Point Giannis and the wierd Bucks, point Harden and wierd Rockets, the hilarious Bulls, the hilarious Knicks, the GSW death machine, more LeBron, Aaron Gordon possibly dunking even more, Stephens maybe taking the Celtics to the next level, Process Embiid, and just entertaining pass and move basketball from lots of teams.

Bashez posted:Bogut is a much better defender than Zaza. I think he's also a better screener and distributor than Zaza. This is a pretty big downgrade for them. I think their smartest move was to lose Iguodala instead of Bogut but they probably couldn't do that for "culture" reasons with Bogut's outspoken views, non religiosity and Iggy's rapport. This is all logical, but also remember that Bogut gets hurt a lot. I can see a certain logic in forcing themselves to adapt to no Bogut, rather than becoming dependent on an injury prone player.

Spacebump posted:Didn't they never win a game in the Finals after Bogut went down? Seems like an important piece of the puzzle. I'm not saying they were right, I'm saying I can see how they arrived at the conclusion they did.

Hand Row posted:The rest of the team is blah or each player has warts but Point Giannis really is LeBron and does it all. Not having Middleton really sucks but it has really forced Giannis to carry the team in a good way. I knew there was someone missing from that list. Parker seems like he's taking the necessary step up. Is his d still bad?

Unless they give up a truly stupid package, buying 6 months of Millsap is almost certainly a better use of the Kings resources that whatever other dumb poo poo they'd use them for.

We should adopt the idea of the asg being an 8 team 3on3 competition. Top 8 vote getters are the captains, and they pick the teams live as the first event of the festivities. All the players a stand in a ring on the court playground style with the captains standing evenly spaced on the edge of the court. Each captain has small section of handpicked fans behind them. Each player obviously gets to choose their music clip and highlight reel for whenever they get picked and get 20s to bound around the court and high five their captain/trash talk other captains/fans. All the while, the captains social media feeds about who they're going to pick and whatever smack they've been talking scrolls on the jumbotrons. It's a snake draft with the first round going in order of who got the most votes. The first interview is with the player who gets picked last asking him how he feels. Also it's 10 minute full court 3on3, leading to more dunks (4th coolest thing in basketball), more coast to coast dunks (3rd coolest thing) and more chase down blocks (2nd coolest). Any suggestions to increase the number of putback dunks (obviously the coolest thing) gratefully received. Maybe also each team can have a wildcard where they force the other team to sub in a celebrity for two minutes to allow Russ to endlessly dunk on Justin Bieber.

PostNouveau posted:Oh, huh. That's interesting. Never knew that. It is, but I kind of think it just illustrates that we don't know how to coach FTs properly, rather than they can't be coached. It seems kind of comparable to soccer and rugby penalties, where the teams who are good at it tend to practice the actual technique while acknowledging that it's different under pressure, and then also coach on the psychological approach, making sure that you're controlling yourself and are in the right state of mind to repeat your mechanics. Also similar to Steve Kerr (I think) who'd practise spot duty 3s by sitting chatting to his shooting coach for five minutes, then sprinting to a spot on the floor and taking a three.
