I thought it was backcourt too at first, but I think they had the right call on the court. He didn't really establish control until he was in the...
Couldn't this have waited until July or August? I'm not superstitious usually, but this gave me the heebie jeebies....
Great post HeyP. I loved the way we attacked their defense. And because of Harden's ability to step back while the defense is adjusting, he was...
The Rockets are flat out better with him playing. His numbers may not impress, but the space he creates by drawing defenders out way beyond the...
Hennigan was a trash GM.
Needs to gain a lot of strength. If you hit him, the contact is enough to completely change his trajectory. He's going to need to finish at the...
I don't think we are too far off in what we are saying. I agree that taking a contested 3 is not your ideal shot. That still doesn't negate the...
I think you're 100% right - that model was literally off the top of my head, and not meant to be taken as anything as a rough sketch. But even...
The numbers just don't back you up. Your perception is that those shots have a far lower chance (10% vs. 40-50%) of going in. That's just...

This is borderline sacrilegious, but hear me out. This guy played at about a replacement level for us. He was way below replacement after he...
OK - counting cards is not the same as basketball because in general, one shot is not related to the next. The "hot hand" hypothesis has been...
Let's try and distill this into a unifying theory. First, are the shots related or unrelated? The team trying to get the 2 shots is likely to be...
They could have kept all 4 by amnestying Perkins. And they kept Kendrick Perkins over James Harden. Let me repeat. They kept Kendrick...
That is one of my favorite Hakeem plays of all time. Such a random game, don't know why I remember that play so clearly.
Yes, earlier this year.
He was very good but not near his peak.
