Ee season tho...he has entered the league of legends of the game...there will never be another player like him...he is averaging 31.7 pts, 10.9 assists, 10.6 rebounds per game. Ninna night, half time ki triple double esesadu. Latest CBA lo owners lo last minute twist...owners gifted OKC the ability to sign Westbrook to an extension (and Harden for Rockets)..they will be the first player to sign extensions in back to back seasons. Inka he will end his career with OKC anukunta unless they decide to trade him. The National Basketball Associationâs new Collective Bargaining Agreement includes a special provision that grandfathers Houstonâs James Harden and Oklahoma Cityâs Russell Westbrook into the windfall of super-max contract extensions available to several star players this summer, league sources told The Vertical. This summer, Westbrook could sign a five-year, $219 million contract extension that would begin in the 2018-19 season. Heâll make $28.5 million in 2017-18. Harden could sign for an additional four years and $171 million starting in 2019 â on top of the $58.7 million owed to him in the next two years of his current contract. | ||

Another way to think about this is...Lebron vacche daaka Cavs never came close to 40 wins....it will be interesting to see if he will be able to do that now...if he is the only star on a team. Other names on the list are expected to do that...Anthony David already got Pelicans to a 45 win season...KAT and Porzi are expected to do it soon...may be even this season. | ||

few days back..Ban Alamar: ESPN's Director of Analytics wrote a very good article on Kyrie. He started really well but has not improved at the same rate as the true superstar PGs. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18332182/kyrie-irving-goo d-not-keeping-pace-nba-elite-guards When Kyrie Irving reached the NBA with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2011, he was quickly and legitimately heralded as one of the best young point guards in the game, with the expectation that he would become one of the best players in the league. As a 19- and 20-year old, he was scoring more efficiently and passing better than young point guards typically have the right to score and pass. By the age of 20, his numbers were crushing those of Chris Paul, Russell Westbrook, John Wall, and James Harden at the same stage. A funny thing happened on the way to Irving's superstardom, however -- he did not really get much better. All of the aforementioned names got significantly better after their age-20 seasons. With the exception of Wall, all have been legitimate MVP candidates. Irving, meanwhile, remains a really good but not truly elite player. To be fair to Irving, this is a really high standard to hold him to. The argument here isn't about whether Irving is really good -- he clearly is. Instead, the argument is that he has not lived up to the potential that he displayed during his first two years in the league. He is not one of the top five players in the league, and is honestly not close. | ||

Almost 1 feet difference in height makes a lot of difference, they can defend at a much higher level. Even in scoring, they will be unstoppable. | ||

So maybe there are three versions of an NBA unicorn: the one we had/havenât seen before but might be replicable (the traditional unicorn), the one weâll probably never see again (the tweener unicorn), and the one weâll definitely never see again (the true unicorn). Those lists look like this: Traditional unicorns: Russell, Wilt, Thompson, Dominique, Ralph Sampson, Pippen, Spud Webb, Shaq, C-Webb, Penny, Sheed, T-Mac, Dirk, Yao, and young Blake. Tweener unicorns: Jordan, Iverson, LeBron, Curry, and Harden. (Quick explanation: Kobeâs relatively creepy Jordan impersonation opened the door for another MJ someday ⦠I could imagine another 5-foot-11 scoring prodigy like Iverson who doubles as the leagueâs toughest m.f.âer ⦠I could imagine another 6-foot-8 super-athlete like LeBron who never gets tired and plays basketball like heâs the queen on a chessboard ⦠I could imagine another playmaking magician like Curry with 30-foot range ⦠and I could imagine seeing the Sloan Conference lab create another lefty slash-and-kick playmaker like Harden who scores only on 3s, layups and free throws. But I wouldnât wager on any of those things happening again. Would you?) True unicorns: Kareem (impossibly coordinated/durable + the unicornish sky hook); Earl the Pearl (unlike ⦠anything); Pistol Pete (same); Doctor J (mutant hands and moved like a ballerina); Adrian Dantley (a 6-foot-3 herky-jerky post-up specialist?); Gervin (unreplicable isnât a word, but that was the Iceman); Bird (ditto); Magic (6-foot-9 point guard/genius/leader/never-happening-again); McHale (hold this thought); Hakeem (his backstory and how it helped his hoops game simply cannot be re-created); Barkley; Manute Bol (read page 340 of my paperback); Dennis Rodman (canât be replicatedâââand maybe the world is safer that way); Durant (McAdoo crossed with Gervin crossed with Spider-Man crossed with Plastic Man with 25-foot range???); and Westbrook (part point guard, part striker, part running back, part Terminator). That brings us to our current under-25 unicorn candidates: Anthony Davis, Karl-Anthony Towns, Kristaps Porzingis, Joel Embiid and Giannis Antempokonokokoakkokookookoko (from now on, Giannis). | ||

Bill Simmons finally does what he is best at...taking the current generation throgugh the history of the game....very well written Battle of the Unicorns Kristaps Porzingis, Joel Embiid, and Giannis Antetokounmpo are dominant, jaw-dropping, once-in-a-generation talentsâââand theyâre still under 23. But whoâs the most precious unicorn in the NBA? NBA fans will remember six things about 2016: Golden Stateâs quest for 73 wins, LeBronâs Cavs channeling the 2004 Red Sox, The Block, Durant going Hollywood Hogan on Westbrook, every decent free agent suddenly being worth $15 million to $20 million a year even with names like âIan Mahinmiâ and âAllen Crabbe,â and finally, unicorns. To be fair, the league has been churning out unicorns since Russell and Wilt. Isnât that one of the single best things about following basketball? When someone shows up and you say to yourself, âWow, Iâve never seen THATâ? A great example: In 1984, Charles Barkley showed up in Philly looking like Ron Jaworskiâs new right tackle, when he was really a 6-foot-4 runaway train who pounded the glass like he was using a trampoline. Nobody took a charge from Barkley in those days; you were better off hopping in front of a Greyhound. We never called him a âunicorn.â We just knew we hadnât seen anything like him before. | ||

eppatinundo oka thread eddamani forgeting...sudden ga oka 4-5 unicorns vacchesaru NBA loki...Bill Simmons finally wrote an article in his forgotten site Ringer. https://theringer.com/battle-of-the-nba-unicorns-bdf6c4a7b33 1#.89deu7vhk Unicorn definition IMO...shoot like an SG with 3 pt range, handle the ball like a PG and defend the rim like a Center....basically 7 foot shot blockers with guard skills. All of a sudden Tim Duncan, Pau Gasol and Dirk ni mixie lo esinattu......KAT, Porzingod, Embiid, Anthony Davis and Greek Freak (he grow several inches in height after entering the NBA). } |
