@DLocke09 Are the Spurs what the Jazz would be had they got a #1 pick? Both now and the Duncan era? Seems like both teams make savvy draft picks over time (John & Karl, Millsap, Kirilenko, Key) vs. (Bowen, Ginobili, Parker, Kawhi, etc) but only one gets rings because of ... luck.
@GoodmanHoops Absolutely. These drills are about seeing a guy's form when he's moving, catching, etc. Looking at form, footwork, release, hitch and dip. that's what front offices want to see. percentage is irrelevant here.
@mmc3039@NILnotNLI@SethOnHoops Absolutely. Perks aren't the same as all expenses paid, however. No qualms with players getting paid BTW. My point is if you want to be paid like a pro/adult then you have to have that in all facets.
@DLocke09 Is there legitimacy to a championship team needing an alpha? If so, is ours Keyonte? If not, is there concern Ace is too passive and isnt an alpha?
@DLocke09 Hornets are a great example of this. Did nothing for decades, now they're good and look like they have a winning mindset each night. Was it their kumbaya? More likely had something to do with drafting 2, 3 and 4 in a five year period...
