Kendrick Perkins made more shots on 5 FGA than Davis on 20 FGA

[JerrySeinfeld]

Keep shooting them long range shots bigman! :roll:

Gentry gonna ruin this guys chance at surpassing KD anytime soon

[warriorfan]

one of the most athletic 6'11'' players we have seen in awhile

lets have him launch threes

:lol

[iTare]

:oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:

[AnaheimLakers24]

Hes an awful coach.

[Lebron23]

Davis have zero range. He needs to be a primary low post scorer.

[Bosnian Sajo]

You don't see George Karl forcing DMC to shoot 3s, do you? Take note, Gentry...or else you will stunt the growth of the NBA's next great big man.

[sportjames23]

They fired Monty for this shit? :oldlol:

[T_L_P]

I still don't like how reliant he is on teammates to create shots for him (his Ast'd% last year was mind-boggling high when you look at who he's playing with), but he shouldn't be shooting 3s, and that's on Gentry.

[JerrySeinfeld]

They fired Monty for this shit? :oldlol:

Gentry probably told him to go watch tape of Channing Frye in his Suns days and mold his game after that :roll:

All but one of his 20 shot attempts tonight were mid-range jumpers or three-pointers; only three of them materialized. :facepalm

Alvin Gentry's hotseat will need to warm up if he keeps rigidizing this perimeter-oriented approach for the Pelicans' best player, but Davis can't be absolved, either; as the team-leader and an emergent BITW-caliber player, he also needs to know when to supersede his coach and change his playstyle when it's inauspicious to the team.

[aj1987]

If only we could have Pat, Chuck, Sloan, etc.. Come back and coach some of these teams.

[WayOfWade]

Give it time guys; yeah it didn't and won't work, but give it time

[dubeta]

Gentry turning players into spot-up shooters :lol :lol

[Young X]

All but one of his 20 shot attempts tonight were mid-range jumpers or three-pointers; only three of them materialized. :facepalmThat's ridiculous.

He needs to get his ass down low (pause).

He won't reach his full potential unless he incorporates more of that into his game. F*ck these long jumpers.

The team that just won 67 games and a title played D'Antoni ball on offense.

It's only ever worked when you have one of the GOAT shooters. Every other team, it's been awful.

Most of the best offenses in today's NBA play at a fast pace and emphasize spacing.

That doesn't mean it's a winning strategy.

[Nick Young]

It's official, Perkins>Davis, just close this thread:bowdown:

[Nick Young]

Gentry turning players into spot-up shooters :lol :lol
Gentry turning him in to KD:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

[CarlosBoozer]

KD without the range :bowdown:

[WorldWarriors]

That really bugs me. AD looked so frustrated tonight. They are ruining him. He is not Dirk. Let him play his game.

[bigkingsfan]

He's back

Nah he needa be in the high/midpost hes too weak to be bangin down low

[TrueBlue89]

Do people actually watch games or just stat sheets? Davis' midrange game is damn near elite. He just had an awful game that's it. Can't believe people are already blaming Gentry.

[EllisGW]

Did you really make a post about one game

[ralph_i_el]

Lol Perkins saved up an entire offseason's worth of energy and used it in this first game. Beastly :bowdown: looked like he was hurting running up and down the court though

[Derka]

Pretty stupid to have him taking those shots. He needs to be in the post.

[Genaro]

ISH's overreaction. How typical. Just a bad game, move on.

[90sgoat]

It's time Silver just puts a rule saying 'No Bigmen', just make a rule like in the Philippines saying no players above 2 meters, maybe in the US it could be 2.05 cm. That way the NBA can finally have its all out midget chucking league.

[bobopenguin]

so i guess most of u guy would build ur franchise around kendrick perkins.
pls go ahead, i will keep scrub anthony davis.

[Wally450]

Did you really make a post about one game

Its ISH, where the Cavs will go 0-82 and Davis is a scrub now.

[Lebronxrings]

so i guess most of u guy would build ur franchise around kendrick perkins.
pls go ahead, i will keep scrub anthony davis.
least perkins has won a playoff game

[chips93]

+1. AD was shooting the same shots last year and people were sucking his dick. He just had an off night. I swear ISH is the epitome of knee-jerk idiocy


All but one of his 20 shot attempts tonight were mid-range jumpers or three-pointers; only three of them materialized. :facepalm


he needs to be shooting way more than one shot at the rim. if he wants to be as effective as he was last year.

they need holiday back asap

No players above 1 inch!

exciting!

[WorldWarriors]

I watched the game. He looked uncomfortable taking those long range shots. We'll see how it goes. I'm sure most people are not being serious about Perkins.:oldlol:

[Funktion]

Draymond was playing soft on Perk letting him score and was trying to stay in Davis's face

[KG215]

Its ISH, where the Cavs will go 0-82 and Davis is a scrub now.
Don't forget that after last night Curry is now better than pretty much every NBA player ever not named Michael Jordan.

[aj1987]

Don't forget that after last night Curry is now better than pretty much every NBA player ever not named Michael Jordan.
:wtf:

Curry > MJ as an offensive player. The defensive attention that he draws is significantly more. Shooting is also the most important part of basketball and Curry is a much better shooter; ergo, he's a much better player than Jordan. Defense doesn't matter. Any scrub with athleticism can play defense and the difference in offense doesn't make up for it.

tl;dr - Curry >> MJ
