max power Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 15, 2012 -> 08:49 AM) Say what you want about Doug Collins, but he's just made another unwatchable team watchable again. I don't know if Krause and JR were incorrect about his ability to take a team from point B to point C, but is there anyone better taking a team from point A to point B? The Bulls he had Jordan, but Detroit, Washington and now Philadelphia were garbage when he took over. I once said what I wanted about doug collins about three years ago and I was banned from here. What I spoke about doesn't seem quite as far fetched in light of what happened at Penn state and Syracuse now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has to be more to it than saying what you wanted about Doug Collins. GMAB, The Mod and Admin team goes through a lot of deliberation for the most part when it comes to someone getting banned.

Dick Allen Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 15, 2012 -> 01:24 PM) Thibs >>>> Doug Collins Perhaps, especially for the long haul, but if you have been awful for a while, Collins' brain is one you may want to pick. He has a knack of making historically terrible teams at least playoff teams. His act may or may not get old quickly, but if I'm running the Bucks or the T Wolves, I'd hire him in a heartbeat to coach and if he doesn't want to do that anymore or gets sick of it, make him the GM, and/or team President. I always loved when he was coaching the Bulls that when the game was over, he looked like he just played 48 minutes. He would be soaked in sweat. He teaches guys how to win.

Adelman doesn't seem to like Williams very much this year. Beasley's numbers won't stay this bad all year, but if your league places any emphasis on efficiency, I doubt you'll feel too bad dropping him. Williams is a different question, but his minutes probably aren't going to make a jump anytime soon. If he's playing less than 20 minutes a game now, while Beasley/Webster are out, it's probably not a good sign for when they both get back. Who knows, maybe he'll start to eat into Tolliver's playing time instead, since Tolliver has been pretty bad so far this year. I wouldn't hold my breath, though.

It could take some time but you could probably do it just with the Basketball-reference.com game logs for both. If you're going to spend 20 minutes searching, you'll save time if you give up and do it yourself. You could export each season into Excel, sort by "Points", and then compile W's and L's for every game where ach is above 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weird thing is if I tell it to include playoff games, his 63-point game isn't there. Oddly enough, it looks like that game isn't even in their game log database. That's VERY weird.
