Cherry picking stats to try to prove a narrative just to show you that you don’t watch the game

Long read, but I enjoyed this.

Things haven’t changed. Danny always almost gets the good ones.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

He was 22. Young players generally don't win in the NBA.

Would you still wanna exclude it if he actually had a good finals?

We all know it’s alway Danny Ainge Almost Made A Trade O’Clock before the deadline and on draft night. Consistency

 

[yobyellav]

Appreciate the quick lesson on analytics reformeDWS & lawdog1 . Didn’t know they gave insight into defensive strategies and **** like that.

your screen name mean anything, rdws?

Can’t agree with you there. Jim is a scorer. He also happens to have great court vision and superior passing ability.

But he’s a much more natural scorer than LeBron. Better shooter, wider variety of shots and moves, etc.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

This is the year yall will finally put respect on Ainge's name

 

[rolaholic]

Wiseman’s floor being Bam is wild lol

His ceiling being Bam would be a huge success for them in the first place

That elite combination of size and skill is what everyone's going for now

If Jim ain’t a scorer he did an all time great impression in Houston.

 

[wavycrocket]

right. these "new-age" stats seem goofy at first, but they just tell small parts of the story. my biggest issue with the analytics movement is what some have referenced as the "gentrification of basketball", but that's a separate conversation to have.

That’s the part that annoys me. Danny on Duncd on started watching basketball in like 2013. He’s 30+. But speaks like he has the authority/history on the game at times. Never hooped etc. Can be dismissive of previous eras, and have hard ons for the next European superstar .

What started out as a social media hobby for these cats turned some of them into capatilst authority figures, and 9/10....its white dudes who give other white dudes like them a platform from the same socio-economic background and privilege.

Bloomberg - Are you a robot?

These guys get most of what analytics/good basketball is correct. I admire the leap they took in this career path. But I do be thrown off by the tone sometimes tho. And can see how that’s off putting to other more traditional basketball people. Some of that, is people being close minded, and not wanting to learn etc. so it’s a mix.
