why is adams so bad in the advanced stats

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Wednesday, 1 June 2016 23:52 (seven years ago) link

advanced stats suck at evaluating centers also he wasn't that good until late in the season + playoffs

ciderpress, Wednesday, 1 June 2016 23:54 (seven years ago) link

he was really inconsistent all year.

Spottie, Wednesday, 1 June 2016 23:55 (seven years ago) link

i always believed in him the archives will show

lag∞n, Wednesday, 1 June 2016 23:58 (seven years ago) link

he rebounded at a much higher rate in the offs is the biggest thing

feel like he's a younger version of current boguts.

kinda get you here but he's so much stronger. that under-the-basket reverse one handed dunk he does is a legit fatality

"they got tables? tables on planes? that's amazing."
cf Adams' "Perkins' silverback" anecdote with his later "fast little monkeys" comment.

xp nice as those are (and he gets more elevation than adams), they don't quite have the ferocity of some of SA's playoff dunks
think i saw about eight of these:

he's really strong, and only 22

dams is great feel like he needs to add one more thing to his game to be elite. he prob could have some playmaking ability if he played on another team.

imo a little david west style elbow jumper would be perfect

and yeah playing for carlisle or stotts

Not that this has anything to do with anything, but sometimes I look at the halftime score and don't watch the rest of the game just because I care. So. Much.

Was just thinking this, basically that short jumper ibaka used to use before they shoved him out to the line, could be a good option for Russell drives that get squashed or just a way to add some shell game to the p-n-r with Russ

i kinda love centers who never ever shoot from further than 3 feet

lag∞n, Thursday, 2 June 2016 15:54 (seven years ago) link

its happening - the finals

moullet, Thursday, 2 June 2016 16:09 (seven years ago) link

nervous

marcos, Thursday, 2 June 2016 16:13 (seven years ago) link

russ was feeding adams a lot near the hoop ... strange floater game iirc

moullet, Thursday, 2 June 2016 16:13 (seven years ago) link

adams also has a pretty fundamental post repertoire tho he only gets to try it out every second game

micah, Thursday, 2 June 2016 16:26 (seven years ago) link

the fundamental thing about steven is that he is a star

there's no denying

moullet, Thursday, 2 June 2016 16:35 (seven years ago) link

fact

At this point in his career, he's probably New Zealand's most successful NBA player ever already.
