Actually it doesn't...When over 60 percent of the players have been black for over 35 years, its odd that those players never translated into executive roles....

@ ernie johnson at the end of the video.
Charles only point was Morey being analytic but getting Harden, Howard and Josh Smith. Those are not analytics.
Rest Barkley sounding like typical jock from the backwoods.
Morey does sounds butthurt.

Charles is right and wrong. He is right about talent. Talent is what ultimately wins championships. It comes down to who has the best players on the court and whose coach can put those players in the best situations to succeed.
OTOH, hes wrong about player analysis because it can be a very helpful tool. However, advanced player analysis can also be a bad thing.
An example of advanced metrics working is when the Grizz figured out that they had to get rid of Rudy Gay because the way he was getting his points was hindering their offensive potential.
An example of advanced metrics failing is when Chris Grant drafted Dion Waiters because his advanced college metrics made him look like the second coming of Dwyane Wade.

Analytics you say? I still remember when John Hollinger picked the Jazz to beat the Lakers three years in a row 
many of the great coaches already knew anything analytics could contribute. that's because they knew their team and player strengths and weaknesses. they know how to coach players to be in a position for them to be successful and the team to be successful. they knew which guys to put on the court depending on the situation. that's the main reason why i'm inclined to agree with chuck. lenny wilkins, chuck daly, pat riley, phil jackson, pop...all these guys would tell you to shove that tablet with your fancy charts and decimal places right up your azz.
geek ass whiteboys 5ft 9 and under mad
morey is like 6'4"-6'5"
That's my point though. Front offices have been white washed.Actually it doesn't...When over 60 percent of the players have been black for over 35 years, its odd that those players never translated into executive roles....
people confuse the meaning of analytics....it's not just crunching data and allowing the numbers dictate who you play...it's staying ahead of the curve and developing new methods to keep you ahead of your competition. The Spurs and the Pats do a ton of wacky shyt we don't know about.

RC Buford said it best....
Analytics isn't the end all be all. It's a great tool when used with everything else.
