and then he went on to win DPOY the next 2 years, then finish 2nd, then win it again b/c no one in the nba ever set picks with their big man on the perimeter, but sure, let's believe your memory of a media that wanted to blame someone for a shite USA roster losing to two countries with other good NB...

GTFO
We didn't lose in FIBA in 2002 b/c of Ben Wallace.
We lost to Yugoslavia with Vlade Divac and Peja.
They also lost to Ginobili and Scola in a game where Argentina went 3-14 from 3.
Color me suprised the guys that played the top 4 minutes of Andre Miller, Michael Finley, Jermaine O'N...

CJ/JRE to 76ers
Dejounte, Day'Ron Sharpe, S&T of Claxton (3/$45M) and S&T of Tobias (3/$90) to Pels.
Hawks send 1st to Nets. Nets send Hawks some 2nds back.
Also need the ok from Tobias that he's not starting, but he will be playing 30mpg.

[quote]Draymond is in a different league offensively than those guys. You were pretty much playing 4 on 5 on offense with Ben Wallace.

I'm kind of with you as well.

Jokic is the MVP and champ b/c he realized he wasn't in good enough shape to win it all years ago. He got in shape for being such a big guy and he runs the floor all the time now.

Kind of like how we went 25-12 when all 3 guys played after Christmas, but I keep being told the stats say when they share the court together they aren’t good.
So what is it, stats, or winning?...

Those are stats that don’t fit what I just said.
Those are in game stats when many games both Zion and BI were playing, just one on the bench.

The thing with CJ giving up 30ppg in the two games, it's not like you can really do much to stop that, but you can at least counter it by scoring.
Yeah guys like Dame and Trae have similar stats against them, but if they put up 30-40 points on their own and dish out 8-10 assists, kind of makes you...
