    He's a troll. If you check his post history that's all he does. Never contributes anything meaningful to a conversation

    Of those top 6 here’s the % of their possessions that they take a spot up shot

    Kispert : 26.6%
    Watanabe : 42.3%
    Wade : 59.3%
    KPJ : 8.4%
    Curry : 11.4%
    Kennard : 24.0%

    Would be nice if we could/would actually use KPJ as more of a volume spot up guy. He seems to be really good at it.

    Exactly. He can't spot up if he's doing iso or pnr most of the time.

    He's like a much better JR Smith yet we're using him as James Harden. 4 turnovers to 6 assists isn't ideal. A massive coaching issue.

    Smith us actually a good comparison. Very similar players. Talent is there but no basketball IQ

    No doubt....they have probably been friends for years.

    You can't keep Harden from talking to lil baby and others. Same with Green. Sengun as well.

    Member here says his doctor lives by them....Green, JC and Sengun are always together.

    In the movie, "The Shack" a female character speaks to the father of the slain little girl.
    In the garden many things look beautiful...
    but they can have thorns or be poisonous.
    It does not make the entire garden horrible....
    it can be a part of it's beauty.

    How do you know God didn't present tests to both Miles and his ex wife? Meant for Bridges to hit rock bottom....and improve himself from it.

    What I've been saying....you don't know all that you think you know

    And I'm glad they support each other. I certainly have supported friends who did questionable things. That's part of loyalty.

    Love that they're always together. Kind of reminds of the Pistons when they won and to a lesser extent the Lings. Would like to see HC get a little more burn instead of Nix. Of course we need to rid ourselves of Silas

    I'm actually going to watch the movie because despite a few differences I think moraly we think alike. Probably try on Friday.

    I don't. If he comes out a better person then I will give him the benefit of the doubt. Would like to see him do some work with women's shelters and battered women. No cap. Just genuine stuff.

    Nobody knows everything at the end of the day. All speculation

    NBA players have plenty of friends that are criminals. I just don’t want them on my team. Very simple. Plenty of owners feel the same

    Not there yet on KPJ. A little different in his case (although I certainly don't put him in the same category as Bridges). He quit on the team. Again, I don't see anyone defending Pippen (nor would I want them to)

    Exactly. It's a bad culture
