@StoolGreenie “Plenty of numbers” pretty sure this guy is just nerd surfing the box scores and advanced metrics and not watching any games

Doesn’t have an ironclad All NBA team with 28/7/5 on a potential 50+ win team that could finish a top 2 seed??????
Andy Bailey@AndrewDBailey
Is this recent push from all over the media just because Jaylen Brown is on East Coast? I'm genuinely curious, because Brown doesn't even have an ironclad 3rd Team All-NBA case. Plenty of numbers point to Derrick White being the Celtics' best player this season.

@AndrewDBailey “Plenty of numbers” y’all gotta watch the damn games man.

Awful Announcing@awfulannouncing
Today on 'PTI,' Michael Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser both say Jaylen Brown is the NBA MVP right now
English
@StatMagician @BteamBradbee @Impliedhades @AndrewDBailey Does everyone on this app not understand that a huge reason guys like Hugo and Baylor and Hauser etc are giving the Celtics good minutes is because of the gravity created by Jaylen’s offense? Do you guys watch the games?
English
@HouseofFlagons @AndrewDBailey Feels like lots of projection and/or identity issues going on here.
SGA may win for a second year in a row and I assure you it ain’t for his defense my brother.
English
@AndrewDBailey It is part of black American media pundits reclaiming their league from the slow, white interlopers from Europe. Now defense is the most critical piece of the MVP criteria (because whitey doesn’t have the quickness to play it well).
English
@AIScreenplays @AndrewDBailey How quickly we become accustomed to wonder. Jokic is averaging a damn triple double again, shooting 57/38/83%. He is the MVP again, and also should’ve won MVP last year. Idc about voter fatigue he’s the best player, every year.
English
@AndrewDBailey I think it's East Coast bias + the totally unexpected awesome season from the Celtics + Jaylen Brown LOOKS like how an MVP is supposed to look. It's obviously SGA or Wemby
English
I’m late on this but @VanLathan saying there are no significant lightsaber fights in animation is blasphemy. Ahsoka vs Maul during the Siege of Mandalore is one of the best in all the canon, and Ahsoka vs Vader in Rebels S2 one of the most significant to the lore

holy smokes have the boys over at @CorridorDigital seen this? When real life imitates art (in the worst way)

Jayson Tatum (Lu Dort management) ruled out Thursday.
English
@_Njay3 And then the third quarter happened and JB shredded them. So yea you’re tripping
English
@vevosuave maybe he should've tried being an elite winner instead
English
Impact metrics have took us to a place where we treat high end role players like gods and elite scorers like bums.
DJ@GiftedByGame
Half the population woke up one day and just decided to talk like Carmelo Anthony wasn’t one of them ones. It’s only going to get worse as time passes
English
@rannlou @ygeasymoney Love the "Tatum isn't clutch" narrative. Guy only averages 26.7 with 9.3 boards and 5.1 assists in 7 game 7s, including a 51 point game 7 vs. Philly. He averages 24/8/5 in the playoffs for his career.
English
@ygeasymoney For everyone defending Tatum, you do know he was generally garbage his two finals run and won one in spite of shooting 39 percent on the field and 26 from three.
English
If Tatum got drafted to an organization like the 76ers he’d be ringless with no legacy
Gotta stop letting ring culture determine everything comparing guys who played with way better teams
CelticsUnite@CelticsUnite18
CARMELO ANTHONY is lecturing Jayson Tatum on how to win in the NBA, the media is not real lol.
English
@ygeasymoney Carmelo was a free agent. He could've left the Knicks. He also never attracted great teammates who wanted to come play with him. He wasn't a winning player, no matter how many ways you wanna spin it. Just cause you can get buckets doesn't make you a winning player.
English
@jus7110 @calvingonba It’s still the same argument. If he doesn’t make the finals all those years, You’d sit there and say “the east was weak, why didn’t he make the finals more?”
English
@calvingonba Context, Bron played in a historically weak east, you can’t give him extra credit for making all those finals and then ignore his losing record in them
English
People genuinely believe LeBrons got argument would he stronger if he was 4-0 in the finals instead of 4-6 and it’s wild.
Idk how 6 additional first round losses is better than 6 finals losses. Logically makes zero sense.
ᵂᴵᴸᴸ@BiasedHouston
Like let’s acknowledge that an argument against LeBron James’ GOAT case is that he was so good at the sport that his season, win or loss, would end in the Finals every year. And somehow that is worse than being sent home in the first round.
English
@calvingonba Literally what I say every time over the years people said Montana was better than Brady bc he’d never lost a Super Bowl. I said how the fuck is losing in the earlier rounds somehow more noble than losing in the fucking Super Bowl? Preposterous
English
@royceyoung @hardwoodjunkies Dude the leg kick outs are absolutely dirty and intentional. Watch anyone hoop anywhere and that’s not a naturally part of anybody’s shot. You shoot, you jump up and down. Nobody naturally has one leg that kicks out at the end of their jumper, cmon
English
@hardwoodjunkies I love this highlight reel. Especially when one of the clips is simply Dort jumping for a rebound and PG landing awkwardly. Pick any player and watch them for a season and you can create a reel of the same stuff. Bumps, inadvertent contact, selling calls, all of it.
English
Look, Dort's trip last night wasn't good. Bad play in an intense game.
But this idea Dort is some long-standing, well-known dirty player is a myth.
Career flagrant fouls/technical fouls:
Draymond Green: 21/124
Rudy Gobert: 20/66
Dillon Brooks: 13/101
Lu Dort: 6/9
English
@PranavSriraman @WoodromeJacob Observation says if Luka took every second he would’ve spent complaining, and instead used it to run back and actually try on defense, that people might actually respect him more. We gotta stop rewarding offense only players who don’t try during half of their job.
English
@WoodromeJacob There’s zero justification. None.
We have access to too much data and information, along with our own critical thinking and qualitative observations.
English
Luka missing out on a first team All-NBA selection to Jaylen Brown would be a pretty horrendous mistake from the voters.

updated MVP odds:
English
@bballbreakdown the correct answer is also the player who was closest, how do people not see it? smart rotates up and (in theory) there are three guys on the other half of the court to close out on his guy if it swings again (though 2 of them are on the floor)
English
One of the more fascinating developments out here is most folks' lack of understanding of how defensive rotations work. I have yet to see anybody correctly point out the player who was most at fault on this play. It's wild.

I've gone back to the OG Zodiac @TheRewatchables pod a few times, so I was pretty stoked to see @SeanFennessey @ChrisRyan77 and @BillSimmons put out a fresh pod on it. You guys should check out this video I made on the final diner scene a little while back youtube.com/watch?v=jMXlPS…

@the4majorsgolf @navitistrong @rBillSimmonsPod Those guys are just louder than Zach is. They’re infinitely more stupid.
English
@navitistrong @rBillSimmonsPod I think it’s more that BS doesn’t want a true peer sitting side by side him on any of these shows. He’s not comfortable going back and forth with a Nick Wright or a Max Kellerman. So almost all the talent is B list at best with most falling in the C range in terms of gravitas.
