JesusSinfulHands posted:After 40 games the Blazers are still 26th in offense and 5th in defense, which is bizarre as all hell given their personnel and past history and I can't figure out how that's happening. I dunno, I think it makes some sense given their roster. There really isn't a lot of offense there, especially with Crabbe and Plumlee gone. Lotta defense first guys.

MalarkeyToboggan posted:Lillard missing a bunch of games hasn't helped either. The Blazers are also dead last in assists which is indicative of the poor offensive system that results in too many iso plays and bail out shots. Their half court offense is painful to watch sometimes. So much action that results in absolutely nothing. And somehow they are way worse in transition.

i'm guessing we have compared DBZ characters to NBA players already right? i am shocked that Portland is in 5th right now, given how much they stink. Who is gonna overpay for Shabazz Napier next season

Does "putting on some weight" actually like, do something for bigs? Markkanen already looks pretty big to me. How big should he be? What is the comp? Or is it just code for getting stronger. Pretty much every big in the league right now is trying to slim down in an effort to improve their longevity.

EvanTH posted:Yes. Watch any game with a rookie big v. an established big and you will see the rookie get easily moved around by the older stronger dude. Is this because they just put on 20lbs or because they got stronger, got better footwork and got more experience defending though? It just seems like "he needs to put some weight on" is like, Moneyball-scout esque conventional wisdom that doesn't necessarily match with what players are actually trying to do. A ton of guys are spending their offseasons losing weight right now, and the league is leaning small and high pace right now. I'm just asking questions here.

I would like to see Portland make some trades. I won't speculate on what trades they should make, because I am a huge rear end dummy who always gets that poo poo extremely extremely wrong, but they are extremely unfun to watch right now and going nowhere fast.

If the players want better relationships with refs they should stop treating them so badly, IDK just a thought. Maybe pleading and screaming after every call isn't great for a work environment.

Reffing is hard and yeah there are trash refs, but other sports don't let players away with nearly as much jawing and pleading with the refs after calls. I'm really not trying to be all "entitle athletes " but like, i don't think getting poo poo on in real time all the time makes for a great work environment. But I also don't want it to be like baseball where the old useless rear end umpire throws a guy out for giving him the stink eye. There should be a happier medium. They should also do away with the dumb final 2 minute reports. They don't really do anything other than make people unhappy and cause grief.

Kibner posted:Technically, you aren't supposed to elbow. Not sure about when/how you can headbutt. But slapping is legal and basically encouraged. lol the dude at 6:30 or so gets knocked the gently caress out from an elbow. most of the headbutting seems incidental I guess.

Speaking of Lillard, apparently he has given up on veganism. Turns out it's hard to keep weight on during the season without meat. Go figure.

Enes Kanter is actually hilarious. His interview today was pretty good: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/22170336/enes-kanter-trolls-lebron-james-gets-warning-former-teammate quote:"He got mad at me, obviously," Kanter said, referring to remarks he made about James in the past. "I mess with him a lot, but obviously he's the best player in the league. I respect the guy a lot. But I think right now they are struggling or whatever. I don't even think he's even thinking about what I tweet. I think he's worried about his team. I don't even think he's thinking about what I'm going to tweet or not. Because I think they are struggling right now and the only thing he's thinking about ... just getting his team [on track]."

The B_36 posted:Who's the next underutilized wing on OKC that someone can pick up on the cheap and discover they're actually a superstar in waiting? Seems to be a trend for that franchise. this is a weird way to portray how Dipo ended up on the Pacers, and he's also making $21 million a year so it's not exactly "on the cheap"
