They knew this his rookie year too, he never seemed to ever attack the rim the same since his rookie year The jumper thing frustrating because he would do all the talk about improving and spend the summer working on it but never actually took the steps he needed to. He spent one year talking a bunch about working with Shot Doc but ultimately never did because their schedules never lined up or some BS like that. I don't really know what Tyreke's schedule is like from April through September but I'm pretty sure it's not that busy

Papercut posted:I don't know, Ballstreams clearly way oversold this season because the connection quality has dropped tremendously. I don't think I've been able to watch a live game this year that wasn't buffering like crazy. Yeah I kind of stopped watching games on Ballstreams because games would just randomly quit and dump me back into the app. Or it would freeze for like 2 minutes before start playing again and then randomly skip all the way forward in the game and I'd miss a bunch of poo poo. I pretty much gave up ever trying to play an HD stream Plus having the app rely on 3rd party players on my phone is kind of cool I guess but I miss good built-in control options

Ungratek posted:The NBA is not rigging drafts, they gain nothing from it and lose everything if it were to come out. Not to mention the accounting firm they hire for it would never sign off on it for the same reason Yeah the real drawing is done back stage with actual representatives of the team (not hot daughters of the owners). Rigging it would imply that not only would the accounting firm sign off on it but the other teams in the league agreeing to reward Dan Gilbert for some reason. But nope stuff looks fishy and narratives are easy to write after the fact so something has gotta be up

Rajon Weirdo http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/04/rajon-rondo-walks-out-of-movies-if-they-have-plot-holes quote:Provide him with bad information? “Your credibility is shot,” Rondo says. And if he doesn’t buy the narrative, even off the floor, he’ll bail, he’ll disengage, as he does on movies whose storylines stray from logic, even for a moment. His last theater walkout: The Equalizer, starring Denzel Washington. “I didn’t understand how he got the cop’s number,” Rondo says, referencing a certain scene. “It was just too much.” He recently watched the movie again to see if he could stomach it. He couldn’t.

Harden also came along pretty nice (remember when people were saying that OKC could have had Tyreke instead of Harden). Steven Adams defied all explanation by becoming a good basketball player. Reggie Jackson too. The org does a nice job of developing players, don't know how much you can credit Brooks for that but someone there is doing good work

The players like Brooks and he appears to get along with the front office. Based on the rest of the league, it is very hard to find a head coach that can actually do those two things

John Stockton, good to very good shooter. Not a great shooter. Don't get me wrong. He was an all-time great player. But John Stockton would not be considered a great shooter.

The Glumslinger posted:I was just looking at thread from that draft recently, and it was hilarious how many people were defending that pick I talked myself into it because the the draft seemed weak at the time so why not get a role player who could be a really good interior defender. Of course the draft turned out way better than anyone could honestly say they foresaw. Of course Thabeet wasn't that but it's one of those "if you squint really hard it kind of looks like this" things.

Philthy posted:Some can move themselves up a bit in the draft and show they're not a flash in the pan, like Kaminsky. He was expected 2nd round last year I believe. (900m) 1st round 10th this year. (2m+) He effectively doubled his value. If you're projected only in the second round I can see deciding to go back, but if you're slated to go in the first round you're taking a big risk not doing so. And the prospect of playing up your stock for a higher pick is offset by your stock dropping Plus the earlier you come out the more years of earning potential you'd have

If they can browbeat someone into getting more free labor, which equals more wins, which equals more millions or a chance at a job at a better school, then they'll do it. Cousins loved Calipari. When considering the draft he told Cousins to look out for his family (I.e. get drafted and paid)
