billionaire techbros club - 2016-17 NBA regular-ass season thread (the first of a series)

I had no idea Tavares was a free agent, that would have been a very interesting move earlier in the season

In "clutch time" (defined as a five-point game inside five minutes), Westbrook leads the league in points per 100 possessions (74.3), shooting 44.6 percent from the field and OKC is a plus-21.7 per 100 possessions with him on the court in such situations.

All clutch stats are pure variance really. Even with the massive usage sample for Westbrook.

It would be amusing if Gobert won dpoy after somehow not being the all-star on his team

some CP stuff

love this article

the game theory stuff is sick, he's so smart

love this too

These opportunities don't just materialize. They develop. Their roots stretch back over seconds or minutes or entire quarters – if not further. When they were in New Orleans together, Paul used to call up now-Nuggets coach Mike Malone on off-nights to riff on the latest in League Pass. His Clipper teammates say Paul is liable to ask if they saw some random move from a completely irrelevant preseason game. "All I do is watch basketball," Paul said. "Seriously."

if paul hadn't missed that time he'd be legitimately in the MVP discussion

It's strange how Paul has become so underrated. I despise him so it doesn't bother me but it's really dumb.

Like I'm seeing people arguing that Lillard is better, come on

CP3 is a Ty Cobb / Pete Rose kind of figure. He's HOF 1st ballot material, but he is easy to despise.

untimely injuries have hurt his standing quite a bit. also his box scores rarely wow the layman

haha matt i didn't know you hated cp3, i thought you were love the sinner hate the sin with him

It's strange how people decided that this is the shameless flopper they'd hate tho. It's about the lack of titles I guess.

I don't think there's anyone who flops as much as CP3 that I like other than Rodman.
