im hardly saying its a perfect stat at all

we had 2/9 of those who played who finished positive. when hayward was on the court we were +12. hes promoting positive ball movement, which honestly is the number one problem. were not passing enough and running off pure iso, so when tough shots dont fall, we suck. swing the ball and find the open guy, even if that means not shooting the ball often

Who do you blame most for not enough ball movement and too much iso?

That actually makes sense for Harden. Cause yeah he scores a lot of points but he's not good on defense and doesn't prevent points. And neither does the team around him much. I'd imagine its better with Capela back.
+ - is a team stat though. Harden can have bums around him during a stretch, and they all go down -20 points but lets say harden is actually balling and the only one doing good and he’ll still have -20 bc the entire team gave away the lead

+ - got too many flaws to trust it too much or say who has a good or bad game based off it

Harden is a good defender

It wont load for some reason

This what he said

Honestly, I've grown to hate so much and so many people since you've left. I can't seem to shake the feeling of being alone, you don't know how bad you hurt me mommy. I know that's selfish but I don't like it here anymore..... I'll see you soon I promise

1. Brad Stevens, without question. Its CLEARLY not working right now, make some changes

2. Marcus Morris. HE is the cancer on the team. Lazy defense and only wants to work for his shot and not much else

3. Terry Rozier. Contract year and wanted to get paid. Hed almost be better off tearing his ACL in the preseason tbh, because hes worth < $7M year right now Id say.

If youre looking for me to say Kyrie or Tatum, youre wrong. Theyre the two guys that can bail us out when in a funk.

The offense in theory should be easy. Let Marcus run one unit, and Hayward the next. Let Kyrie and Tatum be moving off screens to get into scoring opportunities, with Al and Smart playing pace. Jaylen needs to be the 3&D, but using his athleticism to space the court by literally running around everywhere. And then let Morris and Rozier be 20-40% versions of Tatum and Kyrie.

But its on Brad for not making changes

Doncic? Giannis?

Gordon Hayward was an All star the year before he got maxed by Boston. Theres a legit chance hes never the same player ever again

Yall talk like hes the worst contract in the league. Add 9 more years onto that for these baseball situations. Beyond dumb to not have any opt outs

Why does baseball do that? Can they not just do a 5 year deal? I assume 13 years is considered the supermax but god damn thats not smart at all

Luka is probably the only one I'd even consider.  Maybe Ben Simmons.

From a players perspective, why sign a 5 year deal when you can get a lifetime super contract like this? The NBA is capped to 4-5 year deals, otherwise theyd sign these deals too.

Teams would obviously rather do a 5 year deal and pay the crazy AAV that you see with NBA players but there's always gonna be someone willing to offer the security of more years
