Bradley - Danny - LeBron - AD - McGee

That's a good lineup. Hope to see McGee replaced with Kuzma (still injured though... of course with our luck), Dudley or even Caruso at times.

Klay is out. I won't judge them until he's back. But I don't know if he will be.

Anthony Davis though. Fucking unreal player.

Getting a stop against us this year and having to battle McGee and AD on the boards. Demoralising to say the least

Vogel already staggering the minutes of our two best players

To be honest it was just a half, but that half was enough :coffee:

This is a very traditional corner lift by Zion out of the PnR. Instead of spotting up for a 3 like most, he curls right to the hoop. Love the pin down by the roll man, too! Any doubters out there should pull a Homer Simpson into the hedges. pic.twitter.com/sm89UYDgjx

We're going to see this a lot this year, once Zion receives the ball on the curl coming downhill it's over lmao.

bad defense imo, defender should have gone with him

"It's bad defense. Defender should be able to go toe-to-toe with the most physically gifted player in more than a decade"

Agreed

by El Gunner Tue Oct 08, 2019 8:22 am

I'm not saying he should go all the way and get dunked on (he probably still should), but at least make the run to the elbow with him and take away a few split seconds from the play by making him think if he really wants to continue to the rim... or give your help-defense chance to pack in front of the rim. Which of course could lead to Zion easily kicking it out/dropping it off to an open teammate. But at least that gives the play many more potential outcomes instead of an easy drive to the rim.

Zion will gets loads of those in the season probably yes, but if New Orleans ever make the playoffs in the next couple of years he will face much sterner defense.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Oct 08, 2019 8:35 am

You do realise that Zion receiving the ball downhill (especially from the position in the clip)is close to impossible to stop right?

The defense mistake is blowing it up before he gets there, but once he receives the ball in that position while running into it it's over.

by El Gunner Tue Oct 08, 2019 8:49 am

okay sorry just watched again and i didn't realise #8 blue setting the off-ball screen on #20 white. He probably should have been tighter to Zion's run in the first place, but it still wouldn't have worked out for him if #8 sets the screen properly

by Freeza Tue Oct 08, 2019 8:57 am

Are we going to the playoffs this year, Mole?

I see us meeting Lakers in the first round.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Oct 08, 2019 9:20 am

That depends on whether you think we're better than Spurs or not hmm

Other 7 spots are pretty much locked in imo.

Definitely. Depends on how good Dejounte is after his injury.

Derozan is trash and Aldridge is the only thing I'd worry about, since he can't be stopped by anyone in the league except himself and AD.

Ingram is an all star this year imo and the young 3 fit so fucking well together. JJ Redick will be important. Have to hope he's not impossible to play because of his defense, but I think the team is a perfect fit for him because Lonzo, BI and Zion all have All-Defense potential.

Can see them having a worse version of the 2011 OKC kind of season.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Oct 08, 2019 2:13 pm

I think the biggest key for us this season if we're to make the playoffs is how quickly the team defence comes together.

The biggest thing for a young team to get right is the communication on rotations etc etc, if we can get that right early we have a chance.
