Simmons to Warriors? Almost makes sense.

I don't see it. It would be impossible to play Draymond and Simmons together.

Why? Draymond and Bogut worked together just fine.

For a lot of teams, I might agree that you can't work with two guys with that little outside shooting, but surrounded by Curry, Klay, and Porter/Poole, it should work well. On offense you have two bigs that are great distributors setting screens for and passing to the best shooters in the game. On defense you have two of the most switchable defenders in the NBA. Kerr could have a lot of fun with this roster.

It's possible. I just don't see it working. Bogut never had the ball in his hands, he was just there to set picks. Draymond and Simmons are basically the same player, as far as their role on the Warriors. If you have one, you don't need the other. If I were the Warriors, I'd trade Draymond for Simmons

Also, not sure why the Warriors would want to deplete their "depth", if you can call it that. They really seem to like their role players and they are playing well right now. Not sure why you'd want to risk it for a player that does the same things as Draymond.

But like I said, if the Sixers would do Draymond/Filler/a pick for Simmons, I'd want that if I were a Warriors fan.

Anyone know where I can find team stats for wide open shot shooting percentage?

You can change the Closest Defender Distance depending on how open you're looking for.

Thank you. Can’t wait to see how bad the Mavs number is after this game.

Looks like they got some garbage time buckets but I swear at one point I looked and the Rockets had like 23 TOs to 10 assists. KPJ still rocking more TOs than assists for the season. INVE$$$T

Is there any reason why Moses Brown isn't getting any run on the Mavericks? Dwight Powell isn't good and has literally no upside at all. Do the Mavericks want to develop any young players? This is another situation where they've gotten a young guy and given him absolutely zero run.

That game a was joke. The refs are throwing calls out there just to #@#@#@#@ on teams.
Celtics get calls to send the game to OT/keep the game close the whole way. OT comes and in the last minute the C's up one Tatum drives the ball to the hoop and is fouled. Refs review and there isn't a foul call... Refs in the league are threw for the overtime and Wizards to win

Watch 4:55 onwards. Hit on the arm and then goes to block the ball, but the arm on shoulder and then second arm on arm is an obvious foul.

So you’re telling us that the NBA has some master plan to favor perennial 9-10 seed Washington Wizards over the 2nd most popular team in league history who make the playoffs just about every year? Wow!

76ers have the #1 offense in the NBA so far. Amazing what adding shooters can do around Embiid.

Just that the NBA is terrible at officiating. Celtics got all the calls to send it to OT and then in double OT the Wizards start getting calls.

All I ask is some consistence in reffing. Like they went back and reviewed the call too; and they still got it wrong. WTF
