It's not that difficult to throw a "no look" pass against Portland. Their defense at times is non existent and their players could just as well not even be on the court.

Yeah Lebron is unreal good, I think him and Jok have similar skills in that they seem to be really adept at when to add touch to the ball, when to zip, and when to bounce-pass.

BTW I think below is his best no-look. Obviously he catches Darrell, but it looks to be only in his peripheral and both players are on the move. That imo is what makes him so unique, he can be in the middle of a motion (shooting/dribbling/etc) and hit a cutter in stride who isn't even in his direct field of view.

He also fakes guys open which is nuts. Almost faked out his teammate.

It's almost as if there is more to the sentence than what was quoted.

Nerlens Noel: "I need to be on the court playing basketball. I think I'm too good to be playing 8 minutes. That's crazy."

"It's just too much on the coach's plate. So regardless of who handles it, I think there's a lot of frustration."

Eric Gordon is 2nd in the NBA in 3-pointers made with 100 on 226 attempts, just behind Steph who has 101 on 255 attempts.

i dont know wtf PHI is going to do but they already have a logjam which is limiting Noel to <10 mins a game, and Simmons will be back in a 3-4 weeks.

Embiid/Okafor/Noel/Holmes
Ilya/Saric/Simmons

they're gonna to need to get creative

Let me check why Nerlens is saying that at that exact moment

2 days ago :

Quote:

Nerlens Noel leaves ASM Sports, expected to sign with agent Dan Fegan

Dan Fegan client list : DMC, Arenas, Larry Sanders, Chandler Parsons

He was also Deandre's agent during the Dallas drama

This guy should be revoked by the NBA

man the agent relationship thing would really suck. if you know an agent is an ******* but you just really want the player to play for you. i have to imagine dan fegan makes it harder to trade for nerlens given his impending RFA
