Even Cauley-Stein was forced to Lean Back





It's plays like that, that are frustrating when he goes to the rim without that aggressiveness. He'll settle for layups or if he thinks contact is coming, play to that instead of jumping through that. He's too good an athlete not to always be putting the pressure on the defense with drives like that.

So Mudiay hit a half court game winner with no one in the stands . :dame:

I know they were playing the sixers but :comeon:

They've got the lowest attendance in the league. The team probably gets the least amount of national coverage as well.

No team matters in Denver outside of the Broncos, especially if the team isn't gonna make the playoffs. The year round talk on sports radio is the Broncos.

I don't even think Blake will be close to prime time. Dudes coming in rusty against someone like the Rockets in the playoffs. CP0 needs this"Brotherhood" team together more than anyone
Cp3 needs more help
He's gonna be out of gas once the playoffs start. Blake might not come back this season, and Doc just traded away two players that could've really helped us in the postseason:francis:

I'm assume ya talking about this play. :merchant: where breh took off from; I didn't realize how far he jumped off two feet when i saw it last night. It's little baffling a nicca that 6'8 7 ft wingspan with 40 plus vert doesnt do this more often.

Wiggins is a good coaching staff away from being Kawhi Leonard :patrice:

Dude has a ton of ability...it just seems he doesn't really...know how to play basketball...:patrice:

Him and town...possibly Simmons...

Need to make sure no Spurs front office or assistants go to the wolves anytime in the next 3 years...:patrice:

:deadrose: @ CJ. I remember Austin's jumper was wet in HS and he was supposed to be a poor man's Steph. Too bad CJ took that lane, Austin's D is solid tho, he is pretty quick.

One of the weaknesses of plus minus is it sometimes gets diluted when the team goes on a big run and just gets really hot while the player is in the game or the opposite when the opposing team gets hot. So i think it's important to look at players who consistently game to game have a positive plus minus.
Basketball-reference.com has a plus minus database going back to 2001. The record for most games in a season with a +/- of at least +1 is 63.
LeBron had 63 in 08-09 and Curry tied it last year. This year Curr already has 62.

If you expand that to include the playoffs Curry last year had 78 such games and Lamar Kardashian ties him for the "all time" lead during his 08-09 campaign. Damn those laker teams were good.

Anyway here is the full list
