re: Dyson vs Herb season long thread

Dyson last 9 games of win streak(missed a game due to injury)

11.6 pts
8.1 Rebs
6.3 assists
2.4 steals
0.6 blocks
59.3 fg%
17.3 +\-

Don't forget the most important stat (and the.12% 3pt% )... Four years, 100 million dollars. He was not worth that for the Pels.

DD has 2 HUGE problems.

1. He has totally lost confidence in his outside shot which is understandable considering his 12% 3-pt numbers for the season.

2. And EVEN worse...he is basically refusing to shoot 3-pt shots. He actually tries to NOT be caught in a position where he is wide open at the 3-pt line. THIS IS NOT GOOD...

One thing about Herb...he actually goes out of his way to throw up 3-pt shots...which should eventually lead to his return to the norm...which for him, is somewhere around 35/36%.

But can he do it again?

We can live with Dyson going out, honestly we needed it because now Hawk can get more run in the second unit

---

Jesus lmao

quote:

Hawk is wayyyyyy more important to this current team. Dyson needs a lot more development to even become a serviceable offensive player. We’re on the clock to have a contending team and you’d be hard pressed justifying Dyson getting significant minutes in playoff games

This poster didn’t like my take that Hawk shoulda been shipped out instead of Dyson. He agreed with you that Hawk was a better player. All upvotes zero downvotes.

Different thread. Do you ever get tired of taking Ls from me? I’m just wondering?

He’s not a viable NBA player but somehow viewed as an asset in the trade market. Props to pelicans for moving him before it was obvious to the league.

If Dyson doesn’t develop a jump shot or some kind of offense to his game he will be playing in Australia in a couple years

He has a higher chance of going home and playing in the Australian Basketball League

Pretty big L for you to do all that work.

---

Lol. A pretty big L would be your takes in that thread. Hawk over DD lol. Guess you wised up and gave up on that hot take at least.

quote:

---

Above average on defense. But he is a guard that can’t dribble (create) or shoot. Gotta be able to do one of those as a guard in the nba.

---

quote:

---

NO TEAM would consider today trading a future first for Dyson . Now that is laughable.

---

At least you not as dumb as this idiot. This aged well, as he was the top wing defender in the league last year.

quote:

---

As usual

---

So first I made it up, then post receipts, then it’s only a few posters, but ignore the other 20 quotes before those, with the downvote/upvote counter, including your hot takes. And there’s many more I didn’t include for context. And now it’s I wished DD well so it doesn’t count.

Pretty hilarious the mental gymnastics you come up with. Just eat the L dude. You should be use to it by now. I can tell you definitely voted Kamala.

---

Because they don't support the false narrative you've conjured up.

---

I’m not gloating lol. You saying I made it up is the funny part when I post quotes saying Dyson will never be anything or that he sucks and is a scrub and its the ‘board doesn’t agree with your false narrative’ but it has 80 upvotes and zero downvotes. I wouldn’t say the board if it was close to 50/50. But it wasnt, it was 100% on those hot takes. So yes it’s the boards view. That dog don’t hunt.

It’s embarrassing the mental gymnastics you try and post. I’ll give you kudos tho for trying to come back and attempting, albeit poorly, to try and save face on a thread that has completely blown up on you.

quote:

---

Theres no need to lie. You lost this argument. As usual

---

I posted comments that said other people thought he’d be closer to being out of the league than becoming a starter. I also said the board thought he’d never be a rotational piece on a playoff team that you also said wasn’t true.
But what do you think that means when he’s called a scrub and will never turn into anything and has a 100% upvotes? You think that means a starter on a playoff team or a 11th end of the bench guy?

I lost the argument as usual? Like your hot take that Hawk is better than Dyson lol?

quote:

---

None of them saying he wont be a rotational player in the playoffs.

---

quote:

---

Sometime you just are who you are. Dyson is a very limited offensively- defensive player that doesnt belong on an NBA backcourt in the playoffs.

---

These are also your quotes, so I guess I just make shite up right? YOU literally just said he shouldn’t be on the court in the playoffs lol.

quote:

---

You went all in on him being the better player than Herb eventually. I'm here to point out that he's not and will never be.

This is from this very thread, also not looking very good.
