And yet there are people who claim he didn't deserve those MVP awards. He was doing this at the same time he was leading the league in assists and leading his team to the best record in the league. BNM
Fantastic write up. It's not hard to see Cj being a top 10 player very soon and easily the best player we have on the team
Nash was a little like Stockton. Both were such good playmakers, the average fan has a hard time remembering how good they were at shooting.
Didn't Meyers have a 50/40/90 season, but he didn't qualify based on shots made or games played or something? Talk about regression.
Of course, Stockton is the career leader in assists by a huger margin, but he is also the career leader in steals by an equally large margin. People who didn't see him play don't realize he was also a great defender. I think his durability is also overlooked. He played in all 82 games 16 times (as well as all 50 games in the 1999-2000 seasn) and never missed a playoff game. Counting playoffs,. he appeared in 1686 of a possible 1708 games. In 19 seasons, he played in every regular season and every playoff game 17 times. BNM
He didn't come close to qualifying. The qualifying standards are: 300 made FG 82 made 3FG 125 made FT Meyers totals were: 125 made FG 47 made 3FG 30 made FT Still, I'd gladly take that Meyers over 2016-17 Meyers. He also rebounded well that year (and the year before) and played well in the MEM series. Then we fired Kim Hughes... BNM
And, subtract him from that team and what do you have? You have the IDIOTS from NBA2K putting that team on the video game WITHOUT Nash... Yeah... That team is SHIT without him.
I hope we have 6-7 rotation players in double figures scoring...and CJ doesn't have t0 score 30 to win
We were lucky to have 2 or 3 last season so.....that's a good question....starters plus 6 man plus backup center.....great teams seem to have that balance..
Very wishful thinking. I think we'll have 4, maximum. Those guys would combine for ~110ppg if we had 7 average double digits.
I'm less concerned about Lillard jacking shots from 30 ft. Than I am Harkless/Aminu/Vonleh/Nards actually forcing their man to guard them. Simply because there were times where Lillard jacking that 30 footer was a better offensive possession than running a set and allowing the defense to double. To stay on topic ~ CJ will shoot a higher % 17-18 across the board due to having another player to play off of.
