lol we gave up this guy plus 2 picks for the privilege of keeping prigioni at the end of our bench :grin:
Is there more sickly looking NBA player out there than Shved? Plenty of skinny dudes in the NBA, but Alexey has the trifecta of skinny, pale and complete lack of muscle definition. Does Alexey ever lift weights, go out in the sun or eat?
In his last five, Shved averaged 16.6 points, 6.2 boards, 4.4 dimes, 0.8 steals and 2.2 treys. Did Morey mess up on this one again? He certainly could have deserved minutes in place of Terry/Beverley IMO.
there's a difference between putting up numbers on one of the worst teams in the league and being able to play for a good team
I understand but what is Jason Terry putting up and Pablo Prigioni giving us in Houston currently? And did/could they ever do the same if they were on NY right now? I'd say no.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8Pci4dSwgY Shved’s been piling up stats across the box score, filling minutes for the league’s most miserable watch — but if he keeps blatantly mailing in defense, he’ll remain on the edge of NBA extinction. Shved treats every perimeter player like a total nonshooter, giving them a laughable amount of air space in which to drive. And when those players do drive, Shved just backs up with them, maintaining the same distance. He’s allergic to contact. - Zach Lowe
id rather have terry in the game instead of shved in the playoffs and that's what its about. you're concerned over meaningless stats in games in new york.
The Rockets PG position is like the Defense of the Dark Arts instructor in Harry Potter. Just cursed soon as you arrive and you don't get better until you leave. The solution is to kill Voldemort aka John Stockton.
