The discussion of Shaq’s defense is complicated. You can’t throw his entire career under the bus like you just did, because the data don’t back it up. There were years when his team was better defensively with him on the court.

Iirc, in reports and interviews, he referred to having thoughts that his second tour with the jazz would be longer/more commitment from the front office.

My heart has opened up to the idea that maybe we should trade Ingles. I’m not settled or comfortable in this position, but I’ve worked myself into a space where I could accept this. From the cold-hearted, 10,000-foot view, Ingles’ and Clarkson’s spots have to be considered the most obvious...

I love how nobody really cares when he puts up an empty-stat triple double anymore. That used to cause the dumbest ruckus and praise.

Someone get a pic of Loggy’s kankles, tia.

The theme of “primed to overreact to the results” has been established, though. I’m with you, for sure.

Sorry bro

despite all the fuss you're likely to hear about threesomes, they're rarely as good in reality as they are in imagination.

jom is ****ing ridiculous

Um definitely let mike start all the action in the clutch. This hasn’t been done enough.

Um, Durant is called the slim reaper. And you just got 1000 points of demotion for likening Gobert with Durant.

I’d like to think about things more in terms of developing different looks, not how many players it takes to play those different looks. If Whiteside sits, then Paschall could suddenly be in the 8-man rotation. And if we’re forced to go small, then we need to be able to adjust. Obvi.

I want Q to work it out: get Eric some time as small-ball C with Gay at the 4. Totally spread floor. Eric in the corner or as the roll man.

I’ve watched 5 or 6 games. The defense just communicates and calls audibles so well, and Green’s influence is all over that. They have 3 or 4 styles they can throw at you, and they can alter things on-the-fly. It pretty beautiful. And historically great so far.

This won’t be popular around here, but I think it’s fair to call Draymond the Dpoy up to this point.

I was in a rush to make fun of him. Had to pop out the first message that came through my fingers before somebody beat me to the punch. I wish it had gone better, tbh.

Bolerhack would like to submit “Mr Confidence” for consideration.

This builds on some of the sentiments from @infection and @Handlogten's Heros .... I wouldn’t define any of Quin’s best teams by their heart or grit. The definition comes much more through the cerebral way a system is consistently run. And that system is chosen for its statistical merits...

Not sure. I guess we’ll have to wait for the first couple of 7” players to make the league and start generating some data for us.
