gonna be honest thats a very good play

So I guess Giannis did do a big jumper reformation going into this season. I haven't really paid attention to whether it's looking any worse this season, but it would make sense that his massive dip is him just trying something radically new (esp. if it was instituted right when Bud came in).

It's also bonkers that the whole WC is basically separated by 6 games

yeah its nuts, gotta think the dubs are gonna break out of the pack eventually but the rest of the picture who knows

lag∞n, Thursday, 13 December 2018 04:50 (five years ago) link

V cool that basically any team but PHX could make it. Not sure if there's ever been a legit 14-team conference race. Could see any of those bottom teams making it.

Warriors bad

Celtoes Adidas (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:26 (five years ago) link

wow damn just turned this on thinking the dubs wldve closed the gap

lag∞n, Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:31 (five years ago) link

They missed all the shots, is the problem here

Celtoes Adidas (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:39 (five years ago) link

gotta make shots i always say

steph has a weird lil moustache now, p cool

Oh wow the 76ers got cooked by dinwiddie

Celtoes Adidas (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:44 (five years ago) link

was just looking at that embiid had a big game w jimmy out

lag∞n, Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:45 (five years ago) link

76ers have some things to figure out for sure. Jimmy injury just delays that.

Celtoes Adidas (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:47 (five years ago) link

Kings v wolves was probably a fun watch 141-130. Bogdanovic has been really great since he came back from injury. Makes them that much better. Would be cool if they find a way to make the playoffs in place of, say... the rockets.

Celtoes Adidas (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:51 (five years ago) link

Also shumpert seems like a good vet fit there.

Celtoes Adidas (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 05:52 (five years ago) link

bogdan is a good offensive player

re lebrons shooting
http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/25513076/three-point-revolution-lebron-noticed

While James will never be a marksman of Curry's caliber -- who has never shot less than 41 percent from 3-point territory and is currently hitting 49 percent this season, James is hitting a respectable 37.1 percent this season (up from a career average of 34.4) on the highest volume of his career. That's better than the likes of J.J. Redick, Dame Lillard, Klay Thompson and Kevin Durant.

It's OK that James will never wrest the unofficial title of "Greatest Shooter Ever to Live" from Curry (although he is, surprisingly, second in all-time for playoff 3-pointers behind only Curry), just as Curry will never receive the same credit for his passing or overall command of a game on both ends that James does.

But James has entered into a realm of respectability from the outside that is a far cry from his reputation.

тпсбlack (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 16:51 (five years ago) link

He's a decent shooter. Which is what makes his relatively low FT% head-scratching. It's gotten worse over the years!

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:00 (five years ago) link

the FT thing is really weird. hes been pretty lucky that it hasnt cost him in a big moment

тпсбlack (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:02 (five years ago) link

free throws are almost like putting though, sort of different mental element to it compared to shooting in the flow of a game

No Smockin' (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:05 (five years ago) link

yeah i agree with m@tt... bron's mechanics always kinda come and go (bron watchers in the media have talked about this for years obv) and there's a lot more time to think when you're at the line

J0rdan S., Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:06 (five years ago) link

plus i think it's the same wrt putting where once you start having a problem with it, you start thinking about having a problem with it, which makes the problem worse which makes you think about it more which makes the problem worse

actually that's just more like life in general

No Smockin' (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:08 (five years ago) link

i still kind it kinda weird w bron tho cos hes so mentally strong.

тпсбlack (Spottie), Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:11 (five years ago) link

i also feel like lebron doesn't really give a fuck about like 90% of what happens in any given regular season game at any point... when he "needs" to make FTs he doesn't seem to miss them at any higher of a rate than any other player who isn't an auto 90% FT shooter

J0rdan S., Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:16 (five years ago) link

thing about brons shot is he makes as many as he does on talent not having good consistent form and its hard to talent in the high % of fts u need to theyre really unforgiving

is this true though? I feel like I can recall a bunch of missed clutch FTs

k3vin k., Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:39 (five years ago) link

even that game a week or two ago where the lakers won on outback or something was following a missed bron FT iirc

k3vin k., Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:39 (five years ago) link

it's def mental thing

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 13 December 2018 18:52 (five years ago) link

But I feel that can be combated by having a solid routine. I am the king of the yips but do well on in-game FTs cause I have confidence in my routine.

dinwiddie is a p cool player

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis

Dinwiddie on how he got hot: “If I hit two 3s in a row, I feel like Steph. So I hit a couple 3s, boy, I’m telling you, I felt like I was 6-3 and light-skinned. I wasn’t going to stop shooting after that.” #Nets

What possible purpose does it serve to release a statement like that?
