has any NBA ever tried the 'fat goalie' theory of defense - get somebody who is literally so fat that guards would get called for charges any time they tried to make a layup

c'mon this is def worth a try

btw I'm not saying KG is a bad rim protector, but in the scheme of his herculean defensive gifts, it's the least.
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 11 December 2011 16:53 (twelve years ago) link
well maybe hes better at defending point guards in the backcourt, but that skill just isnt that valuable is the thing, considering the relative value of the defensive things he does guarding the rim is his most important defensive contribution

there's no way he's the second best at it over the last decade though, that's crazy
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 11 December 2011 17:07 (twelve years ago) link
with the twolves he wasn't even as good at it as Nesterovic.

This is all so great. They can cancel the season and just keep trading star players, then canceling the trades, and concocting new trades, round-the-clock.

Come Xmas day I won't have the slightest idea who plays for which team beyond Dirk being on the Mavs.

not sure what thats gonna do for his game tho, his best skill was being able to lean on dwight howard
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 11 December 2011 18:56 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i had the same thought
― k3vin k., Sunday, 11 December 2011 18:57 (twelve years ago) link
might improve his overall durability?
― am0n shumpert (dayo), Sunday, 11 December 2011 18:59 (twelve years ago) link

pacers signed david west 2 years 20 million. seems like a decent deal
― k3vin k., Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:19 (twelve years ago) link
houston close to signing marc gasol for max/contract via sign-and-trade with memphis.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:22 (twelve years ago) link
that's a good deal for the pacers
O_O @ marc
― v-shasty, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:22 (twelve years ago) link
pretty sad about that, was loving that memphis team
yeah, they're totally blown-up now.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:23 (twelve years ago) link
yeah why are all the fun teams getting blown up

i think everyone in the world collectively decided that it made no sense
― v-shasty, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:32 (twelve years ago) link
I wonder what houston is giving up, if anything? anyway, great deal for them.
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:41 (twelve years ago) link
I guess the plan all along was a gasol brothers tandem, that would have been so fun.
gasol/scola/valuncinas is a hilarious/great frontcourt
― v-shasty, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:42 (twelve years ago) link
you mean motiejunas?
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:42 (twelve years ago) link
yeah
i mean what's the difference, but yeah
― v-shasty, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:43 (twelve years ago) link
would gasol/scola be the first all-international frontcourt in the league?
― am0n shumpert (dayo), Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:43 (twelve years ago) link
did you get to see his awesome post-draft press conference where he basically challenged Dwight Howard to try to block him?
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:43 (twelve years ago) link
lol i don't recall

There's a huge difference! Valanciunas is gritty and works his butt off, Motiejunas is a pretty boy with skillz.
