3/25 - 3/31 Games Discussion Thread

Re: 3/25 - 3/31 Games Discussion Thread

By under, do you mean in the top 10 or out of it. Seems like he's under the radar because there are just so many great point guards right now, even with Rondo and Rose seemingly wiped out by injury. I think it's super debatable where he ranks, but again I think he's right in the middle when it's all said and done.

Top 10:
Lawson, Lowry, Conley, Lilliard, Wall, Curry, Irving, Westbrook, Parker and Paul

Next tier:
Deron Williams, Teague, Kemba Walker, Rubio, Isaiah Thomas, Calderon, Bledsoe, Holiday

And again, that's with Rose, Rondo out and if you don't consider Dragic a point guard, which apparently you do.

He's over 10 a game this year, and had multiple games up around 19.. He's primarily a jump shooter, you cannot honestly tell me that those bigger guys don't draw more contact attacking the rim than he does? He's rewarded because he makes nearly every possession look like a foul, he's the exact same as the Harden situation.

People talk about guys like CP3, and LeBron flopping, those two are far worse.. CP3 just flops to flop, LeBron over exaggerates contact, but Durant and Harden make refs believe there is contact constantly even when their isn't.

It's not anything necessarily negative to Durant, I'd do the same thing if I continually got away with it. It's more a complaint at the refs, game after game of seeing it happen you'd think they would eventually adjust.. This is something that's continued since the second week of the season.

Easy to score 25+ every night when you get at least 8 points handed to you by the refs.

I'd like to see a comparison for his FTA's while shooting that many mid range shots. Has to be up there historically.

Re: 3/25 - 3/31 Games Discussion Thread

Pretty clear that both Harden and KD get too many calls. I don't think anyone can really disagree with that. A lot of phantom calls and light fouls called for these two. The thing that bothers me is that they're so skilled offensively, they don't need all these calls. Also, like someone said I'm disappointed in the refs for continuing to reward them.

The Knicks man.. How do you play this bad immediately coming off a good win streak.

Re: 3/25 - 3/31 Games Discussion Thread

I feel like the Lakers bench has about as many points as the Knicks entire team.

Re: 3/25 - 3/31 Games Discussion Thread

How the hell do you give up 51 points in ONE damn quarter to a team like that?!? That's impossible even if you aren't trying. My goodness....

NY is puuuhthetic!!!


There is no reason for Phil to evaluate, everybody on this team besides Melo should be gone this offseason.

Re: 3/25 - 3/31 Games Discussion Thread

51 points LOL. Seems legit.

Is that some sort of record?

Hardaway Jr. is a keeper. Chandler is also a piece if a core is in place. Everyone else can kick rocks. They have some big money guys still under contract though.

Re: 3/25 - 3/31 Games Discussion Thread

Yeah Hardaway is a keeper and hasn't been contaminated yet with that lower mentality but other than that the rest need to go. Chandler is past his prime and they could honestly get by without him

He gets the superstar treatment from the Refs quite often...but you're making it sound like he can't get 25 points easy with the Ref's help though lol

I mean out of it. And I would agree with your rankings mostly, although I think Calderon is on the higher end of that list, I'd place him ahead of Teague, Rubio and Holiday at least.

Ehh I don't know about all that. Also Deron Williams isn't in the top 10 point guards? The hell?

I don't think so, not anymore. If I had to rank all the starters right this second I'd probably come up with something like:

1. CP3
2. Curry
3. Parker
4. Wall
5. Westbrook
6. Rondo
7. Irving
8. Lilliard
9. Dragic
10. Conley
11. Lowry
12. Lawson
13. Williams
14. Bledsoe
15. Calderon
16. Holliday
17. Thomas
18. Walker
19. Teague
20. Rubio

So I guess you're right ex, right there in the middle.
