NBA / 21 / 22 / FG / FT / 3PM / TO / BL / STATS

not looking too good for dennis, tho he has been starting for the blazers recently lol

if he can sustain this that would be big:

Embiid has a career high in assist percentage (22.4%) and career low in turnover percentage (11.2%) through 15 games

it wouldnt matter since al horford has mind control over him

yah he and his bro played at nevada with my cousin i watched them a ton their last year and thought they were good but not nba level good. this is why im not an nba scout. cody has been a consistent performer for the hornets too.

they're super athletic guys who play hard, i mean caleb is dunking on ppl left and right and trail blocking shots on fast breaks. they're kinda the classic case of like, if you shoot 25% from three you're out of the league (as caleb nearly was) but if you shoot 36% from three (as caleb is now) then all of a sudden you look like a nice role player

Some of that Embiid change probably due to not having Simmons, but welcome regardless (especially the turnover percentage).

yeah plug n play wings who would be useful on any nba roster xp

lemon pepper

lol yes

24-6 on 9-14 FG, 6-8 3PT for james bouknight last night

i have no clue what average speed means in that context but the lakers only going 4.25 mph is hysterical

its funny how theyre so okd they mad anthony davis old by osmosis

being old is great, lower expectations, more spa treatments, built in excuse to save your energy for important shit

Pct time walking 68% Highest

lakers taking leisurely strolls around the court

got to conserve their energy for some half-assed jogging through a play-in game

lakers out here looking to play some 5 on 5 half court games with some walking between them

lol walk it over halfcourt

really too bad hes such a zero on offense

Matisse Thybulle is now the first player ever to have blocked 2 Steph Curry 3-point attempts in the same game @ESPNStatsInfo

Yeah, if he could even score 8-10 relatively efficient pts per night he'd be so good. But he really doesn't do anything else - doesn't rebound or get assists - just steals, blocks, and the occasional 3.

Hit two massive threes tonight

JVG was otm when he said Thybulle owes it to himself and the ball-watching world to become a serviceable offensive player so that he can actually play starter minutes. He really looked like Steph kryptonite tonight. otoh you could tell the sixers really went all in on not letting Steph have a game and get the record, don’t think they could sustain that level of energy for say a full playoff series.

thybulle and mikal prob the best two steph defenders in the league at this current moment

Jokic is the top LEBRON in the league

Top 30 in LEBRON pic.twitter.com/ktWFwerKKL

hmm i think thats incorrect surely lebron is the top lebron in the league

i think we need to prepare ourselves for the day when lebron is not LEBRON at all

seems like we're there. they prob expanded it to top 30 just to get him in there haha

tonight duncan robinson broke the heat franchise record for consecutive games played w/ 175

good shooter

Later tonight Curry will likely be 1st on both of these lists

Most 3s Ever
1. Ray Allen 2,973
2. Steph Curry 2,972
3. Reggie Miller 2,560

Highest 3P% Ever*
1. Stephen Curry 43.1%
2. Kyle Korver 42.9%
3. Steve Nash 42.8%
*Min. 2,500 3PA (158 players)https://t.co/Ty38qkvN1p

seems good. kinda cool he'll likely break it at MSG where he put the league on notice

aw look at all those baby faces

cuet lil guys. also a classic celebration doing the weird shimmy and completely ignoring drays hi5

the steph zone

jokic's numbers this year are just insane. the year AFTER winning MVP by a comfortable margin:

- most points per 100 possessions in his career
- most FTA/100
- most 3 pointers/100 (by a lot)
- most rebounds/100 (by a lot)
- fewest fouls/100
- highest FG%
- at or above career averages for 3PT%, assists/100

I don't subscribe to stathead but apparently only 3 players have averaged 35 points/100, 15 rebounds/100, and 10 assists/100. jokic currently is at 40.3/20.9/11.1

lol poor joker, and steph

Tell us: Who is the best current player in the NBA?

lmao

lol

a bunch of crusty dudes who dont even watch the game any more

its so clearly kd/steph/jokic/giannis in any order and then a drop off to whoever else

putting KD and giannis 1-2 is totally defensible. there’s just the one that really sticks out….

Anthony Edwards tonight: 38 Points 5 Rebounds 67% FG 10 Threes

The Lad is having some fun

The NBA 3PT shooting landscape is multi-faceted

⬆️⬅️ Good Shot Making, Low Shot Quality
⬆️➡️ Good Shot Making, High Shot Quality
⬇️⬅️ Poor Shot Making, Low Shot Quality
⬇️➡️ Poor Shot Making, High Shot Quality

dovetails with the recent ringer & athletic articles about how you can’t simply shot quality your way into good offense anymore bcuz every team knows to hunt threes and dunks/lay ups so more value is being placed on players who can consistently make “low quality” shots

obvs a lot of value in being able to consistently create ok shots too

its crazy everyone who agrees steph is the greatest shooter but i still feel like its underrated how much better he is than everyone else

isaiah thomas and talen horton tucker shot 2-24 and 0-14 from three last night. combined six points, four assists and three rebounds in 57 minutes

THT has been completely awful this year & may singlehandedly rank the lakers season given the guys they let go or didn’t acquire in order to keep him
