Essentially you replaced Mathurin’s scoring production with Oubre who might be a slightly worse scorer but is a better on ball defender, replaced having no true starting five with an All-Defensive Center in Zubac, and brought every key piece back from the finals run besides Turner.
@VinnyBidatze@Connor54194816@NotPatMcAfee44@johndrichardson Okay I’m just saying if you run a big in drop coverage against the Thunder, Knicks or any other team with a great guard they will demolish that coverage. You can use your stats but I’ve seen it the last 3 years, drop coverage is a regular season cover. Does not work in playoffs.
@Connor54194816@VinnyBidatze@NotPatMcAfee44@johndrichardson Again I agree he’s a better player, idc how stats you give me on the court it’s obvious who’s a better defender.
I just don’t think the pacers were unstoppable becuase of their talent. It was way more about how well they fit together. We’ll see this year.
@VinnyBidatze@Connor54194816@NotPatMcAfee44@johndrichardson I don’t care what the data tells me, in no universe is Zubac a better rim protector.
Comes down to would you prefer the Zubac in between game or the pick and pop of Turner. I’d rather have the low usage pick and pop guy personally. Especially if it cost me a lotto pick.
@Connor54194816@NotPatMcAfee44@VinnyBidatze@johndrichardson Not only is Myles more versatile but he’s also a real rim protector which Zubac is not. Zubac is WAY better as a PnR roller and low post scorer, but I just don’t get his fit with the most up tempo team in the league.
Zubac is better but Myles was the perfect fit.
@johndrichardson@tweetquail I totally disagree ? You were better with the 5 out lineup with Myles and Mathurin off the bench.
That 5 out lineup where Myles could really switch and defend too was an absolute nightmare. Way different with Zubac
@NotPatMcAfee44@VinnyBidatze@johndrichardson A better backup 5 than Micah Potter ? Give me Ayton, diabate, Jaylin Williams, Queta, kornet, Goga, Gafford.
Even Zubac I think will struggle in the playoffs being a way less versatile defender and not a spacer.
There’s 0 correlation between the complexity of the gun and increased risk.
The “type” of gun protected by the 2nd amendment doesn’t change the intent of that amendment at all.
Birthright citizenship was targeted at LEGAL migrants to help integrate them.
NOT illegals.
Sorry but if you have a closing lineup with Pritchard (mismatch nightmare) and a either of their non spacing bigs you have to play perfect basketball otherwise.
Boston will definitely be Top-4 in wins tho.
This Celtics aren’t a contender stuff is laughable. Like genuinely laughable.
Tatum didn’t play most of last season.
And they were still elite.
So they lose Jaylen Brown…
• Add Tatum
• Add Paul George
• Add Mitchell Robinson
• Add Mike Conley
This is a Top-4 seed in East.
@hvacnicky@agraybee It’s always been this way!!!!
Yeah that’s why our immigration process has like a 9 year wait.
I don’t understand how this isn’t common sense.
Labor didn’t make the phone.
Labor made the phone affordable.
Labor followed the directions of a fascist regime.
Capitalism breeds innovation but labor dictates the cost of the innovation.
@LycanFerret I’m anti ‘isms’ in general. Us English speakers need to get back to using the Germanic rooted words and less words with Latin roots.
We’ll keep abusing old words and creating newer, less useful words that make communicating more difficult and context dependent.
