Random NBA Observations 2016 - 2017

[Flight]

Dieng really seems lost out there sometimes.

Finessed 16 mill off of Zach, Andrew and KAT

 

[funkee]

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Six blocks for Durant.

dunn needs to do some yoga, he has terrible feet/balance. I see him fumble over himeself with or without the ball a few times a game. rush looks content to just be there and shoot the occasional 3. and aldrich i can't say anymore about b/c it'll piss me off. I'm not sure what hill is there for if he's not gonna get some minutes to at least bang and rebound.

Hill's a decent big man, especially as a backup. He's a terrific rebounder and he can bang in mid-range jumpers too. No clue why he isn't getting more minutes in Minny. He can play.

Celtics.

Rebounding/defense has been a problem for them this season, that move only makes them worse in that department.


Just checked Avery's stats - this nikka is 6'2" and he's leading the team with 8 rebounds a game.

You're the only one dumb enough to rate Okafor.


bytch constantly about Randle yet try to prop Okafor on some pedestal acting as if he's anything but a liability right now.

Celtics would be much better off with Noel than Okafor.

Noel, then.

Okafor would help their offense, give them better floor balance and I think being on a veteran team would help him a lot defensively.

I'll also add that Noel's paint defensive field goal percentage allowed isn't much better than Okafor's.

Edit: actually, it's worse.

Are we talking about Okafor's blackhole offense where he never sees anyone around him? Are we talking about the Okafor that's horrible defensively because of his lack of lateral quickness more than anything? Can you explain how a veteran team would make a horrendous defender a lot better? Unless of course you mean they would be better at hiding him, but they've already been bad enough this year as it is. Lets not forget the Okafor turned a top 10 defense into one of the worst defenses in the league last year.

Have you ever looked at who Okafor's teammates are?

Do you really think Boston is better with Amir Johnson as its starting center than it would be with Okafor?

The same teammates Embiid has? Pretty sure a lot of his teammates last year were also the same ones they had the year prior(except MCW) when they had a top 10 defensive rating that plummeted with Okafor out there.

Are Celtics trading Amir Johnson for Okafor or Avery Bradley for Okafor? Is Okafor anywhere close to the value of Avery Bradley(no he's not).
