I 'm wondering how good Podz would be in a non kerr system
I'm bias but Kobe deserved this one. I remember hating every time we played Phoenix and know that Steve Nash and Amare ran that offense, but Kobe got that trash *** team to the playoffs.
COLORADO case hindered kobe from having 2-3x MVP's

League just couldn't do it
 


I'm sure its been posted, but this was really good and I totally agree.


That was a great watch. NBA Money Ball. Analytics winning. The point that Boston figured this out I agree with and unfortunately to beat them you might have to play the same way..
3s-15-45 =- 45 points on 33% shooting which is poor
2s- 20-40 = 40 points on 50% shooting which is great

So the numbers support you can win the game chucking bad 3s once you shoot enough of them.

I did disagree wirh the pick up ball point, maybe things changed but we wasn’t shooting 3s as much back then unless the guy was a 3 point shooter.
 
There were some players who took bad shots 10 years ago. There were some players who took bad shots 20 years ago. There were some players who took bad shots 30 years ago. You can pick any given season in NBA history, look at the worst team in the league for that season, and find plenty of examples of poor shot selection. Poole/Kuzma/Wizards lowlights are funny to laugh at but using that as a referendum on the league as a whole is goofy.

Select people in this thread are being intentionally obtuse and its dragging the quality of the discussion down.
 
I get some of this but again the nuggets, mavs, Celtics, bucks, lakers, warriors, thunder and twolves don’t play alike either. I need people to stop locking in on the 3 ball.

And the wizards got Poole and Kuz now but 15 or so years ago they had Gil and Nick young taking bad shots. Late 90s they had Tyrone nesby hoisting tough middies. They had bad players taking bad shots in the early 90s too.
 
Bucks suck yo. Def not top 3 in the East.
Cup hangover maybe.

I think they’ve moved into 3rd behind the Celts and Cavs. It’s more because I don’t really like any other East teams rather than thinking the Bucks are really good. But Giannis is beasting and Dame still a threat to go off at any time, so that’s enough against most teams.
 
DCAllAfrican DCAllAfrican since you're the designated authority on bad games, are we gonna discuss Pandemic Pee shooting 2/12 for 5 points or does your hate only extend to GOATbert, the greatest defensive big man of modern times?
 


I watched this whole game and was ready to give him credit and he immediately goes back to being a fraud and ducking the better team
 


the depth he went into for this is oscar worthy. I totally forgot how many guys got traded to the Thunder then instantly flipped within like 48 hours.
