First they are made up stats, now you're just like "I don't care!". This isn't something subjective like an efficiency stat, this is simply the percentage of someones shots that are assisted.

Find me 1 person in the coli besides yourself that believes Lee can't create for himself.

So you didn't make the stats up, they're still misleading. Believe what you want tho. Soon we'll have a nationally syndicated game and you can watch what he does play for play.

I don't care if people agree with me or not, I didn't say he can't create for himself either, I said 70% of his shots were assisted.

I have league pass, I watch the Warriors play enough. I see a dude who excels in Pick and roll/pop, plays well from the high post (especially passing) and can take guys off the dribble every once in awhile. You're acting like he puts dudes in the torture rack, calls for the ball in isolation and goes to work.

For years I've been saying Dwights offense is ass, and people were like "but he scores 20ppg!" I don't need other people to agree with me to state my opinion.

A dominant defensive center has as much impact if not more than a high scoring point guard. We're talking about who can effect the outcome of a game more. Brandon Rush was our best perimeter defender. You take away our best perimeter defender as well as our best post defender and yet we're still one of the best teams in the west which brings me back to the initial topic, Mark Jackson should be the COTY as of today. A losing streak changes all of that but nobody expected much from this team without Bogut. Take away Marc Gasol from Memphis and see what happens, take away Tyson Chandler from the Knicks and see what happen. Take away Dwight from the.....well you get my point.

But 2 years ago we didn't have Noah for 34 games and we still went 62-20 best record in the league. 77% winning percentage against the West and it's centers.

Which goes back to the point of how great an impact Rose has and how great a coach Thibs is.

Damn, blackthoughts with the next level stan posts. Almost ignore list worthy.

 

[mastermind]

So Bogut+Rush don't equal D.Rose as far as impact on winning goes? There's only 1 guy on this roster that has been an allstar and that's D-Lee and he was a reserve in 2010. Thibbs has multiple allstars on his roster without Rose.

Blackthoughts is always going overboard with the shilling of the players on The Warriors. Tell us how Klay Thompson is such a great shooter.

So let's put it this way, name 4 power forwards in the league that are better at creating their own offense than David Lee is.

so we can agree beasley is a bust.?

I believe Tyson Chandler is as important to the success of the Knicks as Rose is to the success of the Bulls. It has nothing to do with Bogut being on my squad. I believe defensive dominant centers impact the game as much as if not more than high scoring point guards. Plenty of explosive point guards in the league but very few go to the finals being the best player on the team. Take Russy away from OKC and give them a center that controls the paint defensively and I say they have a ring right now. Miami couldn't eat againt Dallas in the finals because of Chandler. He made Miami a jump shooting team in those finals. The paint was on lock. Does that explain my theory?

 

[Majestic Pape]

So let's put it this way, name 4 power forwards in the league that are better at creating their own offense than David Lee is.

Dirk, Randolph, Pau, Bosh, Amare, KG, and Duncan (well, for those that consider him a PF) are all better at creating for themselves than Lee is. And that's not to say that Lee hasn't played better than them this season. But if I had to get it to a power forward in isolation, I'm passing it to all of them before I pass it to Lee; you can throw LaMarcus Aldridge in there as well.

 

[He Who Posts Well]

so we can agree beasley is a bust.?

Yep. File the paper work.
