2019 Trade Deadline Discussion

[Kyoto]

Was this DL?

LOL... Drama in the NBA... Das a spicy meat-a-ball

Tell them they're getting "Don." They agree to the trade thinking "Don-ovan" and Lindsey says, no, it's "Dan-te."

Was thinking we should sign a guy with the last name Mitchell and another Gobert... see if DL can troll someone.

How are there front offices this inept? Reminds me of the kings trying to sneak that center into the three way trade with the jazz and cavs. Lmao

NBA Execs and coaches are geniuses. Just ask @LogGrad98 and all the other DontQuestionNBAexecs guys here, they will tell you.

Phoenix and Washington seeking a third team to deal. If only Phoenix wanted Exum and we could get Oubre. Why doesn’t Phoenix want Oubre?

If we swapped Exum for Oubre, we would have the most handsome professional sports team ever assembled. Not that I noticed or anything. . .

Regarding Parker, I guess it depends on what you think his real 3 pt % eventually is. Right now he is worse than Jae, so you could just imagine the wrath he would take around here bricking shots and playing zero defense.
He is rated as the WORST PF IN THE LEAGUE currently by RPM.

What a stupid ****ing stat. Its semi accurate for like the top10 players on good teams. Then strays off with a bunch of anomalies that cant be explained while trying to stay consistent in your belief that its definitive proof of how good of a basketball player you are.

But yet, you will still throw it out there as if it actually means something.

Lets name a few people listed with a higher RPM than Gobert

Paskal Sakiam ( who has a higher RPM than Kawhi)
Robert Covington(Who also has a higher RMP than Kawhi)
Danilio Gallinari(Who also has a higher RPM than Kawhi
Eric Bledsoe(yep, higher than Kawhi.)
Joe Ingles
Nikola Vucevic
And a few others.

So yep, all those players rated higher than Gobert and Kawhi.

Why stop there

Nemanja Bjelica
Boban Marjanovic
Jusuf Nurkic

All 3 higher than Kawhi.

Lets point out some more stupid ****.

Noah Vonleh, Dwight Powell, Kelly Olynyk higher than Victor Oladipo. All 3 in the top 40 of the NBA.

Bradley Beal and John Wall way doen the list at 110 and 111, with a bunch of trash in front of them.

Clint Capela at 284.

Klay Thompson at 316. Yep, that dude is trash. Wouldnt touch him with a 10 foot pole.

Ya, lets point that out one more time.

Klay Thompson has one of the worst RPM's in the league. Let that sink in.

Now someone again please try to explain why the **** anyone should take this stat seriously.

Parker only plays one side of the ball... Defense wins championships. The Warriors is arguably the highest scoring team in nba history (the past few years), but they win because they play defense.

Explain to me why Klay Thompson, who is regarded as a good defender has a horrible RPM on the best team in the league.

He is on the Warriors and as we all know, the Warriors are criticized for being too relaxed during the regular season. I don't know why his RPM is low, but it doesn't mean he isn't a good defender. The Warriors are a unique team in NBA history where they have 3 (if you don't count Green or Cousins) all-stars on their team. Honestly, they don't NEED to play defense to win games during the regular season. They just whomp on 80% of teams and only kinda step-up on the other 20%. During the playoffs is when they play better (past the first round).
