This will be my official "LeBron watch" thread for the 09-10 season. Tonight LeBron looked GREAT against a very good Celtics team. He dropped 38 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 blocked shots, and 2 steals. The guy's J looks alot better and he shot it with alot more confidence tonight. If this guy gets his J in consistent form, watch out league. The Cavs bench was outscored heavily by the Celtics bench and the team still has trouble defending the pick n roll (Orlando killed them last year with it). The Celtics on the other hand looked sharp and with Garnett & Sheed in the front court will be a matchup problem every night.

Well we usually talk NBA in general in this forum since there is no strictly NBA forum...

Besides, what's the point in talking about the Bobcats? :lol:

So because they lost their first game of the season, on the road, and to probably the best team in the league, we should stop talking about them?

Makes sense.

King James statline of 23 points, 12 assists, and 11 rebounds in last night's loss to the Raptors was the 25th triple double of his 7 year career.

“Early in my career, I’d get very upset when you lose two or three games, you’d just feel like you can’t turn it around. But I’m at a point in my career now where I know that you can lose two but, at the same time, you don’t look too far into it. You learn from the mistakes and you just try to get better. I’m still positive. If it was 25 or 35 games into the season and we were going through a three- or four-game losing streak, then I’d be a little bit disappointed, but I’m not at this point.”

      I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.

      The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
