    Cup? First i quoted hoop when i entered this convo, so not sure how you think he is jumping in, when it was you who jumped in?


    Second. Did you see me ask him if he seriously thought the blazers dont watch film? I was questioning that opinion, if it were his, not agreeing.

    Now in this post you say you beleive he is putting forth an unfounded opinion.

    Would that be like how you assumed i assumed one way or another which is now causing this confusion and conflict or whatever?

    You telling hoop to stay in his lane is just more of the same crap different day.
    Him and i were discussing.
    You jumped in and i responded with respect. You twist my words around and he called you out on it.

    Then you tell him to stay in his lane?
    Own your shit man or stop fucking quoting and talking to me. Geez.....

    Sure. And i agree studying film 24/7 does no good if you dont know what to study and how to impliment the knowledge gained(if gained) from the film.

    But i still dont have an opinion, other than so far, based on the info available, it seems it has not been as high of a priority in the past as compared to after the NO series and what was learned from it.

    With that said, i still think the staff should know what to look for and how to get the players on that page. This is the top level. Elite. Nba. Hard to think they dont have a top tier film watcher knowing what to cut, edit and show, to explain opponent tendancies and how we should deal with them.

    Well not sure what needs clarifying that wasnt already made clear?

    If you need further clarifying please pinpoint what specifically and ill be happy to answer as i, and im pretty sure most others, thought i was pretty clear?

    Otherwise my opinion is not fully formed, but leaning towards the team not making film study as high a priority as it seems to be now.

    I asked you a fucking question. Notice i used this ????. You twisted it into a statement i made so you're the one twisting words. As for your whine about the stay in your lane, that was a parody off a recent commercial with a guy getting a tatoo and when questioned by the customer the artist repllies " stay in your own lane bro". Now quit tryinv to start shit with me once again.

    You stated you were leaning towards that they don't do enough film study. That is forming an opinion and obviously you trying to sit on the fence but you keep falling to the same side. What exactly lead you to your non opinion? :smack:

    Having an openly evolving opinion is not assuming. Its an opinion in the making based on the facts at hand, but the verdict isnt in yet due to lack of evidence from either side...so nothing is assumed yet.

    Probably best if he doesn't--it likely won't lead anywhere worthwhile.

    But i gave you an honest, respectful response.

    And already answered your question previously.

    All i know is what i have read on here and local media postings.

    Nothing concrete enough for me to assume anything one way or another, but to me so
    Far, the little evidence is that film watching is now a higher priority, which suggests in thecpast it wasnt.

    Yes i did. Yesterday. Read above. Last paragraph.

    If you have some link thst goes into the details of their film watching to better dissect what they are looking for then post it.

    If not, please let others form their opinions as to how they see it.
