Who is the number one SG in Edwards vs Alexander? The answer is drawn from 5 aspects, the winner will win the championship

At the end of the fifth game between the Thunder and the Nuggets series, I posted a message to predict that the final result was that even if the Nuggets won the sixth game, they would not be able to prevent the Thunder from advancing. The tiebreak battle ended today. The Nuggets were unable to compete with the Thunder, who had many soldiers and had a wide range of soldiers and had a home advantage, and finally lost 93-125.

Thunder, who advanced to the Western Conference Finals, went further than last season. Their opponent, Timberwolves, has the most popular playing Anthony Edwards, and Alexander, who is also very good-looking in the ball, is definitely not inferior to Huazi. Who among them is the number one SG today? Whoever wins this series and reaches the finals will give this answer.

Edwards or Alexander, which is stronger, we compare it from the following five aspects:

1. Offensive ability: Edwards 9; Alexander 9.5

Offensive ability: Top singles look at the average score of Hua Zi 27.6 points in the regular season and Alexander 32.7 points; both sides have declined in the playoffs, Hua Zi 26.5 points and Alexander 29 points.

Huazi is slightly inferior to the scoring data. Considering the characteristics of the teams of both sides and the different opponents they face, the two sides are basically incomparable.

2. Defensive ability: Edwards VS Alexander - 7.5:8.5

Both sides are considered to be both offensive and defensive. The defensive ability requires high physical talent. Just looking at physical talent, Huazi, as the No. 1 pick, is obviously better and very explosive. His maximum bounce can exceed 1 meter. Although Alexander is also excellent, it is only about 0.9 meters and will not exceed 0.95 meters.

However, defense still relies heavily on height, wingspan and weight, Huazi is slightly inferior in this regard. He is 193, weighs 102 kg, and has a wingspan of 205;

Alexander is 198, weighs 90 kg, and has a wingspan of 212.

Height and wingspan are very important to defenders, and weight is also important to defenders in the interior and strength. Huazi is at a disadvantage in addition to bounce and strength.

The data also shows that Huazi restricts his opponent's efficiency and Alexander has a certain gap. Relatively speaking, Alexander moves quickly and has a tall and long arms. It is not easy for ordinary outside players to break through his blockade; Huazi relies more on his super physical fitness to put pressure on his opponent, and needs to be more refined in defensive skills.

3. Attacking methods: Edwards 9, Alexander 9

data shows that Huazi's three-pointers are very outstanding, his three-point shooting percentage and number are close to Curry, and his breakthrough ability and man-to-ball combination ability are at the top level in the league;

Alexander's breakthrough ability and basket finishing ability and efficiency are exceeding Huazi, and his man-to-ball combination ability and rhythm changes are also at the top level in the league. Huazi won the three-pointer, but Alexander won the middle distance, which is Alexander's most difficult killer to defend. In the playoffs, this ability is an important factor in determining the outcome.

Huazi was very exciting in terms of dunks, but the data showed that Alexander dunks more than Huazi, which was related to his height and arms length. Huazi's poor efficiency after breaking through was closely related to this aspect.

How to deal with the ball after the breakthrough, how to handle the ball perfectly and properly deal with the situation where there are many people at the basket and the airtight is another aspect that Huazi needs to learn and improve. In this regard, he not only needs to learn from his idol Durant, but also from Wade who is of similar height.

4. Leadership: Edwards 7.5, Alexander 8

Leadership, neither side has really proved themselves. At present, their best results are all about reaching the Western Conference Finals, and Hua Zi is more than Alexander's record in the Western Conference Finals.

Relatively speaking, Huazi's style of play is more explosive and passionate, and Alexander's ball is also very good, but he is one more point more calm than Huazi, and the rhythm of controlling the scene is better, making it more difficult for the opponent to defend.

After experiencing the loss to the Mavericks in the Western Conference semi-finals last season, Alexander has become more diligent. After losing to the Mavericks in the Western Conference Finals, Huazi has become more mature.

5. Willpower, resilience, spiritual attributes: Edwards 8.5, Alexander 9

Sometimes it is not only strength and luck that determines the victory or defeat of the playoff series, but also the resilience of the team, which is closely related to the willpower and spiritual attributes of the star.

The two sides are completely different in this regard. Huazi seems confident and passionate because of her superhuman physical talent, but sometimes she becomes emotional and seems to have a lot of fluctuations.

Relatively speaking, Alexander is more low-key and calm. He is from the 11th ranking and is not a peerless genius with excellent physical fitness. It is precisely because of this that he practices his skills hard and now he is free to move around and has reached the level of transformation.

Both sides have a big heart, and they can deal with big scenes and critical moments. Relatively speaking, Alexander is more tenacious and difficult to defeat.

To sum up, Edwards has an advantage in three-point shooting, physical talent, etc. His three-point shooting this season is more threatening than before. If he can burst out amazing energy in this regard, and play a level similar to Curry when he won the championship and won the MVP, it also has the possibility of driving the team to defeat his opponent.

Alexander has the advantage in offensive ability, defensive ability, middle distance ability, etc., and his style of play is more stable, but his team's performance in the second attack point is not as stable as Edwards' teammate Randle in the playoffs. There are too many people who can score points when the Thunder wins. Veteran Caruso has improved the team's experience after joining, making it look older and more difficult to deal with.

Timberwolves' second scoring point Randle changed his previous poor image in the playoffs. He performed very well this season, and McDaniels' playoff performance is also amazing. If they can continue their previous output, the Timberwolves will also have the power to fight.. In the post-Jordan era, few NBA Eastern Conference teams won the championship for two consecutive seasons, only the Heat had once won the championship in a row during the Big Three.

So, this time I judge that the Eastern Conference team still cannot win consecutive championships, and the championship this season is most likely the Western Conference team.

Given the Thunder's outstanding performance in the regular season, the possibility of their winnings is undoubtedly greater.
