That’s the new norm in the nba. These scores are a joke. Like seriously a joke. I remember when scoring 100 was a good scoring night. Now it’s 140. Games are 100-95 in the third quarter. The amount of 120+ games seems out of control this year. But people love offense so I guess they’ll love watching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like hypothetically if you think Rozier is great do you just give up a season to wait to sign him even if there's no guarantee you'll get him? Do you trade for a worse prospect like Russell that you'd subsequently have to resign anyway? There's got to be some present day value calculations there. If wall is available do you trade for him knowing it's locking in your roster extremely early in Isaac and bambas career? But you're getting a "star" player locked up long term. It's obvious that they're targeting a specific point guard next summer as evidenced by their moves so far. It's obvious that our point guards are playing worse than they expected. At what point do you abandon your long term plan to for short term gains? Or do you just try to push through it? I wouldn’t wait to sign Rozier. If you can make a move soon, do it. I’m watching the Washington situation. If Wall becomes available? Only problem is he’s in the same conference. Teams generally don’t trade within the same conferences. Generally...

Mauro Pedrosa 1,031 Report post Posted November 2, 2018 I'm looking at that Wall contract and his injury history and I think I'd rather take Rozier or Tyus for much cheaper. Phoenix will probably get one and we'll get the other (if we're smart) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean you question Wall’s contract and injuries but you don’t even question Rozier and his possible big pay day based on a playoff series? You don’t question Tyus’s role as more than likely being a career 6th or 7th man at best? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, he’s also in our division which makes it even less likely, but not impossible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But people love offense so I guess they’ll love watching. So, it seems to be mostly a pace based thing. The per-possession defense is basically just as good as it was last year based upon EFG% and TS% (52.1% EFG both this year and last year, 55.6% TS% last year vs 55.8% TS% this year.), but teams are averaging 3 more possessions per game. Average points per game is up 6 points per game vs. last year. If you look further back, teams have been becoming more efficient, however, pace has also been increasing to where teams are averaging almost 10 more possessions per game more than they were 10 years ago.

I'd just rather take the Rozier/Tyus risk I wouldn't be mad if we traded our vets for Wall, though. At least we'd be trying something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell, with the gunslinger attitude Hammond and Weltman were supposed to have compared to how stagnant they’ve been with us, I’d settle for just one of the three being gone.
