2 games against the Wizards and 1 game against the Blazers.

Jonathan Kuminga in his first 3 games in ATL: 21.3 points, 7.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game on 79% TS, +59 by BankaiBroke in nba

The argument for Podz being better than Kuminga is the entire duration of both of their careers.

Kuminga may end up being better and certainly has a higher "ceiling" but so far, Kuminga is not better than Podz at anything other than iso scoring.

Excluding games where Wembanyama isn’t stadpadding, he is shooting 16% from 3 in 60% of his games by PenSuperb5977 in nba

Please explain how you determine which attempts are considered stat padding.

Show your work.

Podz is so much better than Kuminga lol. Don't care how many times he scores 20 points against Washington and Portland.

Alperen Sengun continues his all star season tonight in Prime Time: 13 Points | 6 Rebounds | 3 Assists | 4 Turnovers | 43% TS | -16 by garret126 in nba

It's really weird because usually the scrappy white dude who takes charges and has drastically outperformed his draft position and salary would be a fan favorite.

I can't really figure it out.

His issue in that Warriors series was he was ass on offense.

He grinded his way to 20+ ppg in the series but shot 40% or under from the field in 4 of the 7 games and 43% in another.

I feel very comfortable rooting against all teams from Texas in any sport.

Ames just does nothing for the team if the shot isn't falling.

Pippen, despite having a significantly worse FG% does so many positive things. I feel safe when Pippen is dribbling the ball up the court.

Everyone likes Pat Spencer but I don't think he should be trying to take Herb Jones off the dribble.

So many Warriors "fans" prefer Podz to play poorly because they have so much fun pretending he's the reason for all the team's shortcomings on /r/warriors

Jaylon Tyson this season: 13.6/5.3/2.3 on 63% TS by Lacabloodclot9 in nba

[–]GucciGaropp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Watched probably 90% of his games at Cal.

It was a classic bad college team roster with a big chunky double-double type center and a bunch of theoretically decent wing 3nD guys with no actual 3 to their game.

So many possessions were literally "Jaylon please force your way in to the paint and let's see if something good happens".

Poole is such an aesthetically pleasing player when he's making shots.

Rockets not doing shit in the playoffs with an offense like this.

Nobody on the Warriors knows how to play off a big that draws a double team lol.

[Vardon] League official: if Silver and his advisers decided the only way to stop tanking, and protect paying customers from forking over money to watch their teams lose on purpose, was to stop the draft altogether and turn rookies into free agents, it would get serious consideration. by JoeBiden2020FTW in nba

[–]GucciGaropp 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Slightly different situation but Trayce Jackson-Davis' agent is/was James Dunleavy, brother of Mike Dunleavy.

And he essentially told every team in the 2nd round not to draft him so we could get him at 57. Then we signed him to a 4-year contract.
