isn't half of the reason you'd take a low salary as the star player to free up salary cap for managers to get you enough help to win a ring? that seems more believable than just oh i like boston its great, love dunkin

defense is nice but the most important basketball stat is Getting Buckets as always

i dont know which person on the nuggets is responsible for this but they have held the grizzlies to less than 90 points up until the final two minutes which seems like an indication that their defense is pretty good

all the other players on the nuggets are more fun to watch than jokic. they got this kid named Bones that is always shooting goofy rear end 3s on terrible looks and sometimes he misses them and goes 1/12 in a game and sometimes he hits six in a row jamal murray was playing out of his mind yesterday too

kingcobweb posted:he's a pure streetball player, could probably be called for a carry every dribble, and by some metrics he's the worst defender in the entire NBA. he owns completely and he's my favorite player after jokic. i mostly like saying lets go bones every time he touches the ball

jokic has like 3 times as many points but AG is the mvp of this game

i like that jokic is objectively uninteresting to watch and has no style or grace but puts up insane numbers every single game he's in and also has a funny face

They have a +17.5 net rating with Fultz/Harris/Banchero/Wagner/Carter Jr. which is 2nd best for all lineups with more 100 minutes played https://www.nba.com/stats/lineups/advanced?dir=D&sort=MIN i dont know if he is any good but i like to both watch and say Bol Bol

one downside (among very many) of having so many loving regular season games is its impossible to tell if a team is good or not until they're trying to clinch playoff spots because they're all performing some advanced calculation each game for if they want to actually try to win or not

I didn't even put on the nuggets game until the 4th assuming it was going to be noncompetitive. kind of looks like jokic also assumed that and just didn't attempt any defense there was a moment with about 5 minutes left in the game where it got kind of close and then the spurs hit like 5 straight 3 point attempts, those boys just wanted it more

the most important stat is dunks the moneyball bullshit of the last 10 years strikes me as an attempt to be able to Solve another actually interesting problem with Computers and this is anathema to watching and enjoying a sports competition so you should be actively contemptful of it

if the nba didn't want individual late season games to be so meaningless that teams will arbitrarily decide not to play them maybe there shouldn't be 82 games with multiple back-to-backs in a season
