Rockets show 15 more free throws than the Pels in the third quarter and were still outscored by 9 points.
Cannot be overstated how much more competent the Hornets look just from replacing their non NBA talents with normal bench players.
By Sharp Go To PostCannot be overstated how much more competent the Hornets look just from replacing their non NBA talents with normal bench players.We just have to get Cody back on the bench. Cliff keeps thinking the guy can be a real combo guard and it's pathetic.
By diehard Go To Posthavent won here since Raymond Felton omgUtah nightlife
i like Jordan Clarkson but just way way too much of him. I'd way rather lose with the ball in Keyonte's hands.
Kessler was terrible tonight his confidence is gone
Hendricks showing flashes and thats all i can ask for

LOL everyone knew Hood-Shifino was a terrible pick.
By pilonv1 Go To PostLOL everyone knew Hood-Shifino was a terrible pick.Lakers fans' argument at the time was that their scouting department was sick and obviously knew better than everyone else. When in reality their scouting has been pretty mediocre and they just clean up on UDFAs because all of them want to play for LA and give the Lakers preferential treatment when other teams are offering similar money.
By pilonv1 Go To PostLOL everyone knew Hood-Shifino was a terrible pick.
To be fair you can't pass up on a guy called Hood Schifino.
Now he's complaining about not getting enough on ball opportunities despite somehow being an effective player next to STEPHEN CURRY of all people.
I was told by stat nerds that Poku just needed playing time
Incoming Sharp post countering that he actually sucks

By reilo Go To PostI was told by stat nerds that Poku just needed playing timeWait since when was Poku an analytics darling? He has literally never been good statistically at anything at any level, including stuff that's supposed to be free for true seven footers. Like the reason to grade super tall guys on a curve for shooting percent and stuff is supposed to be because it lets them stay on the court and be insane on defense, but he isn't insane on defense.

By reilo Go To PostI literally posted the tweetsKOC just indiscriminately loves overseas players for some reason. I don't know anything about Haberstroh but based on this being his single other tweet about Poku and the fact that he @ed someone who mostly talks about a football Poku who played for his college, I'm pretty sure he's being sarcastic...
If you're over 6'9" and can't play a lick of defense that's a PROBLEM in the NBA. Not strong enough, T-Rex arms just really kill the guy's utility as a player.
Lord knows the Blazers have had a couple dudes like that the last couple years and they're just not worth it. Part of what gives me heartburn about the Blazers brass traveling to go see Alex Sarr is I already saw his brother on the Blazers and he was... not good. This dude's Serbian John Butler (and I mean, that's OK as long as he's managed his money, certainly more than I'll ever see and he got to go all over the damn place.)

Like he could be a fine player but I'd be rather concerned about taking him #1.
By Kibner Go To PostI like this and wish it was a real stat that was tracked and made available publicly:
Definitely. Watching people run away from the basket when Rudy/AD/Wemby are around it is something not measured but hugely impactful.
