on the derozan tip, this is a cool list, love who's tied with MJ and Kobe for most career buzzer beaters:

reg season only maybe?
― Spottie, Sunday, 2 January 2022 07:46 (two years ago) link
no, the list includes the offs. I was shocked that Steph and Klay never got a buzzer beater!
― symsymsym, Sunday, 2 January 2022 07:54 (two years ago) link
my mistake, MJ is the all time leader with 9, I missed the one he had with the wizards. The guy who compiled the list wrote an article about everyone who hit 4 or more:

Played 2K22 far more than actually watching NBA this year, so it's funny to watch highlights and realize so many are actual players and not AI names completely imagined by the CPU. Josh Giddey, wha??! Max Strus??

still too early to say but after all the carlisle hysteria it’s possible they didn’t end up downgrading their coaching situation and *whispers very softly* may have even upgraded it
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 20 January 2022 06:51 (two years ago) link
I can’t believe it but it may be true. Even if it’s nothing more than just players buying in, that’s a major upgrade
― Spottie, Thursday, 20 January 2022 06:58 (two years ago) link
i don’t think kidd is actually a better coach than carlisle, but if kidd can get a roster that’s built entirely around offense to play sustainably good defense then it might be better for them in the long run. the defense will prob come down a bit but the offense should come up, so we’ll see where the level is at. right now their net rating is better than last year but not as good as two years ago. still a top 10 team as of now. the other question is how kidd coaches a playoff series and whether he has the strategic chops to make on the fly adjustments
