Official Game Thread: 76ers at Hawks -- IST Game #2
bleachkit replied to lethalweapon3's topic in Homecourt
I'm calling BS on that. No one is giving #10 for Clint. That's complete whale dung. -
League-Adjusted Shooting: Field Goals Added (or subtracted)
bleachkit replied to benhillboy's topic in Homecourt
You're toast my friend. -
Coaches are so reluctant to deviate from their rotations. It must be due to locker room politics more so than strategy.

Unfortunately you can't sell a low information public on analytical data. All they see is PPG and APG.

We aren't suggesting he be traded. Just take fewer shots and better shots.- 394 replies

Official Game Thread: Hawks at Thunder (8 PM EST Tip!)
bleachkit replied to lethalweapon3's topic in Homecourt
Trae's slump could be a blessing in disguise. Perhaps it will lead to him taking less shots and finally embracing a more egalitarian offense. We are already seeing signs of that.- 394 replies

Official Game Thread: Hawks at Thunder (8 PM EST Tip!)
bleachkit replied to lethalweapon3's topic in Homecourt
Come on man, that was a different era. Poor shooting was more accepted back then. That would not fly today. Just like in baseball, teams still bought into outdated conventional wisdom and didn't have an analytical understanding of the game. Trae does impact the game with his passing, and that's where his focus needs to be. His FGA needs to come down.- 394 replies

Is it too much to ask of our superstar not to dig himself an insurmountable statistical hole? Those 4-16 nights are brutal.- 394 replies

Official Game Thread: Hawks at Thunder (8 PM EST Tip!)
bleachkit replied to lethalweapon3's topic in Homecourt
We gave him the ultimate green light, the "superstar" status. And now there is no easy way to reel him back in. Quin is probably going to try to do it gradually. But if not, some difficult conversations will have to be had.- 394 replies

It's always a system or a coach that's supposedly holding him back. Maybe he's just not a good shooter.- 394 replies

Plenty of people do. There is a sizeable portion of the fan base who thinks Trae going nuclear should be our strategy.- 411 replies

In-Season Tournament on the Horizon...It's now here!
bleachkit replied to JayBirdHawk's topic in Homecourt
It's basically just a rebranding of the regular reason. -
That's why threads are shorter after a win. There's nothing to argue about.

A player to watch - going to Duke: Cooper Flagg
bleachkit replied to thecampster's topic in Homecourt
Eh marketability is overrated. The thing that makes you marketable is being good at basketball. I'm pretty sure MJ marketable mainly because he was really good. They said Luka wouldn't be marketable, too European. Turns out they were wrong. Remember all the hype about Lonzo is Lakeland? Yea he was unceremoniously traded before his rookie contract was over. If Flagg is a star it will be because he's really good. It's he just average the hype train will quickly fizzle out. -
That would be very impressive!
