A lot of turnaround fades do the same thing, it’s just much quicker. Dudes jump off the back foot after the front foot has already pushed off and giving some backward momentum. That’s how some dudes can cover a lot of ground on it. A bunch of Kobe’s fades are like that, but I’m sure Jordan and dudes before him did the same thing.

One of the lessons in this article is to see a doctor when you are experiencing unusual pain. Makes no sense to suffer through it.

More impressive for the Nuggets. LeBron forces teams into win-now moves and jumps ship when things start trending downward. Nuggets were a solid team for most of LeBron’s career, but I’d bet that LeBron’s teams had a better record during most of those years.

I wonder what the home/away record was. I bet a lot of teams rest guys when they visit the Nuggets as part of a b2b.

Opinions on Poole are all over the place, so he’s a good answer for both sides of this question. Poole has actually put up good numbers when he was the 1st option and Curry was out, so it’s more a question of how much of that was real and can translate into his new situation.

I think he is better than what a lot of people give him credit for, but he’s also inconsistent. He can be a legitimately good passer at times or he can be a black hole.
