Basketball is a team sport. Curry lucky to be on championship team. Put Dame on Warriors, they still win titles and win in 2016 because Dame wouldn't have choked in Game 7. He would've hit the three over Love and he would've won Finals MVP.
Answer to the original question: No. He can work out all day everyday and have all the muscles in the world but it’s his brain that he can’t work on. Zero feel for the game.
Maybe Meyers was better than the year prior. Both versions are below replacement value of a player on a minimum contract. So I fail to see why improvement in that context matters.
Has nothing to do with numbers. If you watched the games Nards played in without bias. Overall Nards was a better player than the previous two years. He showed over limited minutes he deserved a bigger role. However Ed was there and clearly was the better big. Therefore Nards had no place on the court without injuries. I don't like it because frankly I'm setting myself up to expect something out of Nards. When I have never once enjoyed him in a Blazer uniform. But Nards showed last year he deserved a role on the team. I am not biased nor am I irrational with my dislike of Nards. Unlike, frankly... You.
Well, I have been told several times that it does take bigs longer to develop. Look at Aytons shitty first game. 24/9. LOL, chump cant even get a double double
I do not like Nards. I'm one of the biggest haters on the guy. I'm just not going to be completely bias against him like some posters, and am willing to say he was better last year. Frankly because he was. Nard's overall game was better last year. He got exposed when he was on the court too long. But in limited minutes both sides of the ball he was better and not complete drift wood.
As someone who hates Nards on the Blazers. Even I can admit Nards was better last year. You can't because you're too obsessed with stats, box scores, and your irrational hatred of a player.
He looked better offensively, but I don’t know how you can objectively say he was better defensively. He looked as lost as ever and the numbers support it.
The mere fact that I remember a few times last year Nards was in position to contest a shot. Fail horribly at it. But in position non-the-less. Shows improvement. This is not something that happened the previous two years. As it's been said in this thread by someone arguing with me. The numbers were too small of a sample size to actually make a fair judgement. Therefore any numbers argument for, or against him is completely invalid. However this same person keeps going back to numbers. Just like you just did. Nards is going to get first look at the backup Center spot with Davis gone this year. It's things like actually being in the right spot on the court... That will keep me from making my first ever twitter account and getting it blocked by Nards.
