Charlotte Hornets @ Miami Heat
Game 5 Official Discussion
Series tied 2-2
8:00 EST PM on TNT, SUN

so who wins tonight?
is Batum back?

Reffing was so disgusting in Charlotte and they still almost lost. No way the Heat drops this series.

Look for Whiteside to play like he's angry with his slavemasters.

His numbers are bad defending in the post full stop. Also he's always out of position in pick and roll coverage.
>>
>>67153553
Is it popular to get drunk for just about every event in Germany? It's that way in the United States, but for the longest time the only easily accessible beer in most places was mass-produced shit which also happened to be pretty inexpensive. Better beer is becoming a lot more popular but young college-aged crowds still consume a large amount of light beer.

His post numbers aren't great, but he's a dominant rebounder which means no second-chance opportunities, deters opponents even attempting shots at the rim with his league-best shot-blocking, has the athleticism to close out quickly on shooters, and had some of the best all-around defensive metrics in the NBA from late December on, including in the pick and roll.

>>67153876
He chases blocks far less as of late, and chasing blocks isn't necessarily bad if you can recover, which he does more often than not. That commitment to blocks is also necessitated quite often by the positioning of their guards. If it were hurting their team, their defensive metrics wouldn't be better with him on the floor.

>He's always hanging way back on a Kemba pick and roll.
He hangs back to cut off driving lanes, prevent switches from being forced and avoid fouls, which is almost always the best decision a big can make. I wouldn't be surprised if that were Spoelstra's intention. They've experimented over the season with various degrees of aggressiveness in their pick and roll D and found that, while he was far too hesitant to step out early in the year, they can't run something like they did with Bosh.

It's confirmation bias. Of course he makes some mistakes, but he does great on the vast majority of his defensive possessions. The team looks better with him on D and it's reflected by the numbers.

I vehemently disagree that the team looks better with Whiteside defensively. He does some good things, but does a lot of bad things too. It's that inconsistency which makes me hesitant to call him an elite defender. I can go back and forth with you but i'm going to watch the game.

Make up your mind whether you want to discuss this or not. Regardless, you're doing exactly what I said you were. Cherrypicking possessions that confirm your bias.

>How is it cherrypicking? It's a consistent problem.
You cherrypicked a single transition play where he got surprised by his man, who normally comes up slowly, sprinting back and hitting a shot over his PF. It happens to everyone and is not a consistent problem with Whiteside.

>You could easily argue he didn't contest it effectively, kept his hands down and got lucky.
You don't need to have your hands up to contest a shot. He prevented the drive and made his man take a shot with limited space. Then like two possessions later he kept pace with Lin en route to the rim, prevented him from slipping around a la Nash, and forced a dump-off. Next possession, forces the ball out of bounds off Hawes on a drive. Next possession, shows on the pick and roll (again, what you say he doesn't do) to cut off a drive by Kemba, then on the same possession contests Lin (who gets bailed out by a foul on another Heat player). Two plays later, back up the perimeter defender to contest Kemba in the pick and roll, Heat get possession. Next play, forces Al into a bad miss off a post-up. Next play, actually does make a big mistake, but does again what you say he doesn't do and comes up to set a hard trap on Lin out of the pick and roll.

All in all, he's doing great on the vast majority of possessions.

And yet he's 7th in the NBA in DBPM, anchors the second-best paint defense in the NBA by FG%, and leads the league in DRTG, with his metrics only improving as the season goes on. Being good in one defensive metric doesn't necessarily mean anything, but elite production pretty much across the board in them means you're doing something right.

> It could have easily been an adjustment made by Spo to trap.

In which case it would be a decision by Spo not to trap in previous games. From the December 22nd game against Detroit on, Whiteside has not had meaningful issues with showing on the pick and roll. It's been surprisingly well-documented. If the team decides to do something different, that isn't his fault.

And I just went back to watch that play you mentioned >>67154320 . No idea how you could possibly thing that's on Whiteside. He was defending Hawes behind the arc while Lin was down in the low post. Dragic gets caught completely out of position and Wade doesn't come over to contest. Whiteside has zero culpability.

IT is AI on sale at Macy's.

Kemba is AI at a yard sale.

I don't know what Charlotte can do, they're firmly locked in the middle zone where they're good enough to be playoffs, but not good enough to win it all.

They should try and do the Boston/Pistons rebuild and try to amass legit players, since they ain't gettin a superstar. Need to dump Kemba or convince him that he's the perfect 6th man.

You ain't gonna win with Kemba/IT as your #1 guy.
>>
>>67155024
But Jeremy Lin is already the perfect 6th man. They're fucked because they had high draft picks and they got stuck with MKG and Kaminsky instead of potential stars.

LEAVE KAMINSKY ALONE
>>
>>67155086

Charlotte can't justify keeping Lin for Kemba. Also Lin is about to get paid, and the Hornets can't afford him.

MKG and Kaminsky are two ideal role players, but yeah, they fucked.

The good thing is that MKG is young as fuck, so there's some potential there. MKG is actually younger than Kaminsky, lol. That fuckin pick made no sense, why pick Kaminsky?

What do you think MKG and Kaminsky ceilings/floors are? Floor I'd say MKG is Tony Allen and Frank is Spencer Hawes, ceilings I have no idea.

Watch him play instead of going through (mostly) meaningless stats (advanced defensive statistics are usually very shallow)

Eye-test is still the best way to evaluate a player on D and you can see he has problems on defense and no stat will make them disappear

Also, his team's DRtg is about the same with and without him

He's obviously a good defender but very flawed

btw he's 34th in FG% when guarding in the restricted area

well, duh. any poor ass immigrant population who recently escaped their poor ass country via rafts and boats sure won't spend their ducats on Heat games. however, there are plenty of yuppie Cubans around Westchester, Midtown, Downtown, South Miami, and Edgewater, mate, not to mention Hialeah.

9'5" standing reach for Whiteside.
ridiculous.
Theres been a lot of talk this season that Portland will go hard to bring him here. His age fits the timeline and he fills the rim protector need. The last few games Plumdog Millionaire has been showing a ton of growth though, pretty much since Myers went out with injury.

Will Whiteside get max-money?

well ain't that funny

The heat are about the same defensively with whiteside off the floor and their rebounding actually gets better

>inb4 germany says on/off numbers are shit
>>
>>67155316

MKG needs to fucking play. He was 13/6/5 this season while he played as a 22 year old, that's pretty fuckin legit. He's already better than Tony Allen. If he can keep his ass on the floor and keep improving his offense, he can be a 15 PPG guy while playing elite defense, easy. That's his floor. Ceiling depends 100% on whether or not he learns to shoot 3 pointers.

Frank IMO is closer to his ceiling, which is pretty sad, but that's what you get when you pick older guys. His defense isn't going to get better. At best he learns to shoot and becomes a shitty version of Ryan Anderson.

theres a reason whiteside was benched and the heat started doing better

guy is one of those empty stat guys who slacks on defense so he can get blocks from behind to pad his stats

feel bad for anyone who overpays him tbqh

>>67155552
the rebounding is worse, or am I just losing it?
