Never be ashamed of draft beliefs. I had Deshaun Watson in the 4th round and now he's prob the third best young QB in the league and will definitely have a long and fruitful career. Player analysis is nothing but feelings and intuition.

Still plenty of time for him to be v good

Yea once again NBA thread being too knee jerk with young players. Fultz absolutely has a ton of potential and he's essentially in his second season. He's great at getting to the basket and finding guys, plus he's just so big and fast. Sure his 3 is janky as gently caress but there's time to develop that. Magic got a steal with him.

After last nights Nuggs/Jazz game I have formulated the opinion that I can't stand Doris Burke doing analysis. She overtalks every single point and never shuts the hell up, and everything every player does ever is the most amazing thing.

When did cops start making more than lawyers? Everything I've read about that situation and the cop make me mad.

In NJ high school sports that are attended by 100 or more people are required to have two cops at every cardinal entrance/exit which means 8 cops all on overtime making about 60 dollars an hour for around 2-3 hours. So most tax payers are footing about 15k to the police department per year just for football.

Trae is really good but he's not close to Luka, and adding Cam Reddish doesn't really make up the difference. Hawks have to take a L there.

Yeah for as much poo poo as the Kings get the Hawks are skating away because Trae is a borderline allstar. Might even question the Suns taking Ayton too.

Yea kinda I mean they do it on purpose. They jack as many 3's as possible and if they make them at a decent clip they pull ahead just based on math. When it's bad it's bad.

slave to my cravings posted:

Simmons is a legitimately good defender and decent driver I just don’t understand how every other 7 footer in the league learned how to shoot threes but he couldn’t

I'm assuming Simmons just isn't comfortable shooting since it doesn't matter how open he is at the arc. It's all center of gravity stuff that you learn from years and years of shooting at all different body sizes. So like even though they're seven foot they still have enough body control to put up what they bio-metrically know is a good shot. Ben Simmons at some point in his development either was too big or too fast for anyone to deal with and I'm guessing based on his current skills he just went to the hole constantly. I also wouldn't put it past him having the mindset that learning to shoot is an entirely different skillset than learning to drive to the hoop since he grew up playing Australian rugby football or whatever the gently caress that sport is.

Is Ty Lue a legitimately good coach? I always figured he was just an assistant coach LeBron got along with that got promoted to head coach so LeBron could pretty much run the show on those Cavs teams without an outside coach to butt heads with.

He seems well regarded by Smart Basketball People and not for nothing he did get those Cav offenses running well.

I think some GMs operate for the good of the owners and that definitely makes us perceive them as weak GMs. You also get GMs in limited market teams that can't break through without getting strong armed by agents or can't get a trade/free agent to happen without a whole bunch of players/agents/other GMs freaking out.

I do hope the realize in a week when everything is back to business as usual like last time that the dirty secret is unless you make people uncomfortable, they will go back to not caring.
