lag∞n, Thursday, 20 December 2018 00:47 (six years ago)

with dragic out the heat have been using justise winslow as their primary PG in a lot of games (started there tonight) and this month he has lines of:

20-8-6, 2 blocks (suns)
21-6-9, 2 steals (clippers)
28-7-2, 1 steal (lakers)
22-6-5, 4 steals (magic)

he also has as many games with single digits in scoring so his play is still erratic, but the highs have gotten pretty high. he's a unique player... this is an imperfect comparison but when he's playing well he reminds me of a bit of draymond (or the draymond that contributed on offense). they're basically the same size (~6-7 230) and both are "playmakers" in that they're never gonna be consistently high scorers but can distribute pretty well and score enough to keep the defense honest. winslow has more of a guard skill set tho and obv on defense dray is one of a kind and winslow is more of just a really solid defender who can guard 4 positions vs a lot of teams, which is nice but not the same of course.

shot has been looking pretty good lately too. he was splashing against the lakers as well as making plays at the rim

interesting...it’s only based on part of this season and these numbers iirc are best interpreted with data over multiple seasons. and there are box score priors that are inputted too — his steals and blocks are down this year so that might have something to do with it.

lag∞n, Friday, 15 February 2019 14:44 (six years ago)

I don't agree with that, but clearly there are some issues -- mostly owing to small sample sizes and clustered lineups -- that make it unreliable in some cases

k3vin k., Friday, 15 February 2019 17:31 (six years ago)

like horford's RPM is really good, 32nd in the league, which seems consistent with his reputation and production this year. like with any statistic some human judgment is needed -- think of theis's numbers like you would a utility infielder whose batting line is really solid vs very favorable matchups, whose numbers would almost certainly come back to earth with more playing time and against more varied opposition. he's played 600 minutes this year, like 1/3 of most starters

k3vin k., Friday, 15 February 2019 17:35 (six years ago)

like with any stat there are some players where you scratch your head, and the statistics are in their relative infancy and will hopefully continue to improve. I do think the philosophy of RPM/PIPM is basically what the game is all about though: everything else being equal (& obv this is where the kinks are still being worked out), what is the effect of this player being on the floor on the score of the game?

k3vin k., Friday, 15 February 2019 17:42 (six years ago)

Collin Sexton was unaware that he’s the first rookie since Tim Duncan to score at least 23 points in 7 straight games. when a reporter told him postgame, he broke into a huge smile and said “oh that’s what’s up.”

his high scoring games occasionally have a "make a wish" feel to them but I think the fact that he pushes his boundaries in the midst of that Phoenix dumpster fire is somewhat admirable. I mean its not like he's doing it inefficiently

tsrobodo, Thursday, 28 March 2019 11:09 (six years ago)

I never would have noticed it if Deadspin hadn't run a story about it but Jimmer basically shot Booker out of a chance at 60 points during the first of those two 50 spots, went like 1-10 or something in limited minutes. hey, shooters shoot, though I'm pretty sure Jimmer thinks he's getting paid per FGA.

my takeaway this year is that counting stats just mean a lot less now.

'elfrid got 5 triple doubles in a row!' so did my mom who cares

'harden is averaging 37!' and no one wants to year hardens bc his game is dull

just making the 3 point line uniform and widening the court a bit would be a good first step. would drop the overall 3point % and change gameplay a bit. worth a shot for somewhere to start without changing TOO much.

do you have a preferred gameplay style in mind?

micah, Saturday, 4 May 2019 00:13 (six years ago)

i like this era of pace and space but it's a bit out of hand and not showing much signs of plateauing. basically i just think the rockets have kind of taken it to it's end/extreme and it doesnt look pretty to my eyes.

but I can't let Trae do it I got Huerter on my mind (Spottie), Saturday, 4 May 2019 00:20 (six years ago)

personally i would find the rockets much more palatable if hardens antics were deducted. as a team they make the most of their talents and its hard to fault them for it

i reject the premise that the 3 is too easy or common. what people actually dislike is ugly offense.

the convo between zach lowe & kirk g on zach’s pod was interesting... zach & SVG also had an interesting convo about this subject

J0rdan S., Saturday, 4 May 2019 07:10 (six years ago)

SVG made an interesting argument about how what isn’t fun is seeing guys just shooting so many stand still 3s per game bcuz it robs the game of amazing feats of athleticism. not sure i buy it given that the NBA is more demanding on a play to play basis than ever and the collective athleticism of the league is a big part of that but i’ve found myself considering it. personally i just think they need to move the line back... the plays i rly don’t like are like i.e. game 2 of celts/bucks when the entire game flipped bcuz khris middleton was dribbling the ball for 6 seconds and then pulling up and making contested threes. the whole thing felt random and cheap and not fun to watch.

the most interesting bit about the kirk & zach convo was when they were talking about how traditionally the league has always tweaked rules to make the game easier for smaller players but now finally it needs to be balanced back out to make it easier for the bigs

J0rdan S., Saturday, 4 May 2019 07:15 (six years ago)

saw this in an nyt story about the shitshow Lakers, but this is LeBron in a "disaster" year

But in the 55 games that James did play this season, he was pretty good. He averaged 27.4 points, 8.5 rebounds and 8.3 assists a game while shooting 51 percent from the field.

lakers wldve made the playoffs if they had stayed at all healthy, and prob lost in the first round, they were 3rd in the west at one point iirc

Beyond health the trade rumors really screwed them. Lebrons standard numbers were good but his defense was suspect all season long.

its cool cos vince carter is exactly the type of player that everyone figured would have a short career and whos game would fall off a cliff as soon as the athleticism was gone. plus he was always injured and seemed like a baby tbf. old vince has atoned for all of young vinces nba shortcomings.

yeah for a while everyone hated him

lag∞n, Monday, 5 August 2019 21:55 (five years ago)

vince loves to hoop. i always wonder about off-court contributions for guys who play a really long time. i haven't read much about vince lately, but i assume old vince is probably easy to get along with, helpful to the young guys, etc. or he wouldn't have stuck around so long.

Checketts had hired Abraham, and once Checketts left there was no buffer between himself and Dolan. The relationship, Abraham says, was cordial: “He owned the company, so I had respect for that.” Once, during a disagreement, Abraham tried to make a point. He told his boss to imagine that the two of them were in a car that Dolan owned. “‘ I want to make a left turn, you want to make a right turn,’ ” he recalls saying. “‘It’s your car. We know we’re going to make a right turn. All I’m asking is for you to explain to me why you want to make a right turn so I understand your thinking.’ ” Dolan, he recalls, said nothing. “He looked at me as if I was speaking Martian. He absolutely could not fathom what I was trying to ask him. And I think people like that, they can’t see how to build an organization or how to build a spirit in an organization. They just don’t have the acumen and the perspective to do it.”
