If I did my math right over the last 5 games he's averaging 32ppg, 9 assists, 48%Fg, 38%3fg. Some of the best numbers of his career, while losing 4...
I think Mike D'Antoni is trolling us. Because he just described his tenure in Houston.
I think it kind of is, to be honest. Teams are just jacking up so many three pointers now that honestly, I don't know that even a defender like...
That's moving the goal post a bit, isn't it? People say he's a bad coach because we flame out in the playoffs. I point out Stotts gets the most of...
You can run an iso-heavy offense and still be a high scoring team. Houston is second in the league in scoring and are ridiculously iso-dependent....
What players aside from the three I identified have been really held back by Stotts? I understand you disagree with his coaching because of playing...
I think this is by far the best argument I've read for changing coaches. I remember reading in Larry Bird's autobiography that he felt after 3...
You seem to be saying that a coach who can get the most out of his talent is good for rebuilding teams, but not for contending teams? That seems kind...
I think he's in the upper third. He does a good job of developing young guards, he's resurrected careers with guys like Melo, Whiteside, Nurkic,...
I think Portland is much more patient with both competent and incompetent coaches. Stotts is a competent, if not great, coach. But we spent a decade...
CJ is a much better three point shooter than Ellis was, and frankly a better player. Ellis was a better passer and much better at drawing fouls...
I'm right there with you on shitty contracts and mediocre talent. I'd add badly fitting talent--CJ should've been traded years ago for a player who...
After he turned 30 he seemed to go in rapid decline. He's not alone, though. There are 192 guys in total over 6'8 in the league. There are only 20...
From an entertainment perspective, it's been more fun watching Whiteside resurrect his career. The enthusiasm, the smile, the rebounding, the...
Perfect explanation. Besides the 76er's, he'd also fit along star players where the ball dominant player is over 6'5. So he could fit with the...
I don't think CJ's relationship with Dame is truly extraordinary. I've listened to CJ's podcast, and he clearly likes and respects Dame, but so does...
I think he may be like a better perimeter shooting Mo Harkless. Here's the comparison. When he's on, he's surprisingly good, and when he's not, eh,...
Does a Gary Trent thread have to become a CJ thread? I guess if we are going down that road, I'm all aboard us trading CJ for Tobias Harris over...
Parasite is the best picture of last year, and rightly deserves the Oscar. My second favorite film of the year is Jo Jo Rabbit. It's probably the...
The first time I saw Trent on the court, I was shocked at how quick he was to shoot. He gunned and gunned and gunned, and frankly I thought he'd...
Separate names with a comma.
