LVSL SF's: Charlotte Hornets vs. Houston Rockets


Recommended Posts

I Think Ewing wanted to lose

Dyson in, Davis out and PJ inbounding...

 

 

Why have PJ inbounds the ball?? I dont get it.

 

PJ was supposed to get the ball back until that pathetic McConnell lost control of it. Seriously, can this guy move at all? He makes me want to run up to him and push him just to see if he'll speed up any. I am literally watching paint dry when he has the ball.

Usually, the inbounder (especially if he can shoot) is the guy the play is run for. But, being that Ewing for some reason took Davis off and put Dyson in, there wasn't enough competent players to get the play executed. So we ended up almost turning the ball over the first time, then McConnell swinging it to Dyson for a shot, while neither PJ nor Vonleh touched it.

That's the part that sucks about SL... too many scrubs.

Who lost it the first time? McConnell

Who swung it to Dyson, as if it had to go to him? McConnell

 

McConnell is exactly why I'm not the biggest fan of Steph Curry. I can't stand upright point guards with inferior athleticism. That's the type of junk you get from them in big moments when everything tightens up, because they won't be able to break anyone down and make anything happen when the officials allow defenders to be more physical right at the end of games.

 

Same thing happens to Curry in big end of game moments because he usually can't out-athlete, out-quick, or out-muscle his defender.

Actually Brownlee swung it to Dyson...

If I'm Brownlee, I'm shooting that or taking it to the rim.

If true, that "Brownlee" swung it to Dyson, that's the last time I'll just go along with what Proudiddy says, although I'm still seeing McConnell passing it to Dyson. 

 

I need to see a clip to change what I'm remembering.

Yeah, McConnell passed to Brownlee, who passed it to Dyson.

My point remains... McConnell dribbled towards the sideline, got trapped (after almost turning it over the first time we tried to run the play), passed sloppily out of it, and then Brownlee passed to Dyson who was standing about 3 ft in front of him... smh.

So, as I said, the play broke down because of McConnell and Dyson.

I won't talk too much crap about McConnell because he was our best option at PG, but he choked big time at the end... Dyson shouldn't have even been on the SL roster. And he REALLY shouldn't have been in there at the end of the game after sitting 3 quarters.

Wait until PJ is inbounding to Kemba who knows how to swing it back to PJ for the three. That's what we should all be thinking about. None of us will even remember Mickey Dyson when the season rolls around. Panthers training camp is right around the corner...cheers!

    • I am no football savant as has been demonstrated here over and over, but I saw it.  I went for years doing the mock draft thing and researching the players that we might get around our pick, time consuming stuff. And we would get to the draft and trade the pick. All that time, wasted.  So I quit doing that. Also realized I was not a scout and would never be a scout and went to looking the videos and reports After  we picked a guy.  Maybe I would look at the 1st round, but quit that too and just looked after we picked.    When they did that trade I saw Bryce and his size and just ruled him out. Then it got to yeah they are probably going to take him, I relented and looked at some video and got to his pro day. It took me all of a few minutes to see the issues. The footwork. The arm. And the tape of games? The backyard style. I knew, what can I say?  (Also, went down the physical checklist, not a single plus attribute on the NFL level. Arm, speed, size, etc, nothing to offset the negatives. nothing)  I think it was easy for me because I had not watched a single game he played in college,and wasn’t drawn in by the hype. Had no preconceived notions and just looked at it pretty clinically.  I got in here and everyone was going “but look at what he did in college! It is the SEC, if he can do it in the SEC he can do it in the NFL!” Couldn’t reason with hardly anyone.  I don’t think I could tell you which guy would succeed between two prototypical guys with great arms and athleticism, and have no special insight into any of that. My one calling in football scouting was to see the real about what we were about to do. And you still don’t know for sure until they get in a real game in the NFL. 
    • Miss Bryce sorely is possibly the most hilarious statement I have read on the Huddle in quite some time.
    • He did only throw 1 pass 20+ in that game. I think he is still struggling to adjust to the NFL. At Alabama he was able to extend plays and play backyard football. That's not only not the style of offense we have been running but his physical skills don't lend themselves to that style of play at this level.  So, the amount of issues he actually has to clean up are WAAAAAY more than I anticipated as a guy that had Bryce #1 on my board in that draft class.  I am just not seeing a reasonable path for him to clean it all up and develop in a reasonable timeframe
