Martial arts in the world are unstoppable, only swift can break through. In fact, not only in martial arts, NBA players also need to be quick, fierce, and accurate. Mastering breakthroughs to the point of perfection is essential to stand out and secure victory in the game. Today, let's take a look at the top five NBA players in history with the strongest breakthrough abilities.
First Place: Allen Iverson
When it comes to breakthroughs, Iverson is undoubtedly the first because he survived by relying on this technique. Standing at 183cm tall, he became the number one pick in the golden generation, and why? The answer is the breakthrough; the breakthrough is the answer! In the NBA, Iverson can penetrate your soul; no defensive player wants to guard Iverson because you could be shaken down at any moment, becoming the backdrop of the day and the darling of the global basketball championship. Countless players have been shaken down by Iverson, some just fell, and some flew out. It's not an exaggeration to say that they really flew out. Iverson is the terminator of ankles and the greatest player in NBA history.
Second Place: Michael Jordan
Everyone has seen Michael Jordan's breakthrough in his personal offensive highlights. The first step is quick, with multiple skills, and soaring through the air as if flying, making several feints in the sky. This is Jordan's breakthrough. There's really no need to say too much about Jordan's skills; apart from three-pointers, all his other offensive techniques are historically top-notch.
Third Place: LeBron James
After entering the league, LeBron James was hailed as a prodigy with rare physical talents. It's essential to have physical talents to enter the NBA, which symbolizes talent. So, the NBA is not lacking in players who can run and jump, but there are very few or none like LeBron James with his physique and athletic ability. Whether LeBron James's breakthrough is impressive or not, only the players who have defended against him know. If you don't have two or three defenders hanging on you while going for a layup, it doesn't count as LeBron James's breakthrough. Unlike guards, LeBron James's breakthrough depends on impact. Even if the defending player knows that LeBron James wants to break through from the right, he is still powerless because he can't endure it. Some teams usually defend LeBron James's breakthrough with power forwards, as the Celtics did against James, with Kevin Garnett coming out to defend. This shows how strong LeBron James's breakthrough is.
Fourth Place: Kobe Bryant
Kobe Bryant is one of the most versatile players in NBA history, and naturally, he has strong breakthrough abilities. Kobe was a master when he was young, overpowering opponents. Kobe's technique is also excellent, and he has exceptionally high athletic talents; otherwise, why would he be called the "Black Mamba"? Kobe's breakthrough movements are similar to Jordan's, even the hang time is similar. A divine successor, definitely extraordinary. In the combination of shooting and breakthrough, Kobe should be the best player in the NBA, a three-threat player who uses the most perfect techniques, with breakthroughs being the most important.
Fifth Place: Kyrie Irving
Kyrie Irving is undoubtedly the NBA's best breakthrough player, and his ball-handling skills make him one of the top players in NBA history. Irving can surpass defensive players in a hundred ways; that's his ability. Irving has average physical talents; he's not the explosive type of player. What makes him formidable is his technical and pure skill. Irving's breakthrough doesn't seem fast, and the first step isn't fast either, but constant changes and various flashy moves are Irving's specialties. If you want to learn the art of layups, look to Irving. |
