11月4日,据24直播网报道,近期,勒布朗·詹姆斯与史蒂夫·纳什在《Mind the Game》最新播客中,深入探讨了数据解析与体育科学在当今NBA赛事中的重要性。

“科学,我深信其重要性,并坚信我们应当始终将其置于首位。然而,篮球并非如同数学问题那般直观,并非每一次加法都能得出确切的二。我们身处不同的时区,每周至少面临三场赛事,还需应对各种海拔高度、比赛条件以及对手独特的战术。因此,我认为过分依赖科学数据实属不易,科学并非评判一切的独一准则。”

"Absolutely," James declared, "because there's an intangible known as 'game sense' that statistical analysis cannot fully capture. The analytics team can't authentically mirror the sensation a player experiences in the heat of competition, nor can it convey the rhythm and pulse of the match. It's only through active participation in the game that one can truly grasp these elements. This also pertains to offensive decisions made during actual play. Data analytics suggests that aiming for slam dunks, layups, free throws, and three-pointers is the way to go."

在竞赛中,捕捉到适宜的中距离跳投时机与韵律同样至关重要。有时,球员必须挺进禁飞区,在身材高大的对手面前进行远投,或者采取其他进攻策略。然而,从数据解析的视角出发,这些决策或许与研究成果有所出入。然而,过分依赖数据分析有时会导致对比赛直觉与节奏的忽视。诚然,我们并非医学专家,但在我看来,我们至少可以自诩为篮球领域的学者,毕竟我们在这项运动中耕耘了无数岁月。
