I trust Joel "The Process" Embiid JoJo is also the only rookie averaging double digit points which seems kinda poor for everyone else

I was playing Let it Die so I couldn't exactly come and post about it but I was listening to the game on Wolves audio and 1) I couldn't believe they went down 26 to the Sixers 2) Less than 15 teams ever have come back from 26 or more down yet I wasn't remotely surprised when the Wolves came back on the Sixers 3) I'm 100% unsurprised the Wolves still lost though because at least from the audio call it sounded like they weren't covering anyone at all.

The fact that Ingram was number one on people's boards is so mind blowing. The lack of instant impact is why I thought a long term project like Bender should have gone so much higher. Hields struggle with NBA length/speed was predictable, and I think Dunn's ceiling as "Jrue Holiday but cooler and more handsome" isn't really impacted by struggling on a team that's just not working well.

That's why Blatt is a genius and staying in Europe until his Cavs deal is done. He can get paid by a Euro team and still get money from Cleveland.

He was thrown in the deep water in an awful situation. Stat peoples, does anyone track the lead swings over games? I would be interested in using that for some theories. I also think it could possibly be more informative than final score.

This probably isn't the raw data you want, but @EdKupfer posts all kinds of cool graphs on twitter and a lot of them have lead stats.

Oh this is exactly what I was looking for at least at the moment. I'll follow that dude. It's really depressing to look at that Lakers chart and realize they only won two games over that stretch despite having double digit leads often in the second quarter of games. Also, the Jazz chart is interesting because it confirms my belief that they rarely pull away from teams and just play almost everyone--no matter how talented--close.

Today I learned that in the 2009-2010 season Fabricio Oberto played 650 minutes over the course of 57 games (11MPG). In those 650 minutes, he had a TOV% of 36 loving percent. How is that possible?

straight up brolic posted:basically some of the successful teams in the league win games through doing things marginally better than their opponents every possession (the clippers starters do this when they are healthy). They draw more fouls, get more easy baskets, etc... over the course of the game this causes a close game to grow into a 4-9 point game, then into a blowout, with little back and forth. If you look at the Spurs chart, their blowout rate explodes and trail rates crater by the 4th quarter, despite being relatively close throughout the first half. Thanks, that's pretty cool.

On my phone so I'm not going back to quote but -Every time KAT takes a lovely three I want to throw something so I agree with Thibs and KAT needs to shut the gently caress up. -Zach is indeed very cool and good and I hope they let him in the three point contest as well as the dunk.
