Actually, DeMarre has an average speed of 4,1 miles per hour and travels 3,3 miles per 48 min Joe has an average speed of 4 miles per hour and travels 3,2 miles per 48 min . You're still the same hater I knew a few years ago...

You should worry about winning more than a playoff round. You know, the Hawks aren't known for their glorious past :).

I've never seen such a hater man. Let it go... Joe was the most talented player the Hawks has seen in the last decade. Nobody wants to play in Atlanta because the fans and the organisation suck so much. JJ was booed last year when he came back for the first time in Philips Arena. I can say tou that, it doesn't do any good tou our organisation. Don't be surprised playeres don't want to play for such a great fanbase... Nets fans do take Joe for what he is : an aging and overpaid close to elite player who can still make your team win some games.

You're fooling yourself if you really think Dwight's willing to play in Atlanta. The organisation hasn't proven anything : 2nd round exits, disrespect for its players, cheap, weak fan base...

Nice try ! But the title doesn't mean anything !

Hope he will prove me wrong this year.

:-) and I live in Paris!

By the way, english is nor my first langage. It's kinda difficult to express my opinions as I would in french...

It started by : "It doesn't really matter"... Petro ranks 336 in the nba in ppp on the offensive end, 361 on defense. Collins : 444 and 75. Your numbers showed several things: 1/ Petro is a better scorer and rebounder than Collins. That's not very difficult though...ans he's still very weak 2/ Petro shot and played more than Jason. Collins has been in this league for a long time. The only reason for that is his defensive efficiency. Petro can't do anything at the highest level.

I don't care about those numbers. When I'm home, I will post MUCH more interesting ones

PG : Teague/Hinrich/Pargo VS Teague/Harris/Williams I would say it's pretty even. Harris and Williams are better offensive players, but can't defend anyone. Do you remember when Iguodala said last year : “Like Lou Williams. He’s one of the toughest guys to guard in the league, but he can’t guard anybody. I don’t get that.” As much as I didn't like Hinrich, we always played good defense. Pargo had a good year and was one of the most efficient player in spot up situations. SG : Joe Johnson/Willie Green/Hinrich/Stackhouse VS Harris/Williams/Jenkins/Morrrow/Stevenson Nothing to debate there... SF : Marvin/Joe/TMac VS Korver/James/Anderson In my opinion, it's not even close. Marvin was hated here, but he was at least a starting caliber small forward, who could defend, rebound and spot up well. Tmac was able to play point forward and had some nice moments. Let's hope Ferry will trade to find a starter, because right now it's weak. PF : same players C : Horford+ Zaza+ Collins VS Horford+Zaza+Petro It doesn't really matter but Collins is much more valuable than Petro.

You'll see...

So, defensive efficiency depends on team defense ?

Yes it is !Would you be able to explain what a defensive win share is, how are calculated the defensive ratings and why Carlos Boozer is up there ?

So...that's the excuse ? Seems pretty weak to me. Find me numbers that say Josh is better than Gasol !
