NBA Tonight

[Billo_Really]

i was being sarcastic. He did make an all star team once in the ABA.

Only because he deflated the balls at half-time.

Wait a second, what thread am I in?

 

[Billo_Really]

I read his book in my junior year of highschool and thats what turned me into a two way player. I had previously focused only on offense but I picked up some good tips and a pride in defense from Clyde.

I'm still pissed off over the '70 Finals.

I wasnt even cognizant yet..

Dellavedova if he was listed as a PG he would rank 32nd, on the list.

Not sure if I buy the into many of those stats and how accurate they are.

Lillard is a good defender when Wes Mathews is on the floor, he isn't as effective when Mathews isn't. There are some players that make others a lot better. LeBron and Magic have the ability to make others better. Billups was another player that could do that.

Best defensive guard in the history of the NBA, was Walt Frazier.

I like Clyde however my pick for best defensive PG all time is Gary Payton.

Even over Dennis Johnson? Or Jerry Sloan?

I wasnt even born.

I was 13 and had been a Laker fan for 5 years.

You should thank me.

 

[Billo_Really]

My pick for 2nd best defensive guard of all time is Michael Cooper.

Al Attles was pretty good too.

I thought you had typed 60 instead of 70. I was just born.

Yeah. Payton, Frazier, DJ, Slater Martin and then Norman Van Lier.

I still have to go with the Cavs tonight since the Warriors are one-dimensional on offense

They need to make three's to score pts
They need to be on the fast break to score pts

I never see the warriors come down and set be patience and set up a offensive plan. They can only score from the outside

Predictable but hard to stop.

They won 67 regular and 14 playoff wins, hard to argue with the Warrior's success.

Defensive rating stats are highly irregular and only meant to be a barometer. They're ballpark, imo though. Dellavedova is:

1. Has picked up the intensity.
2. Refs are allowing him to get away with some stuff.
3. Curry has went cold.

Lillard's just not a good defender. He's about as bad as Rondo. But yes, a good backcourt mate can mask a lot of defensive deficiencies. Rondo didn't look so bad til he went from Avery Bradley to Monta Ellis.

You forgot Rondo played without Avery when they won it all.

 

[TheGreatGatsby]

If you think Lillard is a defensive liability you are more retarded than Rocko. Lillard is one of the best defensive guards in the league.

Idiot fanboy strikes again!

Is James Harden one of the best defensive guards in the league too?

Son, don't tell me what I forget. I know way more about the game than you'll ever know. No, Rondo didnt play with Avery then. Rather he played with pre-knee injury KG, who probably had the best perimeter defensive season of any big in the history of the NBA in 08 if not the best season by a defensive anchor period.
