@FirstGiants @MarshallGreen_ You don’t know ball

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Dude whos your plug I need what your smoking.

Brunson got them in position to win in the first place… are you dumb?
Even then, the shot was blocked by Wemby.
If you look at the replay, that shot was going in, but Wemby got a finger on it

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds No he wasn’t stop lying. You worship ppg. Anyone can put up 20 a night, Landry Shamet could if he started. It just so happened that Al sucked.

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds You act like Tatum was out

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Don’t matter Brunson’s points ABs Cassidy’s outweighed towns rebounds

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Still that’s not insane loss on the offense. That’s like losing Bridges’ offensive production. McBride can put up 20 a game when he’s starting

Id look more at your teams ppg. If Al averaged like 8ppg and no one else stepped up then fine, but usually someone steps up

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds According to ESPN Brunson’s PRA was 37.7 and Towns was second with 34.6

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Who tingus or Al

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Yeah mentality applies to the individual. Leadership deals with how you treat your teammates… and I’d say Kobe and Jordan weren’t good leaders. So again.. that’s where leadership is distinguished and accounted for separately

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Brunson just did the exact same thing.
I’m dead serious look it up

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Right.. cause averaging 33 ppg in the finals comes from 2 good minutes

Stupid

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Al didn’t need to be the first or second or third option in 24, so however much worse he was Tingus was greatly diminished due to him having a much much smaller role

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Right. So if it didn’t matter, why do we measure it?
Why do we praise Kobe’s mentality if mentality doesn’t matter?

Try using crayons to figure it out it might help

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Since, meaning every year since then

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Delusion at its finest

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Cool

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Also wanna point out:

You said Brunson doesn’t replace anybody
Since then, you’ve conceded he’s better than Brown and Wemby.

Now we’re just arguing Tatum. My point still stands regardless, because you’ve conceded Brunson is better than some of the players listed.

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Since 2022-23 when Brunson signed with the Knicks btw

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds Brunson’s a slightly lower ppg in the regular season and higher in the playoffs
He has more apg than Tatum

Brunson has had a much bigger load in terms of carrying than Tatum
He did a lot more iso early for lack of a second option
Tatum’s the leading scorer in a balanced offense

[. @___________dan_]

@Y232WRF @notoriousCZAR @Moursalolesalo @OnyxOdds You didn’t ask stays tho, you asked about basketball capabilities. Mentality is absolutely a capability.

If mentality doesn’t matter why is Kobe praised for his?
Why do we say “X has a mamba like mentality” if it don’t matter?

Sure you can’t measure it, but it matters
