Why is Garland s possibility of staying behind the Cavaliers in the future? The playoffs are weak again, and the countdown to leave the team is

The Cleveland Cavaliers, who scored 64 wins and 18 in the regular season, lost early and returned in the semi-finals. This is obviously unacceptable for a team that aims at the championship and is extremely regrettable.

Therefore, a team's gorgeous regular season record is not a playoff amulet, and the playoff tempering stage will eventually belong to the stars!

On the other hand, Garland, who is one of the two-guns in the backcourt, once again played sleepwalking or even undercover in the playoffs, I don’t know how much patience the Cavaliers’ management still has to be...

I believe the Cavaliers’ management has exhausted his patience. One of the urgent things to do during the offseason is to send Garland away even if he takes the first round.

The reason why the small guard lacks performance and even lacks form in the playoffs is that the opponent's defense is extremely targeted, and the referee's penalty encourages confrontation. At this time, the importance of a star's size and height is self-evident.

This is also the reason why forward stars are more likely to kill all sides in the playoffs than defenders, and small guards are often lost.

In other words, a star can score hard in the playoffs facing suffocation defense. At this time, they rely not only on superb skills, but also on height and size.

Obviously, Garland, who is 1.85 meters tall, seemed to be ineffective when facing his opponent's iron barrel defense in the playoffs. It is naturally a high probability event to perform in a life-and-death battle.

As for the defensive end, the defender's defense has a natural disadvantage. As long as it does not drag down the team too much, it is reasonable, and it will make up for it on the offensive end.

But on the other hand, Garland lost more than the offensive end in the playoffs, which greatly dragged down the team, right?

Cavaliers faced the weak Heat who traded Butler in the first round. The Cavaliers averaged 19.3 three-pointers with a 44% shooting percentage in four games, and averaged 30.5 points per game, and finally swept the opponent 4-0.

Heat player Li Kaile's post-match press conference talked about the Cavaliers that had achieved great success in the regular season, and he said that the Cavaliers would be better without Garland.

Li Kaier implied that when Garland came off the court, the Cavaliers' defense was more oppressive at this time, and they were more able to control the rhythm of the game.

And if this is true, Garland's defensive performance in the playoffs is really unsatisfactory - on the defensive end, Garland interfered with his opponent's 8.4 shots per game, his opponent's shooting percentage increased by 20.5%, and his three-point shooting percentage increased by 22.8%, which was extremely embarrassing.

Let's examine Garland's performance in the semi-finals G5, which is really difficult to match the Cavaliers' identity as one of the double-guns in the backcourt.

Garland made 4 of 16 shots and 0 of 6 three-pointers, with only 11 points, plus 5 mistakes, and the plus-minus value -18 was the last in the team, and it was definitely at the bottom.

In the entire playoffs, Garland only played 5 games due to toe injury, averaging 18.0 points, 5.2 assists and 3.0 turnovers per game, and his three-point shooting percentage was as low as 28.6%, and his performance was not even considered to be average.

It is worth mentioning that in the second round, Garland averaged 14 points and 4 turnovers per game, and his three-point shooting percentage was only 16.7%, which fell to the bottom.

So, Garland, who averaged 20.6 points (40.1% three-point shooting percentage), lost invisibility again in the playoffs, and even when his opponent gave him Westbrook the normal treatment and let him shoot, he knew how ironic his three-pointer was.
