>Pretend this is the image of Oden, Aldridge, and Roy together on the bench< Every minute, LaMarcus? Edit gently caress, I missed the mark and made myself sad. I really loved Brandon Roy in a way his knees never did.

Metapod posted:Pretty much this he's been a top 2 guard this year it depends on how you feel about team success being weighted into the award MVP should account for team success to a larger degree, it's mostly a narrative award and that's fine. All-NBA (which is larger pool and has contract impacts) should really be more focused on the player, imo. I know realistically people just do things for whatever arbitrary reason and they'll justify their favorites regardless, but thats how I'll do it whenever the NBA gets around to giving us all here our votes. Dejan Bimble posted:i honestly don't think it's an issue anymore with NIL, g-league and OTE. There are tons of ways to compensate top prospects. Vets don't need more young players taking money, and teams don't want guys who will never possibly contribute positively outside of a lebron situation Yeah I agree. I just don't see the burning motivation from either side. I don't think 18 year olds are any more likely to be busts, but I do think it is a bigger investment in development and time. I think a situation where you can draft an 18 year old but that first year is more of a 2-way thing and doesn't count towards the 4 year rookie contract might work but I don't see either side tipping the barrel over this.

How do y'all feel about Jimmy Butler, this year? And does Lauri make the third team? And if not, who takes his place?

Someone compared Jimmy to Jaylen and they have similar stats. But I feel like Jaylen should be considered because he's not the #1 option but performs as well as other guys who are. Just my unbiased opinion.

Lockback posted:… What about the fact that 18 year olds are adults when it comes to everything else in this country? It’s an arbitrary restriction only designed to help out corrupt NCAA programs. Just because 18 year olds will be eligible doesn’t mean that they’re going to get drafted. They still have to be good enough. It’s a dumb rule

I know people will say "who's better this year": Jaylen is the #2 option on one of the 2 best teams in the same conference and league. all star. Butler is #1 option on a 7-8 seed with no major accomplishments to note other than blocking booker in a game. I think people punish good players for being on good teams.

If i had to bet I would've said the Heat suck rear end without Butler but I looked it up and they're 8-8 without him. That statmuse site is really good for that, you can just type what you want in the search bar and it'll give you the results. indiana pacers record without tyrese haliburton this season The Indiana Pacers are 5-16 without Tyrese Haliburton this season. 76ers record without joel embiid this season The Philadelphia 76ers have a 9-5 record without Joel Embiid this season. denver nuggets record without nikola jokic this season The Denver Nuggets have a 3-6 record without Nikola Jokic this season. blazers record without lillard this season The Portland Trail Blazers have a record of 5-13 without Damian Lillard this season. warriors record without steph curry this season The Golden State Warriors have a record of 14-12 without Stephen Curry this season. lakers record without lebron this season The Los Angeles Lakers have a 13-14 record without LeBron James this season.

Kibner posted:I don't think he foul hunts. Agreed. Shai gets fouled because he's clever/quick/strong and he surprises his man by being past them unexpectedly. Like just watch him and watch Austin Reaves and you can see the difference between someone hunting fouls and someone getting fouled.

fart simpson posted:ok. why? To give a general idea of how good or bad someone is scoring and also highlight the best and worst ever. The worst scorers have more FGAs than points. In 1948 Joe Fulks shot 26% from the field while taking thousands of shots. The worst scoring season ever. This year Jokic is shooting 68% from the 2P range and has scored many points. One of the best scoring seasons ever. Stagger_Lee posted:Yeah, I'm not confused about what True Shooting does. But just multiplying it by points would be a much stranger result than using the adjusted shooting numbers from br. Multiplying those two together doesn't do very much. The correlation between (TS% * PTS) and points alone is virtually identical.

Stagger_Lee posted:I think NP without adjusting as grown a little bit silly in the way that gives players positive credit for anything above 1 point per possession, which is significantly below the rate of even the worst teams. But it's not a really big deal, the people on the top of the list are still people who are finishing the most very good plays. They both have their purposes. Best/worst scoring (in a vacuum): code:
