Re: **The Official Karl-Anthony Towns Thread**
Gasol got two first team votes from Mike Fratello and Marv Albert. There has to be some correlation to them being on the same TNT crew and both voting for him. I don't know how or why, but it's too weird to not be related.
So many people voted for Green in the C spot that the actual center totals are low.

Re: **The Official Karl-Anthony Towns Thread**
I've seen most of them on the boards think that Embiid just has to be healthy to be better than KAT so I'm not surprised at all by this poll. Hinkie was the master of stringing along fans down the road of delusion. Can't believe they actually thought tanking was an innovative process, the only thing Hinkie did was announce the tank which gave him more time.

The only thing dumber than the poll are the comments on that post. It's truly remarkable how idiotic people can be.

Nothing surprises me when it comes to Sixers fans, biggest blinkered homers in the league.

Re: **The Official Karl-Anthony Towns Thread**
...after years of not playing competitive basketball at all and thus not developing it wouldn't surprise me if Embiid developed into nothing even if he was healthy (which doesn't seem to be the case).

Re: **The Official Karl-Anthony Towns Thread**
Read a pretty hilarious thread on their board comparing KAT and their core. Some of those opinions are so bad they go beyond being funny, and I just start to feel bad.

Re: **The Official Karl-Anthony Towns Thread**
Thanks guys,
want to dig into details about passing. I think an efficient passing should be our next big improvement. KAT, Bjelica, Dieng, Rubio are pretty good passers. We need shooter who can use this as advantage. Both Hield and murray can be lethal scorers playing next to KAT and Rubio, under Thibs.
P.S. Numbers of Bjelica, Shabazz shows that a) we need a backup PG b) Mitchel wasnt good at managing our bench

The percentages are only for those field goals made that were assisted not total field goals made though

Looking around the team stats http://nbawowy-52108.onmodulus.net/ydze84kh09ewkvabtsb6mkj4i#/team-level I was surprised to see that in this season we have not attempted a single one tip in.
Weird right?

I don't think anybody has , so I am guessing that the play by play data used doesn't use tip ins as a category of shot

The percentages are only for those field goals made that were assisted not total field goals made though
Towns made 537 2PT, 190 were assisted by Rubio, good for a .35% of Towns mades, and 93 were made by wiggins and Lavine combined (.17%). On 3PT 15 were made by Rubio of 30 mades (.500%) and 6 by Wiggins and Lavine (.200%).
