    If we're able to steal a good buyout player, that could change things a bit.

    Bigbum should have zero new post attempts.

    Bigbum not good fit for clutchfans

    BigBum is ballscientist or ballscientist's relative.

    Sure, if those shots are all within 5 feet of the basket.

    Does context of the shot not play a part in ANY of this? You're gonna get to the 4th quarter and realize Capela hasn't hit his quota, so you have him flinging them up from the 3-point line?

    If Clutch bans @Jack Kingoff and @BigBum this will be a better place.

    I don't mind fans from other teams, but don't come in here and play both sides like a troll. Be real like @what . What does it right.

    This is a bigger problem for every other team in the league, James Harden and Chris Paul get to decide this and choose the best option for 48 minutes a game. Just tare apart defenses and get the best shot, this pre-planning shot allocation is beneath us.

    Couldn't agree more. I don't know whose burner accounts these two are, but neither of them are either interesting or funny.

    Or perhaps instead of allocating attempts and trying to do the math we can try another strat. The attempts come to what the defense gives us.

    D’Antoni gets players paid, when they play within the system. Melo won’t need to go rogue. @BigBum

    BigBum is no fan of ours. He's just throwing wrenches into our well maintained engine. We're going to be unbelievable next year. Write it down!

    The place would be a much better place if all these lame burner accounts were eliminated... How lame does somebody have to be that they need to create a second account to hide their identity?

    I just want to see Joe Cheeze take some shots in garbage time without getting ****-blocked by Bobby Brown or Gerald Green.

    Seriously, is that too much to ask?

    LOL! Yeh, I thought of Kerr and his burner account when i posted... but i'll give someone a pass if they have views to express but need to protect their livelihood - as with most of the insiders... but these guys with multiple accounts bc they dont have the nuts to stand behind the bs they're spewing just piss me off... or if they need to have a 2nd account so they can shine their own apples pretending to be somebody else are really sad... lol
