I have the Denver feed (NBA TV). What little gem did EC offer up tonight?

life story on dozier

didn't know he was related to reggie lewis at all. cool stuff

So not even info on one of our bench guys!!!

EC's research and memory recall remains undefeated.

I am 1,000,000,000,000% sure that Monk wanted to take Bol off the dribble and yam on his head just then.

Settled for the casual step back 3 instead.

cmon man are you serious?

yes. how many times is miles gonna go out and just be a bystander before yal wonder where he's at all game :lol: dude is in his third year and can't even manage a triple threat stance long enough for a defender to take him serious when he gets the ball

he's not a better defender than cody martin. will lose out on rebounds because he's only focused on the putback more times than not. he's off the ball all the time but never coming to the ball unless its a lob, zero off-ball action or cutting from him. doesn't even float to the 3pt line to keep defenders from crashing on the ballhandler.....

this is a bad blowout game so im not gonna single him out or anything but the expectations of the guy are so low for him that's actually hilarious how he still manages to disappoint

Only good thing to say is that everybody else in the playoff race lost too today.

You have good points about Miles, but the Martins are pretty bad. The better shooting one still barely has more offensive gravity than Biz.

Miles is shooting 37% from 3. we will all die before either of the martins shoot that in significant minutes. it’s not even close. both are garbage offensive players

miles doesn't even take himself seriously as a 3pt shooter lol

that % has been dropping every week since the hot start and every team we play is more than okay with leaving him open too. but the wildest thing is he doesn't even drift into openings and get himself good looks as often as he could. we all get on PJ for being in no man's land offensively but Miles is waaaaaaaaay worse about it

he's a complete passenger in every game.

at least the martins get screwed over being forced to guard centers as an excuse. miles a legit professional at this point who's started and played big minutes plenty - he should know how to do simple stuff to get himself involved in a game already. its getting ridiculous... if lamelo wasn't spoonfeeding him then he'd be even more withdrawn than he already is

Can't watch the games, so I opened up my Observer this morning to get the skinny on the Denver contest. Nothing. Why? The Observer still covers the Hornets, yes? Don't answer that.

Well, I then came here to the board and read the thread. Now I know why the Observer failed to observe the Nuggets game. Even they have a mercy rule, I guess.
