Bev can hustle, lovin Delfino's dramatic fall to the ground lol. He acted like Dirk raped him and left him for dead.
Didn't know where to add this earlier. Hope it hasn't been posted already. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>NBA's best rebounding PGs. <a href="http://t.co/u9J58sfG0L" title="http://i.imgur.com/cmFmvfg.png">i.imgur.com/cmFmvfg.png</a> #2 and #3 were total surprises to me.</p>— Ed Kupfer (@EdKupfer) <a href="https://twitter.com/EdKupfer/status/309517123254882304">March 7, 2013</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Spoiler http://i.imgur.com/cmFmvfg.png
heh!?? he had 3 rebounds the whole game and 1 in the 4th quarter on the offensive end with more than 8 minutes left. Mavs shot 50% in the 4th, there were no big defensive stops that's why the lost. Mavs PG's were not wheeling and dealing anyway regardless of whether Lin or Bev were on the floor.
it's cause the dude scored 0 points in a loss, who cares about a block that didn't matter. You'd act the same way if Lin scored 0 points in a loss and someone put a nice clip of a random no look pass from the game.
This is stupid. There are no similarities in the two. He's not being paid $25 million. He's a backup who's playing his butt off and chipping in in any way possible. And right now, he's shooting, defending, rebounding and hustling better than the guy in front of him.
that's just silly, he may be hustling better, but the other categories no way. You cant say that after the guy is going 2-7 with 9 points over the last 46 minutes he's played.
if you say so. I'm a Rocket fan who doesnt. Just like I wouldnt really care about Lin's block on Josh Smith if the Rockets ended up losing that game.
Per36: PPG: Lin RPG: Beverley APG: Even SPG: Beverley toPG: Beverley FG%: Beverley 3fg%: Beverley FT%: Lin ORtg: Beverley DRtg: Beverley WS/48: Beverley Small sample size for Beverley, but it's all we have to go by. I'm not saying he's better, but all the stats above support the notion that he has indeed been doing many things better than Lin since he's put on a Rockets uniform.
nice video clutch thx. i am a beverly fan. but i don't like it when it used to bash our starter. it's pointless and laughable. Both PGS are progressing good.
Unless I am missing something, it isn't being used to negatively portray Lin. In fact it is being used in defense of the whining about Lin not being in there because PB didn't score any points or dish out many assists. His impact was highly visible to anyone who watched the game....
So I loved this block by Beverley. But he was only in the paint because he gambled and abandoned Collision as Collision cut to the other side to set up for a 3. Beverley also gets a lot of rebounds, but that's a gamble also. If the gamble doesn't pay off he gets beat in transition. Normally PG's doing get blocks and rebounds, so if those numbers go up, it can be at the expense of other things. Not to say I'm against it. Lin gambles quite a bit and gets a lot of steals as a result. I watch basketball for entertainment, and gambling PG's is much more entertaining to watch than PG's that play it safe. It's just that the cost of all those rebounds, blocks, and steals is an occasional defensive breakdown - and those can be annoying to watch. Anyway, it's funny that Beverley was so worried about Parsons guarding Dirk in the post that he felt need to provide help defense Is this good defense, or "overhelping"? I don't know but its fun to watch
That was a great play. It was a block: defense. It led to a foul and a technical. You only look at the final score, not the players' performance? Then be happy we have a good record right now! Five star thread.
