Also I don't think anyone cares that much about a PG grabbing 4 boards per game, it just seems like a meaningless extra criteria thrown in. Robertson grabbing like 9-12 boards per game with those assists and scoring numbers -- that's pretty impressive. But I'm guessing some ballhead could give a good explanation as to why the offenses he played with or the style of play back then was more conducive to a PG getting rebs?

they played at a much much faster pace back then and shot really poorly there were so many more rebounds
― lag∞n, Friday, 20 December 2013 20:18 (ten years ago) link
counting stats from that era are muy inflatedo across the board
― lag∞n, Friday, 20 December 2013 20:19 (ten years ago) link
They shot like no 3s and hella midrange shots too, woefully inefficient times

"I like to do that because it's harder to catch a little guy," Diaw recalled of the block. When asked if he was a LeBron stopper -- he did well guarding James in the Finals -- or a Curry stopper, Diaw responded with a confident "None. I am not a stopper."

that's true but no other PG back then put up those numbers. it's still pretty impressive.

if you bump the rebounds down to 3.0 the only player added is Michael Adams in that totally nonsense season where the Nuggets ran Westhead-ball.

I think birdman is on his third or fourth life at least

someone whisper to harden that there's two-for-one beers at a local strip club. his mind will wander.

Btw cad I was listening to that celtics pistons game and the radio guy was losing his mind as bass was backing down with no real time left on the clock- and he's not really a bad homer. He spent half of the subsequent timeout praising Stevens for recognizing that bass was in some twilight zone and calling the timeout
This is what I meant when I said it seemed like bass is just logging time waiting for a trade- no real reason for him to be on that team
― z-time champion (agent hibachi), Saturday, 21 December 2013 01:42 (ten years ago) link
Lol this game just turned into a block party
Also hey it's Danny granger!
I've never seen Scola take a shot beyond 12 feet and he just nailed a three

ha that screen cap I couldn't figure out what the big deal was, just thought Lebro was standing by the ref calling for the ball... then it clicked
