He was -11 because when he was on the floor they got out scored by 11.

The reason he was able to score 22 pts was because he came off the bench going up against Ilyasova, connaughton, and robin lopez....all 3 guys aren't good defenders hence why he could score. The moment the starters came back Giannas, Brook, Bledsoe he couldn't score anymore. The reason they got outscored was because he Skal couldnt stop George Hill, Lopez and Connaughton from scoring. Connaughton is a g league esque player and was able to have his career high of 18pts because Skal was on the floor.

The lytics are correct

This wasn't a good example to try and discredit analytics

Lytics should be used as an analytical tool not a replacement for analysis

Wrong. Lytics is everything. It takes away the star factor and name brand that goes along with players.

Cats like Jamal Crawford and Melo still have that name brand factor. Lytics’ tell you they don’t ever need to touch the floor unless you are trying to get out scored.

Lytics will tell you replacing Aminu and Harkless with Melo and Mario is the dumbest thing a GM could do.

So MJ didn't want to pay Kemba's max but wants to trade for Drummond...not understanding how hard it is to sit down and stack picks while Batum and Zeller come off the books. Charlotte could be a destination given the chance, the city's dying for a good team so it's not the location or support. This is on No nikkas Jeffrey and Kupchak/Cho.

In other news, Detroit is still paying Josh Smith. First ballot HOFer (Hall of Finessers) in the rafters right next to Bobby Bonilla

Help me understand.

Why would we trade for Drummond when he's about to hit free agency and we're tanking for guys like Wiseman?

we give up what little assets we have to pay a center who plays average defense, takes dumb ass shots, is a turnover machine, and hasn't fundamentally improved his game in 3 years before the CBA comes up again because..... what? we need to be an 8th seed again? we need another late lottery pick?

if we wanted drummond, we would've traded for him last year while we had kemba - then made the playoffs and kept both. if we want drummond later, we can tank and then sign him without even giving up shyt.

so what the fukk you even talking about :mjtf:

and detroit is 4-10. we are literally better without him :mjtf:
