The nba isn't about PER or any advanced metrics the NBA is about 5 niggas having chemistry and being mature enough to handle a fucking season lol. Look at all the people on the leaderboard for those categories. No Golden State or Cleveland players.

Advanced stats are great for sports with larger rosters and more position types like baseball or football. But in basketball fuck PER. Wade had a PER in his finals vs Dallas that was better than Jordan does that mean Wade is the goat?

The Pelicans are a below .500 team. Boogie who has issues of his own and lacks maturity is not going to magically make this team a top tier contender.

Yes, yes it does

Lol bruh I just posted cause I thought it was interesting.

I dont think anybody said the Pelicans were a contender now but Davis and Boogie aint a bad place to start.

I dont even know where you were going on that wade point. PER shows efficiency doesnt mean he was better.

It's not about advanced analytics hustle it's about the chemistry durant has with steph and klay

I'd argue that warriors should stay with javale

You'd be wrong

You'd be wrong

That's fine with me if you think so

 

[qeezus_price]

I'd argue that warriors should stay with javale

I agree with you. He meshes pretty well with them, this is probably his best season to date.

 

[R.D.]

The defense suffers with Javale on the court

Constantly out of position, fouling, late to rotate...surprisingly just not a good defender

Zara more consistent and was playing his best ball b4 he went down

Of course you'd know that if you weren't a troll

 

[Beta]

Oh okay man

 

[Beta]

Smh @ me thinking basketball was on when I get home

Sighs

 

[its....JOHN B]

Oh okay man

Weak ass response, let's hear why you think that doofus should remain the starter

That was moreso a response to the "I wouldn't know that because I'm a troll" which doesn't make sense to me

But uh I don't have any real stock in this.I said it mainly because of pace and a better rim protector in the starting lineup I don't watch warriors games like that so I can't really say much. I might not be right but hey that's fine

 

[BlackAX410]

My TL going crazy cuz IT sent out a cryptic emoji eyes tweet (last time he did that we got horford) hopefully a butler deal is finalized

Utah is all-in to keep Gordon Hayward, but they also need to shed some salary before their army of young players ink pricey new deals. They’ve tested the market for Derrick Favors over the last few weeks, according to several league sources; Favors hasn’t been quite the same since coming back from injury, and Utah plays Favors and Rudy Gobert together for only 10 or 12 minutes per game.

Nothing really substantial but I'm a favors fan and I honestly forgot he existed

LMAO deadspin not holding back
