ansonsten spielt CV aber super dieses jahr und hat super statistiken (wenn man mal in die Tiefe geht)
und von seinem Einsatz mal ganz abgesehen. Momentan ist er ja auch verletzt.
When the Pistons signed Charlie Villanueva this summer, fan expectation for his role was pretty clear. As a tall, long stretch four, Charlie would provide a logical, younger continuation of the role held by Rasheed Wallace for the last six years. While CV got off to a slow start due to a left hamstring injury, he’s having the most efficient season of his career– and one of the league’s most effective post offenses.
Villanueva had big shoes to fill when signing with the Pistons this summer. His predecessor, Rasheed Wallace, was dominant on both ends of the floor, exemplified as the only player in league history to record 100 3’s and 100 blocks in a season (four times over). While known for a nearly indefensible post game, Wallace had trended mostly to the perimeter in later years, preferring to snipe from the 3-point line instead of trading paint in the post.
Pistons fans grew weary of Wallace’s preference for the three ball and his absense in the paint. Having watched Rasheed score at will from deep inside during the 2004 championship season, it was frustrating to see him ignore his greatest skill set for the better part of his Pistons tenure. Just how good was Rasheed Wallace as a Piston? Rasheed recorded his most efficient inside scoring season for the Pistons in 2004, where he shot 60.9% in the post on roughly 23% of his total attempts. Outside of the post, Rasheed shot 42.9% on the other 77% of his attempts.
Rasheed only spent 22 regular season games as a Piston that year. So how has Charlie Villanueva fared in a similar stretch this season?
In the 2009-10 season, Villanueva is shooting a blinding 68.3% from the post– which accounts for 34% of his shot attempts. Thus far, this is better than anything Rasheed Wallace put up in a Pistons uniform… and even better than many of this league’s superstar post players. Charlie is scoring so efficiently from close range that he is outperforming Dirk Nowitzki, Tim Duncan, Chris Bosh and Kevin Garnett in their career best seasons.
