Solid analysis.
Didn't pay much attention to him (extremely overrated) but this i've seen more thunder games and this dude is dumb as . Half the time he doesn't even know wtf the team is doing offensively. Tons of examples like not screening for the PNR that precedes horns or not screening for the (rare) loop they run for westbrick. I mean that isn't on the coach (brooks sucks anyways) or on the PG.
He is jumping on every fake, it's beyond laughable that he gets DPOY consideration.
Monkeyballer extraordinaire benefiting from favorable refereeing because he's on chokc

Brooks turning him into a stretch 4 has ruined his offensive game. He's taken more 3s in 1/2 a season than his previous 4 years combined, more than anyone on his team, causing his scoring and oReb to go down.
Don't know why more players don't just up fake on this dude. Jumps every time.
Multiple analysts have commented that he's not smart enough to learn the sets on either end of the floor. Which is saying something considering how dumbed down their system is.
Steven Adams already overtook him as the OKC's best bigman on defense. Meanwhile african policeman is busy working on his 3pt shot
got
Ibaka is maybe overrated but he is key for OKC against certain match ups... His sole presence almost killed the Spurs last year tbh
You need a shooting pf to put Okc at risk tbh. Takes Ibaka out of the paint and he is unable to punish them in the post. Dude gets locked down by Bonner.
That's because the Spussies are scared of being blocked. It's pretty pathetic to watch.
Or just have CoJo dunk in is mouth
yup. Throw a damn up fake and he'll jump every time.
man, a year later and you're still trying to push your Steven Adams take? Take the L, it's over..
Ibaka is a monster, tbh..his on/off metrics are always great, too..
He has become underrated IMO..
His on/offs are definitely above average, but to call him underrated is quite a stretch. He's not playing at dPOY or AS level, which is the media anointed reputation he has. Brooks turning him into a stretch-4 is so irresponsible
I don't see the problem with Ibaka being a 3 point shooting big when he leads the entire team in 3 point percentage and the Thunder don't any shooters outside of him, Durant, and Morrow.
Except Policeman is NOT A 3 PT SHOOTER. he just thinks he is.
Boner, Dirk, Love are big man shooters.
That's why Steven Adams is now OKCs best big man. Imo. Trade Ibaka for something imo
Like an oversized jumping kangaroo!
