The Rockets are leading the Cavs by 40.....not even trying to hide it.

Is it just my impression or are NBA games ending up with more combined points than ever?

Me too.

be super aggressive in transition where he is unstoppable, but in half court be a pass first PG who uses his drive and kick game to set up teammates and score occasionally. He takes way too many jumpers early in the shot clock. Always has.

LOL @WiggyRuss for giving this a rainbow. You just love making stuff up in your own head, don't you?

For the record, I don't think all, or even most PG need to be pass first players. I don't even think Russ needs to be all the time. He needs to continue to be aggressive getting to the rim, especially in transition.

But,

the dude is shooting 31.2% on shots from 15-19 feet, 28.4% of shots from 20-24 feet and 22.9% on shots over 25 feet. He is great when he attacks the rim in transition, but his percentages show he is a terrible jump shooter. Since he is averaging 7.2 jump shots from > 15 per game, yeah, he needs to change. He has terrible shot selection given his skill set.

You trying to hard. Like usual, I have facts on my side to support my posts.

:pound:

Surprisingly, miss that dude. We had some battles but once I figured out he was just joshing.....we got along swimmingly.....he and MMA Fan were the 2 I wish had made it over here.

And I worry about Shield.....hope he didn't have health issues or anything, causing him to stop posting here. He was here for a little while after we refugee'd on the raft.
Shield and Otis disappeared.

I hope both are okay.

Has @clemtheslowson been around?
