KZ is still young and has a lot he can improve on.  But even in this down-and-up year, KZ is 13th in Defensive Real +/-.  Of the 12 guys above him, only 4 have a higher Offensive Real +/- rating: Giannis, LeBJ, Kawhi, Jokic.

http://www.espn.com/nba/statistics/rpm/_/sort/DRPM

Extend down to the Top 30 in DRPM, only adds Chris Paul with a better ORPM.  With Jimmy Butler with the same O rating.

Which corroborates my assertion the other day that KZ is a Top 10 2-way player.  Tatum close but below KZ on both metrics.

Others: Siakim and Anthony Davis.  Lowry, Embiid.

Best 2-way players:
1. Giannis
2. LeBJ
3. Kawhi
4. Anthony Davis
5. Butler
6.  KZ
7. Tatum
8. Middleton
9. Chris Paul
10. Siakim
11. Lowry
12. Embiid
13. Covington
14. Simmons
15. Jaylen

Something like that.

Thoughts on some players:
1.  Never seen a player like Randle...goes to the Basket, gets within a few feet and consistently  misses the shot.
2.  Ntilikina... with right coaching will be very good
3.  Knox...terrible pick.  Will be out of the league shortly
4.  Barrett...Still don't know.  Probably will be a utility player somewhere but definitely not worth the pick we used.  I think Calipari was wrong on his upside.
5. Robinson...will be great. 
6.  Payton...serviceable but not an elite PG to build around.  Doesn't have the mindset to be clutch.
7.  Portis...definitely a keeper.  Can help any team.
8.  Gibson...doesn't hurt the team.
9.  Rest to the roster...bla

Muddy did that for us.
Antoine Walker was masterful at driving, spinning, and tossing the ball at the rim.

Maybe Jerry will give us some stats to back that up.

And I see he provides the obligatory Frank post after a positive game.  Yeah maybe 4th or 5th coach is the ticket.

In what quadrant of the known universe are the Hawks bailing on Trae.

Didn't realize you got high.  Happy you have access to some good ganja. 

Trae is a generational talent.

Main thing I see here is - despite his positive line - Frank cant run a team.

 That's what you saw ? I saw the ball bouncing off Julius ass again and again. Everybody sees what they want to see!

AND THE WEINER IS....

Kiid.

Dear tube steak.

Davis played SEVEN seasons for the Pelicans before he leveraged a trade.  And was on the tail end of his first big extension.

Trae is completing his second season on his rookie deal.

Too subtle a distinction?

My bad.

Someone tell BO to be a great 2-way player you need to, you know, play.

Holy fucking shit. Game. World. Game.

I love them both as much as they both make me worry.

Be safe one and all & try to be smart about it.
