Like durvasa, only mediocre at math. :grin: Last night was a GREAT example of the potential benefits of skilled foul-drawers. 28 combined...
True. I think defense has a lot more to do with the players' skill sets, coaching, and effort, as well as the synergistic relationship between...
Yeah you're right I just wasn't paying attention--see above. Like durvasa, I would have expected more or a correlation between height of bigs...
My mistake. I thought the Defensive efficiency ratings were position specific as well (IE, Posessions "used" by opposing wings at a per 100...
Very interesting stuff. Im always a little bit skeptical of position-by-position defensive breakdowns, given the fact that certain positions...
Not really. Low = good defense. Kobe and Artest on the wings with Pau and Bynum in the middle is fairly formidable.
Fact. There are angles where it's imposible to take a charge, and you have to meet guys at the rim, either by going for the block or standing...
This would be really interesting. While a blocked shot can have an effect on the crowd, it also also doesn't gaurentee posession, even if you...
Couldn't dig up anything that specific, but there are stats for shooting fouls comitted. Hayes, for example, has commited 82 shooting fouls....
Thanks. To answer your question: as you might expect when dealing with two of the league's best finishers, both Bosh and Stoudumire are elite...

Do you watch the games? As for your only "argument": shotblockers get dunked on. It happens. If you don't get "posterized", you aren't...
Nope, no free throws. Here's the rule: That being said, taking charges is still awesome because it does "create" possessions, and that's a...
Sadly, offensive fouls do not count towards the team total--only "loose ball" and "defensive" fouls do. Of course, charges drawn ARE the basic...
You are 100% correct. Oversight on my part. So the average Lowry shot produces .9 points instead of .8. You are also correct that it...
In the wake of the Kevin Martin trade, a lot has been said about his ability to draw fouls, and the positive impact that has on our team's...
Officially: Morey fielded a question about this in one of the billion press conferences/interviews he did around the trade deadline (I would...
Just though everyone would like to hear Scola's thoughts on the win over the warriors, and upcoming game against the grizzlies:

That was exactly what SNL always is: really hit-and-miss. Some skits (the ski lodge) were just awful, while some skits (Macgruber, golf swing)...
