i think i just expected him to be out of the league soon after his hawks stint?
― It's the Final Cluntdiwn (Spottie), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 00:30 (two years ago) link
hoping he will tear apart the lakers from the inside this time tho.
― It's the Final Cluntdiwn (Spottie), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 00:31 (two years ago) link
if you go by all star game selections his 8 put him in the 50s on that list
5 of which are first team, which puts him in the 20s, even more impressive considering there’s only 1 center spot. an open and shut case if you ask me
I see the argument for reggie for sure but the nature of a list like this is lots of good and important players are going to be left off. as I alluded to the real answer for who to leave off would be some guy from the 50s or whatever but it’s so hard to compare those early guys to guys from today. apparently the voters felt the same way because everyone seemed to just grandfather the old list in
other than dwight tho there probably isn’t an obvious snub out of current players. simmons voted for luka and jokic, which you can definitely make the case for either way. lowe apparently voted for iguodala, which…
― mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 00:36 (two years ago) link
they literally grandfathered the old list in, only voted on the new guys

no apparently they actually voted for all 75 and that’s just the way it turned out!

not what i read, also its not possible

where u read that, simmons said on his pod the thing I said
― mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 00:42 (two years ago) link
I mean the thing you’re saying would make way more sense
i dont remember maybe they said it on tnt but anyway theres no way for a revote to turn out exactly the same just not feasible
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 26 October 2021 00:43 (two years ago) link
maybe simmons thought they were supposed to vote on them all and they just ignored him lol

the one way I could see it making sense is a bunch of guys just not knowing how to compare the eras and just voting for basically all of them
― mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 00:47 (two years ago) link
maybe there was something on the ballot that made it easy to do that idk

I think people showed screenshots etc and there was basically a drop down menu of every player in league history
― mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 00:50 (two years ago) link
you know I’m actually surprised more players like klay and kyrie didn’t make it given the composition of voters was so weighted toward current players, I bet there was some pitchfork ish where the league fudged with the results after

giannis FT shooting this year:

yeah apparently he has a whole new routine
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 26 October 2021 02:17 (two years ago) link
Maybe so but friendly reminder that Giannis is a 72% career free throw shooter. Those #s are exactly in line. It’s just in the playoffs where he falls off
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Tuesday, 26 October 2021 02:30 (two years ago) link
he's down from well over 10 seconds to 3 seconds or so, there's no reason this can't stick playoffs or not
― call all destroyer, Tuesday, 26 October 2021 02:57 (two years ago) link
he was also below 70% each of the last two seasons so this would be an improvement
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 26 October 2021 03:55 (two years ago) link
Maybe he unlocked something in the finals

dwight's last two all-nba selections were from when he was on the lakers and the rockets, there's no way he was one of the best fifteen players in the league those seasons. players like andre drummond and andrew bynum were also on all-nba teams just for being centers who were half-decent.

all those sentences are reasonable in isolation, but the list of guys who have made 5 1st team all nba are like a really small number of guys, a real exclusive bunch
― mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 26 October 2021 05:48 (two years ago) link
yeah like despite dwight having a disappointing career relative to expectations he's definitely one of the 75 best nba players ever.you just wish he had maximized his talent (like say damian lillard did).

Players get tired and/or start playing tighter D, generally?
2nd half of the season looks more like the playoffs (half-court offense, conservative) than the first half?

There was one point late in the game where the Pels were in rotation and Dray was wide open at the top of the key for a three. Dyson Daniels was supposed to rotate to Dray, but he didn’t even bother, just went to cover the next pass.
