He’s been able to finish at the rim all season. So far this year he’s shooting .679 at the rim and has never been above .600 in any season in his career. He’s also now shooting in line with his career averages from 3-10 (a poor .333). The issue this year is much more that he hasn’t been getting...

Kicked in the calf.

This was a very easy call live.

No. Most double teams aren’t against one of the best passers in the game.

In a 2 point game that is the right play. If you miss, a foul and 1/2 gives you another chance to tie. Either that or run an ISO for a 3 to win, which I know is this Board’s favorite play.

Because then someone gets an open shot instead of Luka needing to make difficult contested step backs.

Celtics played great defense the last 4 minutes, which is encouraging. There is no defense that stops those last 2 shots. Those are the tough looks you want to force, but they went in.

I would like to see Timelord get a lot of run defending Zion.

I had made a formatting change and forgot to delete his entry. The 31 mpg is accurate and I edited my post to remove the extraneous Thompson entry.

Also, not saying I find this terribly meaningful given sample size, but RAPTOR now rates Kemba as having the second best season on the team behind only Tatum (WAR, not wins). Unsurprisingly, no one on the team is playing at the level we need 1 or 2 guys to get to (5+ WAR) if we want to be a true...

I’m in general agreement here, but also find this post confusing because it seems to conflate minutes actually played so far and minutes a healthy team would play. Of course, part of our problem this year is that teams frequently are not fully healthy and we have no wing depth so missed games at...

I guess my question is whether I should do this or get a cheaper mesh option like the eero that would give me Ethernet ports in offices and guaranteed coverage without deadzones. I’m not looking to spend $500 on an overkill system but am happy to spend a little more to future proof or add useful...

He also has a really positive impact on other possessions by the eye test though. I guess the big question is, are the metrics wrong? It’s certainly plausible they are given the small sample size and the easy to spot breakdowns he is responsible for. Or are we putting too much emphasis on those...

Are there recommendations here for best approach to extending/reinforcing my wifi network? The current scope of options has passed by my general understanding of routers and I am hoping SoSH expertise can help point me in the right direction. We have a 2-level, 2,000 square foot condo with a...

Kemba is not the problem. He hasn’t been himself yet, but he still has graded out as a net positive on RAPTOR or a modest negative by RPM. BPM also has him right around average so far. Statistically, setting aside 2P%, he’s also been fine. His rebounding, passing, steals, 3P%, turnovers, etc...
