aight i see your shtick. You didn't read none of that. Not only that you apparently can't comprehend the titles of the links. The word "help" was clearly used in every instance. I'll be waiting all week for you to back up the shyt you said because nobody said that dumb shyt in support of analytics.

Nothing for me to back up,ive read his tweets before i know what he thinks and as i have stated im ok with analytics as a footnote but i think it is overstated how useful they are in basketball...

Without Tim Duncan they aren't who they are.They had a top 10 player of all time who's unselfish and coachable that's invaluable

The nba is the most simple sport..you need an all time great player and an all star or two to win a title these analytical guys are over complicating a simple game

Analytics helps you form the team AROUND those players. Analytics is what made Spoelstra realize that Chris Bosh's ability to stretch the floor gave his team a better offensive flow than his midrange to low post attacking style.

It's what shows the effect Diaw has on the Spurs offense that people don't see.

That's what I thought. You can't and won't back up your dumbass argument.

Charles Barkley right now is the most idiotic commentator the NBA has. And thats saying somthing with Shaq, Payton, etc

Analytics have the Rockets the envy of many GMs in the league. Let's stop the Morey hate.

Do you have anything to support what you're saying? Multiple franchises have won titles recently using the help of analytics but of course you focus on Morey. Seriously do you have ANYTHING to back up your argument other than ad hominem attacks because just like Barkley that seems like all you guys can do.

You think analytics made him realize hes a good perimeter shooting big man ? I think the fact hes undersized and can work better as a face up big since it worked for years before Miami probably had sumn to do with that....

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Can't believe how many people agree with him. Dumb as fukk

None of this actually takes away from Chuck's point tho...I'm sure analytics are helpful\useful....but those teams you name have GOAT players and coaches...Don't see why that's hard to understand...

Furthermore, in what capacity was analytics used....No one ever really states how they're used...

And lastly, is that white dude sure that the suns gave up 118 a game? and if so, how does that fare now as opposed to 20 plus years ago

Rockets haven't done anything to be envious of.
They haven't won anything with morey.

 

[Yayo Toure]

Barkley is telling the truth. Analytics will make you competitive to a degree but in the end talent wins. When the grizz or rockets win the title based on acquiring players on analytics let me know.

The Rockets haven't done shyt bruh.
