If I only checked the stats I wouldn't know how good of a rebounder Joffrey Lauvergne is

You're wrong about me not watching games, I look at facts therefore I see the game differently than you do
Yeah I'm sure a Laker fan posting in the Coliseum saying that the Nuggets are better without Mudiay, who just by coincidence was said to be better than Russel by a number of non Laker fans on this board, has absolutely no bias. The only fact that yo posted is that Jameer's low 30 shooting percentage from 3 is better than Mudiay's mid 20. How many Nuggets games you actually seen this season

mudiay needs to improve a lot and work hard. Or he will be a bum

I'm a Lakers fan who watches and understands basketball.

I was a Russell fan before he even declared for the draft so stop that. I knew he would be a star when i saw him at Montverde. The reason I'm a Russell fan is because he's skilled, much more skilled than Mudiay :yeshrug:

Hell if Mudiay was more skilled I would be a fan of his too

And the Nuggets DID play better without Mudiay. No matter what lie you try to tell, the fact will remain that they were playing better after he went out.

To answer your question I've seen less than 15 but more than 10 nuggets games this year because I'm intrigued by Jokic and Barton. How many have you seen?

I have seen every mudiay game and he tries the stat padding thing to increase his assits does not let the game come to him resulting in turn overs. Needs to work a lot breh. At the very least be patrick berverly by working on his defense

Not every game but I watch most of them it's easily over 25. So I'll follow up, how many Nuggets games have you seen since Mudiay went down and how many have you seen before his injury? The problem I see with a lot of Laker posters is their willingness to write off Mudiay and Okafor, knowing full well they don't watch those games and see the evolution

Did you think the Lakers should have drafted Porzingis BEFORE the draft or after the season started and the refs let him get away with over the back fouls to get put backs? :jbhmm:

This is kinda important

several times I've stated he was number two in my draft. I thought teams were jockeying to get him then Lakers didn't.. then Philly took okafor, then Phil the only one with balls actually took him and knick fans booed and Carmelo was upset..but I thought he was a great choice

no one knew porzingod was gonna be this good this fast

it was either okafor and russell, and i tihnk we made the right choice

watch the video where he's working out with his older brother and you can see its obvious he was going to be good. You could also see he was coachable. From a skill set perspective and rarity.. combined with the fact he was mentally interested and commited to basketball it was obvious

Highlights were wack as fukk.. His game looks too unpolished but I'll give him a pass since he's 19.

I'm not sure why you keep mentioning Beasley. like I said in the other thread I did like Beasley. was very high on him but that was ages ago and now im more leery about how certain type plaurrs translate and try see them in an as many settings as possible plus gauge how motivated they are to become good.
I was high on embiid too and he would have been my pick but I had no clue his injuries would be two years deep problematic.. but more concerning to me is the motivation issue I've mentioned that was what made a lot of talents like Beasley fail.
I was high on Beasley and from time to time I still try to think schematically how he can work
