By PSYCH! Go To Postomg KDThunder really are just better off with those two isoing every time down the court.
I seriously don't see a solution with this team till there's a new coach/personnel. No talking on D but they want to switch everything. Fucking Harden isos as your go play?!? Madness. Ty has been the playing better so that's a plus but fuck everything else about this squad sucks
Found this quote from October...

By John ReidHow much has the Pelicans' defense been simplified under Alvin Gentry/Darren Erman? Anthony Davis says they have only three defensive calls.
By PSYCH! Go To Postoh shit Brandon Knight just dunked on YB and Ibakadunk in vain
By Sharp Go To PostCP3 is 2/17 with 4 points and 10 assists, he's basically Rondo.black rubio tbh
By PSYCH! Go To Postblack rubio tbhBrandon can actually knock down a jump shot.

That's John Wall-esque shooting, isn't it?
Encouraged by Payne again but man our defense needs to take some strides if we're gonna put up any kind of fight in the playoffs.
Rondo/Rubio won't take 17 shot doe
more like 9 point on 2-7 type of shit with shitload of assist that meaningless because dude passing on open shot

Okay, this was meaningless, but still might be one of the best plays of the year:

Three years away from being three years away but he'll make the play of the year down 15 with a minute left.

By ratcliffja Go To PostMerry Christmas everybody.kind of early, isn't it?
By Sharp Go To PostFound this quote from October…So, it turns out that the simpler system requires greater individual responsibility. And the majority of the players on the team, don't have the basketball mind to handle that. Monty was apparently on the right track by giving these guys tight, focused objectives so that their decision making was kept to a minimum.

It's the same reason the offense has tanked this season; guys just don't have the ability to make the right decision when there are multiple things to take account of. You need to pare down the problem set for them.

I get to tour the practice facility on Monday, so I'm excited for that.
By DY_nasty Go To Postwtf is going on with dj?He's dead. Just provides no burst or attacking presence. Payne is much better already.
By DY_nasty Go To Postyo… this okc rebreand stuff looks legitI've learned to tune out any rebranding stuff because it ain't gonna happen. Apparently they're wedded to the stupid "OKC" shield. Supposedly Nike is gonna refresh our look when they take over the NBA but I'm not expecting anything too drastic.
some of it
By Kibner Go To PostSo, it turns out that the simpler system requires greater individual responsibility. And the majority of the players on the team, don't have the basketball mind to handle that. Monty was apparently on the right track by giving these guys tight, focused objectives so that their decision making was kept to a minimum.I was always hesitant to blast Monty the way a lot of people (looking at you, IWMTB) seemed to want to... but if the defense under Monty was as good as it was going to get with this group, Demps really needs to figure out a way to completely turn over that roster. Is that even possible for the Pelicans? Or are they pretty much stuck with who they have?

Then you only have Asik and Ajinca who both signed multi-year deals this past off-season. They own all their future picks.
The only guys that are worth keeping with Davis are Jrue and Pondexter. Maybe Cunningham. Those are the only guys I trust to do their jobs on both sides of the ball.
By Dude Guy Go To PostRocket League is the truth brehs, I wish I knew its glory sooner.Yeah, it's amazing. I first played it at last year's QuakeCon. So many people screaming "GOOOOAAAALLLL!!!" and "fuck you!" across the BYOC area. It was fantastic.
By Kibner Go To PostYeah, it's amazing. I first played it at last year's QuakeCon. So many people screaming "GOOOOAAAALLLL!!!" and "fuck you!" across the BYOC area. It was fantastic.I put it off for so long even with people telling me it was great because I was like "Man futbol is wack, I wouldn't be interested in that"
But now I have seen the light
By Gabyskra Go To PostRocket League is fun with friends but I wouldn't play it alone.p much
You guys may be right, my buddies are probably making it awesome for me. But in actual ball related things, y'all ready for Lakers v Sixers tonight?!
