Herro Rumors

My memory might be faulty, but don't teams straight up target Bane on defense? I don't think of him as a plus defender at all. He's got the T-rex arms which is why he fell in the draft.
Memphis has been a better defensive team with him on the court for the last two seasons. No idea how much noise is in that (like playing with JJJ more minutes than not) but I think he is generally regarded as a JJ Redick esque defender, but with some better physical traits. Going to play good team defense and generally be in the right spots and has enough strength/movement ability to not be a liability.
Since 9th of February both played around same amount of minutes and possessions. Dunn had 33% less FGA than THT at that period with 10% less minutes played. So you are saying the difference in "very limited attempts" and "making legitimate plays" (your words) is 33%.... or less than 5 shots per game.

Also btw, you are essentiallly rewarding THT for missed shots here since the FGM was 5.3 (Dunn) vs 6.3 (THT), so only marginally different.
I'm pretty sure you're the person I argued with this about a month ago and you claimed advanced stats favored Dunn until I proved you wrong, but idk, maybe I'm misremembering which delusional THT hater I was arguing with.

And also, as I pointed out to you when you tried to make these dumbass arguments, Dunn played in the final 3 games of the season and THT did not. Those would have probably been 40-10-10 games for THT with how easy they were.
 
And I know THT is likely gone if we get Herro, which will suck, but ultimately I sign off on.

Hope we are able to keep him so he can form a dynamic backcourt with him/Herro, but you got to give up good stuff to get good stuff.

Dunn beats him clearly in EFG%, TS%, AST/TO, TO ratio, Ast Ratio, PIE, PER etc... AST% and REB% are pretty much drawn. I dont know how the other advanced individual stats work since I dont know how to filter them by specific time period (maybe need subs to those sites), but I would bet Dunn wins them as well since he is just a better player.

Only team based advanced stats (like nba.com's ORtg and DRtg) are in favor of THT, which is explained by the fact that he played with better players.

Top 5 player lineup in minutes for THT
147 minutes with K. Olynyk - L. Markkanen - T. Horton-Tucker - O. Agbaji - W. Kessler

Top 5 player lineup in minutes for Dunn
31 minutes with K. Olynyk - K. Dunn - U. Azubuike - L. Samanic - O. Agbaji

I cant remember arguing with you about this but if you ever beat me in an argument I must have been in a burning fever or some other seriously handicapped state of mind so that excuses me from remembering such event.
 
I will say this:

  • Boston has access to all their picks and a top 4 GSW protected pick
  • Robert Williams is a great fit with their current team as a young upcoming center who is on a great contract for the next 3 seasons
  • Jordan Walsh is interesting as a prospect after having a much better than anticipated SL.
Outside of that, how do you find a place for Brogdon? Would the Celtics include Horford to a 3rd team?

Again there is no reason to rehash this as I already proved you wrong about a month ago on this. You arent a serious person bringing up PER.

Again that last sentence proves exactly who you are. Diverting attention away from your own flaws by harping on 1 small detail in a post.

Only place where you have ever proven me wrong is in your head., where you win all your arguments 100% of the time.

If any other JFC poster thinks that Cy has proven me wrong at any point in time please say so. I will eat my crow if there was an instance where that actually has happened.
 
And also, as I pointed out to you when you tried to make these dumbass arguments, Dunn played in the final 3 games of the season and THT did not. Those would have probably been 40-10-10 games for THT with how easy they were.
Lmao I didnt make any arguments in that post. I only pointed to some concrete stats related to your arguments. So if there were dumbass arguments in that post they were your own. I even quoted them to highlight they are your words, not mine.

Also throwing out THT 40-10-10 statlines seems really "objective" for a guy who just few weeks ago self-proclaimed himself as the most objective poster in the forum.

Good job not embarassing yourself... mr Objectivity.
 

Boston is somehow the betting favorite? (I guess this is also the Damian Lillard trade thread)
That article and headline are both terribly written tbh, it literally says
Per BetOnline, excluding the Miami Heat, the Boston Celtics are frontrunners
So if you exclude the actual front runners, then they’re the front runners? Incredibly misleading by that website

Brother because I'm not going to rehash this dumbass argument with you. Go back and refresh yourself.
