The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

[Elizah Huge]

The love affair for Jae Crowder on this site has been comical for the past few years. People like the idea of him more than him himself.

His EFG% for the 16 games he played for us in the playoffs was 43.8%. Do you know how bad that is? That would be third worst in the entire league this year.

Damn, if only we had those .04 charges drawn per game.

Or 0.5 more deflection per game. Or 2 more shots contested per game. Oh have I not mentioned Crowder plays less minutes per game than Royce as well? Again, it doesn't have to be like this, they could've played together

Jae is 6'6 on NBA.com and basketball reference. Royce is 6'4 sometimes 6'5 but never 6'6. If you ever watched a jazz game in 2018 where they played together you can see Jae is clearly bigger

I'm just gonna quote myself from this same conversation happening elsewhere:

Here are your real measurements.

Official player heights are supposed to be without shoes (which is how Royce went from 6' 6" to 6' 4", Donovan went from 6' 3" to 6' 1", etc).

The point here is size on the margins is kinda relevant but quite overrated in terms of importance.

Don't ask me why Conley is listed at 6' 1" on NBA.com when he is 5' 11" w/o shoes, while Mitchell is listed at 6' 1" when he's 6' 1.25" w/o shoes and 6' 3" in shoes. On that note, people need to not perceive them as the same size; Donovan is two full inches taller, has a wingspan four full inches wider, and is 40 pounds heavier than Conley (saying nothing of the difference in explosion). Mitchell doesn't have awesome size for a SG, but he's really not that undersized if undersized at all when you take everything into consideration.

You're a touch fixated on Crowder.

There are lots of Halls of Fame… for instance we used to hang our polo shirts with our names embroidered on them up on the wall when someone got fired or quit at the circuit city warehouse in Orem. I was a two time hall of famer… once in high school and once in college.

too bad we don't have royce combine measurement but watching them play together in 2018 still got me convinced that Crowder is bigger. but that's a moot point since him ain't coming back.

lol. Doka is averaging the same amount of time and more pts than Kanter this year. Doka.

 

[idiot]

We could've had ... But no point discussing it now since the ship has sailed

I don't disagree, but isn't like 80% of the discussion on Jazzfanz having just this kind of discussion (maybe only a slight exaggeration)?

If he is indeed working for human rights in China that's pretty admirable. If LBJ finds out he's jeopardizing his merchandising in China Enis will never play basketball again.

Not sure how I feel about an in-season tournament. I guess it could make the regular season more exciting.

In season tournament featuring who? What would the winner get?
