Random NBA Observations 2014 - 2015

I guess...

56.3% opponent FG% at the rim for Kanter and a 107 defensive rating on the season.
48.8% opponent FG% at the rim for Drummond and a 100 defensive rating on the season.

Drummond defensively is on the second tier below guys like Hibbert, Bogut, Gobert, Ibaka, but he's several levels above where Kanter is.

So much wrong in this post.......

You can disagree but this is true. They all had good numbers but they struggled to play winning basketball and it took time to get to that point. It takes awhile for PGs to get accustomed to the pro level and develop a play style that works for them

edit: I will say that Tyreke is better than I gave him credit for earlier that's my bad.

Forgot how much better he's played this season than last year

Them numbers dont always pass the eye test. I remember dmo was at the top of that stat for opponents fg% at the rim and i feel dmo can be very underwhelming defending in the paint

No, Rudy Gobert has been the top guy since like November, Bogut/Hibbert were second.

I don't care about eye test either, the Rockets are 10th defensively so somebody is protecting the rim, the Jazz were 27th with Kanter and the Thunder's defense has gotten worse with him.

KD was right about the clips that's for sure

Well he was up there. You dont see him anywhere up there? That stat was announced by broadcasters during one of their national televised games

. Well i checked and hes at 46% but earlier in the season i remember it was reportedly better

what he say?

 

[CarltonJunior]

He said "They cry too fukking much"

 

[pete clemenza]

Who else gone take em?

Blake shoulda gave up the ball on that steal.

I just dont get milking the clock for the absolute last shot.

i just dont get how Blake Griffin has zero post gm. What happen to the bank shot? The left hand hook? He couldn't do sh1t in the post

He's rusty.. give hiim a game or two. But yeah that CP3 dribble out the shot clock to either lose the ball or shoot a sh**ty last shot gots to go

Clips should trade Blake and get a large hull for him. Replenish the team.
