Lyles' Rise = Gobert and Favors' injuries a blessing in disguise?

Where do you get these numbers?

They're from his ***.

You joining the morons? Another one bites the dust.

No, totally disagree with that. I agree that players develop in practice a lot, but nothing is like playing a real nba game, you cant simulate that in practice.

Michael Phelps won all those golds because he had the most Olympic experience.

There is no premise for this dumb *** logic whatsoever. In any sport.

I was implicitly asking you that very question. That 99:1 ratio is a bit extreme, no? I'd say in-game confidence is definitely a function of playing time. Anecdotal for sure, but I don't think we'd see the same confidence and role/overall play expansion from Withey and Lyles if not for the injuries to Gobert and Favors. Sure, in the long-run, they'd probably get there anyway -- especially if we're talking about skills -- but it's nice to see it happening sooner, especially with an impending Booker decision this summer (which was probably a no-brainer, regardless).

Players develop 99% in practice and 1% on the court, so the injury/pt is pretty much irrelevant outside building trade value.

63% of all statistics are made up on the spot. 60% of the time it works every time.

99% is conservative. Confidence is really the only thing that can be gained in game. If they don't have the stuff & confidence in practice how are they magically going to develop success in game to boost that confidence?

They say it takes 10,000 hours to master something. Karl Malone had 54,852 career minutes. How many do you think he had practicing? He shot 17.75 field goals per game. How many did he shoot in practice and warmup before each game and at half time? He shot just under 9 FTA per game. How many did he shoot in practice?

I heard Ray Allen shot 500-1000 3 pointers per day, in practice. He took just 7429 his entire career.

The positives for Whithey and Lyles is they aren't wasting hours and potential learning energy siting on the bench. It's not making a huge difference in there immediate development, however.

It was definitely the swim practice that did it ... not all of his experiences in competitive swimming and previous races!

Solo racing competitions and team sports aint even remotely commensurate anyway for so many reasons.

U trollin like always.

1) I heard Ray Allen shot 500-1000 3 pointers per day, in practice. He took just 7429 his entire career.
2) lol @ thinking confidence in practice being something that should seamlessly transfer into confidence in game.

The positives for Whithey and Lyles is they aren't wasting hours and potential learning energy siting on the bench. It's not making a huge difference in there immediate development, however.

10000 hour theory has been debunked, let us know when you join the 21st century

Because you are not an athlete.

"They say" is different than "theory". Kiddo, let us know when you grow out of reading what you want to see instead of what was written.

FWIW, Chris Johnson's game has also slowly elevated as he's gotten more burn. Yes, it's from confidence-- something he would find difficulty attaining unless he had the opportunity to play extended minutes.

Frank gon Frank tho

there's a difference between quantitative and qualitative transformations. And there's no replacing the qualitative transformations that come along with prepping for and playing in meaningful games.
