Re: the Portland rumor, I just looked at their roster. The only reasonable trade IMO would involve Meyers Leonard. Doesn't make sense for Portland...
The Dec 19th cutoff is for the same reason, to keep assets liquid for the deadline. If Asik gets dealt for a lotto in December, we roll with DMo...
Dwight needs to get himself an education. That's how you become mentally strong, by knowing things other people don't. Study (of Islam) is what...
A good coach can play different styles depending on his personnel. See Pat Riley, Rudy T, Popovich. D'Antoni thought Earl Clark was better...
Agree with durv. We are contenders, and have to take criticism like contenders. LeBron went through the same thing when he first went to Miami. He...
His quitting is probably just corporate speak. A firing looks even worse both for him and for Cuban, so even if Cuban was incredibly pissed off at...
Hayward is a good player, but anything over $10million is nuts. He's a barely above average SF. You could make a case for him + or - relative to...
I am a huge supporter of stats, but I am not impressed by winston. He published a book a couple years ago and it had a lot of models that were...
There are a lot of teams, including us, that are bunched up. But the GS, Brooklyn, and NY predictions are pretty terrible. They're all overrated...
I'll buy that. On topic: Lillard is better than Barnes.
You forgot the absolute most important stat for PGs: A/TO. Lillard was 6.5/3.0 last year, which are pretty mediocre numbers. Chris Paul was at...
Olajuwon is not there to teach plays or strategy. That's what each team's coaching staff is for. These guys are paying to learn post moves, so...
Interesting insight, OP. It's true that Morey has drafted a lot of PFs, but he has also repeatedly said that playing small is generally better...
There were a huge number of very bad 4th quarter calls in that game, including one in which Nowitzki would have fouled out. The moving screen...
Definitely a chucker, but he could always generate a decent (though not great) shot by getting into the lane. He also was a beast in the passing...
Shaq actually had really good footwork, despite his only two shots being 1-handed slam and 2-handed slam. That's a good model for Dwight's game....
Drummond is very athletic. He actually had very similar numbers to Howard's rookie year, but with lower minutes. The main difference, incredibly...
Jennings is the better talent, but I would take Lin by a mile for our team. Talent isn't everything: see Shabazz Muhummad, Stromile Swift....
Jennings is a chucker, but better than Knight. At least Jennings is a PG (2.4 A/TO) but Knight is barely at 1.5 A/TO and is too small and too...
