*42 assists...
any who, just a general question....on fast breaks, how come it is that we dont see more pump fakes by players? it seems like more and more they just take it straight up when they have a defending trailing. It seems like every season you just see less and less of it...like they dont want to do it or they just dont know to do it...that used to be the classic last out to have the defender take the bait and cross the offense up top...

I remember Cassell either last year or the year before faking AK47 out really bad on a 1 on 1 fastbreak. He went all the way to the hoop, faked the shot, and AK went soaring into the stands. He then just laid it in uncontested.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.
- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I'd take Dwight out while Zaza is in there. I sense Zaza getting close to laying some wood on Dwight. It's just not worth it.

Dwight Howard on his FT struggles:
"I just think everybody needs to stop talking about it," Howard said. "There's more to life than free throws."

well Sam is old school...that fake is so effective..
the Magic better resign Evans, or I might be following a 2nd team next season, that team being wherever he ends up...kid has heart and game...

maybe thats what svg wants him to do? Or do you just bash him because hes there?
I don't mind him taking 3's.. but thats a crazy amount.. especially when he shoots like 35%.. I'd just like him to work on his layup skills since he seems to miss those a lot
