Btw. @cleantheglass's algorithm thinks Jokic's performance last night was not better (or worse) than a typical performance.
So this is the norm now:
Nikola Jokic (DEN): 32 pts (11/19 2p, 1/2 3p, 7/8 ft), 21 reb, 10 ast, 3 tov, 2 blk in 44 min
If you also stumble over this in @DanFeldmanNBA's Daily Duncs, the highest seed summation is indeed 29 (7, 6, 8, 8), but is only achievable by a 2-seed.
A 1-seed can only get to 28 (8, 5, 7, 8).
Great video by @elgee35 about GSW hunting Davis in PnR to move LAL's best defender away from the basket.
Reminded me of another odd strategy of not involving your best offensive player to "hide" Kawhi Leonard on him and rather play 4 on 4.

I just watched the draw principles for he upcoming FIBA World Cup.
It's quite complicated, so I had to watch it again. There are so many restrictions that from my understanding these teams will end up in the same group: ESP and BRA - MNE and MEX

I got to reply to this quote from Tyronn Lue:
Yes, taking the perspective from watching the games in Europe, your games actually start at 4 am in the morning. Not this matinee game though
#NoExcuses still holds true though.

There is a new Thinking Basketball video by @ElGee35 about peel switching to protect your weakest defender on the court, which is an exceptionally great watch (as always).

First time today, I wasn't able to solve POELTL, ending my streak at 29. (I don't play every day.)
Anyone still at 100 win pct with longer streak?
Holy moly! @ElGee35 dropped an exceptional great video yesterday about the Warriors historic defense.
17 minutes of incredible details about communication, schemes and trust.
There is a 5 minute bonus video on his patreon.

After seeing dozens of book pictures with impatient envy over the last weeks, I've finally received my copy of Seth's book today.
Everyone has bought it in my Twitter bubble, no?

Japan has a player who shoots 100% from halfcourt. The problem is, you risk a shot clock violation due to his really slow release....

If you also see a distinct square here, it is because of Kobe and Duncan making their last All-NBA team in 2013.
