KG in his latest, talked about Jordan Poole not belonging in the league

just check out his start to the season, it's kind of unreal. +-, advanced stats, 16 FGA on 39% from the field and some of the worst defense you can imagine

turns out his rookie season was more foretelling and the rest was just a fluke, pretty wild stuff

Thought this was interesting. A long way from the Scottie Brooks days where the offense was your turn my turn.

So I just found out that the Denver Nuggets have been eliminated from the in season tournament. It feels like the tournament won’t matter as much without the defending champs in it.

What does a low shot release height mean for a player like KAT in statistical terms? Does he get his shot blocked or altered more than other jump shooting bigs?

I dont see tingus labelled on here. his shot starts low but might finish at an average height

KAT doesn't seem to jump as often as others do on his shot, bunch of flat footed 3s from him.
