Joel Embiid's ability to get the free-throw line is talked about a lot but I don't think it's appreciated enough. He's one of the best ever at getting to the line. He's attempting 16.4 FTs per 100 possessions this year, (16.7 last year). This is only behind 2001 Shaq (17.4)!

@J_Pickup6 Stretch bigs are a myth for the most part

In this era of offense, your “spacing” C better be knocking down those shots at a super high level Or teams will just help off them to pack the paint

@J_Pickup6 For entertainment or networking stuff

I’m like 60/40 on going to summer league and need to decide this week

Jokic plays beautiful basketball…

@SIS_Hoops @knarsu3 How is xPPC calculated?

Ahead of the NBA’s Christmas Day action, let’s take a look at the players whose shooting numbers beat expectations by the largest margin. What stands out to you?

Magnifique

Everyone knows this but, again, statistics should never be the point of comparison between players. Statistics are a function of the player and their context, not just the player. It's very easy to manipulate stats. They're not nearly as informative as people make them out to be

@KGsGOAT Too many times do we see him enter the frame when the team has already taken a shot. This might apply to other offensive bigs too. If they're even just a bit late it can cause defensive breakdowns and lack of rim protection. Picking up players in transition is difficult enough

@KGsGOAT I feel Anthony Davis counters the perimeter offensive player specification (only player I've watched much of to say this about). While he scores well crashing the glass (disregarding stats), he almost always gives up the offensive team an advantage by being too slow to come back

The Nets went from being the scariest team I'd seen to this garbage in a year and a half lmao

It's honestly embarrassing

The Ronaldo discourse is horrible. I can't believe people are defending him for his actions. I'm not sure what happened but the things he does (not only today) are not justified at all ETH is not disrespecting him in any way. It's the other way round

Managers and coaches do this all the time. They want the players to be prepared incase they have to come on. Most players are asked to warm up several times a game without being subbed on. It's very normal Certain fans act like Cristiano is bigger than futbol

@TrentArnoId66 I just saw the Napoli Liverpool scoreline wtff? 😭
