    Harden wasn't a refined shooter coming into the league....

    The point isn't that they're similar players but that they would be similarly obtained....
  • Commented on Harris Ready to Get to Work
    Asik 2.0 would be someone such as Tiago Splitter who, like Asik, has improved his foul rate each year he's been in the league and could probably average close to 30 minutes a game and not kill you on offense....
  • Commented on Harris Ready to Get to Work
    In college you're asked to do more then you will likely place on you NBA calling card. He isn't going to be a ball-handler or asked to drive, but the ability to grow as a defender would need to be...

  • Commented on Harris Ready to Get to Work
    "In addition to his duties with the Rockets, Hinkie and the rest of the Houston front office recently turned their lens toward minor league basketball with the first relationship of its kind where an NBA front office managed the basketball...
  • Commented on Harris Ready to Get to Work
    I shouldn't have factored in Parsons, wrong draft year, but look at their contracts: http://hoopshype.com/salaries/houston.htm I'd like to consider this a Hinkie machination as he was their cap whiz, but either way their intent is clear and the end-result masterful....
  • Commented on Harris Ready to Get to Work
    http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Predicting-NBA-Draft-Success-and-Failure-through-Historical-Trends-1362/ Drafting in bulk isan effective way of hedging your bets. With Parsons being a plus starter at less than $1M in salary, and Lamb helping them get Parsons, Jones and White don't even need to turn out for them...
  • Commented on Harris Ready to Get to Work
    Yes, adding any long-term contracts is not wise right now. Other than Richardson they don't have any bad contracts which should give them the necessary flexibility to add around Jrue and Thad. I would like any decisions on Turner to...
  • Commented on Harris Ready to Get to Work
    Without taking into regard Thad, Bynum, or the teams current composition, Millsap is my favorite free agent in the market....
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    28 is the falling off point for NFL running backs, but between 28-32 is still considered "prime" in the NBA. I don't think there's a worry about CP3 underplaying a max deal, even in the latter years of a contract....

    He's running the timberwolves now....
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    If the 76ers resign Bynum they may as well build on damaged goods and find a way to bring Granger into the fold. I wouldn't be averse to sending Thad and the $27M he's owed over four seasons for a...
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    Apparently David Kahn almost traded a second-year Flynn and the #4 pick (Wolves would end up drafting Wesley Johnson) for Danny Granger and the #10 pick (Paul George!), but talks fell through. Great read for those who haven't gotten to...
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    Jason Collins is not the first gay NBA player. Awful analogy, GoSixers. Living in the deep south, being from the northeast, and ethnically not being from either, I have an idea where the country is at and where its failures...
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    I find it interesting that despite all the claims of him being a revolutionary mind, his draft followed the standard Parcells foundation of pass rush (Bennie Logan), pass protect (Lane Johnson), and quarterback (Matt Barkley)....
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    I totally agree that this is a non-story. It's based on the qualifiers of him being currently active and in one of the four major sports. There's already a prevalent LGBT presence in the sporting world and his coming out...
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    Certainly he can't speak for Jason Collins heart or any homosexual that is also Christian, his failing is in believing he can make those claims. However, I don't see the leap you made between disagreement and hatred, based on his...
  • Commented on A D-League Team, Yippee.
    What part of his statement showed a lack of comprehension or expressed hatred or ignorance?...
  • Commented on Bynum Is the Only Answer
    Commenting on Tray's suggestion to take an NBA-ready prospect, to which I respond: no way! I know you just threw out McCollum as an example, but if he had the athleticism to defend at the next level and finish inside...
  • Commented on Bynum Is the Only Answer
    When he last made the interview rounds that was the general hold-up. Teams were scared away by his commitment to the triangle. Considering Kurt Rambis' failure in Minnesota, I would be hesitant as well....
  • Commented on Bynum Is the Only Answer
    http://www.csnphilly.com/basketball-philadelphia-sixers/sources-mike-malone-high-sixers-list-replace-collins?utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral With Mike Brown out of the picture, here's another name to surface in the head coach searchs. Mike Malone, current assistant in Golden State. I'd prefer him over Shaw and the triangle offense....
  • Commented on Bynum Is the Only Answer
    This was not my attempt at being Maximillian from Pi and What you're describing is not viable either. In the NBA, to be successful, you need to start at great and then rise to dominant. This can be with great...
  • Commented on Bynum Is the Only Answer
    If we're going to compare them statistically then the fairest evaluation would be both of them at age 22. That would be this past season for Jrue and Deron's second pro season. If you look at the advanced stats for...

    Because All-Star reserves are selected by coaches and the USA Select Team are hand-picked by the National Team staff....

  • Commented on Bynum Is the Only Answer
    For every Westbrook and Harden there's countless more Wesley Johnson's and Jonny Flynn's. I agree that that OKC model isn't viable. My wish for this offseason is similar to yours but a bit more of a reach. If his knees...
  • Commented on Bynum Is the Only Answer
    From a talent standpoint I don't think the discrepancy is very large. If you look at the intangibles, clearly that sets Deron apart right now, but time will tell if Jrue can develop there. Jrue is only a month older...
  • Commented on Bobbleheads For All
    He bit on Dieng's pump fake near the three point line and gave up an empty lane to the cup. Four years of top level coaching for that?...

    If you can't count on Smith in the clutch then where does that put Young who has consistently disappeared in big games?...
