There are some good players in there, but the only ones who are anywhere close to superstar level are Nash and Stockton. Sure, Nash won his MVPs,...
Both of these articles are misleading. The only stat that is relevant is that all championship teams, except the 2004 Pistons, have had a...
He was actually pretty small for a center. More like 6'9"+. But he was an incredible rebounder with outstanding post moves. He was the dominant...
I agree about not going for the ball, so a flagrant makes sense, but it was not a malicious play and was not dangerous. I would disagree about...
Players are allowed to foul. You are just not supposed to foul in ways that are likely to lead to injuries. This is a shoulder bump on a player...
I've tended to be a Rudy Gay basher, but I'd actually take him over Melo. If NY had him, I think he'd be a much better teammate and fit in...
That's true, but it's a pretty major limitation. The pick and roll is the main play in the NBA these days because it works well, especially with...
For the pro-Melo crowd, why do people think he would play better in Houston when he has shown no signs of being a franchise player in NY?
I would give them Scola + Bud + Thabeet, then flip Melo to New Orleans for Kaman and Eric Gordon.
Probably true. Looks like his ceiling is Patrick Ewing. That's not bad, though, especially in today's NBA.
The current Heat are constructed roughly like the Jordan/Pippen Bulls teams, who the Rockets consistently beat because the Bulls could not guard...
Honestly, I think Melo's days of being considered an "elite" player are just about over. The statheads have mostly agreed on this for a few years...
Lin is good but struggles against an aggressive trap off the PnR. That's not exactly a surprise, since it is only the truly elite players (DWill,...
Honestly, there is little rational reason NOT to use analytics. Player evaluation using heavy stats analysis is exactly the same thing that...
A lineup of Gasol, Motiejunas, Ilyasova, Dragic, Llull -- I fear for the health of our marketing department.
11th actually. Like the thought, though.
Fallon has gotten a bit better since his SNL days. He was terrible in that because he's not really a comedian. As the host of a variety show, he's...
The odd thing about this is that Marvin Williams has asked for a trade, too. Drew needs to manage his players better.
I like Lin, too, but it is bizarre to have so much LOF behavior here when he was just briefly with us in the preseason.
I don't think there is anyone in the GARM who has ever said a top 3-5 seed team should intentionally try to lose. The argument that has been made...
