Playoff P

OP is just mad because we didn’t trade for Rubio

 

[BonesJones]

He has a 8'-6.5" standing reach while the guy he's primarily guarding (or who is guarding him) is 9'-0.5". That's a BIG difference.

Exactly. He should be guarding Aaron Gordon like I said from the onset.

Always.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Not talking about 7 years ago. Talking about right now.

Norm is a better fit for this team (i.e. the whole team, not just dame) than CJ. And im not moving from that stance because it's so blantaly obvious.

Kind of amazing we got him for just Gary Trent and the ghost of Rodney Hood, really.

 

[Natebishop3]

LOL I wonder if Rasta has me on ignore.... considering he completely ignores my counterpoints.

you highlighted points but failed to add the context of FGA. CJ has averaged 6 more attempts in order to score those 7.5 more points. It hasn't been equal opportunity

CJ shot well in game 2, but in the first two games, he played shitty floor games, mainly when going full MeJ; and he's failed badly at running the offense. That's a big reason why Dame had to average 41 minutes, at elevation. Good thing there's an extra day's rest before game 3

He also left out the part where Norm is averaging .5 turnovers per game, while CJ and Dame are averaging 3.5

 

[Natebishop3]

I guess I just don't understand... of all the people who could be called out for this series...... you chose Norm?

Not Nurk?

Not CJ?

Not Melo?

The chart shows they are actually averaging 2.5 turnovers.

The raw turnover number can be a bit misleading. Dame is actually doing really well considering the weight he's carrying. 4.6Ast/TO is great. Norm has a 4.0Ast/TO. While CJ is at 1.0Ast/TO.

Yup, sorry about that. Thought I saw 3.5 yesterday when I was looking through.

 

[Freshtown]

Could we trade him for CJ and filler if the Clippers implode?

Who would you want? George?

 

[Freshtown]

Yeah. If we could give up Simons/cj for pg, then resign norm. Possibly see if a MLE center could upgrade nurk defensively (would have loved gafford).

 

[blazedanugz]

I think it would take CJ and Covington and a first....I’d still do it

 

[Natebishop3]

I want Kawhi. You add Kawhi and this is a championship team. But I don't know why LAC would want CJ if they deal Kawhi.

If only you could see my post highlighting the irony...

clippers are never dealing Kawhi unless it’s a sign and trade and they have no choice

Basically he would have to WANT to come here. I didn't get the impression from Norm's article that he and Kawhi were especially close. Not besties. He was closer with DeRozan.

I don’t think Kawhi is close with anyone. He seems like a really introverted guy who picks his boogers and talks to himself on the sidelines.

lol

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Thought Powell was about to turn it around, but he's minus 27 on the series (by far the worst starter) and 3-13 from three. Starting to wonder if Derrick Jones has earned more of a chance.

 

[BlazerBeav]

He nailed the corner three to start the second half and I was thinking we were about to fire up, then he bricked the same shot the next time down (and then RoCo the possession after that did the same).

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I NEVER DOUBTED NORM FOR A SECOND!!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

(Still zero rebounds, though)

 

[MickZagger]

oh god. No rebounds? That’s your gripe?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

No my gripe is that you have no sense of humor.

 

[Chris Craig]

We already have a playoff P
