Papercut posted:He only had seasons that were comparable if you ignore every single advanced stat and several counting stats. Averaging 30/9/7 with 90%+ FT and 40+% from 3 is pretty comparable unless you're going to nerd out. And the most important thing? Larry Bird never blew 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals.

I don't mean to be snide, it's just that i've always thought his game is so workmanlike that he just kind of fades into the background until somebody like zach lowe points out that he does X unusually well Danny Chau wrote a good article last week. https://theringer.com/steven-adams-new-oklahoma-city-thunder-star-nba-436156b161b7#.pox8zcwan

Zogo posted:If you put 2016 Curry and his shooting into the 1980s NBA his team might go 80-2 and sportscasters, gov't agencies would be saying he was an alien or a USSR biogenetic experiment that escaped the lab. Until someone like Rick Mahorn-esque mofo crushed him into Bolivia. I'm also not sure how well he'd handle the hand checking that he doesn't have to deal with today.

Zogo posted:Checking would be relegated to irrelevance when he's launching 3P shots from 25-30 feet out. Nobody in the 1980s was close to doing anything like that. You're assuming he'd be allowed to get to that range to the same degree that he is today. He'd still be a great shooter, but that signature super side step move doesn't have the same effectiveness when refs allow a defender's hand to grab/push/guide.

Tae posted:I understand the 76ers and Dirk-less Mavs being super poo poo, but why are the Wizards winless? Isn't their team mostly healthy except for Mahimi? Gortat is a bit older, Beal is a shooter who isn't shooting well, Wall has played okay but isn't shooting well from distance and is turning over the ball 6+ times a game, Oubre hasn't taken the next step, Morris is soso. Oddly enough Otto Porter has played pretty well. Wall is my dark horse candidate to be traded in the upcoming offseason.

Spacebump posted:He was later quoted saying he probably would have resigned with Denver if they didn't trade him due to them being able to offer the most. Carmelo said a lot of things; a few years later he also said that he was never going to re-sign in Denver because everyone else on the team was expiring and he didn't want to be stuck rebuilding. Nirwad is right as far as I recall. He made a quiet, but very forceful push for NYC.

tanglewood1420 posted:What makes you say that Noel for Joseph thing is fake? It is known that Toronto has interest in Noel, that's been reported by several different guys over the last couple of months. It makes sense for Toronto to trade for him mid season too, since with Lowry opting out and certain to get the max and Pattterson and Sullinger both UFAs the only way they are going to be able to add bigman depth is if they're on the team and can be resigned. They won't be signing anyone in FA outside the midlevel. The source is Celtics reporters.
