Would u look at that, we actually blew out a team when we don't have someone trying to pad stats and take wild selfish shots the moment we get a 10 point lead. Nice seeing a team play as a team.

That "Giannis not that good" post a while back in this thread? Kid just turned 21 and is improving in every area each season. He can already essentially do everything but shoot 3's. Can score, pass, rebound, get steals and blocks, defend, does all of it. Was averaging 20/9/8 in the 11 games prior to this one with 4 triple-doubles. And he's 21.
Not bad for a 2nd round pick.
Bruno is 20 and was taken 31 spots higher.

Interesting things from the box score tonight:
Game was played at an unbelievably slow pace, meaning that our DRtg isn't as impressive as the score makes it look, clocking in at 104.2.
However, our offensive performance was way more impressive by the same token, at 122.3 Ortg, our 6th best performance of the season. We had an assist rate of 69.2% tonight, the third highest assist rate we've had all season. The Bucks only hit 2 3-pointers, the least an opponent has hit all season.

Therefore the change in the perceived ball movement is likely caused by DD, not JV

heres another random set of stats.
our top 10 highest assist games this year? record of 4-6.
our bottom 10 least assisted games this year? 8-2
In losses: 11.2 turnovers per game.
Obviously, all we have to do is turn it over more and we'll win more games.

not all teams have the personnel to take advantage of it. nor does ball movement even mean better offensive efficiency or winning.
going by full season stats last year, okc, toronto and phoenix all ranked in top 10 offensive efficiency but were bottom in ball movement.
meanwhile philly, bucks, utah, charlotte and the lakers were all top 10 in assists and yet bottom 10 in offense.
spurs (and now golden state) are probably one of the very few teams that actually have success with moving the ball.
kings were a bottom 10 in assists last year. this year they're like top 5. yet absolutely zero improvement in game outcome.

Yea.
Sorry.... You take any opportunity to hate on Demar.
But you lost when you forgot that when we played the Bucks on Dec. 26th
We beat the Bucks by 21 (111-90)
Demar had 22 points and 8 assists
The TEAM had 31 assists
So please explain that....

I have often wondered why so much love for the freak.
He has skills and talent but his teams have finished either directly at .500 or below break even for 3 years.
Its not like the Bucks have stiffs surrounding him either stunting his talents.
They have the 2nd overall pick in Parker.. .A bona fide 5 in Monroe and a pretty decent SG in Middleton... yet Giannas has "led" them exactly nowhere. He doesn't play with much fire. There is more hype than substance with him. That was a very quiet and unnoticeable triple double he put up tonight... well one assist short of the trip.
If DeRozan was doing this on another team, people would be salivating over him here lol.
