    Simple math, tbh.

    but having more minutes with porker would drag him down, so it only makes his numbers more impressive

    Not surprising that one of the minutes leaders on the team with the best defense over the last decade would have an elite DRtg, one of the reasons why that stat sucks. But..

    Very true. When he was engaged, Tony could guard his position (even though people don't realize it as with the 2014 WCF). I'm not confident he could check elite PGs now, though, even if he gets healthy.

    Ya - there is no way, even if healthy, that TP could check Curry, Westbrook (who can tbh..), but he just has to find a way to not be a massive negative. He has to contribute by holding down the guys they hide him on. It can't be a "whomever TP is guarding, go at him" type scenario all year.

    Hopefully.

    Interesting that there is no sign of Kobe or Wade on this list.

    You guys said that last year. Jim, Parker, and Long Nose are old farts.

    Stinking Manu with the good math again. Angles, velocity, math, he is like a mad bb professor.

    And against opposing benches.

    Stats like plus minus, on/off, five man lineups, etc., don't mean much without context.

    Damn glad to see that picture of him signing. The team is just in better hands with him on the team. Break some more records before you go, btw.
