Here is the statistic's main flaw:
If you're an engineer, as you say, you should see the issue.Quote:
RPM reflects enhancements to RAPM by Engelmann, among them the use of Bayesian priors, aging curves, score of the game and extensive out-of-sample testing to improve RPM's predictive accuracy.
If y'all don't think we've been at our best this year when Tony doesn't even look to score... You're not watching. I wouldn't blame tonight on that tho, he scored early cause it just came to him easy and he took it.
Wearing his blame Tony helmet and all.Quote:

No stats are perfect dumbass. They still have weight though. :lmao
That committee is 59 and 11 or whatever. Might go for 68wins this year. :lmaoQuote:

Personally love what he's done this year for the most part. I think, with exception of a couple stretches, he's been great in continuing to transition to a floor general role. And he's played good defense for his ability. He'll never be able to guard Curry or Westbrook, but he's doing what he's capable of at a higher level than ever.... If we can get the rest of the guys to snap out of it, that's where the scoring needs to ideally come from on most nights. Gotta have more points in the 2nd unit. I kinda think Pop saw Manu was fine after that first game back tho, and has a leash on him. I really expect him to jumpstart that unit when we get a little closer to the finish line.Quote:

TD struggled against GSW and was sat down bc he could not handle the matchup, was slow making rotations on one end, could not punish them offensively on the other. I saw a distinct effort to get him rolling this game. He got a lot of plays and a lot of PnR. That is not to say we are going to be playing like this in the playoffs, but Pop wanted to get TD confidence rolling. That is why Kawhi was frozen out for a good chunk of the game at times and the ball in Tony's hands a lot. When you play TD offensive sets have to take advantage of the bigs bc otherwise they just clog the lanes for dribble penetration.
Pop IMO was trying out his BIG man based offense and seeing what they could do against a team that was playing small/perimeter ball for a good chunk of the time. Charlotte was able to put on display why this BIG man line-up can get killed in the playoffs. They cheated, playing passing lanes as everything is more congested with two big men in the paint, were very active defensively and killed us in transition off our TO.
Dwest was our worst big against this team. Fouled a 3 pts shooter for a 4 point play, was passive, passing up good looks for himself, didn't want to man up inside, TO the ball, and was very slow getting back on transition. His assigned big outran him for easy buckets couple of times and he can't defend in the perimeter.
Make of that what you will. Pop wanted to see the big men step up against a perimeter team and it was a disaster. CIA Pop.
Right, it had nothing to do with the fact that, for going on two seasons, the shooters can't shoot on the road (at least against decent or better competition) and your boy isn't even a threat to.Quote:

Duncan, Aldridge and Parker, were the only ones who brought the proper amount of energy, focus and intensity.

Spurs let their guard down for sure and when you get caught doing that especially on the road it can be tough. Especially against a team that's playing almost as good as anybody in the league.
Danny Greens shot looks like Charles Barkley's golf swing right now. Shit just ain't right.
Feel like Mid is fastly becoming a caricature of himself due to all his previous threads backfiring. Spurs lost to the Hornets. Sucks, but it's not a big deal. Charlotte is better than any team Golden State has lost to this season besides the Spurs. This doesn't point to critical issues with SA any more than GS almost losing to Minny point to their issues. It's just a game.
I think in games like this team team feels a lot more the fact that manu is still recovering and is clearly noticeable.
Before the injury he was playing very good defense and dropping 9-13 point games every night, moving the ball and limiting his turnovers.
Since his return, and aside of his return game, he has had at least 3 turnovers a game almost every game, has not dished assists nor control the tempo with the second unit and his defense has been subpar.
If Manu and the bench plays well this games are 10 point wins. The problem is Manu isnt and the rest has dissappeared.
Also pop changed the rotations and that is not helping a bench with a subpar ginobili, the second unit usually played a lot with green or kawhi, now they are playig with anderson, who i dont think should share the court with manu.
Either patty manu kawhi boris diaw
Or patty manu danny boris diaw
Yeah, Manu coming back hasn't helped Anderson much at all. Also, Pop isn't prioritizing defense the way he had been. Maybe that is because the Spurs are pretty much locked into their seed at this point. It makes more sense to get Martin acclimated than it does to give the others playoff minutes.
