yeah a ball-bledsoe starting backcourt is just not going to win a ton of games
interesting they would choose bledsoe but i guess his contract is gonna end sooner than lonzo's next one
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 26 January 2021 23:42 (three years ago) link
also remembering that lonzo hired klutch which has a bad relationship w/ the pelicans bcuz of brow so maybe both sides just want to be done w/ it
I still want to believe in lonzo but if you can’t make it work with Ingram and Zion idk
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 00:42 (three years ago) link
hes passive. prob cos he doesnt want to shoot free throws. not good.
― a nice controlled drift (Spottie), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 00:46 (three years ago) link
lonzos a backup and its not just his shooting hes an all around bad scorer doesnt “put pressure on the rim”

RIP Sekou, that sucks

i think lonzo can still be a helpful player on the right team, he can defend both guard spots and is a good passer... pels are one of the slowest paced teams in the league, it’s not a good fit. the problem is the salary he’s going to want

I can’t abide these blue rockets jerseys
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 27 January 2021 01:41 (three years ago) link
you’d think with ingram, zion, and lonzo they’d figure out a way to play a little faster

svg rather
yeah i remember before the season zach lowe talking about how the magic always played slow under SVG and theorizing that he would adjust w/ the pelicans to speed up the pace -- turns out no
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 27 January 2021 01:49 (three years ago) link
bledsoe also one of the fastest players in the league... the combo of steven adams + no shooting + slow pace means they're basically playing like 90s ball, pretty dumb stuff
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 27 January 2021 01:51 (three years ago) link
plus if they ran mb zion wld lose some weight
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 01:57 (three years ago) link
it's just a very oddly constructed team. can't say i like anything about it.
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:08 (three years ago) link
yeah you really want to go fast and play four out with zion instead their third best player is steven adams
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:12 (three years ago) link
they're kinda stuck in a weird place bcuz if you played 4 out w/ zion at center you'd prob have the worst defense in the NBA, but they're still one of the 5-7 worst defensive teams as it is
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:17 (three years ago) link
The team makes some sense on paper but the pieces don’t fit. Gentry seemed like a good fit on paper too.
― a nice controlled drift (Spottie), Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:18 (three years ago) link
zion only has to be their center on offense tho
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:21 (three years ago) link
like many teams they could use a floor-spacing defensive 5
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:30 (three years ago) link
they could especially use one
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:32 (three years ago) link
someone teach steven adams to shoot
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:33 (three years ago) link
they're the team that needs myles turner
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 27 January 2021 02:33 (three years ago) link
turner is perfect for any team playing a big that cant defend or shoot (or in zions case, both)

Sekou Smith was a great beat writer for the Hawks back in the day. RIP

haven’t seen durant forcefully clapping for the ball at the top of the key while a teammate bricks a potential last-second shot since the OKC days, nice

harden
― k3vin k., Thursday, 28 January 2021 03:00 (three years ago) link
the springs durant still has after his achilles injury are crazy. he blocked a jump shot with about a minute left in regulation and just had a dunk that looked like it could have been from 2015. scary

Harden did the clapping thing all the time in year 3 with the dubs btw. Surprised to see he’s already doing it this early in the honeymoon phase in bklyn

nuggets on a nice little heater but I think it’s time to give jokic a breather. they’re locked into a top 4 seed imo, no need to overwork him
― k3vin k., Thursday, 28 January 2021 05:18 (three years ago) link
Suns meanwhile are 8-8 after a 7-3 start
― a nice controlled drift (Spottie), Thursday, 28 January 2021 05:40 (three years ago) link
Yah that top 4 looks locked in

Wiseman doing fun things against a terrible team is encouraging
Draymond Green actively searches for James Wiseman way more than any other teammate. Perfect lookahead find here to complete the Wiseman block/dunk sequence. pic.twitter.com/vKacJY3pG2— Anthony Slater (@anthonyVslater) January 28, 2021
