CBC radio just (re)aired a great episode on the life and work of Hannah Arendt. I was listening during the end of the Celtics/T-Wolves game http://www.cbc.ca/radio/ideas/the-human-factor-hannah-arendt-1.2913887 Very timely considering our earlier discussions about whether Kevin Durant is truly evil or just a basic bitch following orders.

I just got home and re-watched the Jaylen fall. Goddamn that was a lot scarier to watch up close; those facial expressions and catatonic movements... Be OK buddy.

All these people acting like Durant won't finish easily as one of the top-10 players of all time. I think him versus Hakeem is a wash basically, but saying Hakeem is better because "he's a legend" is silly.

creamcorn posted:I feel like Hakeem would be even better in the modern game than he was historically; his touch and footwork were impeccable. If the corner three was being emphasized like it is now, he’d have been capable of developing the ability to shoot those. It's harder to score on post ups now because zone is legal and 2/3 of the league isn't starting some talentless stiff like Greg Ostertag whose only skill is being big anymore

DeimosRising posted:Which currently hot teams are doing the annual “hot streak at the end of the year makes a mediocre team look good” maneuver? Everyone then overrates them going into the next season and are shocked when it doesn’t carry over 76ers/Hornets have the easiest schedules to close the season.

The first ring he won is probably the worst basketball team to win a ring in the modern era outside of Hakeem. Vernon maxwell was a key player Based on the career numbers...Otis Thorpe is one of the most underrated players in NBA history.

Carlosologist posted:In a Warriors/Rockets series, I think the matchup is so close because both teams are essentially even. GSW might have the advantage because of their experience playing together deep in the playoffs but man the Rockets are so good The Rockets have a junky D FG% relative to league average. It's always been the kiss of death for title teams. Although this team remains somewhat intriguing due to their having three of the top four WS/48 players right now. Their level of synergy is unprecedented in the annals of the NBA so they're an anomaly right now. OTOH, the Warriors are in that weird situation where they've won so much that it's becoming detrimental. Kerr has said their brains are fried. Winning every year becomes a burden.

Cool Buff Man posted:Offensively? Sure, I don't think he'd be able to keep up with everything Durant can do. Players like Durant didn't exist back then but I could be wrong! David Robinson was awesome David Robinson was capable of doing a 70 point QD. I'm not sure KD will ever do it. DR also had a 20 WS season. In the last 45 years only LBJ and MJJ can also say that. Spring Break My Heart posted:Ewing was real good...I think he's hurt by playing at roughly the same time as Hakeem, Robinson and Shaq, because there would have been large chunks of time where he would've been considered the best centre in the game. What large chunks?

The first ring he won is probably the worst basketball team to win a ring in the modern era outside of Hakeem. Vernon maxwell was a key player That team wasn't particularly talented but they were playing a different game of basketball; a preview into what a modern offense was. They were bombing (for the time) from 3 and giving Hakeem room to work in the post. They were built a lot like that Dwight Magic. Rodman refused to play the team defense that was being coached because he thought it was stupid that he'd have to help on Hakeem in the paint and then recover to Horry on the three point line.

D. Rose has the staying power of a horror franchise monster. Cool Buff Man posted:Looks a lot better. I just can't help but think he's going to get blocked a whole lot due to his shot being so slow and low but Lonzo is doing fine so who knows Lonzo has turned a corner.

Are CP3's techs down this year? I looked it up and he's tied for 12th in the league with 8 with a bunch of guys. I feel like he'd have had more at this point in the season with the Clippers, though I could be entirely wrong. I just feel like Doc fostered a culture of bitching.

Their level of synergy is unprecedented in the annals of the NBA so they're an anomaly right now. We should talk a bit more about the Rockets defense because it seems like they're going to finish out the season as a top 10 defense. If you asked me at the start of the season I would have guessed maybe 10-15 mostly due to adding Mbah a Moute and Tucker Capela is of course brilliant and went from having his minutes capped in the low 20s because of foul trouble to being a really good P&R defender in one year Harden and Gordon are clearly trying. They aren't good, but they are trying. I actually caught Harden barking out defensive assignments last night. D'Antoni also deserves some credit for going against his natural instincts and starting PJ Tucker/Luc Mbah a Moute over Anderson some games and playing them pretty heavily. I think this is going to be the best ranked defensive team D'Antoni has ever coached, not counting that Knicks year where he quit halfway through and they somehow got to #5.
