I finally reached the point of having to unfollow David Locke after his latest emptying the noggin blog post. These two little numbers pushed me over the edge. One is a tweet the other from the blog:
"Lots of twitter action about the lack of subs. Really it was the case on both side. Willie Green was the only sub from Atlanta. I think it is a legitimate discussion because I thought guys were gassed but I didn’t see a lot of people with specific answers to what they were doing. Favors needs to play more than 19 minutes not because it is the overtime but because he is good if not better than the other guys but who were you taking out of the game and when. Jefferson’s inability to guard the pick and roll in the open floor was an issue for a while but then how are you scoring Millsap was 10 of 25 tonight. Burks for CJ could be a possible move but CJ had held down Joe Johnson as we showed earlier for 3 of 16 since the 1st quarter. It is never as easy as just make the change, when and for whom and how. "
"@Lockedonsports: You would never know from looking at Twitter timeline that Favors was -9 in 19 mins tonight - not sure the validity but worth a mention"
Is he just a massive troll?
He really think we are buying his "how do you score"without Al BS? We've shown an ability to score well without Al against great teams. And the other crap he brings with him makes his production negative. Matador D. Inefficient volume scoring. Ball stopping. Never gets to the line so their team dictates their bigs rotation however they want instead of getting them in foul trouble.
I have followed Locke for a while and he does provide some useful information but I really hate how he
makes excuses for problems that room temperature IQs can see.
And the way he makes it seem like changing players because your guys are gassed is like O-Chem at Duke is hilarious.
I may refollow at some point because he does provide info that others don't, but I needed a break lol.
