Pres. Of Baskettball Operations Says Interesting Things About Draft, Tomic, and Neto...

In looking at Kanter's numbers, I'm pretty surprised at how much worse he was in his third year in compared to his second. Efficiency in every category was way down. Only his turnover percentage and defensive rebounding rate were up. Shoulder shouldn't have affected him THAT much.

FG%, FT%, free throw rate, Offensive rebound %, block %, steal %, win shares/48, True Shooting %, Effective field goal %, PER, all way down. Total rebound rate and Assist rate were in same ball park.
 
I'll actually agree for the most part with this, but at the cost of long term development. Minutes were fine, but Kanter and Burks are young enough to mold their skills a little more rather than play solely to their strengths. Hard line to balance.
For sure. Having a lame duck coach didn't help.
 

In one post you seem to indicate that corbin was doing a good job with kanter and burks and then in the next post you seem to indicate that corbin was a lame duck coach and hurt them

"Maybe"

How do you evaluate Corbin on Burks' and Kanter's development when they've had no other professional coaches? What happens if those two don't develop any further or regress? It's too early to judge Corbin on development. We don't know what the "Corbin effect" is yet. So..."maybe".

Also, while the long-run development of the young players may have been delayed by Corbin's lineup and strategy decisions, I'd guess it's tough to get a lame duck coach to make decisions that increase the probability of losing.

The two statements aren't contradictory.

I see
 
Both dick moves imo.
One was from a veteran leaving the team (who i expect to be more of a professional) and one was from a kid with a language barrier doe.

But ya what kanter said was wrong too. (Notice how i agreed with you about that?)

What he said was the most professional thing possible.

Well how do you explain not hating everything about Corbin? You can't say "maybe" Corbin did something right around here and get away with it.
