@GOAT Stop looking at box +/- and watch some games :ufdup:
Shawn Marion with guard skills :sas1:
:what:Jackson had a good game against one of the worst teams in the league and you're tagging me?

If I were to tag you every time Tatum had an impressive game you'd be getting non-stop notifications from October until now.

:dead:

You are so out of touch with reality it's not even funny, Lopez spacing the floor helps Randle, I didn't say his play was all because of Lopez but you are flat out denying that Lopez has an effect on his game. I like how you left out the Lakers record in those games too, I'll help you out, in the 9 games Lopez missed they were 1-8, but he has no effect on Randle or the Lakers. Randle is a PF that needs a spacer next to him, if you play him at the 5 it's an L, if you play him at the 4 without a floor spacer it's an L.

And again, you said he gets his no matter what, tonight must have been the what.
Bottom line..randle finsihing 70% at the rim. You said his length would be an issue, you were wrong. Said he couldnt defend..wrong. just admit you were wrong. What does the team being 1-8 have to do with anything?. Thats how I know you are grasping for straws. The team was injured and is composed of young dudes, but you just look at stats so you dont have context to back up your bad argument. Its sad you have to wait weeks to post a rebuttal cause randle is so consistent offensively. Foot on your neck and you know it.

I never said brook spacing wasnt effective. I said you are overrating it because you refuse to give credit to randle for pride purposes. Randle is effective period. Most Laker fans have seen dude be effective in any situation and thus the praise. If you just look at stats you come up with these opinions. Men lie, women lie, numbers dont.


:mjgrin:

Check mate.

Oh like tonight, 5 for 13? Not very efficient. :sas1:

Jackson been having good games since January 2nd, I already told you. Something you'd know if you watched the players you talk about and didn't just run to nba.com/analytics to pick out some isolated stat you think supports your stannery. :coffee:

10/23 isn't efficient either, and apparenty this was one of his better games since you felt the need to tag me. I would never brag about a Tatum performance if he needed 23 shots to get 27.

I've watched Jackson throw up bricks all season long. His games make me appreciate having an efficient scorer as my rookie.

I tagged you because you just started talking shyt recently, and because another poster decided to *watch* Josh Jackson and came away impressed, as many others have.

2 for 2 from long range, is that efficient? :umad:

You haven't watched shyt and justify your shytty, stan-driven comments with irrelevant and isolated advanced metrics that ultimately don't mean a thing.

Oh, I've been talking shyt for a while. I don't respect inefficient scorers who can't shoot. And I've watched Jackson more than enough. He isn't better than Tatum. And it isn't close. This will be reflected on the all-rookie team when Tatum makes the 1st team and Jackson doesn't even make the 2nd. Will you also accuse the voters of being homers who don't watch the games then?

Yeah cause its a fact. National guys arent watching Suns games more than a handful times a year like your casual ass. The one constant is anyone who DOES pay attention comes away impressed. Pretending to pay attention so you can continue this stubborn charade doesn't count. :coffee:

:mjlol: I'm the homer but you're the one who thinks there's some nation wide agenda against Jackson/the Suns. Newsflash, if he was having an impressive rookie season people would be paying attention to him. Mitchell plays in one of the smallest markets on a team no one expected to be good. Markkanen plays for a garbage tanking team with no elite prospects outside of him. Kuzma plays in the shadow of Lonzo Ball and no one cared about him until summer league. Jackson was a big time prospect since HS and a bunch of people considered him the best player in the draft. He's not getting attention because he's had a mediocre rookie season. Stop.

:mjlol: if you think he deserves any consideration over Tatum for 1st team. Thats beyond homerism.

Utah's in the playoff hunt and Mitchell is ROY. Markkanen is a Euro Porzingus clone. Kuzma plays for the Lakers who think every 20 year old that ever hit a jumper for them is the future.

I didn't say there was any nationwide agenda, that's another dumb strawman you just made up. Fact is the national guys don't spend much time watching the team w the worst record in the league. Also first impressions go a long way (see: Tatum) and Josh looked like he was headed for straight up bust territory until 2018. Since January he's totally turned it around, scored in double figures constantly, percentages went up, numbers up across the board, he hung 36 on Golden State, put 27 and what would have been the game winning clutch JUMPSHOT on Houston, put up better numbers than your boy in their game last week and has been one of the best rookies in the 2nd half of the season. The overall negativity you've displayed would only be used by a clueless casual that said some dumb things and is now too stubborn to admit ignorance. :coffee:

Russ is shamefully and desperately chasing Another season of averaging a triple double with another 16 boards tonight.

Anyone have an idea of what he needs to average these last 3 games? I think he needs to average 15 each game


He's at 9.9 rebounds and 10.1 assists. Over 82 games he needs 8.2 rebounds above ten and 8.2 assists below ten to get it. three games left to do so. I assume he needs 38 rebounds and 22 assists over the next three games. He's shamelessly hunting for the stats. He's definitely trying to get it
