Coincidentally found this tweet where it explains what Brunson is doing. He’s also coincidentally one of the league leaders in it so it’s fair to say it wasn’t an accident
"THE KOBE ASSIST".
In 2012, Kirk Goldsberry unveiled a unique statistical phenomenon where 15% of Kobe Bryant's missed shots led directly to points.
Kobe's perimeter gravity was so immense that his heavily contested shots regularly drew double and triple teams, leaving opposing defenses completely out of position to box out. In many instances, Kobe would deliberately attack a defense knowing his trailing big men possessed the rebounding advantage.
Goldsberry calculated that Kobe's team scored off 15% of his misses, meaning that a league leading 54% of his total shot attempts resulted in points.
Kobe Bryant didn't care about FG%.
Kobe Bryant cared about WINNING.
This is basically an open shot & you know you have numbers advantage for an O board with no wemby in the paint, arguably best shot possible outside of OG 3 ball but that lets Vic get back to rebound. With Jalen shot, the d rebounders were castle & vassell vs Hart, KAT & OG..
Ultimately, you can argue there were better shots to take but to say this was a bad shot is an ice cold take. Oversimplifying the play. It reeks of Paul George “that’s a bad shot”
@coachnatebdraft Cooper Flagg, Ace Bailey, AJ Dybantsa.. Kinda super specific criteria that not a lot of guys fit. If you drop it to 6’8 the list is super long but 6’9, thin, can handle & isn’t a big at all is kinda tough to find those guys at all. 6’9 typically atleast PF territory
You give them a arcade game and they’re so conditioned to breaking the game that’s why they focus on 😂😂😂. They do it with simulations and arcade games . So don’t ever tell me it’s the developers and not the fanbase . It’s y’all . Y’all made this shit trash
How can you watch this angle of the Victor Wembanyama contact with OG Anunoby and still go “Yeah! Wemby was trying to stomp out OG!”
OG isn’t moving.. Wemby is clearly avoiding direct contact.
Lowkey… OG tip in was Fox fault too lmaoooo him & wemby but he was in no mans land, not close enough to double but still giving OG a free lane to crash
Y no one was guarding the inbound just for Brunson to still get a clean catch is beyond me
@ssj4maurlce I can’t.. 28-3? Might be able to hear that cause it just didn’t phase me fr it was just funny
The Seahawks?? Man that was my favorite team (excluding bears) at the time, I didn’t talk for like 2-3 days afterwards bruh. This will be forgotten soon imo
I genuinely can’t think of a worst loss in sports history.. that’s worst than 2016, worst than the Seahawks not running the ball, worst than 28-3. Worse than LeBron in 2011.
If the Pelicans and Bucks are open to a deal centered around Trey Murphy III and the No. 10 overall pick, I think this would be the type of trade that could convince Giannis to stay in Milwaukee.
Murphy would be a perfect fit alongside Antetokounmpo and a capable co-star.
It’s no coincidence that all the vampiric hoarders of wealth dislike this man, it’s just confirmation that they don’t see us as people who deserve better lives (inherently, not only after back breaking labor). we’re just consumers & “the help” to them
Not gonna lie. Online gaming and the meta around everything really ruined childhood style gaming. Everything has to be online, social, full of tutorials and guides and "best way to win". The exploration and creativity is gone.
Bc only on twitter do yall treat a school recess lvl act of malice as a legitimate attempt at ending someone’s career. It only don’t make sense bc you’re intentionally ignorant to what would make it make sense, that being one is often dangerous, the other is often not
The “face hit = automatic flagrant” thing is so stupid bc how is that a flagrant but grabbing a players leg and lifting it off the ground to trip him is not even a technical foul 💀
