oh yeah i guess im willing to believe the hot hand exists in the sense that like, if a player has their shooting mechanics particularly on form then thats probably repeatable over a stretch, but its not related to clutch game situations

When Giannis was told that no nba team had come back to win from a 3-0 deficit, he was quoted saying, "It could be us. It could definitely be us." And now I'm watching this thinking, "nope, it's not you."

Anunoby did a hurry up motion which probably decreased the chances he’d choke

Gary Harris really did get rid of the hitch in his jumper, it’s an intriguing situation folks

spo not challenging the dante foul and then taking out bam and then jae crowder forcing dragic into a heave with a time out in their back pocket not the heat’s finest moment

Jimmy Buckets had a bad stretch of hero ball in the second quarter. He'd drive, the Bucks would collapse the middle and swarm him, then he'd make a bad pass or wild shot; it seemed like about six consecutive possessions.

That was great, cad! Got 8, which is a lot better than I was expecting. Can someone explain why Tatum shouldn't have gone under the screen there in #1?
― Fetchboy, Monday, 7 September 2020 04:51 (three years ago) link
i'm guessing the plan there was to go over because lowry is a good shooter and you don't want to give him a comfortable three
― call all destroyer, Monday, 7 September 2020 04:53 (three years ago) link
Just seemed like with Ibaka coming so far out he got whatever look over Kanter he would've got otherwise. But maybe that extra step Ibaka took (moving screen?) took him by surprise?

That may have been the worst game Westbrook has ever played they are so much better with like mclemore getting those minutes right now. Classic rockets shoot themselves into a game then shoot themselves out of a game.

I got an 8, better than I expected.
I've been paying attention to basketball my whole life and I have never heard the term "tag and cleanse" - I get the idea of "cleansing" (stepping out of the lane, I guess) to avoid the 3 second call, but tagging? Does simply touching an offensive player reset a defensive player's time in the lane?
I clicked the link with that one but I don't subscribe to the Athletic.
― alpine static, Monday, 7 September 2020 08:47 (three years ago) link
yeah it resets - defensive 3 seconds only applies if youre not closely guarding a player
― micah, Monday, 7 September 2020 09:50 (three years ago) link
that was a fun quiz! I only got 6/10
― k3vin k., Monday, 7 September 2020 11:53 (three years ago) link
I got 1/1. I had to re-run the first clip six or seven times, play it through once in stop-motion, squint to read the jersey numbers because I don't know most of the Celtics. Took two minutes--too much work.
― clemenza, Monday, 7 September 2020 13:29 (three years ago) link
i blamed kanter on the first one cause i figured it was a safe bet
