2 major takeaways from the first 15 mins of nuggs/hawks is 1) MPJ is good at offense and pretty bad at defense and 2) trae is hitting some 32 footers

a lot of it seems to be effort, just dying on screens and losing people in transition

I was watching the Blazers vs. Kings for a while and had to turn it off to avoid polluting my eyes with bad, bad, very bad hoopsing. Apart from Lillard and *maybe* McCollum, this Blazer team seems to have downgraded their roster shockingly during the off season. After making the WCF last season, I am kinda horrified at what Neil Olshey hath wrought. Lillard on court looks like a desperate man, caught in a living nightmare.

porter jr basically went from high school to the pros and has played like 10 competitive basketball games in the last 2 years, i wouldn't expect anything from him on defense for a few seasons

true
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 13 November 2019 06:48 (four years ago) link
part of me sort of hoped that all that time off and presumably all the practice with professional coaches/teammates would make him a little more ready than you’d think but no
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 13 November 2019 17:36 (four years ago) link
To me the thing about him is that he is HUGE and with the back injury he’s pretty upright. He actually does a pretty good job of challenging shots at the rim and likes to rebound. Long term he’s the power forward.
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 13 November 2019 17:49 (four years ago) link
yeah for sure
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 13 November 2019 17:57 (four years ago) link
He has the aura of a star player and pretty much every time he gets the ball a good shot happens

Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis (shoulder and rib soreness) will not play tonight against the Golden State Warriors, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.— Chris Haynes (@ChrisBHaynes) November 13, 2019

he saw how paschall plays and wanted to save his shoulders
the spurs need to pounce.
The Magic have reportedly expressed in trading for DeMar DeRozan, per @KevinOConnorNBA.— Hoop Central (@TheHoopCentral) November 13, 2019

i think gordon is more the need rn.

gordon has been horrendous so far, i think he might be injured
― micah, Thursday, 14 November 2019 00:06 (four years ago) link
yeah he’s a distressed asset rn but he’s a guy who can play both forward positions and shoot threes respectably
― i'm not a government man; i'm a government, man. (m bison), Thursday, 14 November 2019 00:10 (four years ago) link
the magic would have no reason to do that unless a pick or promising player (white?) in return was coming back as well
― de-mamba mentality (Spottie), Thursday, 14 November 2019 00:21 (four years ago) link
gordon is 24 and on a good team friendly contract
― de-mamba mentality (Spottie), Thursday, 14 November 2019 00:22 (four years ago) link
yeah and i think he can be good again and would fit well at sa. magic would be silly to trade bamba so early tho
― micah, Thursday, 14 November 2019 00:34 (four years ago) link
if the magic are prioritizing staying in the low end of the playoffs they should be very motivated to trade gordon for derozan.

in other news, the spurs will be extending their days under .500 after losing tonight to the KAT and wigdog wolves. really hoping they embrace the tank this year, and soon. this is not fun to watch.

has anyone else on the team touched the ball besides those two?

Why did the blazers get rid of so many guys
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 14 November 2019 17:40 (four years ago) link
they got sick of their all-defense no-offense forwards so they replaced them with all-offense no-defense forwards.

What in the world happened to Wiggins? Any of you hoop experts know if he changed something dramatically? Was it coaching? I had high hopes for him, being Canadian and all, and I had given somewhere around two seasons ago.

read some stuff that he's basically eliminated the bad long twos and is either trying to get in the pain or shooting a 3. from there other things are opening up. but yeah hes had good stretches before we're gonna need to see this for a while
