re: Lead off man on top of the 9th, so much on the line

[quote]. LSU can’t ever seem to succeed in any sport if they dont have a team full of experienced elite players. And even then it’s still a struggle[/quote]
You could say the same about literally any university out there…do y’all think championships are won by teams without elite upperclassmen?

re: Freaking bunt him
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 5/12/24 at 4:27 pm
Playing for 1 run by bunting a guy to 2nd base in the top half of an inning where you’re down 1 is far from standard. You still need a hit to score him. I’d be much more critical of the decision not to bunt if we could have set up man on 3rd with 1 out....

re: First baseman had wrong foot on the bag restricting his ability to stretch for the throw
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 5/11/24 at 7:23 am
Unlike a routine grounder to another infield spot, on that play with a throw coming from behind the runner down the 1st base line, the 1st baseman is supposed to square up to the catcher on either the outside or inside of the bag and give them a target/throwing lane.
Pretty standard stuff. Jones ...
re: So our 6’”4 first baseman
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 5/11/24 at 6:53 am
First baseman is taught to set up on the inside of the bag to give the catcher a lane to throw to
Almost impossible to adjust to a ball thrown on the other side of the bag from that short a distance
Really not a lot Jones can do there on that type of bad throw ...

[quote]Jones and Murphy came from the same draft class. Jones has massively outperformed him (Jones is a finalist for DPOY). They play the same position and role. Murphy is more than likely going to be his back up. But you want to pay Murphy more than double on the hope that he becomes a 20+ppg benc...
We badly need somebody with offensive juice
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 4/30/24 at 8:47 pm
Without Z to collapse the defense we have nobody who could really go by their perimeter defender. Obviously Tyrese Maxey is unattainable but that *type* of player would do wonders for our team...

[quote]am conflicted on this. I couldn't rationalizing giving Murphy 25M+, when Jones is getting 13M. That doesn't make sense.[/quote]
This is like wondering why Ant Edwards makes less than Bradley Beal…they aren’t in the same contract situation. The CBA limits the salary some players can sign at...
re: End of season interview
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 4/30/24 at 1:36 pm
I know it’s easy to be a negative about Griff not making changes rn but the last 40 games of this season have made it blatantly obvious what needs to be done.
The health excuse no longer holds water. We saw what a Pels team with all 3 healthy looks like, and it’s a good, not great team. Add in th...

[quote]Probably unpopular take but I’m more annoyed about us taking Hawkins over guys like Whitmore and Podz. I think Willie would have played these two more than Hawkins in the second half of the season.[/quote]
Hawkins being an oldish college player who can’t get on the floor for us is not good...
re: This is about Willie Green
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 4/30/24 at 11:49 am
There is literally no combination of Nance/JV minutes or “team chemistry” that would have won the Pels this series. Our best player was hurt and #2 and #3 played like shite. You just can’t overcome that sort of thing....
re: How badly has this playoff series damaged BI’s trade value?
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 4/30/24 at 11:41 am
I think people understate the desperation of other teams this offseason, plus the lack of other all-star(ish) players and the need for wing play. Detroit in particular seems to me like a team that is embarrassed by their Uber-shittyness this season and will be looking to take chances to improve.

In a 10 team I'm staying put and taking Nabez, in 12+ teams due to QB scarcity I'd probably trade back and take a QB.

re: Another big pickup for Men’s Basketball
Posted by DallasTiger45 on 4/11/24 at 8:59 pm
The debate over whether McMahon has talent or not is pointless. That’s part of his job description. He’s responsible for the play on the court, period.
Atrocious 1st year in a very tough situation
Mediocre 2nd year
It’s time for a good team in year 3. Make the tournament or get damn close t...

Using BPR as your preferred way to rate a player and then mentioning that it rated Dalton Knecht 6th on his own team is not exactly helping your argument…clearly this efficiency stat does not scale well with varying usage rates...
