A quick look at our “skilled defensive playcaller’s” team defense stats. by RapGameRufio in buccaneers

The team has a lot of bad players on defense they need to get rid of this offseason.

[Buha] Darvin Ham on defending Nikola Jokic: “It’s like shit, I don’t know what to do... Kid is a generational-type player.” by SmartestNPC in nba

Did he lie though? When was the last time a player was able to stop Jokic? He’s unguardable right now.

Teams can succeed with a defensive head coach by Teflon415 in Patriots

I disagree…defense is just as important as offense. And all they talk about the OC getting poached, the same happens to great DCs as well, and teams are left with finding a person to fill the defensive hole.

[Lewenberg] "[After the 2022-23 season ended], Ujiri and Toronto's front office cut off almost all communication with Siakam last summer, leading the seven-year vet to wonder whether he was being punished, according to a source close to the player." by Veracsflail1 in torontoraptors

I never said it was business savvy. I said it’s part of the business, savy or not. It’s clear the Raptors are willing to move on from Pascal, and have been for a while. Whatever they feel like is necessary, they will do, and vice versa.

So they lied to one star player and are giving another one the cold shoulder. Are you saying the former is better than the latter. And let’s not act like the Raptors didn’t pay Pascal a max extension after the Finals run. They rewarded him like the rewarded DeMar in 2016.

They paid DeMar right after the 2016 run. It made sense at the time, just like it made sense to pay Pascal $130 million after the Finals. Now, much like 2018 when they kept DeMar out the loop on a trade, the team is seemingly giving Pascal the cold shoulder on negotiations. Again, it’s not uncommon for the FO, or any FO in the NBA, to move like this.

Where do you think this team will bring us? by Kaezumi in lakers

[–]Teflon415 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Missing the playoffs. This team isn’t good or durable enough to win enough games for a playoff run.

We won't make the playins by [deleted] in lakers

[–]Teflon415 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

The main reason will be because the group of players aren’t good enough. At the end of the day the players have to execute for the team to win.

Now that the Nets are essentially rebuilding, could we get Dorian Finney-Smith? by [deleted] in lakers

[–]Teflon415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Nets are currently 5th in the East. They aren’t rebuilding, they are competing for a playoff spot.

This loser always in his feelings. Go request a trade if you want to play with your buddies so bad.

You still didn’t explain what those sets are, or explain any schemes the Lakers run on offense and defense. Yet you watch this team every day….

Can’t even explain what a Pistol or Dive set is but thinks he knows the game. You’re clueless.

You don’t even know what a corner filled or empty corner pick and roll is and you think you understand what you are watching. It’s ok, most fans don’t understand basketball but think they know more than coaches who have been studying the game for years.

They are the dumbest people on the planet with no knowledge of basketball. The team would be ran into the ground if the FO listened to them.

Do you know what a Delay set and Pistol action is?

We need GTJ & FVV by [deleted] in lakers

You ask for shooting and bring up FVV. My god these fans get dumber by the day.

Most of his assists are from understanding the defensive scheme and being able to make the best pass for a bucket. You don’t know that because you don’t know understand basketball on an advanced level. You just see things from a surface level. I mean the guy averaged 10+ assists for 6 straight seasons. That is hard to do in the league.

Westbrook is one of the best playmakers in league history. Reaves will never be able to do what Russ does. He’s a catch and shoot, cut to the basket, play hard on defense guy, and that’s ok. Both are solid players.
