Booyah- posted:i liked the analogy the announcer used of Zion causing other players to foul out like bowling pins Hash, yeah. He continued to fouling out three front court players last night. I think players still don't believe how quickly he gets to his spots with the ball or just aren't quick enough to beat him to the spot and end up fouling him with body bumps because they can't establish legal guarding position before contact is made.

The Glumslinger posted:I think I thought Nurk was the better defender, but I was also confused why Denver was trading away an up and coming center to give more minutes to their fat second rounder They hated each other. They were more likely to injure each other in a fight than complement each other on the court. Nurk was also a good-to-great drop defender before the injuries.

Over the course of the season, the Pels have moved from the bottom right to the top left corner of this chart: https://twitter.com/kirkgoldsberry/status/1390645047549468674?s=20 Team is weird.

rivetz posted:I've often wondered about this. "Man, [power forward] has been ballin out lately, averaging 14 RPG which is almost 30% above his average!" uh-huh, and which way is the center's RPG trending? Is he therefore not playing as well? Makes me think about measuring a player's RPG vs. the +/- of the team's RPG, like what happens to team rebounds/100poss or whatever when the guy's on or off the floor. This stat is Team Rebounding % and has existed for many years. I first became aware of it way back when people were trying to figure out why the Lopez brothers had such few rebounds but their teams were consistently good-to-great rebounding teams. Their team's rebounding % while they were on the court was always massive. That was when people started noticing they played like ogres while on the boards and frequently blocked out two people at a time.

MourningView posted:I didn't think Bledsoe was great or anything but I can't believe how bad he's been on defense this year. The big problem is that neither he nor Lonzo are good at pressuring ball-handlers or navigating screens. With Ingram and Zion both being poor help defenders and Adams not being mobile enough to guard both players in the PnR at once for as long as it takes Bledsoe and Lonzo to recover, it has led to star guards getting to wherever they want to go and taking whatever shot they want to take.

Jaxson Hayes had a good enough game tonight that SVG made him play the entire fourth quarter. I'm so proud. NAW was on a minutes restriction and Stan saved his final minutes to let him close out the game, too. I can't tell y'all how happy this makes me. Still, I think the Pels only won this game because Wes Iwundu got ejected.

I mentioned somewhere on the internet last night that I think NAW is the best PnR traditional guard on the Pels and this is an example of why: https://twitter.com/BallySportsNO/status/1391539757277196292?s=20 He actually attacks the defense when he drives to the rim, which causes multiple players to come up and try to stop him. However, he has also learned how to slow down and play angles and deliver nifty passes inside the windows that he has created by forcing the defense to react. Other guards on the team that run it are either too passive (Lonzo), game moves too fast (Kira), or have blinders on (Bledsoe). e: also props on the Martin twin refusing to help off Wes Iwundu to cut off the drive lmao Kibner fucked around with this message at 14:52 on May 10, 2021 |

I used to like Marc Gasol, but this made me dislike him so much. Turned his body sideways and leaned into Hayes instead of either actually defending or just getting out the way. Caused a player to get injured. https://twitter.com/NBA_QHighlights/status/1394126344808718337?s=20

Lockback posted:Gasol wasn't trying to hurt anybody there, he wasn't well squared up and didn't want to take a full body shot. Have someone run at you full speed and you probably turn into them like that. He could have tried to side step away instead of turning his shoulder into Hayes and leaning in. Or stood there in a charge-taking position. Or a bunch of other things. It was a stupid and dangerous decision to make against a player already in the air.

Summer league is very cool if you are into the NBA but please don't force a non-basketball fan to sit in a gym watching like five consecutive scrimmages filled mostly with guys who are going to be in the g-league or europe lol. She likes watching Zion and Hayes but I wouldn't say she likes basketball as a whole lol. Hates Bledsoe and Lonzo, though. I don't think she would want to sit through all those games, but maybe if I could find something else she could enjoy on her own...
