Could be he just wanted to get stronger, or he realized he was a lot better trying to work the inside more. edit: My dad mentioned the same thing about MJ. For awhile, MJ was skinny as hell, but then after getting mauled in public by the Pistons one too many times, MJ really must of hit the gym or something. | ||

Anecdote about Jordan is that people told him to not lift at all because it would "ruin his shot". So he kinda exploded because he went from almost no lifting to an actual program. | ||

Going from Byron Scott jacking Kobe off to Walton and young talent it's not that surprising in hindsight. Though I didn't expect them to be this competitive straight away. | ||

It's funny watching him try to take people off the dribble, he gets bodied out every time and ends up getting ripped, stopped, or tossing up a wild layup. He's REALLY gotta hit the weight room because he's significantly less effective purely because he's not strong right now. Otherwise he's been quite solid. Ya sometimes I hold my breath ha. But it's just nice to see him being aggressive while on offense lately. He actually wasn't driving much during the preseason and first few games of the regular season. He would run the P&R and really only look to pass. But now he is taking it in more and turning the corner on those defenders. His defense has been pretty solid though. His length and underrated understanding on that end has already been able to make an impact on most games. Deng on the other hand, my god. Everytime I hear he is 31 I am surprised because he plays like he is 35. Those years in Chicago that Thibs ran him into the ground are really showing now. Can't believe still three more years after this one SMH. | ||

I mean, everyone knew that the team would be completely different after Byron and Kobe left, but I think most of us underestimated just how different they'd be. | ||

But anyone else really hate the new NBA website? It's an abomination, who the hell decided on this rubbish layout. Looks like a half-assed mobile version for desktops. | ||

You can't really hate the them this year, Luke playing d during training makes them even more likable. And Nick Young going full tryhard this season. But anyone else really hate the new NBA website? It's an abomination, who the hell decided on this rubbish layout. Looks like a half-assed mobile version for desktops. Everyone hates the new NBA.com I'd wager even PTI and TNT have weighed in on how terrible it is. | ||

next time i'll make that more clear. Colangelo in Philly in an earlier NBA thread i evaluated Colangelo as an average GM. Based upon the development the past 3 years of his draft picks and staff hires in Toronto i'd like to adjust that evaluation and say he is slightly above average to above average as a GM/Prez/B-Ball Operations guy. I know it looks bleak in Philly right now but as long as ownership stays out of Colangelo's way he'll do some good things. | ||
