hawks are downright murderous and aside from not getting rebounds and putbacks they prob could get I see no major flaws in their game

even tho this is the celtics they're facing, so not a major challenge, they're resting korver and al and still look incredible, their ball movement is dynamic as hell.

hawks on pace for 60+ wins, COTY race is bud vs kerrpop shouldnt have been so generous, now all his proteges are killing it

well to be fair, that shit is not his fault and also they are playing....something better than horrible right now

oh definitely. none of that team's problems are identifiably caused by him. he's just in a terrible situation

what is wrong with the bulls u guys
― Clay, Thursday, 15 January 2015 03:50 (nine years ago) link
idk if anything is specifically but the wiz in particular seem to have their number, know how to fuck with their defense
I do however know what's right with the blaze tho they're amazing even if the clips have the edge at the moment

ty ty, v kindstotts has to be in the convo for COY too, the blazers defensive improvement this year is unprecedented

they have one of the worst starting point guards in the NBA and a coach who has no control over him
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:17 (nine years ago) link
I think that's a bit strong
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:24 (nine years ago) link
rose is definitely not back to his MVP year levels and he's had a hard time diversifying his offensive production to include threes and other shots outside of the paint but he doesn't seem like clueless w/r/t running the floor and passing
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:26 (nine years ago) link
feel like numerous starting PGs inside the east and even outside are far worse than rose by multiple standards. fucks sake, elfrid payton is a starting point guard in the east.

i get the sense that lamarcus doesn't respect blake much but i guess that's just the way it is

what's the deal with nic batum???
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:31 (nine years ago) link
but like he seems to take some sort of personal joy in backing down on blake and putting points on his face xp to self
― Clay, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:31 (nine years ago) link
batum is having an off year offensively but that little stretch was surreal
looks like he's grabbing at his wrist, he's been nursing a wrist injury for awhile

he's a terrible defender who chunks up tons of bad shots at a terrible percentage
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:35 (nine years ago) link
other than players starting merely due to injury there have been only a couple worse starting PGs this year
I would say Burke, Calderon, Nelson, Payton and Cole are the only worse "true" starting PGs this season, and I'm conflicted about Payton.
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:40 (nine years ago) link
evan turner is worse by a significant margin

not this season
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:46 (nine years ago) link
Rose has played 30 games, his season is what it is at this point and if you want to know what's wrong with the bulls there you go
I mean it's cool that he breaks down the defense and creates OREBs I guess
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:47 (nine years ago) link
well that's the real thing - he is not a great defender and that's never been a huge part of his game but considering how thibs's system works does he need to be? I don't think he definitively is the thing that's causing them to lose the games they've lost
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:51 (nine years ago) link
Calderon has been downright shameful
― Spottie, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:51 (nine years ago) link
like they're not my team and I'll shed no tears if they fail in the playoffs, but them, these hawks and the wiz are the only east teams I'd give a chance in hell of making and potentially winning a finals matchup
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:53 (nine years ago) link
i have faith that calderon would be back to himself if he were playing for pretty much any other team, but he does seem more like a featured backup these days

Re Blake. There are a LOT of dudes that take the matchup with Blake very personally. Probably cod he acts like a baby
― Spottie, Thursday, 15 January 2015 04:59 (nine years ago) link
god that blaze effort to keep their possession alive was kinda beautiful even tho it didn't work
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 15 January 2015 05:01 (nine years ago) link
Blake relies on that 'jump' shot way too much this year
― Spottie, Thursday, 15 January 2015 05:02 (nine years ago) link
i wanna say i remember one game between portland and the clips where aldridge had a big game and someone asked him about the matchup with blake and aldridge said something like "he made my job easy tonight." i just like how guys seem to relish beating up on blake.

it's a 30 game sample where he's been legit awful for like 25 of them! I mean he's shooting like 39% and playing no defense and turning it over what can you say.

xxp aight. but I'm not counting out the possibility that he's a difference-maker for them come playoff time.
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 15 January 2015 05:38 (nine years ago) link
it seems like they've come back from 10 down in the fourth in half their wins this year
like i was never remotely concerned this wasn't going to happen, it's just how things play out &&& also dame xp

Dames 4th q dominance is something to behold
― Spottie, Thursday, 15 January 2015 05:40 (nine years ago) link
dame is one of those guys that makes you believe in the existence of clutch/intangible shit, and in his case it's actually statistically valid bc he is a proven factor in fourth quarters
