For all the "advanced stat" nerds you figure they would have a stat that tracks the average points off of a steal or block a player gets. On blocks for example, most players just swat it out of bounds. So sure you get a block in the stat column, but did it lead to anything? If it immediately went back to the team you blocked, no it didn't. It's a useless stat.

I want to say Spurs are a contender this season, but I think their 3 point shooting is going to plummet in the playoffs much like OKC's did, and they don't have the iso play to make up for it. Wolves are probably their worst matchup, followed by Denver and OKC if the latter 2 are healthy.

people always forget that Hali was considered injury prone early in his career.

Curry only didnt get traded to the bucks, because they didnt want an injury prone player and were dumb enough to think Monta Ellis was better upside.

Steve Nash was injured for like almost half of his early career, and didnt actually get to show off his value till he was like 26, 27, and by then it was already the Dirks' team and Nash didnt get enough touches to make his impact.

Retard non ball knowers all doubting Garland, but theres a real world where he follows this same trajectory. The guard labeled "injury prone" for unlucky problems not of their own making, being traded to another team either in his prime or right before his prime...and the rest is history.

I wouldn’t be shocked if Cam’s never a true first option on a championship team, or never averages 30, but I would be shocked if he’s as destructive of a defender as Carlos, or isn’t one of the best playmaking and rebounding 4s in the league from day one. Just a much more well rounded game than Carlos, but in terms of scoring Carlos was star level so I won’t argue that Cam will definitely be better in that respect

That’s fair, he was an elite scorer so ‘role player’ wasnt really the right term, I just don’t see Cam having the same deficiencies even if he doesn’t reach some big time shot creator ceiling

The offensive floor is too high, his defence would have to be legitimately terrible for a non-starter outcome. I dont see it, he’s a much better athlete than people claim

Not all tumors are the same, it depends on where it is, what it's attatched to, and the physiology of the person. It did require medical attention, but you can treat tumors in various ways, including medication, which yes could have killed it in it's early stages. There are companies who sell the pharmacueticals for pigmented villonodular synovitis, which is what this micro tumor was. It's likely been in his knee his whole life, but so small it is undetecable. He probably knew his whole time on Memphis, but it never stopped him from playing before. All this to say, it was not an emergency medical situation. He actually could be back playing in 3 weeks, but the Jazz still won't play him, because they are tanking. Try to be respectful when having a discussion, it makes it easier for others to take you seriously.
>>
>>153649452
He only found out cause they did a physical when he got traded. Why are you making shit up about it being there his whole life and him knowing about it? You're literally insane.
>>
>>153649461

>him not knowing about it
It was literally a micro tumor, retard. Yeah it either got missed or when detected it's such a nothingburger the surgery wasn't worth it when he was on Memphis. Do you even know how inconsequential this tumor was? He could have never gotten it removed his whole career and played the same. Read a book dumb nigga

I’m sure Cam won’t be this level of net zero, even Sengun is a neutral defender

What am I making up exactly? I'm speculating, sure, but it's a fact players take physicals with their teams yearly, so it's unlikely Memphis didn't know about it.

Youre so fucking dumb you think a tumor doesn’t grow. It’s literally a tumor in his knee how is that inconsequential? Youre the one that needs to read a fucking book. Ill give you a suggestion: read the fucking dictionary and look up what benign means and what it doesnt mean. Your dumb ass thought it meant no danger or some shit. Fucking retard

You are angry. Try to remain calm. Tumors do grow, this is obvious, but this one is microscopic on the lining under the knee, it is on a bone which has extremely low blood flow and therefor this tumor grows extremely slowly, since it needs blood to live. It won't even double in size from it's current microscopic state until the end of his life. I have found all of this information online and have read about it just now during our conversation. It seems to me I know more about this than you do.

Last reply. You find a tumor, you get rid of it immediately before it has a chance to grow. You are a retard literally admitting to not knowing what the fuck youre talking about so you have to look it up.

>The offensive floor is too high, his defence would have to be legitimately terrible for a non-starter outcome

Have ever heard of Jamal Crawford? Monta Ellis? Lou Williams? Doesnt matter how much you can score if you dont play any defense

People have gone their entire lives with this undetected in their knee and been fine. The cause of this entire argument was the timing of the surgery: I agree they should have removed it, but they could have easily waited until the end of the season, played JJJ with Lauri and Nurkic and George and pushed for a play in spot, but they didn't, because they are purposely losing, and this is a major problem with the credibility of the league right now. You're huffing and puffing and being all upset made you lose sight of why we were even talking about this. Maybe one day you'll grow up.

They’re all fairly small or light guards though, it’s very rare for a 6’9 power forward to be that sort of player. Even guys like Mo Wagner, Portis, and Olynyk aren’t that level of bad defensively, and would be consistent starters if they were better offensive players. Markkanen for instance wouldn’t get traded for a Trae Young package, because even though he’s a bad defender, the baseline is higher simply due to size and responsibilities as a 4. The most destructively bad defenders in the league are pretty much all small guards and a few centres, but Boozer won’t play the 5 so his weak rim protection shouldn’t be an issue. Carlos Boozer was an exception for how bad he truly was defensively. Also worth noting that Dybantsa’s defence is worse, he’s the easiest bet for a ‘star without star impact’ in this draft class

How bout Banchero? or Carlos Boozer?

>Spurs ascendant
>Mavs have Flagg and are cruising for another lotto pick

In Texas, it's almost an ironclad law that only two of the three NBA teams can be good at once. Since it looks like the Spurs and the Mavs may be good for the foreseeable future, I guess that means the Rockets are going in the cuckshed in the next five years.

People arguing freshmans being a bad defenders like it matters when you can't name 10 good defenders playing in the nba right now.
>>
>>153649670
Yeah Rockets are cooked, they traded their one intruiging young piece for DurCANT.
>>
>>153649660
Like I said, Carlos Boozer was a pretty rare exception. Even then, I think Paolo is bad defensively for a 4, but not compared to the average small guard. If Paolo were the offensive player that Cam is, people would be on his back much less, it’s much easier to ignore his defence than him constantly bricking middies

Defense isn't learned. It's all mentality and drive. If someone sucks at defense while being Uber athletic at everything else they have no drive to excel at defense and you really can't fix that.

Only starter who played well. Even Holland outplayed the others

Whats the Lakers plan for the playoffs? The whole roster construction seems highly unprofessional. At least the other top 6 teams but some effort into building their team. Rockets and Nuggets only have disappointing records because of injuries. Lakers just suck even with AR

>>153649814
They aren’t true contenders and will be just as bad as last season

Honestly it might be because he is superhuman but I saw Giannis jump and land directly like that and niggas thought he was fucking FRIED. Nigga came back and ended up winning the championship that year I'm pretty sure. This is less worse than his shit because Giannis was coming down after jumping, full weight on his shit, this dude was just running...still some weird freak shit though.

They can't do shit because they still have Lebron. We've discussed this a million times. As long as you have Lebron you're """competing""". The truth is that team isn't winning jack shit but you can't tank or rebuild with Lebron on your roster, so you just try and slap bandages on gaping holes and pray you can at least MAKE the play-ins or playoffs. Once Lebron leaves they'll be able to fully rebuild around Luka like we did in Dallas.
