Random NBA Observations 2016 - 2017

But it clearly was. No reason the Warriors should get free passes and gifts from the refs while they fukk over the star player at home. Ridiculous

Let me guess.. the two hands on the back should have been called?? Because the strip of the ball was clean.

Man I feel bad for John Wall anytime I go to a Wizards game. Home crowd is awful

I haven't been paying attention, Detroit has the 2nd best defense in the league when did that happen?

i think a mismatch stats would be more impressive..

like what team mismatches the other teams the most... i think defense is too subjective of who you play.. you might have the best defense or top 5 and exist round 1 because the other team mismatches you ..I.e Spurs vs Clips 2 years ago.

The Pistons can switch almost everything on defense and KCP is a great defender, which is why it makes sense for them to be top 5, but Drummond has been a mediocre rim protector which is why it's surprising. Having an anchor that isn't a good rim protector usually leads to not being top 5.

Raptors have the GOAT offense all time...and with one of the lowest assist totals

better than the Warriors,better than the showtime Lakers or 80s Celtics and better than MJ Bulls...

lettuce sit with our legs crossed punjabi style and talk about it breh....

Other than rim protection (which is very important for a 5), I think Drummond does a great job on D

which is why i said mismatch...

at the end of the day having a terrible mistmatch can lead to an exploit and a loss..If the other team has the exploit for it...

And in the end, the Cavs (if you even make it to them) will wash you cause your offense isn't sustainable in the playoffs

and its their undoing... either the ISO ball wins or ISO fails.. no alternative..

Damn brehs.....Kat is dead fkin last in DRPM among centers not just dead last by a little. Is it because he's just playing out of position or what?

He's great on switches, one of the few real big men that can get out and defend wing guys on the perimeter, he's been a bit disappointing this year cause I look at JoJo and my heart skips a beat

He's out of position, he shouldn't be playing C, that picture of him and Ben Simmons together says all you need to know about his prospects of defending Cs.


Nerlens for LaVine would make sense for both teams

Yeah, it makes no sense how good he's on switches and on the perimeter for a guy his size He's also great for denying the opposing team 2nd chances as well

But yeah Embiid is just special

shyt sign me up. Would give us a dynamite wing player and allow us to toss Henderson in the . I got a feeling they would ask for Covington as well tho and that's a no go...second best DPM among small forwards...(Giannis first ).
