Damn, what if Giannis able to succeed working on that decent shooting percentage? With that height, with that leap, with that strong body, with that long-span, with that athleticism - he is a hell a complete all-around player.

I would not expect too much though. Maybe he can raise his percentage for 10 to 15 percent, that's it. He is not a natural shooter so there are limitations to his improvement no matter how hard he trained. I am yet to see anyone in nba who is not a natural shooter who drastically improved his 3 points shooting.

He can shoot 3 actually but not in a consistent manner, however, he can practice his jump shots in shorter range and I think that is doable and that could be a big improvement of his, not only he is a threat inside but also from outside.

Giannis needs to have a decent outside shooting percentage. It does not necessarily need to be 3 points. He just needs to make the defense spread out so that he has a better chance to penetrate.

That's the reason why Toronto Raptors able to pin him down during their playoffs match. His moved are predictable so the only thing that Raptors need to do is to think on how to stop that predictable moved since no doubt, Giannis is like a big wave pushing forward to the ring at all strength so a good defense is needed to slow that wave. Boston Celtics also know that but unfortunately, no one from them can stop that big wave.

I've been pointing that in the past too that Giannis needs to work on his outside and perimeter shooting. Honestly, he is working on it year by year. It's just that it's not his usual comfort zone but surely adjustments are being made. He is now seen taking more 3-points attempt than his usual.

Then we are talking about a muscled-out version of Kevin Durant here, with that kind of player he would definitely infiltrate and scramble out any good defense with the offensive prowess he would make. But if we are talking about spreading the defense I don't think the Bucks could always rely on Giannis on spreading the defense especially if the team wants him to be the main scoring option that is why they need to have shooters behind him, maybe that is the purpose on why they have brought Kyle Korver into the team.

Guys do not forget that right now Becky Hammon is next in line, that is the real head coach replacement SAS has right now and when Pop retires which I do not see happening for at least couple more seasons than Becky will probably be the next head coach unless she gets head coach offer from some other team before.

Tim Duncan is probably there to help Pop out not to become a Head Coach, I honestly do not even think he would continue this after Pop retires, however you can still be a coach without talking too much, you have to talk to refs when there is a questionable call, you can just tell the players what to do and you can just get them out of the game if they fail to execute what you said. Angry coaches could be very good (pop is quite angry himself) but calm ones could teach very well too.

Oh that will be very advantageous for Giannis to learn from one of the best shooters we have in the NBA. And we all know that Giannis weak point is his shooting although we have seen him taken 3's last season. But he needs more improvement, follow thru and what a way to learn from Kyle Korver himself.

Giannis needs to have a decent outside shooting percentage. It does not necessarily need to be 3 points. He just needs to make the defense spread out so that he has a better chance to penetrate.

And the passing also.
He needs to dish that ball in a better way and not just throwing it anywhere without some accuracy.

Let us make Jokic as an example. He is a big man. He can put the ball way up for the smaller guy to not reach it. Of course the defender wont jump just to reach it or it will be a risk to free up Jokic to penetrate the paint.
Giannis needs his sight to be widen. Use that long arms and stretch it like no one can really reach the ball while finding the right guy in three or a cutting one.
It could also be a good fake to make a good move inside.
He doesnt really need to be so much better in shooting. Just good plays with right patience.

More like a Duncan style which is just upgraded because of his speed.
It will be an easy triple double for every game or better, quadruple double.

The Bucks have a new addition in Kyle Korver. It's not a bad move because they really needed outside shooters and he is also a veteran which can help the younger players.

I just saw a video with him and Giannis practicing together. It looks like he is teaching that beast to improve his shooting stroke.

Well that is good. An active and proven shooter finally teaching him some proper strokes. If Giannis can be efficient with his outside shooting, it is more likely that they will reach the Finals this time.

I'm with you if he can do what Rey Allen does, because of that last 3 points he made on game 6 final round with spurs the game extended to overtime most of us know that was a heroic move from him. If Korver can do that too then there will be a chance for bucks to win their 2nd Championship after the long-time period.

Ray Allen is the greatest three pointer for me. Cavaliers as well as Celtics would not win without Ray Allen before. Korver is also a veteran player, he can make three points and sometimes getting burned with the game. But he cannot make what Ray Allen did in NBA. Anyway, Bucks is hard team last 2018 NBA season and if they adapted Korver, it will be a great game for those team who traded their players from a superstar.

Arguing about who's the best three point shooter and you do not include Reggie Miller with that conversation? For me all time great when it comes to three point shooting was Miller as far as I have seen.

Can't wait for the next season I wonder what Zion Williams got in his pocket when he finally faces the living legends like Lebron, Curry, and some other NBA stars out there.

And also Tacko can he still dominate the board if he faces the monster of the rim like Giannis and all of the best dunkers out there? Well, let's see both guys have enough room for further improvement. I wonder who gonna become a champion this season.

Some talented rookies we have right now, I expect too with Ja Morant to make his name within this season. For Zion, I guess there will be adjustment he will take on as NBA is a different league on college basketball, for sure it will be tough.

Tacko will be a monster on board and facing a height like that is not a joke unless someone with a Mamba mentality. For the championship, I gonna bet with the Clippers and to be honest I am really a PG fan and wherever he landed I'm with it.

You have too much hope for Korver, he is a good shooter but he is not getting any younger, his been transferred in different teams so probably it's hard for him to fit in a team.

TIM DUNCAN BECAME AN ASSISTANT COACH FOR SAN ANTONIO SPURS!

I was hoping Manu to get the job. We have seen footages of him running some plays for the Spurs before.

I think that is San Antonio's plan after all, they're grooming him to be their next coach for sure. So let's see how it goes for him, I mean he is well respected and have learn a lot from coach Pop and maybe being an assistant coach will give him the time to improved, like having conversation with the team and giving team 'words of wisdom', before eventually becoming their head coach, so let's see.

Yeah, maybe that moments where we see him at the path to the locker room is already one clue that he is going to have a part in San Antonio Spurs someday.

Quote from: Natalim on July 23, 2019, 06:18:40 PM

We only know TIM as a player, at least a good player but I don't also doubt the decision of coach Pop to hire TIM as an assistant coach, this coach is a legend with high standards in coaching and I don't think he will get an assistant coach that is not an asset to the team.

Well, most of the players now are on their road to being a coach or an analyst.
He is an MVP with a high IQ on the floor making good plays. I think this is his destiny.
The guy already made so much money out of his NBA career and this one might just be his pure hobby to still be in the game or watch new players on their road of success and also help them bloom to be a superstar.
I have no doubt about his genius mind but it will be a long road to be the head coach of the SAS.

Tim may not be talkative as a player but as Assistant Coach it will be different, of course Tim will do his job and will talk more to help the players and the team. Few more years from now, I guess he will replaced Pop as head Coach, not bad, Tim has also the ability of being a leader

Let's hope so. He mustreally change his attitufe in order to fulfill his job but I think he can do that

. When it comes to knowledge and experience, there is no problem at all since Tim and his team made into championships couple of times already so managing crucial situations like this would be easier for him now. Thus, I agreed for Spurs' decision to make him their new assistant coach not yet mentioning the fact that some of their players became his teammates as well so harmony of leader-follower relationship remain intact.

I hope Manu will become part of the coaching staff someday too

But, Is Timmy really that talkative to be an assistant coach.
I mean, I dont really know the guy but base on what I saw when he is in bench with his team mates, he aint that much of a talker. Coaches needs that.

I just hope he gets some good lessons with Pops, then Maybe he could be a coach himself of SAS.
He had been there for so long even after retirement giving tips to Aldridge.

Can't wait for the next season I wonder what Zion Williams got in his pocket when he finally faces the living legends like Lebron, Curry, and some other NBA stars out there.

With him being undersize in the powerforward position he would definitely need a lot of time to adjust especially when more experienced and taller players are guarding the rim. Muscles aren't really everything when the one guarding you knows how to stop them. We all know that rookies on a bigger position takes time to adjust in the NBA unlike guards who can help out right away. So Zion really need to up his game to assure him the ROY title by the end of the season.

Williamson is really an athletic player back in his college days but I'm sure it will change now that he came pro. Your right, he's an undersized powerforward but if he adjust to his game plays like moving to small forward instead of powerforward then his athleticism will be of use.

Right, he will be undersize in the NBA and we all know that he is big but I think the NBA is very different, day-in, day-out, so he really needs to adjust as to not injured himself playing against the big boys now.
