Random NBA Observations 2016 - 2017

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

I don't know how many more times i can watch danny green in a spurs jersey...

Dude is hands down the worse player in the nba...

Green is shootng 39% from behind the arc on nearly 5 attempts, he's one of the better off-ball players, as well as being a great defender (defending the best guard threat almost every night). Not even close to being in the discussion of worst players in the league.

@tremonthustler1 have you noticed? Noah Vonleh is starting to play well That trade for Big Nurk seems to have helped him a lot.

I mean he is and was a project+he's still 21. People just don't want to give projects time anymore because the concept either comes off outdated to them or they're impatient.

It's why people have already given up on Exum. Some guys take a few years to get going. It's possible they never get going, but you still need time to come to that conclusion.

Im not looking forward to the day that all these Bucks players hit their primes

Can't be wrong about something else you prove the team is just as good in transition when he doesn't get the rebound as they are when he does and I'm about 99% sure they don't got a stat for that so you can't even find it.

Westbook averages 6.9 fastbreak points per game this season (while grabbing 8.8 defensive rebounds)
Westbrook averaged 8.2 fastbreak points per game in '14/'15 (while grabbing 5.4 defensive rebounds)

Fact: Westbrook scored more points in transition when he averaged nearly 40% less defensive rebounds. Go and marinate on that.

You mean Westbrook averaged more fastbreak points per game when he had better teammates?

You telling me Westbrook is the one scoring on all these fastbreaks and not others he passes to while running them to "statpad" his assist total?

Nah. Nice try though. :kobe3:

I don't know he produces a lot of assists off his transition opportunities as well though.

Hard to gauge whether Westbrook stat padding his boards helps OKC's offense any more than a big grabbing it and just quickly flipping it to him.

Another terrible loss by my spurs

Why this nikka has no conference finals appearances exhibit 843:

 

[NoMorePie]

Randolph throws ball out of bounds = Grizzlies ball
Marc whacks Pau in the face = No call
Conley blatantly fumbles with the ball while walking with it setting upt he play - No call

Spurs playing like trash and all but refs come on man

You mean to tell me you don't know what the fukk you're talking about, because that was the season that Durant only played 27 games and OKC had lineups that consisted of: Ibaka, Roberson (a worse version of himself now), Collison, Perkins, Adams (a worse version of himself now), and bum ass Waiters. The same OKC who had a worse win percentage in '14/'15 than this season, the same OKC who didn't even make the playoffs.

Nah. Nice try though.

Nah. Nice try though. :kobe3:

This doesn't even make any sense, especially since you just said he had better teammates in '14/'15.

Nah. Nice try though.

Another terrible loss by my spurs

Had Kawhi not run like God for a 10 game stretch where he basically singledhandedly saved them from losing 3 straight games (pelicans/twolves/rockets) the general public would be viewing this team a lot differently.

I personally don't think they're that good. This is really who they are and just like we did last year we're going to see it in the playoffs (of course Durant being hurt throws a wrench in that).

Been saying it all season: Spurs are frauds

Their guard play is

Curry's been lookin like hes getting that magic back.
