Looks like only one at a time. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/help/faq_subscriptions.jsp#q9

I watched enough 250 pound players bouncing off Shaq's fat *** as he backed them down in ISOs to remember. :) The Bulls were somewhat different but...

Agreed on both counts.

In theory. I know you say that but regardless of how many times they moved the ball it was virtually always to get to one of two players. In Shaq and...

I honestly wouldn't mind Lou in demars spot but he's had his share of ISO brain farts this season.

Well considering the offence is largely built around our guards, that means turning the reins over to Vasquez, Lou, or Ross. Damned if you do, damned...

The right player and cast I can think of are MJ and Bulls and Kobe and Lakers. No, we don't have that. ;) tbh I don't want that. That gets old...

There have been a few comments from people who don't regard him as core. In fact, his type of player is EXACTLY what should be core. Very versatile,...

The problem with that Lowry quote is that he doesn't know what the problem is. **** man, the problem is that it's a team game and 5 players have a...

It's not really messed up. It's been standard-issue NBA mentality since at least AI and Vince. American as apple pie. Unfortunately it doesn't work.

It's a chicken-egg causality dilemma. Player or system. I don't really see DD ever becoming anything but an ISO player or a 3rd option on a much...

Interesting. But is Lowry our Curry, DD our Thompson, are they suited to ball movement like the GSW players are? Is that how they're wired? Is JV our...

Yes to a Paul Pierce type. Always liked his game even though I disliked the player.

yeah 2 losses in a row are pretty rare for gsw. 77-63 with 6 left in the 3rd Q. What I'm impressed with is how relentless the Warriors' ball...

Pretty much. He grew up idolizing him. I don't think anything short of a trade can solve the issue. He is what he is. Some big positives, but his...

I don't think it's that easy, but we've gone in circles over this one before. Let's talk about DeMar, since that's the intent of the thread.

Really entertaining matchup between CLE and GSW right now.

I think it's the second option and the point of this thread is to show how one of the go-to players on the team is hard wired as an ISO player.

I totally understand that and you're right. But coaches are drilling it into them to move the ball to the open man and DeMar is forcing shots....

We've exhausted the topic as far as the Raptors are concerned. If MU signs him, that will be great, then we can open a thread for that.

We are way off topic. He's not a Raptor.

I'm aware of the irony, which is why I say that a range of stats are needed. Keeps everyone honest. Otherwise it's just grasping at one generalized...

I'm talking about the brutal execution. If the stat is too general to detect the obvious problems players and coaches are publicly acknowledging,...

They roll up points against cupcake teams and often struggle against better teams. Generalized stats FTL.

I'm not talking about looks.

I haven't seen much if any resentment in this thread.

Obviously a loophole in the stat because the raps offence can be brutal.

I guess it's up to MU then.

It's really a dead issue. He took the money and left. It was his call.
