I used to be terrified of Nash/Dirk PNRs but I watched an old game recently and I swear they ran that like 10 times max

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. Man that's crazy. I wonder other old NBA chestnuts are phantoms like this

90s basketball was all iso and loose ball foul free throws. Don't spend too much time chasing this windmill, Dokmo.

I think a very big part of the reason people remember it is because they mentioned it on TV. *telling someone to listen to an album being like "make sure to check out track one" is a very funny pointless thing to do

The first thing I think of when I hear "Stockton/Malone" is an opposing player getting injured from a flying knee. Maybe dokmo's colleagues think PnR because no one dared PnR against Stockton/Malone because they knew they'd be getting a knee to the groin.

i remember people talking about pick and rolls constantly with utah because it gave an opportunity for stockton to sneakily punch people in the dick

there was nothing sneaky about it, he was GRITTY because he is a white guy

I watched the first quarter of this game from 1993, and Utah used 5 ball screens, which isn't much by today's standards but at least is approaching a reasonable number. However, Stockton only had two of those, something called Jay Humphries used the other three. And the plays began from a strange horns set with the bigs at the elbows, the screener facing the wrong way, and moving the entire time.

It still hasn't sunk in that the best regular season team in recent memory added Kevin Durant. All around fucks.

Beautiful foxes, Dejan. Also Dokmo, I feel like a lot of the Jazz P&R was actually early in their time together and became sort of a rarity as the team got more weapons. pubic works project posted:Haha yeah I know. I was just looking at his stats for the last game. I think he scored like 4 points. The Jazz were staying home with him and Russell (and all shooters, really) and basically daring Lou Williams and Julius Randle to beat via one on one basketball, which turned out to be a (barely) successful strategy. chunkles posted:
If he's healthy I won't say no since it's an easy upgrade over Thomas Robinson. Still, I've been pleasantly surprised with the amount of effort and energy Robinson plays with.

With the Clippers loss, Rockets are kinda hanging onto that third seed. I had them somewhere in the lower half of playoff teams, it'd be pretty awesome if they manage to get to homecourt.

oh I just looked at that box score how does it feel kibner, how does it feel to have Austin Rivers roast you in the fire (this post would cut deeper if the Clippers had won but I'll take what I can get)

No but you see Michael Jordan was an elite defender and would lock down anyone today and also score 40ppg in today's soft rear end- I can't even finish.
