I tweeted the exact same question to Locke about the tweet. I would suspect that Gobert/Favors is better than any of these lineups.

The problem with such small sample sizes is that a few games where a player plays garbage minutes can affect the numbers significantly.

Word from Phx is that owner has dug in & told folks he won't trade Dragic. That, of course, wouldn't be the 1st time an owner dug in.

Shhh...Locke trying to increase Kanter's trade value under orders from the Jazz' FO. Once the trade doesn't happen and Kanter gets sent to the bench, he'll gladly cite the supporting facts,

It is really pathetic that after years of bashing Kanter he now comes to his rescue to try and save face in the event a trade is not made. This is a purposely deceitful use of statistics that confirms what anti numbers guys try and argue, data can be manipulated to make an argument. Locke is a disgrace to the analytic's community and should just stop trying to be Kevin Pelton. I am sure he has not been educated in the science of analytic's and is just trying to hop on coat tails to sound smart and justify his position.

I have a degree in statistics. The numbers he is citing are pointless. They say nothing about Kanter's defensive ability, which actually doesn't require a degree in statistics to understand.
 
So the Bucks have been mentioned as possible trade partners, who else has been talked about? That bogus article linking Burke to Detroit was out there as well.

Detroit is still looking for a pg. rumours of Norris cole. I'm surprised that there are no recent rumours regarding Trey. A trade for Trey wouldn't surprise me.


Philly has no healthly pgs. Their GM said that they would have a pg before their game on Friday.

To Kanter's defense (pun intended), he has been playing better of late. He's never going to a great defender, but he has improved. I just wish the Gobert, Favors, Kanter trio could have remained intact for years: that's quite the rotation. But when you have three players wanting to be starters, something has to give, just as it did when Millsap was let go so Favors could start.
