    Anyone see James Harden's newest instagram post? They're saying he was hacked:

          Shumpert gets legitimate steals.No deflections, just picking someone's pockets. His defensive potential is there.

          To put Shumpert in the same sentence as Melo is an insult to his effort on defense.

            Thank you.

            And people wanted to give him up in the Nash deal. Crazy.

            He played one, injury-riddled season.

            His upside is crazy. That Wade sequence shows alot.

            I don't know what else he needs to see..

              Shump has a lot of potential as a defender, but he wasn't a great defender last year. He was pretty average.

                  No, but you implied he was Melo bad. Which he's not.

                        I disagree, I think Shumpert is a great defender when he's guarding his position. I think he doesn't look good when he's guarding other position like forwards for example

                          He never implied that. He said Jeffries was not a great perimeter defender and then listed other guys that he didn't think was great. He didn't say Shump was as bad as Melo. He just said he doesn't think he is a great lockdown defender.

                          He also said that steals don't make somebody a great defender. Which is true because some guys gamble in passing lanes too much. Like being able to block shots doesn't mean you are a great defender. Some shot blockers are great shot blockers when providing help defense. But when they have to guard someone on the post they can easily fall for shot fakes, etc. His point was that stats like steals or blocks are not always an indication of a good defender.

                            About the point about super teams before.

                            In the 1980s:
                            5 teams out of 25 made the NBA Finals, 20%
                            4 teams won championships, 16%

                            1990s:
                            11 teams out of 29 made the NBA Finals. 37.9%
                            4 teams won championships, 13.8%

                            2000s:
                            11 teams out of 30 made the NBA Finals. 36.7%
                            5 teams won championships, 16.7%

                            So far in the 10s:
                            We have had 5 teams make the NBA Finals and 3 different champions with 7 seasons left in the decade.

                            As of the Heatles era, we will never again see 11 different teams get to the Finals in a 10 year span.

                                I'm happy with the Camby signing. Hopefully he stays healthy.

                                Shumpert is a great perimeter defender, I hope he comes back strong so you guys can see for yourselves.
