Gasol rebound! Half way to his total last game, though Griff has 11 in 8 minutes

I'm a trend setter.

I set trends.

Tbh it's only prepubescent girls that talk about trendiness. Then again I'm guessing that's your thing

[TDMVPDPOY]

does anyone have stats the grizz pace play at, opp fg% compared this season to previous season if they actually improved on defense?

[irishock]

That final glimpse of hope before the final nazi sign is epic tbh

There's a picture of Katie-girl & I in the foyer. The families had been at Euclid Beach Park on a late Summer day. We're shoulder-to-shoulder, fast asleep on her mother's quilt. My pa snapped the picture as the sun began to fail the sky. We're both topless & in white underwear. She is 4. I am 6.

Marc Gasol has become the most overrated player in the NBA, tbh..

Average post game, not a great rebounder, he doesn't stand out as a player, tbh, yet he might make an All-NBA 1st..

cant give it to Dwight when the team is defensively

his lack of scoring drives me nuts when i watch the Grizz play. its like he's not even looking for a shot

[FkLA]

you're so much better, and looking down on us because we wanted our franchise player to get recognized for his greatness

Dont even waste your time bro, hes a perfect example of the dunning-kruger effect tbh. Hes so stupid he has this false sense of superiority. He once made a thread ostracizing all the 'gnsf' because in his mind he thought all the greys believed Amused making game threads injured spurs players. Even though numerous people were trying to explain to him that people were just having fun with it/being ridiculously supers ious intentionally. He stood by his thread and called everyone stupid. True story. Hes the dumbest guy on ST by far tbh.

Is Gasol the least dominant DPOY ever? Its not all about stats but 1.7 bpg and 8 rpg is pretty pathetic for getting this type of honor. Hes a solid defender but there are atleast a 3-4 more deserving big men, including a 37 year old Timmy.

[FkLA]

spurraider, can you provide the link for the pick and roll defense? Want to see how Gasol stacks up against other top defensive big men tbh.

no dice. i had actually been looking for a metric. i was moreso going with what i've seen watching games. his ability in that area reflects Parker's struggles against Memphis, imo. watching the games, you can see him get out there and hedge pretty high. now, its nowhere near prime rasheed or KG as far as how high up he gets, but its much more than, say, Timmy, who sort of just sags off and hopes the guard takes a mid range jumper.

while searching for a stat or metric, i found that just about every article that popped up on a simple google search praised Gasol's pick and roll defense, whatever thats worth. seeing how Memphis' defensive rating plummets with Marc out even more than the Spurs D falls with Timmy out tells me Marc is a better defender than some guys, like our friend brunodf, give him credit for. whats funny is this entire conversation started with my saying Timmy should have been DPOY, but Gasol is a deserving candidate in his own right, and brunodf has been on my nuts since i dared to call another big a good defender. spurfan raves about tim's awareness, iq, positioning etc, even though there's no metric for that.

You should be happy; Kobe won the last game he played and them s made the playoffs.

Tony Allen > Gasol on his own team
