NickRoweFillea posted:What's the argument for keeping Okafor over Noel? Potential? It seems like Embiid and (probably) Simmons do everything Okafor does, but better. Noel is a free agent and who knows if someone like Brooklyn just decides to throw out a big offer because they seem to love throwing big money at young role players. I'd keep both for now and figure it out over the rest of the season, but I can understand wanting to walk away from someone you aren't prepared to make a big commitment to

Resigning Noel this offseason in any capacity would be really stupid for the 76ers. Which is why they should trade him.

Declan MacManus posted:They don't play Embiid and Okafor together enough to know if it would actually work which seems really weird but whatever They have been starting them together to figure this out though. They just didn't do it much to start the season because they both were on minutes restrictions, not that weird.

The Okafor/Noel situation is a gordian knot. You cut it in half by trading both

I listened to the new all Raptors Lowe Post and the people who don't like the Raptors name are insane. Why have a cool and unique name when instead you can be another piss dog???

If the Raps changed their name, it would be to become the Toronto Drakes and I don't believe any other team uses that nickname unless there is some D-League team named after Carlton Banks that I'm not aware of.

Raptor nickname is legit now. It's been around long enough that I don't ever think about its history. I used to think the huskies was good but that was because I wanted a distraction from how bad they were. Raps own. Looking forward to them playing amazing in the first half but being down 3

I imagine living the year he had to in Sacramento must have caused a lot of resentment to build up that he is just unloading now. they got him on that confidentiality clause member that all star break where he was fired, then wasn't? classic.

dokmo posted:Yeah, what's weird is that if you watch their games, there is a real lack of pick and roll. A few years ago I watched a bunch of their playoff games against the Bulls from the 90s and it struck me how few pick and rolls there were. Just to make sure, I just watched the first quarter of this random game from 2001. I count zero ball screens. To put that into context, the average NBA team in 2016 has 16 ball screens in the first quarter, and nobody has less than ten. There are a ton of screens in this game, including a lot of back screens which you don't really see today outside a GSW game, but no ball screens. that's funny, I remember announcers kept talking about how great they were at it.. and I guess stockton dribbled around and perhaps ran pass with malone in the vacinity and passed back to him for a 12footer, and that was a pnr then? the pnr was attached to malone shooting wide open mid range shots iirc. I also seem to recall that screening was a thing for roleplayers in those days, so you are prob riggt that MVP malone was prob not gonna debase himself like that.

I asked four old guys in the office to say the first thing they thought of when I said "Stockton, Malone" and they all said "pick and roll" without hesitation. Those things are intimately associated, like Rodman and rebounding, or Jordan being an rear end in a top hat. There has to be something here, but I don't know what I could be missing. Maybe PNR was used situationally. Maybe they busted it out for the 4th quarter. Or maybe, because in the 90s like every loving play was an isolation, a couple of pick and rolls stood out even more. I'm going to try to track down some more video.
