Hanlan's shot release reminds me of Curry's. Not saying they are the same player.
Just is a great benefit to have a quick release when your a good shooter and scorer.
I really hope they trade Trey so we just have Hanlan and Cotton.
Hurts me to say that as a Michigan fan and someone who has been...
Favors - Booker - Lyles
Gobert - Favors
Favors is the back up center. Which opens up more minutes at the 4 positions.
Depending on how Lyles does this year will determine if Booker is here next year.
There is no log jam when Booker only has 1 year on his contract and Lyles is 19.
It's...
Stephen Curry's was the exact same player the year before. His stats were identical.
They had almost the exact same players the year before.
I give Steve Kerr the most credit. Without Kerr no way they make it to the finals. He changed the way that team played. Way more ball movement when he...
Odom never was a Center. Odom has always been a swing player in a PF's body. His handle was amazing for someone his size. His shot sucked for years.
The comparison doesn't make sense.
If Channing Frye and Boris Diaw had a baby it would be Trey Lyles.
Channing frye shot 3 out 17 his senior year.
%17
Lyles is much younger coming in.
He is actually more agile then Frye was coming out.
Better laterally.
And he can pass.
They are both similar in height and weight.
Both of their shots are quick and smooth.
When he shoots he reminds me of Channing Frye.
His Agility is much better though. Someone said Odom. I don't think he is that agile. And his handed isn't as good.
His passing reminds me of Diaw though.
One of the biggest needs on defense right now is guarding the pick and roll. Lyles has that agility to defend the pick and roll. Having 3 long bigs who can guard faster players while staying long is the key to a great defense.
Lyles offensive game will take time. His release is quick and...
Athletically going up and down are the tests that everyone focuses on. Which is really dumb.
You spend more time using your agility and side to side movements then up and down.
Proper positioning can fix any lack of up and down movement.
What makes Gobert incredible is his ability to move his...
The key with Z-Bo and Gasol is that they both can hit the mid range shot. So they both spread the court for each other.
Favors and Gobert are better on defense as Z-Bo isn't a good defender, Gasol just makes him look decent. Offensively we have a long way to go. Favors I think can be...
No wing player or PG's that can't shoot.
We have our version of the twin towers.
We need spacing.
I don't like ball dominate point guards that think they are the only playmaker.
Even Stocktom would go set picks and be on the roll.
I think one of the best defensive ratings is opponent field goal percentages. Pace plays a huge part in points per game.
Field goal percentage is a better metric. Never the whole story but it's a large chunk. Opponents Offensive rebounds is huge too...
If we are keeping Booker as our backup 4 then our Backup center has to be able to hit the mid range shot consistently.
We can't have 4 bigs that can't shoot.
Favors is decent but not a threat yet.
Lee only has 1 more year left. Lee is still a decent player. I think his scoring could help the bench also.
We get
Lee, Barnes and their 30th pick.
We give them the 12th pick and Trey Burke and contract fillers and maybe some 2nd round picks.
I am all for trading Trey and bringing Neto over. I am a Michigan fan and Trey has been horrible. I thought he would be a better playmaker then this and a better shooter and a better decision maker. He has not improved at all in his 2 years. Very bad sign.
Time to trade him as a salary...
