[5th Letter]

What is Sabonis going to be doing while Claxton is rolling to the basket and posting up?

What is Claxton going to be doing while the offense is running through Sabonis?

How Fox going to get into the paint?

How does Minnesota’s offense operates with Gobert and Kat (when he was healthy) and how was Edwards still able to get to the paint?

Can Claxton or Sabonis shoot 41% from 3 on 5 plus attempts per game like Towns?

Sabonis shot 37.1% from 3 this year which is still good, and his numbers are steadily improving.

What else you got

The league is steadily reverting back to bigger front courts again, now that the Warriors run is over.

I knew you were going to say this lol


Sabonis a 33% career 3pt shooter who has never averaged 1 made three during his career

He shot 37 % on 1.1 attempt per game and 0.4 made threes per game

On top of not having the volume he has a very slow release from 3 also

Towns is a 4 at this point.....Claxton, Gobert and Sabonis are all non floor spacing 5s

Minnesota was 17th in offense this season too btw

So why cant Sabonis increase his attempts from 3? He clearly is more than capable of making them?

Just that easy huh lol?

let me ask you this have you ever watch Sabonis actually shoot the ball? He might have the slowest release in the league


You think he would shoot 37% from 3 one more than 1 attempt if teams actually defended him out there?

He’ll be fine man lol. And I think you’re overstating his release

 

[Suckio Andretti]

@southsil4lil is experiencing why I always go back and forth with 5th letter lol

It’s fun

 

[5th Letter]

I want the Nets to keep Claxton, I’d like to see a full season of Clax and Clowney playing together.

I'm trying tell you fam, Sabonis is not some stretch five and nothing about him fits the profile of someone who will turn into that

OKC thought this, Orlando thought this, Indy thought this and they all finally realized he's not


Have to agree to disagree though

 

[Ironman]

Lmaooo. I agree as a selfish Knicks fan.

My question is more so, is Brunson deserving

Deserving absolutely but fuck that lol

[Freeman]

Is this accurate

Take out Lakers put in Clippers, heat, philly.
