    Minimum 100 minutes on the court together........You know how important chemistry out on the court is. Amazing that our BEST is barely better than the Spurs WORST! Screen Shot 2015-12-29 at 1.15.29 PM.png

    Can you please provide the details of this breakdown? I am confused as to hw the two are picked. Obviously Harkless and Aminu are not our best players. I would think CJ/Dame would be our duo? How was this compiled?

    Any chance we can trade for Duncan and Ginobili? They're getting a little old so we should be able to get them for cheap.

    The worst duo of the Blazers broadcasting crew is HCP/Rice with a NetRtg of -40.

    The best duo is MB and the Captain. They have a NetRtg of +30.

    You can make stats say whatever you want. Honestly, people have done it. I will say that I do like the Combo of Harkless and Aminu playing together (Aminu at the 4 spot of course).

    Ha! Good for Papanikolaou. AND Bjelica.

    Funny to see the same player in both pairs (Suns, Lakers).

    Since it indicates 'Net' rating I'm going to guess it is the combination of Offense/Defense rating with the highest 2 selected. Dame/CJ are really high offensively but brutal defensively which is why you see Green/Iggy as the top 'Net' above Curry/Thompson or Curry/Green.

    Just a guess....

    Rating is yes net points per 100 possessions.

    CJ & Meyers are highest with a +6.0 in 806 minutes
    CJ & Vonleh are lowest with a -3.9 in 826 minutes

    Our four lowest duo's all have Noah Vonleh. Lowest non-Vonleh duo is Crabbe & Ed Davis -1.1 in 1094 minutes

    Crabbe & Hendo are 2nd +3.2 in 738 minutes
    Aminu & CJ are 3rd +3.0 in 1561 minutes
    Dame & CJ are 4th +2.7 in 1462 minutes

    I love it that in HCP's original post the third best duo was Jokic/Papanikolaou. And apparently Denver loved the combination so much they waived Papanikolaou.

    Yeah having a +/- stat after 100 minutes has so much random noise its almost meaningless. Once you get to over 500 minutes it does become significant though so its interesting to see now.

    I thought it was odd how Dame isn't in any of our top 3 lineups while CJ is in two of them. Sometimes I wonder if CJ will be the superior all around player in a couple years. Fun problem to have.

    Note that Curry is not in GState's best duo...

    Will the trade machine work on Meyers and Crabbe for Duncan and Ginobili?

    He's damn close. Steph's in 3 of GS 6 best duo's all outscoring opponents by 20+ points.

    1. Green & Iggy +24.8 in 948 minutes
    3. Steph & Iggy +23.5 in 940 minutes

    Dame's in only 2 of our 7 best duo's and 3 of our best 13.
