HGH? Seem to remember him wanting to change the NBA logo from Jerry West to Jesus Christ or something then coming in the league and getting strippers preggars. Such is life.

NBA superstars just keep on delivering

really, I can laugh all I want at Rooney/Terry, but various nfl/nba mvps raping broads, getting teenage girls pregnant, killing dudes, gunwaving et cetera is really special

So apparently Rubio haven't gotten any better for a year or so and can't shoot fish in a barrel:

Ka..............hn, way to not get Steph Curry in that draft

unsurprisingly Popovich isn't rated very highly in a list that ranks coaches by "most minutes played by the best players"

Rubio is turble.

Obviously. You have to approach things in perspective, like SA probably does so knowingly. But in the vast majority of the cases, the goal of the coach is to identify their best players, and play them. I think this metric does a decent job of all that.

In all fairness, Rubio actually has looked pretty good. And on/off court stuff looks fine. He's a very good defender; it's not essential to be a scorer. That
said, he certainly is looking more like a role player, rather than a building block.

No it's not. If I was responsible for hiring a coach, this sort of analysis would get exactly 0 weight from me. I can tell the coach who to play (or by extension, hire a coach who will use my input), and the idea that it is only rare exceptions where this is the case is hopelessly naive.

Ok, suggest a better way to do it

bobboos ladies and gentleman.
the guys a genius. showing us stats that are vital and crucial.

hahahaha

Lol jetto

Hiring someone who gets alot out of hisnplayers, is good in the locker room and is willing to be a puppet master would be ideal

I posted a month or so ago that both Sloan & Stockton said the compressed schedule wound up killing the Jazz in '99, tho they did start 16-4.

Speaking of which, someone supposedly with the Jazz was in my buddy's restaurant last night. Black guy, pretty big, early-mid 40s, with some hot blonde, I just saw him briefly when I went in to say hi.

My buddy talks to him later, says the guy said he was an asst coach, tho all I know about for Jazz asst's are Scott Layden & Hornacek, so maybe this is all BS tho buddy is German so maybe he misunderstood, buddy doesn't get his name.

Anyway, guy tells him he thinks they'll miss two seasons, says the owners are totally "dug in". Also said the staff is really bummed out as they want to get started on "building a new program".

FWIW, guy could've just been having fun with dumb whitey. Not sure if I posted a month or so ago that another friend of mine had lunch at a table by Jazz VP Randy Rigby, overheard him say "doesn't look good at all" when someone asked him a bout the lockout.

Thanks for the story. Not surprising - Marion is a weirdo but he's always seemed like the approachable type. It's like his insecurities have prevented him from developing an unmanageable ego, which has inadvertently helped his PR. I don't really miss him but am definitely glad he got a title. Something you have to leave Phoenix to do, unfortunately.

Jetto and kbfc teaming up to own Bobbo was probably the highlight of the summer for this thread.

i like bobbo and all, but jetto's post is one of the harder 2p2 related irl lols i've had in a while.

I'm at bank of america doing money stuff. I'm talking to the rep who's helping me (I'm not w a teller, at a desk-that sort of thing), a hispanic fellow, and our conversation gets to basketball. I mention my league starts up today, and he immediately says "oh. Where do you play? Ill come watch!"

I did a doubletake like wtf? How strange is this? I told him people don't really go to the games, but he doesn't seem to get that.

He's into you.

I haven't gotten any email responses from you regarding CAC. Get at me.

Lol ya he's gay ...

Probably just wanted to ball brah and just came off all h0mo. Some dudes all all awkward about axing for a man date.

it was either this or he was gay. not that there's anything wrong with it.

really not sure, but it was bizarre

Or you gay.

So did you give him the info and is he going to your game?

Don't leave us hanging man.

No

Rick Adelman to Minnesota.

Why would he want to go to that abortion of a franchise. K Love I guess.
