马刺在休赛期引进的强援托拜厄斯·哈里斯 (Tobias Harris) 是一位大家非常熟悉的球员。这位有着15年资历的老将在19岁时便进入联盟，在效力过多支球队的职业生涯中表现强劲，也取得了不同程度的成功。他虽然从未入选过全明星，但也有过几个亮眼的个人巅峰赛季，且在职业生涯后期几乎从未缺席过季后赛。任何关注NBA的人都对他的打法了如指掌。
但不那么明确的是他将如何融入马刺。大前锋位置是圣安东尼奥在季后赛中暴露出的短板之一，因此这笔引援乍看之下合情合理，但在某些特定领域哈里斯能提供帮助，而在另一些领域他可能无能为力。
哈里斯带来了其他前锋所不具备的自主得分创造力
哈里斯在巅峰时期备受争议的原因之一，在于他拿着球星级别的薪水，却没有打出相应的统治力。他确实无法在高水平对抗中承担起球队第一选择的自主进攻重任。但这并不意味着在需要的时候他无法自己创造出手机会。
哈里斯曾有几个赛季超过一半的出手都是非受助攻的。在底特律，他的节奏有所放缓，部分原因在于年龄，但也因为他与同样需要大量球权的顶级组织者凯德·康宁汉 (Cade Cunningham) 共同在场，即便如此，他仍有超过三分之一的出手是自主创造的。作为对比，凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 也有着类似的比例，但哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes) 和卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 的自主创造出手比例只有他的一半，而朱利安·尚帕尼 (Julian Champagnie) 的非受助攻进球比例甚至更低。至于约翰逊，他的非受助攻投篮命中率在季后赛中遭遇断崖式下跌，而哈里斯的比例则保持在相近的水平。哈里斯在季后赛中的效率并不算高，但这在一定程度上是因为他在空位三分球上的命中率有所下降，而这些球通常是受助攻的出手。
能够给马刺带来帮助的，不仅在于哈里斯能自主创造机会，更在于他创造机会的方式。他能为球队进攻带来的新变化是他的低位背打能力。上赛季哈里斯在低位完成了大量进攻，并且在常规赛中效率颇高。这是他在职业生涯中磨练出的一项技能，他可以利用这一技能来惩罚因他掩护而产生的换防。作为对比，凯尔登·约翰逊和哈里森·巴恩斯去年合计仅完成了42次低位进攻。而哈里斯以136次低位进攻排在联盟第19位，这一数字与维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 持平。他在低位的后仰投篮，以及他在抛投和中距离上的手感，使他无需频繁挑战对方的护筐手就能完成出手，而这是约翰逊无法做到的。
哈里斯在常规赛和季后赛之间的效率存在波动，因此寄希望于他成为球队的核心进攻选择是愚蠢的。而他与马刺契合的美妙之处在于，他不需要像在底特律时那样频繁扮演这一角色。如果他能继续高效地冲击防守空隙、积极快下，并选择合适的出手时机，哈里斯就能为阵容提供适度的自主得分创造力，同时还能充分利用后卫群和文班亚马为他创造的轻松得分机会。
在防守和篮板端，哈里斯的身材本身就是一种优势
在整个赛季的大部分时间里，马刺在掩盖大前锋位置身材不足的问题上做得非常出色。当时上场的所有球员身高都在6英尺7英寸或6英尺6英寸左右，这虽然不算极矮，但也不足以应对传统四号位并统治篮板。然而不知何故，圣安东尼奥不仅凭借这套偏矮的阵容生存了下来，甚至还打得有声有色。而现在，他们不必再为此妥协了。
哈里斯身高6英尺8英寸，体重比马刺上赛季或本赛季拥有的任何前锋都要重。根据 Synergy Sports 的数据，他是一位强壮的低位防守者，防守效率排在联盟前21%（第79百分位数），并且拥有足够的身材去对付那些曾让圣安东尼奥防守端手忙脚乱的球员。尽管活塞拥有奥萨尔·汤普森 (Ausar Thompson) 这样的精英防守者，但哈里斯经常被指派去防守像朱利叶斯·兰德尔 (Julius Randle) 这样的强力大前锋，甚至在特定对位中去顶防一些中锋，而他都很好地完成了任务。在季后赛中，他不得不防守保罗·班凯罗 (Paolo Banchero) 和埃文·莫布里 (Evan Mobley)，虽然他没能完全阻止他们得分或助攻，但他通过身体对抗和干扰给他们制造了困难，同时没有频繁犯规，这正是马刺一直以来所看重的特质。
如前所述，马刺在掩盖整体身材劣势方面做得很好，但哈里斯强壮的体魄使他能够自然而然地做到那些矮个子球员需要付出更多努力才能完成的事，这应该能解放其他队友，让他们专注于自己最擅长的事。他的篮板球就是一个很好的例子。在人才济济的活塞队中，他抢下了与凯尔登·约翰逊差不多比例的防守篮板，表现远好于哈里森·巴恩斯。马刺阵中唯一表现更好的非内线球员是朱利安·尚帕尼，后者将保护防守篮板作为自己的首要任务之一。在进攻端，他的表现与圣安东尼奥那些偏向外线的前锋相似，但落后于被允许全力冲抢前场篮板的凯尔登·约翰逊，后者上赛季的前场篮板数据以巨大优势创下了职业生涯新高。
简单来说，通过做好一个大前锋该做的事——比如防守对方的强力前锋并在篮板端做出贡献——哈里斯就能给马刺带来帮助。无论他是首发还是替补，米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 都有机会派上一位在体型、体重和力量上能与对手抗衡的球员，而不必再对矮个子球员提出过高的要求。
缺点和劣势确实存在，但并非无法解决
哈里斯的技术特点在某些方面也导致了一些尴尬的兼容问题。进攻端的主要问题在于他那尚可但并不出色的外线投射。在季后赛中，对手经常放空哈里斯，而他却无法让对手付出代价。如果他与文班亚马同时在场，对手很可能会用中锋来游走协防哈里斯，而用大前锋去对位文班亚马，就像哈里森·巴恩斯担任首发时那样。虽然哈里斯的进攻手段比巴恩斯更全面，但他的打法偏向力量型，这在面对七英尺高的内线时并没有太大优势。
在防守端，哈里斯的身材和年龄限制了他在第一线的防守效果。在面对试图单打他的重型持球人时，他通常能做得不错，但有时在绕过掩护时会显得很吃力。更严重的问题是，对方的矮个持球人会在挡拆中针对他，强行制造换防以形成错位。哈里斯是一位聪明的防守老将，他会尝试将对手引向协防方向，或者利用自己的臂展来保持防守距离，但他很容易受到急停三分球的惩罚。他确实不像联盟中那些顶尖大前锋那样具备出色的无限换防能力。
好消息是，他出手果断，在常规赛中能把握住空位机会，而且除了上个季后赛之外，他在以往的季后赛中也曾取得过成功。随着年龄的增长，他的投篮节奏可能会变慢，但他也完全有可能投进足够多的球，从而迫使对方防守端不得不对他保持警惕。
在防守端，马刺拥有弥补他人防守漏洞的终极武器：维克托·文班亚马。哈里斯应该可以更贴身地防守持球人，因为他的身后站着世界上最好的护筐手，而且圣安东尼奥传统上也能接受对手投中距离跳投。
托拜厄斯·哈里斯并不是那种能彻底改变比赛局势的超级巨星。他只是一位稳健的老将。而他之所以能对马刺产生潜在的重大影响，是因为他带来了目前阵容中其他人所不具备的技术与身材的结合。虽然在某些时候他的缺点和局限性会暴露无遗，但圣安东尼奥似乎有办法来化解这些问题。
自由市场上或许有更令人兴奋的人选，但对于急需他所带来的特定才华和战术工具的马刺队来说，哈里斯似乎是一个绝佳的选择。

How Tobias Harris fits with the Spurs
The Spurs’ big offseason addition, Tobias Harris, is a known commodity. The 15-year veteran entered the league as a 19-year-old and had a strong career playing for several teams, with varying levels of success. He was never an All-Star but had some standout individual years and rarely missed the playoffs late in his career. Anyone who follows the league is familiar with his game.
What’s not as clear is how he fits on the Spurs. The power forward spot was one of the weaknesses that were exposed in the postseason for San Antonio, so the addition makes sense at first glance, but there are specific areas in which Harris will help and others in which he might not.
Harris brings shot creation that none of the other forwards offer
One of the reasons Harris was a divisive player at his peak was that he was getting paid like a star without producing like one. He simply wasn’t able to handle the shot creation responsibilities of a top option at a high enough level. But that doesn’t mean he’s unable to get his shot when needed.
Harris had years in which over half of his shots were unassisted. He’s slowed down in Detroit, in part because of his age but also because he shared the floor with an elite creator who is also ball-dominant in Cade Cunningham, but still created over a third of his shots. As a comparison, Keldon Johnson posted a similar percentage, but Harrison Barnes and Carter Bryant created for themselves half as many times, and Julian Champagnie posted an even lower percentage of unassisted buckets. As for Johnson, the percentage of unassisted field goals cratered in the playoffs while Harris’ remained at around the same level. Harris’ efficiency in the postseason wasn’t great, but that was in part caused by a dip in his shooting percentage on open threes, which are normally assisted field goal attempts.
It’s not just that Harris can create for himself, but how he does it that could help the Spurs. The wrinkle that he offers the offense is his ability to post up. Harris went to work on the block a lot last season and was effective at it in the regular season. It’s a skill he developed over his career and one that he can use to punish the switches that come from his screening. For comparison, Keldon Johnson and Harrison Barnes finished a combined 42 possessions in the post last year. Harris ranked 19th in the league with 136 possessions, the same number as Victor Wembanyama. His fadeaway in the post and his touch on floaters and from the midrange allow him to get his shot up without having to challenge rim protectors constantly, something Johnson couldn’t do.
There are swings in efficiency between the regular season and the playoffs for Harris, so it would be foolish to rely on him to be one of the first options. The beauty of his fit with the Spurs is that he doesn’t have to be one, like he often needed to in Detroit. If he can continue to be effective attacking gaps and running the floor while also picking his spots well, Harris can offer lineups the right amount of shot creation while also taking advantage of the easy looks the guards and Wembanyama will get him.
On defense and the boards, Harris’ size is a skill in itself
The Spurs did a fantastic job of hiding their lack of size at the power forward spot for most of the season. Everyone who played was either 6’7” or 6’6”, which is not exceedingly small but also not big enough to handle traditional fours and dominate the glass. Yet somehow, San Antonio not only survived but thrived with smallish units. Now, they won’t have to.
Harris is 6’8” and heavier than any forward the Spurs had available last season or will have available this year. He’s a stout post defender, ranking in the 79th percentile, according to Synergy Sports data, and has the size to handle the type of player San Antonio had to scramble to defend. Despite the Pistons having an elite defender in Ausar Thompson, Harris was routinely assigned to guard the big power forwards like Julius Randle as well as some centers in specific matchups, and he was up to the task. In the playoffs, he had to defend Paolo Banchero and Evan Mobley, and while he didn’t stop them from scoring or assisting, he made things difficult for them by being physical and disruptive without constantly fouling, something that the Spurs always value.
As mentioned, the Spurs did a good job of hiding their lack of size as a team, but Harris’ big body allows him to naturally do things that smaller guys have to exert more effort to achieve, which should free up others to do what they do best. His rebounding is a good example. On a stacked Pistons team, he pulled down around the same share of available defensive rebounds as Keldon Johnson and did much better than Harrison Barnes. The only Spurs non-big who did better was Julian Champagnie, who made it one of his priorities to clean the defensive glass. On the offensive end, he did similarly to San Antonio’s perimeter-oriented forwards while trailing Keldon Johnson, who was given the green light to crash the glass, getting the best offensive numbers of his career by a huge margin.
Simply put, by doing what a power forward is expected to do, like guarding other big forwards and contributing on the boards, Harris will help the Spurs. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, Mitch Johnson will have the opportunity to have someone out there who is as big, heavy, and strong as the guys other teams have instead of having to ask more of smaller players.
The weaknesses and downsides are real, but manageable
There are a few ways in which Harris’ skill set makes him an awkward fit in some areas. The main one on offense is a decent but not great outside shot. Opponents routinely left Harris open in the playoffs, and he couldn’t make them pay. He’ll likely be guarded by a center who roams while Wembanyama has a power forward on him if they share the floor, just as it happened when Harrison Barnes was the starter. And while his offensive game is more well-rounded than Barnes’, it’s based on power, which is not of much use against a seven-footer.
On defense, Harris’ size and age conspire against him at the point of attack. He normally does a decent job on big ball handlers who try to attack him in isolation but can struggle to navigate screens at times. A bigger issue is how small ball handlers target him on pick-and-rolls to force the switch and get a mismatch. Harris is a smart veteran who tries to either steer them towards help or use his length to space them out, but can be hurt by pull-up threes. He’s just not as swithable as the best power forwards out there.
The good news is he doesn’t hesitate to shoot and has made open looks in the regular season and has had success even in the playoffs aside from last postseason. He’s aging, so he might be slowing down as a shooter, but it’s also possible he hits enough looks to make the defense pay attention to him.
Defensively, the Spurs have the ultimate weapon to mitigate the weaknesses of others: Victor Wembanyama. Harris should be able to play ball handlers closer because he has the best rim protector in the world behind him, and San Antonio has traditionally lived with conceding mid-range jumpers.
Tobias Harris is not a game-changer. He’s just a solid veteran. What makes him potentially impactful for the Spurs is that he brings a combination of skills and size that no one else on the roster has. There will be times when his weaknesses and limitations become evident, but San Antonio seems to have ways to mitigate them.
There might have been more exciting free agents out there, but Harris seems to be a great fit for a Spurs team that needed the specific talents and tools he brings to the table.
