Well actually Jabari announced it during the game, I wonder if he just made up a date on the spot and the team just said fukk it we'll roll with it :skip:

The Dwight Howard post up is the bane of my existence. Somehow he gets damn near 7 post up possessions a game and only scores 0.76 points per possession (that would put him in the 26th percentile league wide). At some point there has to be a more valuable way to use these possessions than this.

It makes you wonder do teams even give a shyt about analytics or actually paying attention to what's going on. How does anyone think this is effective?
Have you seen our offense without him or Kemba? :stopitslime:

The funny thing is in the kobe hate threads people state that Dwight was an offensive monster :laff:

I see why all these "10 Day" contract PG's fail in the league.

Most times, it's the same pattern with these dudes.

First week, they come in humble, looking for teammates, and passing the ball.

After 5-6 games, they start chucking, trying to make a name for themselves.

Lose contract, wash, rinse, repeat....


Isaiah Canaan I'm looking at you:ufdup:

Yeah I know the bench is bad but watching them post up Dwight over and over is just :scust:
He had 18/8 in the first half :yeshrug: Dwight gets his but it only takes one minor adjustment with a team defensive effort and he's neutralized for the rest of the night.

Kemba gave up trying to play point guard for the past month too.

That leaves Batum :scust:

TLC needs to just stay on the perimeter.. if you’re not dunking against the Bucks it’s an easy block.
