I didn't even realize Cavs lacked Jarrett Allen. It's a testament to how good the team is that they even made it close and once Mitchell/Garland learn how to maximize each other's talents they will be unstoppable. Garland can't seem to figure out how to hit shots when Mitchell is on the floor

Shopping Embiid would be in the best interest of the Sixers, but obviously you can’t do that in the modern nba. you can’t win a chip playing like Embiid im sorry. refs won’t allow it.

if you think Embiid is going to get 24 FTs in a playoff game you haven’t been paying attention.

Oh yeah 76ers would be in a great position to win with 4 guards: Maxey/Harden/Hield/Halliburton and no draft picks. lol

you are ignoring Turner. also why would you have no picks? also you’d trade harden your hypothetical is a mess

point is, nba referees will not allow a team who’s best player is a post up center to win a championship. the only thing worse would be having a guard who is reliant on FTs as the primary scorer. they’ll swallow the whistle and allow the Celtics to grab your arm on every play. if a chip is the goal you trade Embiid. but maybe it’s about the journey.

the thing about Embiid and Giannis is true, they are getting fouled on pretty much every play. Jokic would be in this category too but he really doesn’t do post moves or anything.

are we describing passes to the perimeter as post moves now? jokic isn’t going to the line for those.

you jokic fans are absurd. he rarely plays with his back to the basket. 90 percent of his possessions are passes from the corner of the key or layups.

I know that defending him means ignoring the world that you can observe with your eyes and describe with your words in favor of a computational analysis that totally says he had the best season of all time last year, but come on.

fart simpson posted:are these made up stats? offensive rating is a decent all-in-one efficiency metric (so it gives high scores to low-volume bigs). defensive rating has major issues and should basically be ignored. ast/TO really needs to be combined with knowing how many assists or it's kinda useless. Hauser has 8:1 ratio because he literally has a total of eight assists and one turnover. not per game, total. looking him up on bbr (i don't watch celtic games) he's playing 75% of his minutes at PF, he has a sky-high TS% at 15% usage and 15mpg. 7/8 of his two-point field goals (again, not per game, total) are assisted, and every one of his 26 3-point field goals. so, combining all this info, not one stat shows "this guy is amazing" or "this guy sucks." you can figure out his profile, that of an up-and-coming stretch 4 who's been knocking down his 3s at an excellent rate and that the celtics don't ask to do too much as far as creation or playmaking.

kingcobweb posted:lmfao just say you don't watch the nuggets dude it's ok I don’t think you are being genuine here. NBA may count a post up attempt as any time you back your defender down in the post, but my point is that Jokic isn’t trying to score off the post up, which is where the FT attempt is coming from, he’s passing out of them.

but idk maybe the stat gods don’t delineate what you do with a post up, because that doesn’t matter at all right? they’re all equal. no need to think about it.

modern high usage big play is about the turnaround jumper and the hook. jokic, ayton, kat, etc. i think it's an open question if you want your center occupying a max contract slot but it is what it is.
