Well the role you have when you play can affect advanced metrics. For example, Rob Covington is loved by RPM because he plays to his strengths. Exum basically is used as a change of pace guard who often gets to stand around and brick open perimeter shots. Also RPM still incorporates box score...
There are two types of people in this world:
GROUP A - Watch Exum blow by anyone (and everyone) to the rim, only to see him miss wide open layup/dunks - and conclude he is a bust.
GROUP B - Watch the same thing and believe he has accomplished 85% of the job and believe surely he can do the...
I think there must be a disagreement between the FO and Coaches on Dante.
People like you sound like Quin to me. Wouldn't have re-signed him for anything like 11 mill/per.
But someone decided to.
Yamers this is a bit misleading.
Sure Dante is still not great with switching and positioning at times, but he is wayyyyyyyyyy better at staying infront or connected to his direct opponent.
Unfortunately, Dante is one of the few defenders that probably is done a disservice by the switching...
Wow. Jack.. This is a horrible take.
You don't think Dante's solid play this year deserved another chance last night?
Wow just wow.
First or second play on the court he was hit with his customary BS foul. Then made a TO, an assist and a missed shot on the buzzer.
Not his greatest three...
Figure what out?
You do realize he is trying to mould himself to what Quin wants and feels the team needs.
Stay infront of the oppositions fastest guard when he is on the court. Use his speed as a change up to collapse the defense or get to the rim. Otherwise stand around and look as if he...
Woah! I must have missed that one. I get most of MVPs takes... but c'mon man you don't have to love Exum (unconditionally) to realise how funny and bad that take is
I think often though he is quick enough to make it pass most contact, but not enough body control etc to make the finishes at high speed. Watching X makes me realize how freaky players like Kyrie, Dame and Mitchell are around the rim at times (given their size and array of moves)
The thing I noticed most, was for the first time since the playoffs, I felt like Mitchell had his opponents off balance all night. That is probably his greatest asset. And probably one of the most important attributes a player can possess.
