Lol if you don't see the difference between those jokes and yours my point stands.

If you took that perfect analogy personal I don't know what to tell you dawg. that's not equivalent to me saying I *** your mom. It was a good analogy that's all. I get the OBJ treatment on here so I don't even care.

Are you being serious right now? Like 4-5 people alluded to the guy, me and New Era were the most direct, a player who I´ve never had so that analogy makes no sense, I´m not even offended it was just out of pocket and came from left field is what I´m saying.

The joke wasn't personal or attacking. You kinda let everyone know who he player was so I drew up an analogy. It wasn meant to anger you, I thought you would've laughed if anything.

AD, keep believing mate, one day, one day I am gonna save you from the clasps of Ajincas, Asiks, Turners of this world

He doesn't play next to them now. Asik and Ajinca racking up DNPs. Also Turner in the same sentence as Asick and Ajinca.

AD should play the 4 dude. He plays center right now. In his best season in the league he spent the majority of his time at pf.

But I´ve never had that player before so the analogy doesn't make sense?? Let´s chalk it up as a misunderstanding :lol:

AD at the 5 has looked good, but he is taking a beating hence New orleans management contemplated discussing Dwight to help minimize the wear and tear

You draft for skill set, not per 36. Not a single playmaking center on his caliber left

Did I say he was the best center in basketball? no

But he is the best passing center in the NBA. He's just significantly better than Turner. Which was my point from the beginning. And thats no knock on turner because he is very talented. It's just how good Jokic is.

Post #1252 » by **j4remi** » Thu Jan 19, 2017 7:10 pm

Turner woulda been nice to land in my lap...oh well though...anyone with an impending pick (within the next 3) looking to trade down, make me an offer. I've got 57 and I'm willing to negotiate.

thats a ridiculous silly comment. Any stat in a vacuum doesn't make sense. If you are extrapolating per 36 from a guy who plays 10 minutes sure. That is dumb

But per 36 for guys like Jokic and Embiid is far far from dumb...that comment :lol:

As a NO fan I'd like to see Anthony play more 4. AD is a better offensive talent than defensive talent and that is best complemented by a defensive center to ease the rim protection burden and let Davis fly around on that end. Not to mention I like to see him use his length and size in the post and getting to the FT line more than his quickness in the face up.

Post #1255 » by **j4remi** » Thu Jan 19, 2017 7:11 pm

Jokic is really good, the weird experiment playing him at PF had him looking worse than he is but that dude is a high level prospect at C.

Deluded pelifan, as clueless as his front office who wants Dwight Howard, dont mind me please I am just pissed I never get the chance to build a small ball team around AD

Gotta consider things like stamina. To me per36 is only useful in comparing a guy who play 34 minutes to a guy who plays 40+. Otherwise role and rotations need to be considered. You are acting like a 50% minute increase isn't a big deal. It's totally different to ask a guy to put up 14 in 25 vs 20 in 36. It's easy to be efficient doing the former, much harder to do for the latter.

Why dont you guise look at per poss instead of per 36?

Yea I've just watched 95% of Pelicans games this season what do I know. He's spent 68% of his minutes at center this season, it's not working out great for los pelicanos. Not to mention guys like Cousins, Gasol and some others that haven't been picked yet still give him trouble when he has to guard them because he has a high center of gravity.
