Yes. He was not so subtly going bald despite it looking like he had a lot of hair with the dreadlocks.

WCJ is out tonight. Knee tendonitis

tendonitis

Is it Fultz “tendonitis”, or LaVine “tendonitis”? Or are they all the same?

NBA average last year: 57 TS% (Not sure what it is now, the mean is ~58 but I couldn't find a league-wide average)

Meanwhile:
Suggs: 60 TS%
AB: 59 TS%

League average TS% this year is .580.

Last year it was .581 fwiw.

The year before that it was .566.

"That's going to help. OG fits nice"

I'm pretty sure I heard that clear as day since they were less than 10 ft away from where I was standing.

Weltham might be going after OG

WCJ and a pick for OG fits the bill.

I like OG but he's HIGHLY overrated IMO

Lol, savage review! I hadn't noticed him looking balding but I can be pretty blind to that stuff.

Does Fultz have knee tendonitis or "Oopsimessedmyshoulderupagainitis?"

NY will try the same as Miami and Philly, how will they respond?

Scroll down to the bottom of the "Advanced Stats" section and you'll see league averages.

Goga starting is good

Can't secure the missed shot on the first shot for the knicks. Hartstein does exactly what Robinson does. Won't be gokd for the magic

Not too upset that Carter is out. He’s been awful.

3ddman23 · Post #58 » by **3ddman23** » Sat Dec 30, 2023 12:15 am

Again I would to see a stat showing the amount of times we force a turn over and give it right back on the other end. Feels like it happens a bunch with this team

3ddman23 · Post #59 » by **3ddman23** » Sat Dec 30, 2023 12:16 am

The knicks are pump fake kings. The magic have to stay down on pump fakes

I have asked this before with little to no useful response.

Why are we not giving Jett quality NBA minutes at times when Ingles, Harris and Isaac are all out?

I get sending him to the G-League when we are at or close to full strength but we all see how crippled we are, especially with spreading the floor, when all of those guys are out. You can’t tell me a fresh pair of legs on the bench isn’t good if for no reason than for his long term development. … no, 1 minute of garbage time doesn’t count.
