Nuggets at Kings

Nuggets - Big Eastern European passer played
Kings - Big Eastern European passer didn't play

Result: Nuggets come back down 20 to win

We need to bring back the USSR and Yugoslavia to finally beat the U.S. at Olympic basketball again

Seems like every team is playing a back to back tomorrow. Is this normal after Christmas? With COVID in the mix I'm expecting record numbers of players to be out after that

why does embiid take so many 3s

Yossarian-22
Oct 26, 2014

He shoots nearly 35% on 3s which isn't bad. If he drove to the basket every time to draw fouls he would be the new Greg Oden in the modern NBA

Should be noted that Embiid is shooting a higher percentage on 3s than Banchero, Lebron, Trae, and even the GOAT Jokic himself

Trae has gotta be one of the worst of the "tiny guys who shoot from distance" at actually doing that. Career 35% shooter. That's a point or two above the league average. Not bad for a volume guy by any means but he feels overhyped.

I'm adding him to my list of fake sharpshooters, right next to Jae Crowder.

Yossarian-22
Oct 26, 2014

I'll give Trae the benefit of the doubt and assume he's having a down year in efficiency like Lillard did last year, but he's definitely overrated as a shooter on top of being one of the absolute worst defenders in the NBA. His assists/TOs are worse too. Losing Gallinari and Huerter has hurt the Hawks' offense

workshopping a take that kristaps porzingis is currently better than deandre ayton or at least more useful, because porzingis has shed himself of the need to exercise his ego by showing off his unicorn skills and accepted his role as a wily big man who uses his scottie pippen arms to cover defensive gaps.

deandre ayton believes he is a unicorn, he thinks he's anthony davis. he might be, but he won't be that for phoenix.

Ayton honestly kind of sucks this year so this tracks. Dude absolutely cannot shoot from anywhere. Not even sure if he's a top ten center when you have lockdown bigs like Mitch Robinson, Claxton, Adams, Jarrett Allen, and Brook Lopez on top of the foreign-born offensive juggernauts (Jokic/Embiid/Sabonis/Porzingis)

Warriors clinging to .500 with Wiggins and Curry out. Wiggs apparently was ready to come back from his injury then got sick on top of that. And they're still sitting Klay on B2B games even when he's running hot, which is rare enough to start with these days.

Please get well soon Steph, these four-minute scoring droughts are bad for my health.
