PG Thread: Only Reason To Watch This Year Is KP6 

Post#1 » by AmazingJason » Wed Oct 5, 2016 2:25 am

AJ's Top 10 Takeaways:

1) If Rose and Noah are out for the season, and Melo is done, we can get Josh Jackson and win 3 titles with him and KP :nod: :nod: :nod:

2) Rose is still blazing fast. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT (unless he's out for the season due to tonight's injury). A Rose-KP PnR is UNSTOPPABLE due to Rose's penetration ability and KP's versatility. Dump this 90s triangle bullsh*t ASAP. I still see them try to run it.

3) KP looks like a 1st ballot HOFer. 7' 3" player with a pure 3-point stroke and a lightning quick crossover. My mind is blown.

4) Melo should have retired on top after getting his 3rd gold medal and crying on national TV. Guy can barely jump off the ground now.

5) Cut O'Quinn. He's like a black Santa Claus that doesn't give.

6) Jennings looks quick AF. He'll be a nice 1-2 punch with Rose at PG, or taking over for Rose :o

7) Time to delete the Baker avatars and sigs. Chasson Randle locking down that last spot. Baker looks too slow to be an NBA guard.

8) On an SD feed, I confuse Rose with Lee. Baker and Kuzminskas also look the same :lol:

9) Van Gundy needs to STFU about the domestic abuse sh*t. Rose's case is a f*cking gold digger.

10) Harden is going to be Steve Nash on steroids. At least until he gets injured due to MDA riding him like Secretariat.

31-51. So many things need to happen in such a short amount of time that this all seems destined to fail.

The Rockets hit 20 threes...the defense was sh*t all night. The offense looked unorganized, especially in the 1st half. KP looked great...he needs to get more consistent touches. It's still just the 1st preseason game, so we have a lot of time left to get a lot better.

Starting lineup sux. Check.
Too much emphasis on the wrong players? Check.
Expectation of injuries that cause a tailspin? Check.
No defense? GOLD STAR!!!
ESPN taking shots early and often? Check.

It's looking like another 32 and 50 record.

The only thing I did not like was Melo being a black hole. Need to see the Melo from last year, move that ball man. I didn't like him just looking guys off and going into Iso. There were a bunch of times where Holiday cut and was wide up for a layup and he just looked him off. Then again he had a shooter (Holiday?) wide open on the wing and he just went into tunnel vision mode and decided to go 1 on 3 in the paint. We need that mature unselfish Melo, not the ball stopping ball hog.

rose & kp can be pretty special together, for sure. no big is going to defend kp at the 3pt line, so the pnr with rose-kp should be easy offense for them. rose racked up 5 quick assists in 5 minutes in the 3rd quarter all on pnr


the question is obviously melo. he didn't pass out of the post once. he drew double teams and would still force up shots. odd game for melo

End the triangle. I was hoping (foolishly) that we would just use concepts of the triangle, like other teams, instead of still running traditional (and poorly run) triangle sets.

Honestly it don't matter because in a couple of years no one is going to be able to fux with Kristaps Porzingis.
