They need 1 more guard who can shoot.

Daniel Fries

Great breakdown. Suns giving glimpses of dubs a few years back with all those 3s and that spacing.

Athletic Alchemy

Yeah Dame is in his prime right now, Books got a few more years .

Athletic Alchemy

for sure, but CP and Bron have very similar mannerisms and look down gather moves. also watch when they decide to pull a walk up 3.

Athletic Alchemy

Im not sure they need all that , there are a couple scenarios.

Moreover, with your point of players teaching other players, wasn't it Harden who influenced CP to copy that infamous gather step back move. I've seen Lebron and CP emulating Harden's cross tween legs size up package but they're more stiff. I've even seen KATtry do that when Harden switched on him.

Pirate Ramsay

Your take of Book>Dame will age very well. Not now ofc, but in the future, Booker's willingness to pass and size will lead him to become the better player, once Dame runs out of "time".

The Suns need the Grizzlies to lose out bc the Suns lost all 3 games against the Grizzlies this year, but it's good to see that they have some young developing players. Ayton has all star/ all defensive team talent, but if the dude is going to continue to do this dumbass shit, then he might be on the outside looking-in in the near future. How do you miss a Covid test in that bubble is beyond me

John Z

Book looking damn good. Great stuff as always.

Athletic Alchemy

Agreed.. LA can match them small and switch everything on Harden

José Francisco

Not related, but given that the Nuggets just lost, which route do you think it'd be best for the rockets? Lakers or Clippers in the 2nd round? I feel like they have a better shot at beating the Lakers (their perimeter defense is looking awful RN). If they do then anything can happen in the WCF

Athletic Alchemy

Makes sense.. but it feels like we are going to see some funky things in this bubble.

Occam's razor is a philosophical razor that advocates that when presented with competing hypotheses about the same prediction, one should select the solution with the fewest assumptions, so that means Portland makes the playoffs.
