It was good for the Raptors to finally win a game, and it was good for them to bury an opponent like the Knicks. That said, the first half still didn't really inspire confidence, and the best thing about it was probably that Yuta Watanabe got minutes.Dejan Bimble posted:Op or mod should put that in a paste bin and put it on the first page.

Hey newbs. Here are a few thread canon things I've picked up: - Kobe wasn't as good as his reputation and is not a goat candidate. He was carried to all of his titles by Shaq and then Gasol. He was pretty good though. - Kareem is unfairly eliminated from GOAT discussions - Karl Malone is Lebron's father - Some bigs who do cool defensive poo poo in their highlight reels are actually terrible at D, e.g. Whiteside - Teams without a superstar that do well in the regular season are a mirage (e.g. DeRozan Raptors, Horford Hawks). Especially in the East. - FG% is pretty useless as it is a function of how many threes you take and also how good you are at drawing fouls. E.g. Harden might go 10/25 and have a pretty efficient night if he had loads of FTs and 3PA. - Owners are capitalist pigs, communism is good. - Giving a massive contract to a poo poo player (e.g. mozgov) is actually good - Ben Simmons is a coward - Obama is bad - I will get poo poo for this post

just a point of order: the more you learn about advanced stats, the more it’s gonna seem like “oh this guy is super efficient in limited minutes they need to be giving him more time” or “this guy sucks he takes too many shots” and to that i say, somebody has to put up shots, somebody’s gotta put the ball in the basket, and shot selection is what haters use to bring down heroes

Deron is one of my like three favorite players ever but nah was definitely way worse than Paul, even if he lit him up head to head every time they played at their respective peaks. But yeah he was really good. One of the best crossovers ever.

MourningView posted:that arizona game ruled so hard. Very sad but also incredibly college basketball that they had no counter in the national title game for Sean May being fat and impossible to box out Still kind of sad May never worked out, he had one pretty good year in Charlotte then injuries hit and he ate his way out the league. I'm looking at the B-Ref page for that '06-'07 Bobcats team, and even though they stunk it's still interesting to see what a crossroads the league was at. You've got Gerald Wallace as a do-everything undersized power forward next to Emeka Okafor as an old-school boards-and-blocks center. There's a bunch of random imports like Primož Brezec and Walter Hermann when that suddenly became popular. Matt Carroll was one of the first major D League call-ups and a guy that basically just shot threes for a living. Rookie seasons for Adam Morrison and future takemaster Ryan Hollins. I'm pretty sure that was the first team I actually watched game-to-game and it really set the tone for the next 20 years in Charlotte
