This ain't gonna end well

McDonough has to trade him this summer. Even if they have to include a pick to get a deal done.

 

[LinusCaldwell]

Warriors in a must sweep position to get that much needed rest

^ anyone who reads that, follows any of those teams and has a different take let me know. Glad to get some constructive criticism to make my analysis/writing better going forward, especially on teams that I don't watch as frequently as others i.e Charlotte, Atlanta

Are you retarded? You have 2 post on this very fukking page saying Danny Green is worse than Dion Waiters.

Why do people act like advanced stats are some mythical numbers that we somehow discovered in a secret box? They are stats just like the simple stats you use such as Fg%, PPG, and rpg. I didn't need shyt to know who's better between Danny Green and Dion fukking Waiters, you apparently do by even thinking Green is comparable to Waiters as a player.

That isn't how Drtg works or the whole team would be together. Which isn't the case, which is why Parker is nowhere near the rest of the starting 5. Pacers only have 2 in the top 20 and they are the 3rd best defense in the league. Hawks(2nd best defense) have 5 in the top 20 and Teague isn't one of them.

Danny Green has been posting great defensive numbers every year since 2014, this isn't new or a one time thing.

2016 Danny Green Drtg On and Off
On = 97 Drtg
Offf = 100 Drtg

You legit don't know what these advanced stats mean or how they are calculated

I got Pistons in 6
Raptors in 6
Hornets in 7
Hawks in 7

Warriors in 5
Spurs in 4
Thunder in 5
Clippers in 7

Those 3,4,5, 6 match ups in the east are really tough to gauge. Maybe if I do a deep dive into match ups I'll do better but of the top of my head that's how I got it.

 

[AJtheOne]

Young Kobe getting into it with Gary Payton. And hitting a clutch 3 in the playoffs



Interview, he speaks on the fight with Shaq

I can't decide between the Hawks/Celtics series
Atlanta looked pretty good against them in the regular season and they have the experience to pull it off, plus they've played better recently.
But at the same time I think the Key to stopping Atlanta is good defense on Horford and Millsap pick and pops. Good transition D and forcing turnovers because they pass so much. The Celtics should be able to do all that stuff. So I'm sort of leaning towards Boston actually but I don't know it's close.

 

[labelplant]

For Boston on offense it will be important to move the ball well against the traps without turning it over and not getting stagnant but at the same time not allowing Atlanta to get out in transition. Isaiah is really gonna have to be more of a true PG, this is his series to win/lose along with the Celtics bigs on the other end.

3-6 in the east gonna be fun to watch I love new matchups

shyt Indy might fukk around and get Tor shook.
