You also have to pass the ball around a little to get the 3 point shot.

I want Seattle to get a team like next year and then somehow get Durant in the expansion draft.

Sharparoni posted:The Cavs were in the top half of most dribbles last year. The Warriors were dead last. Therefore, dribbling is good and ball movement is bad. Wrap it up sabermetricailures If you think about it dribbling is also a kind of ball movement except up and down

I wanted to pick Kawhi for WS leader on the poll but I figured my homerism was biasing that decision and didn't do it. Should've gone with my gut and also my heart.

Bashez posted:I really liked Aldridge last year defensively. This is probably just a bunch of premature stuff but he just doesn't look as focused right now. Lee has been pretty surprising, actually. I know I'm just blowing a tiny sample size out of proportion. Aldridge looked great defensively against Golden State imo. He was the biggest guy on the court who wasn't a total stiff like Pachulia or getting lovely foul calls like Gasol and he did the big guy's job on the boards. I didn't catch the Kings game but if there's one Spur who I would expect to act like a normal person who hadn't been yelled at by Pop since he was 19 and take it a bit easy after crushing a superteam, it would be him. I think him taking a low-spotlight night a little off is understandable, but obviously not good and I hope/bet his effort becomes more consistent as the year goes pn like last season. In summary yeah I wouldn't take a close win against the Kings as the team is coming down off a huge high as a sign of much to worry about. Props Department posted:Whatever you think of the Hinkie Method for Obliterating Your NBA Roster, it's clear that he sold it to the private equity assholes who own the team when they hired him. His big mistake was trusting them to let him see it through. This is an excellent point in that he realized it would be incredibly easy to convince them he could Disrupt building an NBA team.

Could the Spurs be light years ahead in completing the final pieces of the next Big 3? https://www.instagram.com/p/BMGUhU9BQcj/  (Likely not) euphronius posted:2 guards who can't shoot tho I could be convinced that the Bulls are initiating their own Process, what with signing Rondo to ensure the team would lose all chemistry, but they were too dumb to figure out tanking didn't involve paying a broken Dwyane Wade a zillion dollars.

Love Kawhi's face of how proud he was of his snowball. Pau on the Spurs feels like it should've happened years ago (too bad he's been outplayed by Dedmon and Lee so far). hahahahaha

If Curry were a Great One he would've told his body "not today" instead of tweaking his knee. Earlier in that series, I had Love marked for Not Great when he got concussed and missed a game then played like poo poo after Draymond stomped on his head, but when it counted he told his brain and Curry "not today."

Even if he didn't inherit a 17-win team, he was such a high-profile hire and "get" that the honeymoon period would hopefully last at least a year, but then again I don't know the pulse of Lakers fans.
