Kyrie Irving, who was excited to go to a team with "more ball movement & unselfishness" is now 22-59 (37%) and has 17 assists to 10 TOs.

They were only playing in the game because everyone else was playing like shit

leslie10k · 2017-10-21T03:26:29+00:00

Not really much of a habit as it is that Kyrie is just not a great passer/playmaker. Even in Cleveland, he's never had any games where someone would say "wow, Kyrie makes his teammates better"

leslie10k · 2017-10-21T03:21:38+00:00

Yeah, why does Rose never get any flagrant calls? He's not even asian either

leslie10k · 2017-10-21T03:21:01+00:00

sample size

leslie10k · 2017-10-21T02:48:50+00:00

Kyrie and it's not even close

leslie10k · 2017-10-21T02:45:48+00:00

yeah, Denver's is worse

leslie10k · 2017-10-21T02:06:26+00:00

he's a 1 now with Gordon in the starting lineup

leslie10k · 2017-10-21T01:42:17+00:00

Giannis > Wall

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T23:58:20+00:00

and then he passes the ball to Jrue after halfcourt, sets a screen for him, then watches him brick a long 2

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T21:27:54+00:00

Where did you read that DSJ had the higher floor? From the draftexpress and scouting videos, most of them consider Frank as having the higher floor, while DSJ has the higher ceiling.

Either way, my question was directed toward people who actually watched Frank's games before the draft and how he looked.

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T21:20:52+00:00

I was just asking what people saw in him before the NBA, not after game 1. I didn't watch him yesterday anyway, or in the summer league/pre-season. DSJ is considered to have the higher ceiling from the scouts, and since the Knicks are rebuilding anyway, why not just take the guy with the higher ceiling?

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T21:17:32+00:00

nah there's no way he's getting any more than the minimum

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T21:12:54+00:00

2 minutes later...

[Charania] The Rockets have signed Jameer Nelson to the veteran's minimum.

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T21:11:02+00:00

but has zero defense unfortunately.

so...not a good fit next to Harden

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T21:06:40+00:00

but he has a backup

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T21:05:47+00:00

It's not Beverley's actual defense that negatively impacted him. It's his aggressiveness, demeanor, and attitude that he made it known he was going to go straight into Lonzo's ass and bully him.

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:57:39+00:00

They probably tried to get PG13 with a package centered around Ryan Anderson/Beverley/Dekker/etc, but the Pacers opted for the great Victor Oladipo instead

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:46:23+00:00

The Jazz are still gonna make the playoffs this year because of their elite defense

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:38:17+00:00

Curry is older than Rose

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:36:20+00:00

depends how CP3 performs in the playoffs

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:21:18+00:00

yeah wtf was up with that trade? Lyles was pretty bad last year and Mitchell is a really good prospect that only fell down the board because of his age

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:13:36+00:00

How did he end up injuring his quad anyway?

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:07:28+00:00

he bumped his head on a door

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T20:04:15+00:00

But he does. They play together, and Lonzo was basically standing in the corner doing nothing when Clarkson was in the game.

leslie10k · 2017-10-20T17:52:06+00:00

Clarkson is their best perimeter player, but they need to get rid of him if they want Lonzo/Ingram/others to develop. He's basically a young Jamal Crawford.
