When was the last time the worst team in the league beat the two best teams in consecutive games?

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Well I guess I shouldn't say worst team.

Clippers murdered dem Sixers. And then the Knicks got caught ip with KD :/. And Mavericks have won five straight .

Last two games:
Kyrie - 51 points,18 assists
Dion - 42 points, 7 assists
 
And all it took was them to see a guy who got fired because he took them.

18 pts on 21 shots for Waiters...that efficiency
 

 
 

 

[elcheato]

Kyrie and Waiters are actually playing off each other, which is the point. He's improved his jumper to the status of average to above average, if he is able to clean up his act around the rim, he'll be a lethal scorer. Not many have his first step.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Honestly, what does playing off each other really mean?

I also went back and watched all 12 of their assists, and let me just say what is an assist and what isn't an assist is such a grey area in the NBA. One of Irvings assist had him dribbling toward Waiters on the right break, he handed it off to him like a QB would hand off to a RB, Waiters takes two dribbles towards the middle of the floor then goes around a screen set by Varejao, then takes another two or three dribbles and hits a floater around the ft line area. When I think of an assist, that's not what I think of.

That isn't me shitting on them btw, just an observation I've noticed with all NBA teams, including the Pelicans.

 

[elcheato]

Playing off each other would constitute Waiters not holding his hands out at the half court logo

 

[jonathanlambert33]

As in like why didn't I get the ball?

 

[elcheato]

Jack actually held his hands out prolonged and sarcastically once when he didn't get the ball. It was pretty funny

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Sounds like playing with each other rather than playing off each other lol
