    Chad Ford didn't do it, it was some random other person who was never found at ESPN. I know because ESPN said so, and Chad Ford denied it. Also, Ray Allen's twitter was hacked when he accidentally posted a message to a mistress, Bryan Colangelo was not involved in his wife creating burner accounts, NOAA predicted that Hurricane Dorian was going to hit Alabama, except that the data was so new it had to be added by sharpie to the map, and the Russian troops in Ukraine right now are only stationed as peacekeepers.

    Woa, that is at least 50 pounds more than the guy on the left and he is only 1 year older.

    Wow didn’t realize Green has been more efficient than Edwards was at the same stage.

    Trending upwards at the same juncture too. Imagine that.

    Green performs significantly better with lots of rest. We had a light schedule before the break, then the break. Will help him.

    Kid is going to have a great finish to the season, I’d bet on it.

    Edwards started balling out after the ASG. I would not get my expectations up so high. Imo, if Green can just do what he has done in the last handful of games, I'll be happy.

    So Edwards started balling out but couldn't quite catch LaMelo.

    worth noting that pre/post asb for last year was 36 games on each side (depending on the team)

    Ant went from his just under 15 ppg in his first 36 games to just under 24 ppg in the post all-star 36 games.

    Big jump. Though some of it was just minutes and usage.

    More impressive than the increase in PPG was the increase in efficiency. Like you said, scoring can increase just with usage and minutes but Edwards was on fire for the second half of the season.

    I like this podcast, but I think he makes far too many excuses for poor play.

    I keep on seeing people bringing up the sample size of 1 in Anthony Edwards. So we should be expecting 24/5/3.5 on 45/35% from now on, right?

    the guy sounded like a paid spokesman for landry's group. i'm guessing he perhaps he wants to maintain his team access or press privileges?

    If he puts up Anthony Edwards post allstar break numbers I will delete this account after recording myself drink my own j*zz. What are you betting?

    I expect to see Wood and Ego in full action and Schroeder off the bench and KPJ is still striving to take the most shots.

    Silas smiling.

    20 games could easily be a small sample size, he could either go cold or hot and 24 ppg is not impossible either.

    SIlas pities him for failing in the dunk contest.

    This doesn't seem fair. That's not even a punishment for @CXbby

    Anthony Edwards is not the only player that struggled out of the gate and improved over time, but he is similar to Green in terms of play style and a very recent example of not judging a player too quickly. Green probably won't be getting those averages, but has basically shot those percentages over the past ten games. He's already showing improvement on both sides of the ball.
