The Lakers, Clippers, Nuggets, and Mavericks are not. The Jazz have not done one single thing to address their inability to guard on the perimeter or stretch 5s.
They played very well together when we had 3 shooters. They only struggled when paired with Rubio. I don't expect them to okay together a ton but at least I'm good matchups or if it's working at the end of the game. You put way too much on shooting. Favors passes decent. They both do tons of things well.
Don't think so.
What league have you been watching the last decade? Shooting IS basketball, dude.
I've watched Rudy dominate without shooting along with many others. Scoring is basketball. I don't care about a trend today. Play to your strengths.
Gobert can guard stretch bigs. We just need a defensive schematic that doesn’t collapse when he’s out there. Oh and some competent perimeter defenders.
In the playoffs? Rudy gets scouted and his effects mitigated in the playoffs every year. How do the teams that beat us every year score? They shoot better and in more varied ways than we do. It is one of the pillars of elite basketball.
GS won't go anywhere with Oubre instead Kley they will be slightly worse. Minnesota emerges for good season - the competition on the West side is even stronger than last year
To many things here I disagree with to debate. I leave you to your usual pity party.
We ain’t getting either. Sorry.
Right. Which we've done nothing to address. The only way to protect the rim against 5-out offenses is with athletic wings. We'll see what happens with Bey and Woodard but I think at least one of them will be in the league and make us sad they aren't here.
