    5/9: ECSF Game 2: Cavs@Celtics

    CLE at 46.4% from 3P; BOS at 22.9%; my guess is that the number of teams that have been outshot by that margin from 3P and won is vanishingly small. The other problem for BOS is that taking the ball out of the basket all of the time negates their transition offense, which is where they get a...

    The Cavs went 18-3 or something like that at one point. Doesn't seem to make a difference now.

    Even as a non-NYK fan, I'm hoping it doesn't end like the 2017 IT4 run.

    If JJ really wants to coach (and it sounds like he does) he probably would benefit from being on someone's staff but if he's offered a coaching job, I'm sure he'd just take it. He almost joined Mazzulla's staff this year but I guess he had golf err kid commitments if I remember the story...

    Good for him. Certainly paid his dues.

    Hart's on-off is fairly easy to calculate too and pretty significant! I think Lowe mentioned that NYK are leading the playoffs in transition points.

    It's just some staffers compiling them. They don't need sleep.

    Lowe said on his podcast that Brunson was averagin 1.6 points per possession on isolations. I'm sure that number didn't go down after tonight. Which is madness that they keep letting Brunson go 1 on 1 against Nembhard. Nembhard isn't a bad defender but he's just not physical enough for Brunson.

    Right, which is why most coaches try to limit how many minutes players play when possible. But YMMV.

    The finishes by Hart and Toppin were really great back-to-back.

    Minutes add up. Hopefully it's not serious though.

    (2) Denver Nuggets vs (3) Minnesota Timberwolves - 2024 WC Second Round

    It's not really an offense but more like a cheat code. When everything is working, the league really hasn't figured out how to defend the Jokic/Murray PnR and that's going back years. But as you say, everyone has to be healthy and Murray isn't - when he's shooting 9-28, the PnR becomes a lot...

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top

    You can look at the shots on NBA.com. Basically, when he got matched up vs Strus or Mitchell, he went 1 v 1 to either get the clean look or draw help. He just didn’t hit them.

    Jayson Tatum's Rise to the Top

    JT was 7-19 last night. He was 0-5 from 3P so he was 7-14 from 2P, which isn't bad. By my count he had: 2 turnaround jump shots - one was a baseline 15' that he normally makes and the other was one where he spun right (which he doesn't usually do) and made it. 2 one-legged fadeaways; both...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    Last year's JT would be shocked how open the paint is. He would also love to have a 50% corner 3P shooter he can go to. I'd like to think that last year's JT would still be making the correct reads but interesting question.

    Try it with a little song, a little dance, a little seltzer down the pants.

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    JT is not shooting well, but he is playing well. A large part of the reason he is not shooting well is because defenses are loading up on him like they have in the past. Can BOS win it all if JT does not shoot well? Well, if teams are willing to give the other guys relatively open to...

    Round 2: Celtics vs Cavs

    They are not as good as with KP but even without him, this team is way better than last year. Let's say that JT, JB, and Al are a wash. I think we all agree that DW is playing better than he was last year and for the most part, Jrue is a massive upgrade from Smart, particularly on the...
