The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

[pmatic]

Missed the same corner 3 the exact same way 4 straight times

Makes you wonder why more teams don’t just aggressively trap Luka all game. Limit his shots & they can’t consistently score.

The lakers better win tonight WASHED KING

Since they changed the team & brought Russ in, any no-AD lineup has been getting killed defensively. We’ll see what happens tonight. Not a good start

 

[D StaXX]

I don't know about the Rockets.

Full on pick up game going on

Much more useful stat than actual assists. Hali is at 21.1. Harden is in 2nd at 18.

Hali really might be the best distributor in the league. Doesn’t pound the rock. Just finds the open man.

What is “potential assists” based off of? Some sort of equation of times passed * that players % in that area - but they didn’t shoot? They missed? “Potential assists” seems like a new stat so I am curious about what it means

Why is AD out tonight? He’s been balling

I think it just takes into account the missed shots that could’ve been assists. So it shows how often you’re setting guys up and not only relying on the ones they make. Paints a better picture.

Giddey is going to unlock a team the way Draymond did (but offensively) when he has the proper personnel around him

Why do you say that?

They’ve beat the Spurs twice.

 

[HOU$TON]

Rockets have so much individual talent/potential. Can’t wait till they consistently put it together.
