Does Batum make you forget Outlaw?

[andalusian]

Ignoring Mills's low-sample size PER - our big 4, PER wise, this season, in order are:

1. Oden
2. Roy
3. Batum
4. LMA

Goes to show what crap PER is. Batum is two spots too low.

No. Dante made me forget Outlaw. Batum made me forget Martell (last year).

Nic as a starter, through six games this year:

28mins, 13.8pts, 3.3rebs, 1.7asts, 1.3stls, 0.8blks, 1.2 o, 57.7% fg, 48.1% from 3, 100% FT.

Sick.

Edit: he shoots 4.5 threes per game as a starter, so that % is ridiculous.

Another fun fact: any time Nic has played 24+ minutes he's scored in double figures 7 times

He's only played 24+ minutes 9 times

Travis Outlaw Shot an AIRBALL 3 today

From the dead center top of the key, against the Kings and down by 4 with about 15 seconds to go.....clutch


Why did you guys ever trade him?

 

[Pinwheel1]

No. Dante made me forget about him

That is what I was going to say. I like Outlaw, but Batum is better, and Dante is more of the utility guy that we need coming off the bench at the moment.

BTW KP made a extremely safe and correct pick by drafting Dante. Even though most of us had no clue about him.

What you mean to say is that the Kings so greatly fear his clutch performances that rather than attempt to guard him, they all gather around the support in order to move the hoop while the ball is airborn, for that is the only way they can force a miss.

A very Maloofish action indeed.

Re: Travis Outlaw Shot an AIRBALL 3 today

I'm going to see if I can get Denny to mask the names "Outlaw" and "Blake". From then on, all posts and threads would only say Travis ****** and Steve *****.

So if their hobbled teammate got arrested, he could be referred to as ****** *****?

Thank you for yet another Outlaw/Blake thread.

Yeah I like the Dante pick. Pendy, not so much. But hitting 50/50 is pretty good for 2nd rounders.

 

[BGrantFan]

Yes.

He's also making me forget Webster.

 

[LameR]

Re: Travis Outlaw Shot an AIRBALL 3 today

Merge this with the other one please. Doing this is no better than what kingspeed does. At least keep it all in one place.

 

[roydezlaw]

Webster who?

 

[Nate Dogg]

Batum: $1.118 million value > Webster: $4.344 million so far this season.

Outlaw is shooting 40% from the three point line and the Clippers are 3-2 with him including tonight's win against Utah.

I would venture that Drew Gooden has had a bigger impact on their team than Outlaw and Blake. In fact, the more Outlaw plays, the worse their team does (0-2 when over 20 min, 3-0 when under). But you can go ahead and attribute their recent success to Outlaw's presence if it makes you happy. Just know that the more credit you give him, the more likely it is that Outlaw becomes more famous than you.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Cunningham makes me forget Outlaw.


It's insulting to Nic to compare him to that chucker

I actually watched most of that Clippers game, I can safely say that the Clips probably won in spite of "Big Shot Trav."

Classic Catfish moment in the second quarter had him covering Kyle Korver on the right wing, the shot clock got down to .5 seconds, so of course Travis leaps into the air and into Korver's space to contest the shot he thinks is coming which of course Korver takes advantage of, chucking up a 3 pt attempt knowing at worst he's going to get 3 free throws, instead he sticks it and the Jazz get a four point play.

I don't hate Travis, but I'm not going to miss that kind of prototypical lack of situational awareness.

 

[SpanishFly]

With the way he has been playing lately? Do you think he is stepping his game up since Travis left?

Did you really need to ask this?

 

[SpanishFly]

Yeah I like the Dante pick. Pendy, not so much. But hitting 50/50 is pretty good for 2nd rounders.

or 2 out of 3 if you add Patty Mills? LOL and I won't say which way!

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Yes, Batum has made me forget about Travis. Batum has the potential to be an All Star like Scottie Pippen. Travis does not.
