Chad Ford's mock is up and has Philly taking Fultz #1 and Monk #4 and holy poo poo I want to see that team with Embiid and Simmons. If you aren't watching these guys in college they are playmaking machines with scoring galore.

Lockback posted:I don't see how a team of Beverly/Gordon/Ariza/Anderson/Capela is a .500 team at all, I'd think that team would be closer to the Mavericks. Maybe a .333 win percentage. Guys like Gordon, Ariza and Capela are having good seasons BECAUSE of Harden. You start asking those guys to carry the team I think they all turn into pumpkins. Gordon is the #2 3P shooter in the whole league. I don't think it can all be from Harden.

Blind Pineapple posted:With Russell Westbrook averaging 31/10/10 into January, you'd think that would break some of the advanced stats. He's leading PER by a little bit, is running away with BPM on a record-setting pace, and has a healthy lead on VORP. In WS and WS/48, he's 10 or so, and Harden's leading the league in both. A lot of people have already responded but I'll add some more. RW has an eFG% of 46.6% this year. That's not good. WS penalizes him for his subpar FG shooting. PER and BPM don't mind the inefficiency as much and give more credit to RW's USG% of 42.2%. VORP is just BPM (taking minutes into account). RW is #3 in the league in FT production (FT - .44 * FTA) behind James Harden and Jimmy Butler. However his FGNP (PTS - FT - FGA) is within the bottom ten of the entire league: code:If RW was currently shooting great from the field like Kyle Lowry, Stephen Curry or Giannis Antetokounmpo he'd be on track for a 20+ WS season and a strong favorite for MVP (considering OKC would be winning a ton of games if he shot like that). G-Hawk posted:Jimmy Butler's game score last night was the 9th highest of all time, 3rd highest since 1994. James Harden's NYE game was #25 all time. It's a guarantee he wouldn't have done that with Rondo dribbling around fishing for sad assists all night.

That Giannis article is great. quote:The first time Kidd benched him, Antetokounmpo was irate. €œI was like, €˜Let'€™s see what this guy did in his career, anyway,’ †Antetokounmpo recounts, and called up Kidd’s bio on his phone. €œI saw Rookie of the Year, NBA championship, USA Olympic gold medal, second in assists, fifth in made threes, blah, blah, blah. I was like, Jesus freaking Christ, how can I compete with that? I better zip it.€

Hand Row posted:He basically has, a PG who can't shoot. Unfortunately for him the league tilted even further towards shooting. Yeah when he can go against a team that can't stop penetration he suddenly looks like an easy future all-star. He looks useless, otherwise. Unfortunately we're at a point right now where only about half the teams in the league play defense poorly enough for him to do his thing.

It's been like 1 minute of court time with Embiid and Noel and I already think it could really work in limited minutes. So much more fluid and dynamic than when Okafor is on the court. e: this isn't the GDT. Oh well aBagorn fucked around with this message at 01:47 on Jan 4, 2017 |

Crazy Ted posted:I wonder if any Kansas Jayhwak players went through the same thing in the 19XX's when they were coached for a year or two by James Naismith. I don't know about this one but when Danny Manning became an assistant coach some players were surprised to find out he played a little ball. Yeah nearly 3000 points in college. Also when Wilt came to retire his KU jersey when I was in college there were plenty of people who had no idea who he was.

A decent amount of ESPN analysts bet against the Mavs every round that year. (The least in the Portland series but that was still one of their more popular first round upset picks.) Lol that a slowly dying network spends time going back to change incorrect playoff picks instead of creating better content.

Crazy Ted posted:Well given that Giannia grew up in Greece it's not entirely surprising that he didn't know who Kidd was unless he was following the NBA from an early age. Hell most of us were just kids when Kidd turned pro. I watched Kidd play when he was a high school junior in the SF pro am. I was sitting in the second row at old Kezar gym. I was like - who the hell is this kid schooling Tim Hardaway and Mitch Richmond out there? I'm old as dirt.

The Timberwolves have turned on Thibs. lmao I was not expecting Sam Mitchell to be a better coach than him, but it is an outcome that I appreciate. e: for context, from my friend quote:So KAT air balled a 3, Thibs immediately called up Bjelica and KAT yelled something like, "that's bullshit tom" and then the camera went to a disgusted thibs they are currently down double digits to the 76ers
