What if analytics took over the sport of boxing and said analytically the left jab and right hook are your most efficient punches. Don’t waste your time throwing other punches or fainting, just throw more jabs and hooks. Sounds kind of crazy.
"I wasn't allowed to shoot the midrange [jumper] my first two years... The only two guys technically who are allowed to shoot the midrange are Shai and Kevin Durant, because they are above league average."
Matas Buzelis was not allowed to shoot the middy his first two years in the NBA and is looking forward to changing that heading into year three 😅 @Xfinity
@RawnTheNotorius@drenchmansports Bigs don’t duck other bigs. Aja and Shakira battle each in the post and their guards feed them the ball. Love the W, old school physical hoops.
@EdwinGames4 Apple definitely polished MLS. MLS has a problem of injecting itself into mainstream American sports conversations. Apple should hire some non soccer ppl and create a show that talks all American sports and include 30-40% MLS topics on the show. MLS, NFL, MLB and NBA stories.
@EdwinGames4@AndrewVisnovsky I agree with you that MLS is a very watchable league and the quality of play argument is overblown by Eurosnobs. I completely disagree with your W take. I love the W and the basketball is quality and the product is really exciting.
@D_West30 Im one of the few people that believe analytics lead to injuries. Forcing 7 footers to clumsily drive to the basket or aggressively close out on 3s. KATs game looks trash, falling all the time. Centers can’t establish position and guards can’t make a post entry pass.
I’d be curious to see the 10am head to head ratings comparisons between @FTFonFS1 and @FirstTake. First Things First coverage of the World Cup has been great, they’ve covered the sport in a respectful non condescending way. #FIFAWorldCup
@Dasugo@LoLoByke Everything besides athletic ability, which he was given at birth. But to be more specific, better midrange game, better post game. Can a welterweight boxer beat a heavyweight boxer, most likely not. Can welterweight be considered pound for pound the best boxer in the world, yes.
@Dasugo@LoLoByke I never said Aja could beat a man at basketball. Of course JT, Giannis and her bf Bam would destroy her, that goes without being said. Put her skill in their bodies and how much better would they be. As men when did we begin bragging about beating women at something physical?
@BG32ZO2MB1@LoLoByke You’re arguing physical athletic ability, I’m arguing basketball skill. Bam can’t dominate the NBA like Aja dominates the W. Aja has more bball skill than her bf.
@breathingnblack @LoLoByke Those are your Twitter thumbs speaking. Flexing about beating a woman in a physical activity should be beneath any man. Needs to go unsaid.
@zacademicsRI @BG32ZO2MB1@LoLoByke Ask Giannis to be a reliable 3 level scorer. Clog the paint and he’s useless. Lose some of that athleticism he’d be useless.
@BG32ZO2MB1@LoLoByke Dude Giannis isn’t as skilled of a basketball player as Aja. He’s always been a superior athlete; bigger, faster, stronger. Harden called him out on this years ago. If Giannis had Aja’s bball skill he’d easily be the best player in the world.
