I don't think it was a coincidence that we went on a winning streak with him out.Last edited by BasketballCrush; Fri Mar 1, 2013, 09:16 PM.

white men can't jump wrote: View PostIt's not sympathy man, it's wanting the guy to play better since he's on the floor. How is that anything other than wanting the team to do better? You seem to relish the negative impact he has on the team, like it's validation of everything you've ever believed. Nobody cares how much you hate Bargnani. We just want the team to win, and he's on the floor, therefore we'd rather see him do well, and actually hate him for mistakes he makes, not for Alan Anderson passing it to his ass.
I think the forced playing time, is precisely why Andrea is so bad. This idea that you can play yourself through your mistakes was dumb, all it creates is habit. We are seeing how bad habit is to break, with Andrea giving us ZERO hustle out there.
He did not get a rebound in 14 minutes, but we are happy that he made one basket. This is getting beyond ridiculous.Last edited by BasketballCrush; Fri Mar 1, 2013, 09:20 PM.

If the D is giving him a 20-foot jumper off that pin-down curl he should be passing it up and looking to half-drive to further collapse the D and then kick out for a 3. The D is conceding the long 2 because they know it is an inefficient shot. We want to generate shots at the basket or open 3s from that action, not long 2s.

The thing it's important to remember is that the D would rather he pass the ball than take the shot. The plan is always to make the scorer give up the ball. You want to make others beat you and you want to make that player become passive. Sometimes the jump shot is exactly the right play, even if it doesn't go in.
