I slept even during the rose years. He was overrated.
He could jump on a fast break but still can't shoot to save his life. I have a 6th grade daughter who was 6 for 9 on 3's a couple games back.
Check his mid range game, even as a rookie it was elite. I can provide you with heat maps if necessary.
I'm not sure this account isn't Jerry Reinsdorf
If you are in fact Jerry, sell the team or die already you fucking prick.

Because of his athleticism, his on-ball D is good. His off-ball D has improved but needs to continue improving.

Re: NBA Thread
His on ball defense is bad and his off ball defense is a horrific joke. That a large contrast exists between the two does not mean "bad" is somehow "good".DWFB wrote:verb_to_trust wrote:Zach is still garbage on defense dude

Re: NBA Thread
Describing anything Lavine does on defense as "good" instantly indicates a fundamental misunderstanding of the concept and execution of defense.

Re: NBA Thread
let me test the waters here a little bit. Will you 2 concede that Kris Dunn is a very good to great defensive player?

Re: NBA Thread
Instinct, alertness and superior athleticism. It doesnt take much for nba players to steal the ball well. Ut some do it much better than others, like kris. He was a safety when growing up and it shows on the court.verb_to_trust wrote:Because he overplays passing lanes to get steals? He's bad at basketball. Fuck Kris Dunn.

Re: NBA Thread
Coach Egghead's scheme is to trap the ball, which does generate some easy turnovers but is also why the Bulls have one win against a .500 team all season. ONE!! Good teams makes an extra pass and then decide how to score from there, whatever their preference happens to be.DWFB wrote:Instinct, alertness and superior athleticism.

Coach Egghead is a term of endearment compared to what he deserves unless his soul purpose based on orders from above have been to tank.

Re: NBA Thread
Haha yeah and thats freakin hilarious. Im not sure laurie is a total dud or what. They should move at least him and porter since they cant trade the whole team but they won't get much for those 2. I heard its a sucky draft year too. They would prob end up with 7th pick for the 3rd time in a row anyway no matter how low they rank.

Re: NBA Thread
Laurie needed a real organization to develop him. It's sad really, he's worse than he was as a rookie and going into a prove it year next year, which he won't. It's going to be a Niko Mitotic type situation.

Kenny Smith begging for the judges to walk off and just let it end in a tie was annoying af. Gordon's leg didn't even clear Tacko.

Yeah. I've been to see bands at Schubas before and No Dunks was the most packed out I've ever seen the place. We sat by Trey Kirby's friends, who told us some pretty funny college stories about him. Weird moment was a guy who had a Leigh Ellis tat on his calf.Monkey_Driven wrote:You went? Nice!verb_to_trust wrote:No Dunks at Schubas tonight was a real treat
