I paid $130 to pick 5 teams since I really only care about the Bulls. Edited November 3, 2013 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most explosive backcourt in the game. Either one of them can go off for, like, 8 3's in any game. I hope Bogut can stay healthy. He's an elite rim protector and good rebounder when he is. They'll be even better when Barnes gets back. Very nice team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thxfrthmmrs Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 The player who will have higher basketball IQ, better jump shot, and 5 more inch vertical, we are still waiting for his return apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Nov 2, 2013 -> 08:28 PM) Anthony Davis with a decent line: 25 Pts, 8 Reb, 4 Ast, 6 Stl, 6 Blk He's good. FG percentage is a tad low at the moment but I'm sure that'll significantly improve as well. It's kind of an odd cast of characters they have there in NO(besides Davis) but I think they can be pretty dangerous by the end of the year.

I feel like his "decision making" was actually pretty solid yesterday. He got a lot of open looks for people, particularly inside, and the shots he was taking weren't bad shots, he was open on the perimeter, just bricking them.

Honestly, I didn't watch last night's game until the 4th, definitely saw a lot of sloppiness in his ball handling. But the basketball smarts I wanted to see from him in the first 2 games would have been play more of a distributor when his shots weren't falling, rather than forcing the issue by driving to the hoop. If defenders have to pay more attention to his teammates, shots will open up for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know his minutes have been a bit limited but we're nto talking about him going 9/30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know his minutes have been a bit limited but we're nto talking about him going 9/30. Him going 9/30 would actually improve his FG percentage. His FGA is right at his career average, and good for 12th in the league, despite playing 33 minutes game. Again, it's more about the quality versus quantity of shots he's taking. NY game is a good example, his mentality was to force the shot until he hits one or gets a foul call. Getting 4 assist per game at his usage rate at the PG position is comedic. That's also not what I expected when he said his basketball IQ has improved. I fully expect better results from him when he finds his rhythm, but the last 3 games hasn't really been fun to watch.

DBAHO Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Oladipo's already putting up some very nice numbers off the bench, a 19/6/4 line today vs. Brooklyn. Having him on the court has made Affalo a much better player for Orlando also. I've got mixed feelings though in terms of if everyone for the Magic is healthy (no Harris or Davis currently), that's probably a 30 win team at least, and that doesn't get you Andrew Wiggins.

The team that has the worst record never seems to win the lottery anyways. Besides, getting Julius Randle or Dante Exum (if he comes out) wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. They do have some nice young talent. Vucevic is way better than I expected when they acquired him, Oladipo is legit and Harris and Harkless are fairly solid (my fantasy needs Harris to get back though!).

Yup he was like 8-11 in the 1st half, triple double for Steph as well. GS had 98 points with 3 or so minutes left in the 3rd before they stopped playing.
