Avy check???

 

[Fozz]

I enjoyed that clap back from Dwayne Wade 

 

[Platinum State]

And you solely believe that because of the reasons you listed abovd?

How do you even begin to quantify these things?

"Intangibles" sounding like some of those tebow apologists back in the day.

Both you dudes just see ppg. Jokic makes his team better. Period.

Idk about Ingram's long-term future one way or the other, but he's the 2nd youngest player in the league and he looks borderline malnourished, so it's not really surprising that he got off to such a horrible start. I'm not gonna judge him until he has more time logged with an NBA strength & conditioning program (plus fills out his body naturally as he matures). Right now his body isn't ready for the league.

For a second, I thought Rondo posted that.

All I've been saying all season when nt wants instant results from him

Nice assumption.

I am simply asking you a question.

Because someone is a better passer and/or facilitator, does that AUTOMATICALLY mean they make the team better?

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Question for everyone

1. Coming into the season, what do you think the Wizards goals were?

2. Since the recent success, what do you think the Wizards goals are? (If you even think they would have changed)

Asking for research purposes.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Both you dudes just see ppg. Jokic makes his team better. Period.

And if you are going to make a claim, at least stand up and argue it with some evidence.

Not just, "Period" as if that is supposed to fly.

We aren't in 3rd grade

 

[antidope]

This was Rondos last chance in the NBA. He won't be in it next year.

 

[ill steelo]

I remember it was thing when Durant couldn't bench 185 once

Ingram looks to be even weaker than that. He'll probably need 2 full offseasons before we start seeing more consistency from him.

Damn it off by 1 @Big J 33

Unless anyone (with a real submsision not like gtb 

) had better than just one missing, this looks like our winner. I double checked the submissions but let me know if I missed any.

Congrats, PM me your info (address, favorite teams besides the Knicks, name, etc) and I'll send over your prize.

I understand the reasoning, but if the Lakers want to see Ingram play better they need to stop having him handling the ball so much and running pick and rolls.

Just put him in the mid to high post and let him go to work.

I can help with this. 
 

Ever since the Nuggets HC learned how skillfully Jokic is with his passing and ball handling, most often, the nuggets offense would go through Jokic. 

Jokic would take the ball full court and find cutting teammates on endless possession, even hitting the open man while his back was to the basket. 

Jokic got the skills that Noah once had, which was a triple double threat. He's currently averaging 4+ apg. 

Besides passing, his offense is getting there. He's got smooth touches around the basket and a nice mid range jumpshot.

This too. It's hard enough for actual PGs to make the transition let alone guys who never really played the position in college

Asking for research purposes.

1. Lose in one of the 1st 2 rounds
2. Lose in one of the 1st 2 rounds

It's the Wiz, goals don't get any higher then that

Luke said that's a good way to keep him involved in the game, it's weird but it's the Lakers

Wizards and goals don't even sound right. They're one of them teams that's just there.

 

[ill steelo]

I just need a boston/washington 1st round

 

[trueprada]

they seem to be good with making the playoffs

******* Paul Millsap

such a damn joke

He'll be back.
