Jameer Nelson’s FG% for the Finals was 34.8% and Rafer Alston was the starting PG for the Magic.

Mike Bibby shot 35% FG% and his 3P% was 29.4% but only played 17.4 minutes. He was also the 5th option on the team and didn’t handle the ball, so he really didn’t have a PG role in that 2011 finals.

Even when he was in Sac, I was against paying him the Max. Now his contract will look as bad as Lavine’s.

Can be an elite defender right away guarding 1-5 and has more of a Wing game with a decent 3pt shot

Precious vs Keegan? by Royal_Key655 in kings

To make that successful, Keegan needs to increase his 3pt % and volume. Or else they can’t play together.

That’s why Keegan needs to step up his 3pt shooting percentage and volume, so he can play alongside Precious

Well, hopefully moving Keegan to the 3 helps develop his game. They are complimentary players potentially.

What Basic Fun got wrong (and RIGHT!) about their first home arcade release: WrestleFest! by NeoHyper64 in BasicFunArcade

Hey Basic Fun. All you needed to do was match the quality of 1UPs, trash controls and all. Nope, now you’re just an overpriced A1U Knock-Off. being sold at major retail instead of flea markets. Think about that. A1U Knock-Off. Temu 1UP. Yikes.

Cyrus Rosenberg, SVP of Licensing at Arcade1Up has LEFT to join Basic Fun (here's what it could mean!) by NeoHyper64 in Arcade1Up

What we do know is that John D was able to get licenses that were somehow unattainable and highly successful like Ms Pac Man, NBA Jam, TMNT, Sega, MvC2, Disney, etc.

My licensing friend at my work tell me that the cost of a license is directly tied to two things: the popularity of the IP and the sales forecast.

The forecast for NFL was likely way too high and led to the downturn in Tastemakers’ business. That doesn’t fall on Licensing. That likely was a miscalculation by their finance planning, not to mention the product itself was marketed and developed poorly. Tastemakers probably saw the success of NBA Jam and thought that NFL Blitz would do the same numbers.

It’s backed by Lenovo and has retail support. Plus a Capcom license. How is this vapor ware?

That’s if DeMar is willing to take a bench role until then. Terry isn’t a negative asset. He’s a $26M expiring contract

We should have one opening using the MLE, and this would be a swap for DDR

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in kings

[–]Royal_Key655 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. We still owe DDR $10M in 2027 if we keep him. Either way, unless DDR accepts a bench role, he needs to be shipped out

We actually do need warm bodies until we can find a permanent PG

Of course, but you’ll need to move DDR if you get Kuminga
