Poole is just incredible. Torched the Nuggets so many times both in the interior and from distance and made smart plays even when he was running red hot. Didn't look like a liability on defense either. Wild to see how far he's come from his rookie season as the #28 pick two years ago.

if you had a bad team that only went 20-62 or something like that, then signed three superstars each worth 20 win shares. that team should simply become an 80 win team. has anyone ever tried this?

euph double vindicated on the relative value of both nikola jokic and draymond green whoda thunk.

i admit a few days ago i was laughing at the idea draymond deserved mvp consideration. draymond deserved the all-star starting spot, but he's been already and he's got other irons in the fire with his TNT gig. passing the spot to the younger 2-way rebounder who deserved to be rewarded for taking the covid booster and shoring up forwards for when the vet has to sit, that's savvy.

klay thompson being able to switch on to 4s and 5s defensively gives the small lineup it's spice, but the consensus for nearly a decade now is that green is the field general calling the switches. communication is the most concrete form of positive intangible basketball quality that stats don't pick up and draymond green never shuts up.

Euph has some crazy opinions but Draymond being more valuable than Steph isn't one of them. GS needs all of their options in order to work though, they all have their roles and the system only works with all of the pieces in place. It's silly to me to talk about which piece of the Dubs are most valuable because the entirety of their game is built around the team and while some have more vital roles than others they have to have them all. If there's a single person you have to cite as key to their success it's Kerr for understanding how to fit both reclamation projects and rookies into the system and still have it work.

Honestly it's fine by me because watching team ball like that is much more entertaining than watching one guy dragging the whole team along.

win shares are not actually a good stat that works like that

I mean players are absolutely worth wins but win share is only vaguely related to that

it’s kind of how like GDP does not actually measure economic output tho it’s sort of related
