Tucker reminds me of a guy that I played against at a fitness center like a year or two ago. Absolutely hated to play against him even though I had a big length advantage over him and blocked him once. Didn't mean shyt to him he just kept backing me down and made me pick up my dribble a handful of times in the halfcourt :damn:

He had no discernable offensive skills, he was just short (and by short I mean SHORT, like under 5'8") and really stocky and could pretty much only play bully-ball because of it, but he just worked and bothered you without getting in the way of his teammates :wow: also helped that his hands were impeccable defensively. Tucker is like the NBA version of that guy (I'm sure you guys have played a guy like that in your lives too)
I HATE players like this :wow:
Hustling all hard and shyt, diving for loose balls

Playing actual defense

:beli:

Kat swears he's a PG. Get ricky the ball
I missed the game, but wit the offense they run, he ONLY touches the ball at the top of the key to set a pick and hand it off. nikka is still shooting 80% from back to basket possessions, but NEVER gets the ball down there. shyt is aggrivating as hell. I don't blame him for driving from the top, he is fast as fick for a 5. Sam Mitchell is pushing the boundaries of being the WOAT coach. nikka is terrible at subs and play calling. He is a great verbal motivator though. He is taylor made for an assistant coach position.

His man crush on vets is :scust:. He will blow games thinking that b ball IQ will play a bigger role than talent and ability.

HE LITERALLY STARTS 2 nikkaS THAT AVERAGE LESS THAN 4ppg CAUSE THEY ARE VETS :mindblown:

Towns doesn't have a legit offensive touch in the last 4 minutes or so.
:mindblown:

He doesn't get the ball in the last 4 minutes. He barely touches it all game. Shooting the % he is shooting from the field, he should get more than 10 shots per game, and should not be benched for 12 minute stretches.

I think Towns is the best rookie I've seen since Duncan. Crazy how good he already is.
I been saying that since the end of the season of the NCAA before the tournament last year. Unfortunately I was in the county jail during that time, so there is no proof lol.

I told nikkas on here once I got out of jail (April 2nd, did 84 days) dude is like a combo of Duncan and David Robinson (cause of his jumper and his speed when he attacks from the triple threat). nikka is great on both ends. I wanna slap the shyt outta Sam Mitchell for not playing him more and not running plays for him

Sabo>Wardell

:manny:

Curry gunning(effectively) but Sabo still getting crazy assists.

Curry assists have plummeted cuz he shooting so much(he is making so it don't matter)

You'll never hear em say Curry not a PG though
Curry is a true of though. One thing I hate about Bron and Russ is that they are part of the dribble, dribble, dribble, class of passers. They don't run an offense cause they don't do shyt off the ball. They constantly look for the assist instead of just running an offense and sometimes just getting rid of the ball.

It's kinda hard to explain, but I'll try. What Bron and Russ does is eat up a lot of clock looking to make a play. Let's say they run a high p&r, once they go around that pick, they will hold the ball (drib, drib, drib) if nobody is open for a score. Curry on the other hand will just get rid of it to whoever can receive the pass if he can't score. This gives the team time to make more passes, and Curry can even get it back on a cut or a spot up.

Not saying what Bron and Sabo does is bad, both of them nikkas dominate. But offenses become very stagnant with that style and teams EASILY stop that shyt in the playoffs. The proof is in the pudding. As great as Miami was, they should of NEVER had problems scoring, but that shyt Bron does can create problems, especially if dudes are not hitting their shots. Same for ONCE. You will not beat the Sparse or Warriors like that imo. We will see though

Curry could dribble out the shot clock, drive and kick all night if he wanted to but that would halve the effectiveness of their offense. Like the Spurs the PG is never going to average an extremely high number of assists in that system.

That said, he's definitely been playing a lot more selfish this year but at this point the opposition breathes a sigh of relief when anyone other than Steph Curry takes a shot regardless of the distance. He's scoring at an even better rate than 13/14 KD or prime MJ.

God dammit Prince got abused down the stretch. Payton and Fournier took turns getting him switched onto them then doing what they wanted offensively :beli:

I just really cant believe Shabazz cant offer 70% of Prince on defense while offering 100% more on offense :snoop:

Make some shots Rick :to:

Wiggins and KAT owning the stretch though is just :wow: Really nice to see Wiggins drive to the hoop on that last basket in the 4th instead of settling for a jumper. He goes up so quick and gets that shoulder in you off that spin move that it creates so much contact and doesnt let his defender meet him in the air

Dirk in his 18th season still playing at an all star level. Crazy

Gonna pass up Shaq soon on the all time list and he's got an outside shot at Wilt if he decides to continue playing. Not sure why he wouldn't with the way he's shooting right now
