    There aren't even 1,000 FGA in the entire league last year from 28' out involving a pass. Exaggerate much.
    Please stick to 28 footers
    (1) there is a thing as going too fast (like Green in the video below) vs doing a controlled closeout (like PJ did), hence the headfakes and fouling the shooter,
    (2) Many coaches would rather not risk it and let the 28'er shoot.​
    sign...that's NOT good defense. How is that good defense? Green is lost and out of control. PJ is smarter than that.

    Also, that's an easy, single-dribble sidestep 3 by Ryno, since Green is essentially diving at EGo. He is so lost that Ariza's man thinks EGo is his man, so EGo gets mistakenly doubled.

    You're just making my point.
    1. Green is lost and running around with reckless abandon, resulting in two defenders going to EGo.
    2. The guy who drew two defenders isn't compelled to shoot
    And that's aside from the fact that:
    1. that wasn't even 28'. It was at most 26'. EGo doesn't have the extra 2' that Ryno had on PJ.
    2. Green is diving past EGo, who can easily shoot off that one step reposition he made, but that's a Long 2 like I said. A 28'er start point and the one step reposition is a 3ptr like that Ryno vs Durant vid I showed. hence why you don't dive at 28'ers like Green does to EGo at 26' start point
    3. EGo is 6 inches shorter than Ryno...and a better driver.
    4. EGo's instinct is to drive and find Ariza on that out of control defense
    5. Ryno's instinct is to side-step Green to the right, like Ariza did later in the vid...
    6. And did I say that wasn't a 28'er
    7. And did I say that is bad defense....they are out of control

    didn't even read b/c you already wasted enough of my time today. in closing, pj be slower than a lot of other perimeter playaz, and ryno can't shoot off the dribble.

    don't mind a reasonable talk but now you've already tried the "but but he doesn't even know that ryno is a whopping TWENTY EIGHT feet back" assailment which quite frankly i actually considered just agreeing to as a painless out to your raiding audit of my posts (why did i have to be the unlucky chosen one today?). could have made u just move on to the next poster victim but stuck around for whatever reason, and then you tried throwing out (hail mary?) the desperate PJ basher label which was really never going to stick -- that one was certainly a weak effort for a 99er and i would not at all be surprised if tinman approaches to have a talk with you and sort of straighten things out in the coming days.

    then you doubledowned with "look he won't waste his time actually searching for a video of the closeout so i'll just keep broadcasting that" .....and you did have a nice chant going there for about 1/2 a page and to be honest, i was pretty busy and didn't really feel like wasting more time searching out any video, so it was a good bet on your part no doubt. but then later when i typed into youtube the very first result popping up was danny green sprinting out to recover on EG past the arc and stopping short on dime, just like PJ should have done on ryno's 3. so then i was like great let's go ahead and post this and then sherriff will just move his hot pursuit and ferocious bassett hound onto some other hazzard county denizen.

    and when i woke up this morning.... and read that green's defense is actually bad defense and coach pop doesn't know what he's doing lol :D

    The value of Tucker won't be written in 6 games. Dumb bump. It's like comparing someone to Shane Battier after 6 games with only select statistics and ignoring intangibles.

    I'm thankful we have Tucker and Luc on this team.
    Who cares about + and -
    Appreciate those guys for what they do for us.

    If Gordon plays that game .....6-1
    If Paul doesn't get hurt .....7-0

    So by be careful with him Dantoni means he will only play him 35 minutes instead of 40.
