Re: Former Raptor discussion thread 3.0
Oh look. Here's a recent tweet from the guy you cited 3 days ago in asserting the knives are out:
?t=68abPuu60ZVXaE-Tuk-kNA&s=19
The level of troll desperation has never been this low. "Look everyone....a Rockets fan posted something on Twitter. I am LAUGHING OUT LOUD".
I respectfully suggest that the mods step in here
I've never made a private request to a mod because that's not my style. This is ridiculous. When the knicks and pacers lose in the playoffs I'm sure there will be lots of random pacer/knick fans who make tweets about whatever happens with OG and Pascal in the losses. And it would be pathetic if ppl start searching and posting those tweets here too.
You could literally do this with every player in the nba. Ie finding a twitter acct that makes negative comments about player x. This is pure trolling.

The Fred experience comes for us all lol
Then again....the Malachi flynn experience only came for you lol.
Remember when you spent an entire season insisting Flynn was being held back by Nurse based on a pre-season game against the magic? You were also claiming that flynn and Terence Davis were our "backcourt of the future".
I did a quick search on twitter for a random twitter account hating on Malachi flynn or Terrence Davis. Couldn't find anything. Why not?

Its OK to disagree with his opinion. Questionable shot selection is a common criticism in NBA. Have better FG% and people won't bring it up. They criticize Green for the same thing, except maybe he's worse.

It's ridiculous. If ppl want to criticize a former raptor in this thread that is fine. But combing through other team's Twitter fanbases and publishing random tweets is nothing but pure trolling.
I have no doubt that we could do this with pacer twitter after a couple of the first Pascal games. But the troll agenda regarding Pascal is not strong enough for someone to spend their time doing that thankfully.

The tweet is questioning his shot selection which i do not agree with. On fact look at Houstons young core they are getting their reps vis a vis shot attempts and usage.

People associated with basketball don't bring it up because point guards have the lowest FG% of all the positions. This is due to a variety of factors that have been explained to you multiple times.
The random rocket Twitter account you cited disagrees with you btw:
?t=KBxxgfy8_poP5-pfQ9PsKA&s=19
It's actually hilarious that you failed this badly in searching Rockets Twitter for ppl saying bad stuff about fred.
"The knives are out" he says. Perfect.

Fred is a catch and shoot guy primarily. When they question shot selection, its contested shots on perimeter and at the rim. That is the cause of the inefficiency, especially when he forces things.

Doesn't disagree with me at all. And posting his response in another tweet is contradictory. Its the same guy. Obviously playing with a guy like Green may make you force things on the court due to lower BBIQ.

Catch and shoot guy who has been top 5 in assists for the entire season.
How you are completely ignoring the most important metric for a point guard in favor of FG% is just insane.
It's like ignoring a center's FG% and pointing to their lack of assists.

His fga is the lowest it has been since 2018-19. Hes deferring to the young players like senguin. Why would one question his shots? The rockets young core are getting their reps. Are his decisions re shot selection leading to losses? Last i checked the rockets were expected to be dog shi.t this year but coaching and vet players like fred have elevated them.

Getting shots and their shot select, can be 2 different things.
I think it was tbe main boards, or our trade thread(can't remember) that had a video of Green's poor shot selection....and it was horrific.
I won't comment on Fred and what he is doing in Houston and his shot selection...but I have an idea....lol.

Jalen green is attempting 1.4 more shots per game on 7 less mpg than fred. I invite you to perhaps jump into the advanced stats to take a look at the quality of shots green is taking vs Fred.. i have an idea on that

A lot of us have said this repeatedly for most of last year, but some refused to admit it, looks like Fred felt the same
