interesting how a player’s handle can be too good for their own good: lets them keep solving locally/on-ball — whereas a weaker handle forces more global/off-ball problem solving — so if their playmaking feel is inconsistent, the handle is enabling all of the bad habits

atp im comfortable saying that Jayson Tatum is the 2nd greatest playmaker in Celtics history, behind Bird
its not a leap anymore. its the norm. his combination of passing ability, scoring gravity, IQ, awareness, and PnR acumen is too much to ignore now. hes a legit Point Forward

Give me liberty, Give me fire, allow me to continue a meaningless games played streak and fire my coach every year or I retire!

Knicks head coach Mike Brown could be on the hot seat even if New York wins the East this year, per @sam_amick. “The noise surrounding the Knicks’ Mike Brown won’t die down unless they reach the NBA Finals, and even that might not be good enough for the first-year New York coach to be safe.” 😳

was gonna do a post about how Tatum might be better post-injury than pre-injury and as i thought about it more, ive realized, aint no fucking maybe. he flat out is.
this is the best version of him weve ever seen. this combo of IQ+efficiency+read making is God Tier. He Gets It™️

The post deadline Mets with Clifford/Benge/Ewing/Morabito/Wenninger - will be a better watch than whatever these Mets are lol

all this tells me is that, barring you’re one of the 2 greatest players ever or the beneficiary of the most fugazi finals run in NBA history, building your team around a mega-helio creator severely caps your chances of competing for a title.
scalability + versatility is key

@TheMetsX @ernestdove @PSLToFlushing @FarmToFlushing @bkfan09 He's probably a + defender at both idk if he's ++ but wouldn't be surprised
English
Let me defer to the experts here
I know he’s very fast, but how good of a defender is he in CF. Are we talking average, +, ++?

mini thread on the most interesting part of the article to me imo:

A “heavy front runner” has emerged in draft lottery reform to end tanking, per @sam_amick - Change the lottery to 18 teams instead of current 14 - Bottom 10 teams have 8% chance of top pick - Remaining 20% would be divided among the remaining 8 teams (nytimes.com/athletic/72340…)

@PenguinHoops CJ is 6'3", and apart from FVV, can you name any more?
There will always be at least a few exceptions to the rule. Stop being a jackass.
English
CJ McCollum is currently frying. Houston is completely rudderless without FVV.
Spain 🇨🇦@spainpnr
Spreadsheet FC we gotta make a new rule Anybody under 6’2 without a + wingspan getting crossed off the board from here on forwards
English
@PenguinHoops There's a couple exceptions but these outliers are few and far between
(Chris Paul, Kyle Lowry, FVV, Kemba Walker, Jalen Brunson)
Need uber efficient offense (Walker, Brunson) or insane ancillaries (FVV, Lowry) or both (CP3)
English
@icydesantis Okongwu a pf imo AND his team rolls out lineups with multiple non shooters hes in such a weird context that yea he also needs to be shooting them
English
If ur a five who don’t got a quick release + trigger AND can pull it as a trailer (think KAT/KP/Turner) OR need to take a couple since u are ur teams primary scoring option (literally just jokic and embiid) stay tf away from there

The idea that a 5 must extend their range is just not true; I'd rather a big be great on the offensive glass than take 3 33% 3's a game Spacing is more about player allignment and either driving the ball or getting a good interior catch Open catch & shoot 3's are not "spacing" the floor

Ant is probably 7 itl maybe 6 if we want to project Kawhi falling off due to health
JoelEmGOAT@A3per_
Sorry ass position, what was the last time a shooting guard was an actual top 5 or even top 7 player? Honestly if you a star SG in 2026 it really just means you can't pass

Guards with 6'10 + wingspans >>>>>>>

Scottie Barnes può essere una incredibile seconda opzione e CMB un incredibile facilitatore dal post/come hub e insieme posso ancorare una delle migliori difese della lega per anni. Ora a Toronto manca ""solo"" la prima opzione da mettergli insieme.

Not disagreeing with the tweet but I never see OG get his flowers he’s probably a top five or six wing right now
