    Monty Williams Fired (Hired by Detroit)

    I suspect you're right. The post I was responding to seemed to indicate that Phoenix has a higher crime rate. Phoenix does not.

    The Ayton Plan

    I agree that I do not think basketball is a passion for him.

    The Ayton Plan

    I think the game is still too fast for him. I think he's thinking about what he needs to do, rather than instinctively doing it. I think this is why he gets in his head and becomes dejected/disengaged/timid on the court. He's frustrated/frozen when his processing falls behind the action.

    The Ayton Plan

    Ayton had an elite physical profile coming out of college. He has an athleticism advantage against just about every opponent he takes the court against. For a 7 footer with a 43.5" vertical, you would think he might be tempted to show it off a bit.

    If he really wanted this, you'd see him working on ball handling pre-game rather than throwing up half court grannies.

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Saturday game thread 4-29-2023- Game 1

    Ayton provides substantially less positive value to winning than Booker. A bad play from Ayton nullifies a much larger proportion of his positive value. This principle determines how much "leash" someone gets in many facets of life.

    How would not re-signing Cam J help with rebounding, toughness, and gaining another pg?

    Playoffs: Suns @ Clippers Saturday game thread 4-22-2023 - Game 4

    I agree that it's pretty reflective at the top. However, after the top 20 or so it gets progressively more funky imo, especially when it comes to bigs. The problem with Hollinger's method is instead of modeling a metric to determine player impact, he took the most impactful players to model...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Clippers Saturday game thread 4-22-2023 - Game 4

    PER is notoriously generous to big men, which is why it has Clint Capela having a higher player efficiency rating than Devin Booker this season. Here is an article ranking the best all-in-one metrics to judge players by according to a survey of NBA executives. The top 3 were DPM, EPM, and...

    The "what went wrong" thread. Darksiders come on in.

    We suffered a historic playoffs collapse last year as the 1 seed. Mavs suffered a historic playoffs collapse in 2007 when they lost to an 8 seed as the 1 seed. Mavs won the championship in 2011 as the 3 seed.

    The next step in Mikal's development will be demanding the ball in the fourth and punishing a double team. If he can do that, he'll be one of the truly elite players in this league.

    Nets coach pulled the starters with 4:27 left in the 4th, down by 16. Seemed kind of early to wave the white flag.

    Fun watching the twins battle the Sixers. Halftime, Mikal with 23 points on 10-16 shooting. Cam with 10 points on 4-5 shooting.
