The one thing I can’t figure out is everyone is blaming Donovan for his bad defense when I look at all of these defensive stats and he’s either better or around the same numbers as Gobert in the Dallas series.
Predict the Rudy Gobert trade

- Start date
Lmao dude follow along. Dallas ran isolation plays on offense 20-25% of the time and the only players on the team who allowed more than 0.96 PPP was Gobert and Conley.
So either Donovan and Gobert were bad on defense or they both weren’t bad. Which one is it clowns?
Elizah Huge is learning that when you're dealing with tiny sample sizes, you get a lot of crazy results.
Like one of the most basic principles of statistics is that a small sample size isn't representative of anything.

This coming from you? You often come up with small sample size stats to prove some lame argument.
Our defense run by Quin prioritizing Rudy did not work in the playoffs. We can blame everything in the world for why that was, but it's the truth.
Don't you understand HOW SMALL THIS SAMPLE IS? This is ridiculous to make any sort of determinations about how good or bad Gobert is in isolation based on a dozen possessions, no matter how bad or good they are. Especially when we have THOUSANDS of possessions prior and we know exactly how good he is in isolation.
BTW you do realize that part of the reason others allow low % in isolation when Gobert is on the floor is precisely because Gobert is on the floor and he helps on a TON of drives off isolation?
An entire playoff series is not a small sample size to me. It literally is the ****ing playoffs where it matters most.
I explained White Chocolates argument style and he goes right to it lmfao
Oh really? Give me one example. Should be easy since I "often" do it.
Head in sand and misuse of stats. The White Chocolate/Lopo special
