    Jock has been great.

    If he really wanted this, you'd see him working on ball handling pre-game rather than throwing up half court grannies.

    Ben Simmons. But I agree that DA is overpaid.

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Saturday game thread 4-29-2023- Game 1

    Ayton provides substantially less positive value to winning than Booker. A bad play from Ayton nullifies a much larger proportion of his positive value. This principle determines how much "leash" someone gets in many facets of life.

    How would not re-signing Cam J help with rebounding, toughness, and gaining another pg?

    Playoffs: Suns @ Clippers Saturday game thread 4-22-2023 - Game 4

    I agree that it's pretty reflective at the top. However, after the top 20 or so it gets progressively more funky imo, especially when it comes to bigs. The problem with Hollinger's method is instead of modeling a metric to determine player impact, he took the most impactful players to model...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Clippers Saturday game thread 4-22-2023 - Game 4

    PER is notoriously generous to big men, which is why it has Clint Capela having a higher player efficiency rating than Devin Booker this season. Here is an article ranking the best all-in-one metrics to judge players by according to a survey of NBA executives. The top 3 were DPM, EPM, and...

    The "what went wrong" thread. Darksiders come on in.

    We suffered a historic playoffs collapse last year as the 1 seed. Mavs suffered a historic playoffs collapse in 2007 when they lost to an 8 seed as the 1 seed. Mavs won the championship in 2011 as the 3 seed.

    Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers 2023 Playoff Thread

    The next step in Mikal's development will be demanding the ball in the fourth and punishing a double team. If he can do that, he'll be one of the truly elite players in this league.

    Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers 2023 Playoff Thread

    Nets coach pulled the starters with 4:27 left in the 4th, down by 16. Seemed kind of early to wave the white flag.

    Fun watching the twins battle the Sixers. Halftime, Mikal with 23 points on 10-16 shooting. Cam with 10 points on 4-5 shooting.

    Mikal smokes Harden for the dunk.

    You say this was our biggest problem. I say that was our biggest problem. It doesn't really matter. What matters is our lack of big man depth for the purpose of defending Giannis was a big problem, and it is possible that having Dario could have made a difference. Your response here...

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    Some issues I have with some of your previous arguments: Our biggest problem in the Finals against the Bucks was our lack of big man depth to use in defending Giannis. Since Dario is a big man, it is reasonable to conclude that having him could have helped our problem. It seemed like your...

    Ok. We didn't underutilize him. He changed his mindset.

    You make a point. I was considering Payne but didn't want to copy you lol.

    These two statements are not the same.

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    My original point today was that it's now apparent he was underutilized here. He's scoring on elite efficiency so I would argue these are not empty stats. Did he really have more pressure on him in the middle of our hospital unit run when nobody expected him to be the number one, as opposed to...

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    Hoop Head, this post is petty. Brooklyn vs here, Mikal is averaging 18.2 vs 13.6 fga/g. He is averaging 6.6 vs 4.7 3pa/g, and yes, he is averaging 6.1 vs 2.8 fta/g. But what's really remarkable are the moves he is employing to get these shots off and the efficiency with which he is making...

    You didn't seem to know earlier today that Mikal has largely been attacking the mid range in Brooklyn. How can you comment on what he is showing on the court there?

    Ayton, Okogie, Shamet. I'm dying to know the answers. When do we get them?

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    Ok. I would disagree that he has shown flashes of everything he's showing in Brooklyn. I cannot recall ever seeing him do some of the things he is doing now. I would disagree that he was inconsistent while he was here. He was pretty consistent in everything he did. I cannot definitively...
