Love this analysis Eric, this is awesome
For fans of basketball minutiae and great team defense See if you can spot everything that happens on this defensive possession (then I'll walk you through it):
Bub Carrington has made one (1) shot at the rim in 275 minutes this season. Legitiately staggering given how much he has the ball — had to triple-check to make sure it was right. Shooting 19.4% from two.
Michigan is obviously the far superior team in every way but two of the biggest issues coming into the game — turnovers and miscommunicated switches — have been much better thru one half. Still not perfect, especially on D, but given how much off-ball action Oakland runs, a real…
Early trend I've noticed this year in the NBA is more teams 'next' switching, especially on double ball screens or when a screener shallow cuts like in this play. McBride takes the ball handler here & Bridges switches out to Tre Johnson behind the arc, neutralizing any advantage

Robert, may I recommend to you our basketball analytics course: bballanalytics.com There’s an entire module on shot selection. Context matters — who is taking the shot, the defensive coverage, and how much time is on the shot clock!
Analytics is taking over the game and some are great. One of the worst one is the no mid-range concept. In my opinion, I just need the points—SCORE how you can! Imagine if SGA, Kobe, Melo would listen to this? Some people mid-range is better than there layup!

This is such a good defensive play by George. Two on the ball — Kyshawn rotates to prevent a Klay 3 and his body angle makes a tougher pass to the corner. Then he closes out to PJ, preventing a 3P attempt, bodies up in the post, and swallows up the shot. Sheesh.
Kyshawn George island will be fully inhabited soon. People are going to start talking about him nationally before long. Could easily be the Wizards’ best young player. The offense is obvious but he’s grown significantly on defense, too.
Some exciting news! 🎉 I’ve been working with the great @kenpomeroy and @hoopvision68 to create a basketball analytics course! It’s a comprehensive, modern guide to analytics. Proud to have helped the project come to life and think it’s really high quality. More below 👇
This part seemingly wasn’t reported earlier today, but if Chauncey was alerting gamblers that Portland would be sitting a player -- who is almost certainly Dame -- before it was public, Billups is completely fucked
After reading the two DOJ indictments, it seems pretty clear that Chauncey Billups is a central figure in both the poker and betting investigations (which are intertwined in multiple other ways). He isn't named in the latter, but the allegations for "Co-Conspirator 8" are huge:
Great reporting from Fred My wife also has POTS, among other neuro issues. She cant do strenuous physical exercise anymore & it’s often much worse I don't know how KP can play in the NBA - at a high level - but POTS can be debilitating & I hope he keeps managing it successfully
Kristaps Porzingis is in a new place — but then again, so are the Hawks. Story from Atlanta on a 7-foot-3 big man trying to show he’s still got it and a revamped squad hoping to do the same: nytimes.com/athletic/67372…
