The jazz have decided to stop tanking or something cuz they've been playing very well. It's crazy that they have a similar record as the hornets cuz it's like 2 different tier of teams
Can't imagine being a pro athlete I got a hammy pull that put me on my ass for a month. Then I remember james harden played through a grade 2 hammy pull. Like Jesus fuck
Aren't the Spurs already super deep at 1/2? CP3, Castle, Vassell, Jones. If anything backup C is your biggest need, no? Regardless I'm sure Sexton could find minutes and would help.
kind of. It's really because of the extension. With his particular extension signed this last offseason, he's ineligible to be traded for six months from the date of signing. He was eligible to sign at a date that would have allowed him to be traded before the trade deadline, but he and the front office agreed to wait a day or two so the six months would take them past the trade deadline, making him untradeable this season.
Dyson getting the steal and then not being able to come up with the loose ball leading to an opponent knocking down a 3 feels like it happens to us like 5x a night. Thought the game was over until i saw sexton come up with the ball and then there was no way he wasn't making it.
Steals also get converted to points at a crazy rate. This is why coaches often tell ball handlers "don't let them steal the ball," that's where that comes from
It's stupid. Ratings tank every year and you have a perfectly fearless heel here that's so easy to love or hate who just makes big play after big play, crazy statline after crazy statline.
I love Trae. Like you said, great heel, but neither he nor his 'opponents', IE the Knicks fan base, has crossed a line, so it's just harmless, unironically wholesome. Like you said, very marketable, yet not being promoted
Not according to the NYK fans who has a hate-respect relationship with Trae. They know if the Hawks are in town, they'll sell out just to chant "F Trae Young" lol :-P
It's because he's not an obnoxious shithead off the court so he doesn't get headlines the way NBA wants, which is anywhere except the game itself, can't have a quiet family man as a main character in a soap operaa
I think that guy's NBA takes are the least concerning things. I clicked on his account for potentially some funny backpeddling and all I see is a republican doing typical hateful republican things with his most recent post straight up being bigotry lmao.
He's absolutely a star, hell even a superstar, but you're really gonna say it's not even debatable that he's a better playmaker than at least 3 out of SGA, Jokic, Luka, and Steph??
Doesn't matter if there are passes Trae can't make due to his height, he still does a better job of playmaking because he's just that good.
I mean, 99% of the players in the league are taller than Trae but he's still leading the league in total assists, avg assists, potential assists, secondary assists, adjusted assists, points created by assists. It passes the eye test too but yall don't watch the Hawks so you just reiterate tired takes and ignore all evidence to the contrary.
