The roster of fictional characters LeBron wants for his team is funny. GM LeBron never rests.

So the past few weeks, I've watched a ton of the men and women's college tournaments. I haven't watched much of women's college basketball before this year. Why does the women's game have such better rules than the men's? I feel like I've seen more entertaining games from the women's tournament than the men's. (Though the best game in either that I've seen this year was UCLA/Gonzaga last night)

If Durant was a lesser player and had all the same off the court issues, he’d be nearly universally hated here.

Henchman of Santa posted:Rip Hamilton led the league in 3PT% during one of the Flip Saunders’ years. He’s just forever associated with the midrange game because that’s how he established himself and was the leading scorer on a title team. I remember thinking of him as a 3 point shooter. Is the year he led, the year he shot 1.5 threes per game? Wild how different the game was not that long ago.

MourningView posted:He did but it was also shooting like 1.5 a game so it was probably only when he was like comically open. The year where he had the most attempts per game he shot under 30% and he's generally just kind of all over the place percentage wise because the sample was never very big. For his career it was 34% which isn't anything special but like I said I'm sure he'd be shooting way more of them and working on making it the focal point of his game if he came up now, for the most part anyone who shoots that well on long 2s and free throws can stretch out to the 3 point line fine if they actually work on it. One of the biggest things I remember about him was his ability to use screens to get shots.

The play in should only happen when a playoff seed has a negative record, teams with negative records should have to then beat teams not in with the positive records regardless of conference. Then the worse East seeds could be replaced by West teams in most years.

R.D. Mangles posted:a vicious attack on the legacy of JET I love him but Jason Terry wasn't consistent. It felt like many years he would disappear at critical moments in the playoffs. (I guess that is one way to be consistent.) The fact that their best consistent number 2 scorer in the Dirk or Luka eras tops out at 6th man of the year shows how little helps stars in Dallas get from Donnie Nelson.

Dutchy posted:What I hope will happen is that when the Mavs get 360 no-scoped by Steph Curry to get knocked out of the play-in tourney, it will cause some kind of jarring realization that most of their 30 MPG guys are 20 MPG guys, and the 20 MPG guys are 10 MPG guys, and the Trey Burke guys are Guys You Shouldn't Give a Three-Year Contract To Guys. It feels like they value all of their role players a full letter grade above where they actually are relative to the league, especially defensively. Like they don't recognize that giant chasm between Luka Doncic and Useful Glue Guys that you're supposed to fill with good starters. In this scenario, Cuban reads my complaints on his social media-enabled toothbrush's cyber dust app.

Jeanie Buss not naming Jerry West to her most important Lakers list is ridiculous. Not surprised with how the franchise under her dad did West dirty by basically running him out. I'll never understand why he was run out of the organization, he is one of the smartest minds in basketball/is at least partially responsible for a ridiculous amount of championships. (Phil Jackson was on her list so I think it is fair to factor in their post playing contributions.)

8 of the last 13 Mavericks's games are part of b2bs. Guess we won't be seeing much of Porzingis for the rest of the regular season. The NBA is so stupid for having a compressed schedule in a season with less games. Then again, it is clear they don't care that much about the product or they'd halt play while they don't have enough qualified refs to ref the league. Kind of insane they aren't getting poo poo on more for that.
