Anyone: What can you say about ESPN's analytics and prediction of 1% chance for the Spurs to reach the playoffs?

This is a very nasty prediction as if Spurs doesn’t have Wemby. I think that prediction is too low but I understand where they get it since the only addition they have right now is Chris Paul and some young players that still lack experience.

It’s very hard for Spurs to enter the playoffs but if Wemby- Paul tag team becomes fruitful I think nothing is impossible for them. The only weakness of Spurs before is they don’t capitalize on Wemby since their point guard doesn’t want to give the ball to Wemby.

With addition of Paul, I think Wemby can dominate the paint with a good assist.

A long time coming for Lonzo Ball to suit again for the Bulls, when we have playing before, they still have DeRozan. It's just one of those what if he has been healthy him and the Bulls during the time with DeRozan and Lavine, it could have been a different team.

But now DeRozan is no longer with them, and hopefully he will be 100% this season and let's see how far the Bulls can go because in the last couple of years, it's like a big disappointment for the fans to see them just making the first round on the playoffs or totally not missing at all.

These two just can’t seem to stay healthy. If Lonzo’s good, Lavine’s out, and the worst part is when they’re both sidelined. But honestly, even if they were healthy, I still don't see the Bulls as a championship contender. Their chemistry just doesn’t click, and from what I’ve seen, there's no clear leader on the team.

That's the problem, chemistry if not being established there's going to be a problem especially during the final minutes of the game, who's going to takeover and same with what you observe, both players wanted to have the ball and create their own plays, it's more on how the coach will design the play and how players will follow I mean how discipline the player will be.

For now, let's enjoy Lonzo's comeback it's been 3 years since he played if I read it correctly, let see if he'll manage to complete the season without getting injured.

Maybe there's problem with their system since they can't established a chemistry even if they play for many games.

They should rebuild everything in their team since if they trade their stars also hire new coach maybe for that matter they able to build a strong roster for their team. But guess there's no much big movement happen and Bulls remain a shitty team which also seems don't have plans to compete for a championship.

Lonzo and Lavine team up didn't end well for many years so maybe its time for rebuild just like what other teams did and now they became a championship contender now.

Lonzo Ball had himself a good outing for his first time back on the court. He ended with 10 points on 4/6 FG shooting and 2/4 from 3PT range. Not bad considering he only played limited minutes. I hope he can manage to stay healthy and help the Bulls get to the playoffs. They need the help now that DeRozan is gone.

I was able to watch majority of the first half before heading for bed, and every of his teammates were really cheering him on when he stepped on the court, he finished the first quarter with 2/2 from 3pt and he looked liked he's still got his range, for someone who has yet to play since January 2022.

That first 3-point shot that Lonzo did was first time in his career since when he's benched for too long. I'm happy to see him that despite limited playing time, he's still able to make 10 points.

Lonzo's return as evident imo would help the Bulls a lot against even elite defensive teams in the league, because he's going to be yet another shooter to be wary of for opponents, and just a decent ball movement/rotation would be all it takes to have a lot of open look 3pt shots, Lavine, Coby White, Patrick Williams all together on the floor would be a real headache.

To be honest, I though that he was still with the Lakers, that's why I was surprised that he had move to Memphis and has given more time and now has a good contract with Memphis. And it just shows that even if you are the son of a legendary basketball player, you really have to work very hard to earn a spot in a certain them.

Unlike someone recently, ehem ehem, B**y, Lol. But in any case, we wish this son of former basketball player to really excel just like their father. And hopefully, Scotty will continue to grow and find a decent team to be his home.

Scotty only played 6 games in a Lakers uniform, and that was in the 22-23 season. It's worth noting that he's been playing for the Grizzlies since last season, and I'd say he was good on the court, considering he averaged 12.9 points per game. In other words, he has potential, and I think he'll prove himself after signing that guaranteed multi-year contract.

Grizzlies, Scotty Pippen Jr. reportedly agree to guaranteed multi-year contract.

Quote

After excelling with the Memphis Grizzlies on a two-way deal last season, Scotty Pippen Jr. has reportedly agreed to a multi-year guaranteed contract with the franchise.

So it's good to see the legendary player's son will have a multi year contract guaranteed already. We have seen Bronny already, and I don't want to compare but for me Scotty Jr has more pop that Bronny himself.

Hopefully, he will be given more time by the Memphis so that we can see if he really has what it takes to be in the league like his father. And for sure, if he is going to be given ample time, I think he is going to take advantage of it and shows his talent.

He actually started with the Lakers, played just 6 games, and now he's with Memphis, averaging 12.9 points over the last 21 games. That’s solid stats for a young player. I believe this is the right team for him since they’re in a good development phase. Even without Ja Morant, they’re still a strong team. I like their coaching style because they focus on real teamwork, not just relying on their star player. So, he’ll definitely get good minutes, and hopefully, he’ll keep growing as a player.

The Grizzlies will probably have to be cautious with their stars giving how lucky they were last season with persistent injuries to their core players, although the signs have been really positive this preseason, but there is still a shadow of doubt hovering around how healthy the squad would be, meaning they likely would need all the hands they can get going forward.

Edey has slotted right into the team seamlessly and perfectly and the other new additions have been bright as well, I believe Kawamura would sure get his chances on the Grizzlies roster.

Don't get fooled by summer league and preseason. The regular season is much different and the regulars will mostly get all the playing time. Rookies mostly don't get a lot of time on the floor with a team that has high expectations of themselves. Especially rookies like edey. He is still slow and will get beat up down low with the lack of his athleticism. He will be fine but he will be slow to get playing time I think.

I agree there will be drastic changes to minutes distribution from what we see in the Pre-season from these teams, however I'm particular about Memphis, they don't have the luxury of a true center except if they switch too Jaren Jackson Jr or Brandon Clarke, Clarke looks sharp already just returning from a long term absence himself, while Jaren Jackson is still struggling with an issue as well, which is why Edey I believe should get good playing minutes rather soon than later, but we'll see I guess.

I was also impressed with how Yuki Kawamura plays during this pre-season. He's really impressing the team, the management and his teammates. I would love to cheer for him if ever the Grizzlies will give him a better and more decent contract for the regular saeson.

Yuki Kawamura is fun to watch, its like he has something new to perform each game he play. I think he deserve to get a contract from Grizzlies since their rotation became so good when he plays around. He's good to be their floor general and for sure that he brings good help to their campaign.

Let see if there's good development will happen and if Grizzlies would let Yuki Kawamura to be part of their roster this season.

There's a big consideration and I hope that they're not going to disappoint the fans on what he's showing right now. His experience really helped him to adjust with the big man that they have whom is Zach. Well, it's too early to tell with this line up but very promising one when the regulars come.

The problem at this point is Grizzlies is they already have three guards in their roster and provably if Kawamura will get a contract there provably he can get less minutes. So provably he cannot get decent minutes there. But overall its still fine since this is good step since maybe he can turn the table in favor to him if he could provide some outstanding performance for this team.

So waiting for further update on this since its really exciting to watch Kawamura to play in NBA.

For sure their wings and big mans will benefit on the plays what Kawamura could bring to their team.

It will be fine on his side, as long as he's signed and get maybe a year or two of contract. It doesn't matter to him anymore as he's showcased his talent already. The scouts from other teams are there if they ever needed someone like him. And if he don't get signed by the Grizzlies, I guess other teams that like him can also sign him, right? Because such talent cannot be wasted but then, if no hope he can always go back to his home country and continue to play there for his B League team.

Nothing surprising because after all, we've seen it happen in his last game with Golden State. Cheesy

TBH, I have very low expectations on him now that he's on a different team. The Mavericks fans are just hyping him up just because of how he played in the past in Golden State. Let's face the fact that what happened in the past might not happen now. It's just one game some might say, but let's see how his performance will be when he's on a different team. If he plays worse than last season, that shows that the problem is on him, and not on the team.

At first glance, his individual stats haven't changed much since that injury. His field goal percentage may have gotten a little worse, but it's worth noting that he can still score an average of 17-20 points per game. Either way, we'll see how he performs during the regular season, but for now, one bad performance in a preseason game is not an indicator.

Yeah right, We shouldn’t discredit easily all the achievements Klay achieved in the past since the talent is already there. I believe that he is just struggling to pressure for giving same result when he is healthy that’s why his performance becomes worst especially during GSW stay that Curry already get the most role for outside shot.

We are not discrediting him, we have seen his achievements, a 4 time NBA champion. But we can't really compare his performance back then with the kind of performance he had with the Mavericks so far. If that is his mindset, that he is pressured, then that mentality is wrong and he should have known better.

Quote from: Coin_trader on October 16, 2024, 05:30:56 AM

He needs to find his game or we will be seeing Russel Westbrook all over again when the skills suddenly downgraded when he was traded.

This is the common enemy of an athlete especially if there’s a high expectation on his shoulder.

Klay doesn't need to force it, it will come to him for sure, but we doesn't want to wait though. He should have the mindset that he will contribute with his new team and that a struggle is just part of it. He did suffered what we thought is a career ending injuries, but he went back and become a champion. That mindset alone tells us that Klay is a better player than what we are seeing right now.

Yeah, but still though, if we Klay wanted to put up a good performance, he should be doing it right now. Unless he is just playing possum and then when the regular season starts, he will start his game face and then play 100%. However, if you look at other players who have transferred, they are already performing very hard. We have seen Donte trash talking his former team the New York Knicks and then Buddy Hield as well and Melton also showing promises as a new GSW player. Even Paul George, he had a great game as a first time Sixers and then got injured next. So everyone is really giving everything in pre-season and it can be a good gauge on how teams will eventually perform in the regular games.

Hopefully things will improve coming regular season, else, it might be the beginning of losing his career if there's no improvement and he continues playing like this, fans expect from him after the trade take place and with how Mavs finished last season there's a lot of pressure on both side,

we might see him struggle but as a player it's your obligation to find your spot and start working harder to produce the numbers that your team and your fans are expecting from you.

But unfortunately people always look at the present situation. Look what happen when he score 0 last game that incident goes viral again and to many people say some bad words against him. For sure this situation hit hard on the side of Klay since to much expectation came up for him especially when he transfer to Dallas.

He really need to find his game and don't rush his decision inside the court. Maybe if he's struggling to find his shots best for him to contribute on other aspect. Need to shake up some pressure and focus on his game.

Yuki Kawamura is fun to watch, its like he has something new to perform each game he play. I think he deserve to get a contract from Grizzlies since their rotation became so good when he plays around. He's good to be their floor general and for sure that he brings good help to their campaign.

Let see if there's good development will happen and if Grizzlies would let Yuki Kawamura to be part of their roster this season.

There's a big consideration and I hope that they're not going to disappoint the fans on what he's showing right now. His experience really helped him to adjust with the big man that they have whom is Zach. Well, it's too early to tell with this line up but very promising one when the regulars come.

The problem at this point is Grizzlies is they already have three guards in their roster and provably if Kawamura will get a contract there provably he can get less minutes. So provably he cannot get decent minutes there. But overall its still fine since this is good step since maybe he can turn the table in favor to him if he could provide some outstanding performance for this team.

So waiting for further update on this since its really exciting to watch Kawamura to play in NBA.

For sure their wings and big mans will benefit on the plays what Kawamura could bring to their team.

Nothing surprising because after all, we've seen it happen in his last game with Golden State. Cheesy

TBH, I have very low expectations on him now that he's on a different team. The Mavericks fans are just hyping him up just because of how he played in the past in Golden State. Let's face the fact that what happened in the past might not happen now. It's just one game some might say, but let's see how his performance will be when he's on a different team. If he plays worse than last season, that shows that the problem is on him, and not on the team.

At first glance, his individual stats haven't changed much since that injury. His field goal percentage may have gotten a little worse, but it's worth noting that he can still score an average of 17-20 points per game. Either way, we'll see how he performs during the regular season, but for now, one bad performance in a preseason game is not an indicator.

Yeah right, We shouldn’t discredit easily all the achievements Klay achieved in the past since the talent is already there. I believe that he is just struggling to pressure for giving same result when he is healthy that’s why his performance becomes worst especially during GSW stay that Curry already get the most role for outside shot.

He needs to find his game or we will be seeing Russel Westbrook all over again when the skills suddenly downgraded when he was traded.

This is the common enemy of an athlete especially if there’s a high expectation on his shoulder.
