• Holiday checked in right behind Richardson on that blocked shots list, and wormed his way inside jerseys at three positions for a thin team that needed every bit of his positional versatility. He was often the Pelicans' best option against George/Durant types

Pretty sure Lowe had healthy Pels finishing 12th in the West.
Idiot.
Idiot.

Also, Embiid is going to bitch so hard if AD makes first team at C.

Paul over Jrue is pretty comical (for defense)

If Cousins wouldn’t have got hurt Davis and Cousins would be 1st team. He needs to quit his bitching.
Jrue should have been first team on defense.

Honestly it should go
1st team
AD, Lebron, embiid
2nd team
Durant, giannis, jokic/gobert
3rd team
Butler, LMA, jokic/gobert
Simmons has been phenomenal, but gobert needs some love.

Pretty cool we have two All NBA MVP candidates playing each other in the first round.

He has some weird thing about putting a pure point on the first team. So Jrue wasn’t eligible (in his mind) for that spot. For some reason he has no issue using two combo guards on the 2nd team.

Yea, that was stupid. It's not like Jrue is a pure shooting guard either. He's 16th in the league in assists ffs.
ETA: I could understand if he said he couldn't put two Pelican players on the 1st team all defense because their team defense wasn't good enough to justify that, but his excuse was pretty lame.

Is Jrue good at defense? I've watched only a few Pelicans games, a couple of them in person, and last time we played you guys, Dame dropped 41. Jrue is awesome on offense though. He had a triple double that game. I will give you the first matchup of the season. Dame shot terribly but I'm not convinced that was because of Jrue. We'll see how he plays in the playoffs. If the Pelicans beat us in the series, I'll big your team's biggest fan.

Jrue is sneaky one of the best two way combo guards in the league.
Posted on 4/13/18 at 10:06 pm to KingSpeed
Jrue was on CJ mainly. I imagine that’s how this series will be too
Posted on 4/13/18 at 10:29 pm to KingSpeed
Jrue is known for his defense. And yeah, I don’t believe they had him on Dame much.

Love Zach Lowe but Paul over Jrue is a crime for 1st-team all defense considering Jrue's ability to guard positions 1-3 and Paul missing so many games

Well he will make at least 2nd team all defense this year, so yeah.
The blazers are one of the best in the NBA at scoring off picks. We usually switch everything, and teams know this, so they will always get jrue away from the offensive sets if they can.

Zach just released his podcast on his season awards with Kevin Arnovitz on the 11th

KAT should be in there. Look at his numbers and shooting % and a PER of 25.
Also, he hasn’t missed a game in his first 3 seasons.

Perfect attendance doesn't make you smart.
