Battier said. “The numbers really play
out with him, and as he’s gotten older, he has not been about reinvention.
The last two years I played him, he did exactly what the scouting report said
he was going to do, every single time.
Battier表示：
“我有时会成功地防住他，当他更成熟时，他的打法也没太多改变。
在过去两年内我与他对位时，他的打法就像当初球探报告那样，每一次都是。
Battier went on to elaborate.
A lot of players will deviate — Kobe was so tough in his prime, or Durant
or LeBron. But Carmelo, I knew what he was doing. He was on the left block, he
’s going to dip his right shoulder and go to his left hand every single time
— he travels every time, by the way; he travels every single time. But if I
made him use his right hand and go over his left shoulder, he didn’t want to
do that. And as a result, I was able to drain his efficiency.”
Battier还说：
“很多球员都会用不同的手段去得分，Kobe在他的巅峰期很难防，Durant和LeBron也是。
但是Carmelo，我知道他下一步会怎么做。他会来到左侧低位，沉下右肩然后左边单打，
每次都是这样。如果我逼他往右边打，卡住他的左肩，他就不会这样做了。
所以，我能降低他的破坏力。”
