I eyeroll as hard at "character concerns" as anybody but when you are getting suspended for too many technicals before the All-Star Break, it might be time for some introspection

Jota posted:At least your autism is consistent with when you used to think Tyson Chandler was an elite offensive player. Peak Tyson Chandler was a great offensive player. What he did was limited but he was way better at it than anyone else in the league. Being the best pick and roll finisher in the league is really valuable and the threat of him as a roll man opened things up for other players too. He also hit his free throws at a high rate, which was really underrated. MourningView fucked around with this message at 07:31 on Feb 7, 2017 |

Zogo posted:I've watched the last two Cavaliers games and they need defense so desperately. LBJ is out there killing himself because they can't hold a lead. Barely beat the Wizards and Knicks. The Wizards are good now. See this is what happens if I don't do power rankings. xbilkis posted:I eyeroll as hard at "character concerns" as anybody but when you are getting suspended for too many technicals before the All-Star Break, it might be time for some introspection Yeah this is my thing. I love when guys clown on coaches and reporters and Cousins does a lot of charity and is probably overall a good person. But drat all the cheap shots and whining and legit silly techs…man it's just old. loving relax, Boogie. Rick fucked around with this message at 08:15 on Feb 7, 2017 |

His usage was also under 15% like every single year in his career except for one and he had a negative OBPM for like 2/3 of his career. He was good in his specific role and in no other way. But Zogo could never factor in his inability to create his own shot or his low usage when talking about his offensive ability. Also he's a career 65% free throw shooter. Not awful but not incredible.

I'll concede Chandler and Gobert were both good offensive players, but they create very little for themselves and in general aren't using a lot of offensive possessions. Being the leader in NP for centers is pretty good though.

I'm in France for 10 days, so quick NBA report. Tony Parker is still everywhere, the dude is still a national hero. I saw one Joachim Noah advert but it looked old. No Rudy Gobert anywhere so far. I'll update as I know more.

Chandler's free throw shooting improved significantly when he went to the Charlotte and then the Mavs. He even developed a 12-15 foot jumper but rarely used it.

Two Tone Shoes posted:Dude you like Austin Rivers what's wrong with Buddy? *shrug* I didn't trust his shot coming into the draft and wish they had drafted Poeltl, instead. His shot has been suspect and what he brings can be easily reproduced by random D-League players. There's still hope that he can improve, but unless he can start to create his own/others' shots, he's a smaller, less accurate Korver.

Yeah, playing the Wizards is very different from playing the trash level D-League Knicks. Washington got something going with Wall/healthy Beal/"I'm finally good" Otto Porter. That game was very fun to watch.

Panzeh posted:Chandler's free throw shooting improved significantly when he went to the Charlotte and then the Mavs. He even developed a 12-15 foot jumper but rarely used it. Yeah at his peak he was more like a 70% foul shooter which is really good for a center and meant they never had to worry about taking him off the floor for fear that he'd get hacked and sent to the line

No one should ever sign Lance Stephenson, but the Wolves could probably use a player like him with Lavine dropping.

I love how sports writers are straight up manufacturing stories at this point. Like usually at some point there is some microcosm of truth behind stuff. But there is literally 0 chance that Lebron things that Melo is better than Love at this point and that they should trade for Melo. Like, quite literally 0 percent.This is the smartest basketball player in the history of the game.

Lance is still only 26. He's a sneaky candidate to have played for 1/3 of the league before he retires.
