A deep dive into basketball. For the love of the game

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Just a guy that loves the game breaking down EuroLeague, Lebanese League, and NBA (If the alarm works)

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

LBL is brought to you by pickup basketball

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Ghattas might not be a bad coach
But he’s definitely not the man for the job
The team’s level has not changed since the beginning of the season
Spacing is catastrophic
His philosophy is not adapted to the team nor the league

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

What I don’t understand with joe ghattas is wtf is this style of play
What’s with feeding the low post/foreigners iso handling possessions

You have WH, PB and Yoyo why on earth are your systems not about creating driving lanes and mismatches

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Buddy podz JK post and a few picks
Should do it IMHO

[Evan Sidery @esidery]

The Warriors appear more open than ever to the idea of including Brandin Podziemski in a trade.

Podziemski, who was ultimately the hold up in a Lauri Markkanen blockbuster deal two years ago, would help Golden State add a much-needed impact player before February’s deadline.

Sagesse is throwing $ like no tomorrow to prevent players going to
Riyadi (yoyo/OJ/sikwik/gio etc)
If Jihad doesn’t find his way to the US he might find himself in yellow and blue
And I don’t expect Zammata or Rtail to be back and play in Leb with their success in Europe

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Give or take 2-3 years max before Riyadi becomes a mid team

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Why? Because there isn’t the calibre of local players the league needs to build a good team

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

If I’m ralf akl im putting Ledo back on a plane ASAP

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Idk why Farran stopped the trap after the screen, Ledo & Cosy haven’t thrown a single pass inside

It was clearly working and throwing UA out of rhythm

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Everywhere in the world teams are developing the P&R to exploit the delay/mismatch except in this stupid league
Where foreigners ball hog the shit out of the possession and take
horrible shots
Antonine could’ve had so many opportunities just throwing it to Chapman on the roll

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Always always always set an elevator play for a buzzer beater
Especially on 3pts

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Qatar went for the double on the last 4 possessions knowing we will ball hog
Ffs pass the ball

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Someone show this to the players

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

How can you not understand that Qatar is going for the help on the roll/low post/drive
They have been doing it all fucking game
KICK + extra pass ffs

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Our issue is not defensive but offensive, we’re clogging the paint and it’s getting hectic for wael to fight through and score

Why not try a different 4-out approach with dedric at 5 Wael Kz/amir sergio yoyo

Would open driving lanes + drive and kick, if spaces used correctly

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

Sorry but Gerard should play 40 mins
His ability to hedge and recover is what we need to push goodwin back and avoid 1v1 with open driving lanes

[the wannabe analyst @Awanabeanalyst]

🇱🇧 if we want to win this game it has to be 40 mins of full defense, boxing out and doing the dirty work

Wael runs the offense, okay fine but we rely heavily on the P&R which I personally don’t like
Our battles to the basket are so tough due to lack of off ball
