    no im actually not. he took the same bad shots here as he did anywhere else. just because he had on a rockets jersey doesn't change that.

    I don’t know YOLO. I respect you, but I’m not sure the numbers say so. Keep in mind that the Rockets didn’t have
    Josh Smith all of 14/15.....so some of the numbers belong to Detroit. per basketball-reference.com

    Josh Smith shooting by distance
    ..........................12/13................13/14.............14/15 (Det/Hou)..............15/16 (Clippers part time)
    At the rim...309 / 401 FGA.......214 / 301.........218 / 341.........................53 / 84
    3’ to 10’......103 / 287 FGA.......104 / 305.........121 / 345.........................25 / 83
    10’ to< 16’...12 /62 FGA............27 / 79.............14 / 47.............................3 / 15
    16’ to< 3pt....99 / 301 FGA......102 / 283..........47 / 149............................7 / 29
    3pt................66 / 221 FGA........70 / 265...........99 / 299..........................45 / 151

    Looks to me like he reduced his 10’ to < 3pt to me. How much of those 14/15 numbers go to Pistons.

    his attempts are not surprisingly going to be high when hes on a better team. they shouldn't be. but the same type of shots are still obviously taken just in less volume because thats what his role dictates and him just getting worse as a player.

    it's a test.

    If it is about the money, he will stay.

    If it is about winning, he will leave.

    Time will tell.

    Updated COD signature (4/5/18). Give it up for the Ears!

    "Watch draft night" ....oh?

    ----

    -The final stretch---this could be the year.
    -All love to Clutchfans, Clutch and the posters who've been awesome since day one.
    -The Ears are around, but thankfully, it's nice and quiet.
    -NeNe is in good spirits. #Loyalty (Careful though, the man has pride. He wants to play, and he should over a few guys. (TBlack...rolls eyes)
    -Summer will be busy. LBJ will be listening to everyone, but if not HTown, there are already backup plans to have an official, starting BIG 3-4, with another crazy BIG 2 coming off the bench (EGO IS LIKE A BIG 2...BTW)

    ***Watch draft night!!!

    Everyone wants to play with CP/James/Trev and MDA.
    --I'm enjoying my work with Dan and publishing some of my last work to keep a legacy for those...who care.. The Bloody Ears and memoirs of dysfunctional meetings, games and parties will finally be out of my mind and placed on paper. :)

    #HOOD #AJ # LOVE #JG #DJcheap #ABEL ....more to come...WIldcard: Grizz--JG ; LAC Firesale :TOby for ____R

    I'm not CYBER, but the ears never stop. :)

    More to come.

    Hood = Rodney Hood
    Love = Kevin Love
    DJcheap = DeAndre Jordan
    Abel = Elfyid Payton (?)
    Grizz JG = Jamaychal Green
    Toby = Tobias Harris

    AJ = Jarrett Allen (doubt it's him, don't think Brooklyn will trade him) - Al Jefferson (meh) - Amir Johnson (?)
    JG = Jerami Grant (?) - Jeff Green (meh) - Jerian Grant (?)

    I hope AJ means Amir Johnson. He will be a reliable backup 5.

    People expect me to believe that this mutha****a is 19?! Come on, this dude looks like he's got a Roth IRA and a pension plan just waiting to be responsibly used.

    Majerle.

    It's a Phoenix connection, but I'm pretty sure he talks a lot about Thunder Dan. So, we can rule out Rather. We can rule out Toni. Dan Majerle.

    I would have never seen this, and you go and ruin my already unproductive day.

    Who am I kidding? Me likes.

    Interesting point, Gilbert threw money at Trump, James threw money and campaigned for Clinton, but it seemed like from the start that the relationship wasn't going to last. Normally two professionals can get past differences in political viewpoints, but with a relation as strained as this, it was the straw that broke the camels back.

    Fertitta is a well known donor of both political parties, so I guess we got that going for us, which is nice.
