MDA has had success in multiple locations. He's not the worst candidate. He'd definitely unlock supernova Dame.
i wouldnt like to see nurk become like capela or gobert offensively that would be wasting of his talent
Pace and Efficiency Part 1: Measuring and Predicting NBA ... https://thedatajocks.com › models-and-nba-pace-stats Seems pace is usually measure by an average of both teams? Look at their model and stats...
pace for the game is both teams, because each team is getting the same amount of possessions per game. But then you take an individual team's pace over their season.
What's funny about the way the game has changed, those super fast, 7 seconds or less Suns would rank dead last in pace this season.
Just so there’s no confusion, the article mentions that the serious interest is from D’Antonis side right now, and it’s TBD whether Portland feels the same. It also reiterates Olsheys specific interest in Billups.
I'm not sure how Olshey could even spin a D'Antoni hire after saying defense would be a priority in his latest press conference. If he's trying to prove the roster is built for defense, hiring MDA would be about as cocky of a move as a GM could pull off.
Part of that is the other team's pace also impacts the number. It's total possessions per 48 minutes. If the other team takes 20+ seconds per possession - the number of possessions is lower - thus reducing the pace.
If Darvin Ham, David Vanterpool, Ime Udoka and Becky Hammon aren’t on whatever bullshit list our fucktard GM puts together then what the fuck are we even doing?
