    Who helped with our defense man. You have two bad posts in a row. If we lose Ariza we will lose our defense.

    Yes! Sure we could potentially fill a gap at the 4, but we create one at the 3! Brewer, while very energetic, is not on Ariza's level of defense. Then on offense I trust Ariza more.

    My one issue with Ariza is his lack of slashing and how he avoids contact. I miss that part about Parsons, the putting the ball on the ground and heading to the hole but I certainly don't miss that dribble off the knee he did so often.

    Can't believe nobody pays attention to this...We should have a separate thread for Doc sticking with this bold prediction.

    I tweeted him back saying I figured Spurs were pretty much a done deal since the moment they traded Splitter. He agreed that it is most likely the Spurs. His use of 75-85% is not the way we think of 75-85% chance. To me it's like Spurs are 90% The rest of the teams are slim with the Lakers at zero.

    I'm no Good Will Hunting but I don't think one team can have a 99% chance of landing the player and we can still have a 75% chance.

    I don't think math works like that....

    There needs to be more than one winning condition for his example to work. For example, worse team in the league has a 100% chance at getting the top 4 pick, the 2nd worse team has 88% chance and so on.

    In this case, LMA's free agency decision is more akin to the odds of landing the 1st overall pick. There is only 100% to split between everyone. One team cannot have a 66% chance and the other has a 50% chance.
