Don't mind heat checks. Not one bit.

Jaylen told his teammates it was his bad, but really didn't need to. You WANT your stars having the confidence to do that when they are cooking.

If you are all for feeding the hot hand, you can't care a bit over a heat check when someone has it going.

Keep jacking them up, Kemba. Show us why MJ didn’t want to keep you around.
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:
Quote
At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

No one expected you or Moranis to agree with that.
Or, y’know, any actual talent evaluators. There’s a reason Tatum and Brown are on near-max money and are All-Stars / All-NBA level talents, while TimeLord is none of those

I'm actually starting to think that he may be the best passer on the team.  Smart might have something to say about that.  I don't know.

He finds passing lanes that our other guys just don't, and he puts stress on the opposing defense because they don't know where he's going with the ball.  It's not just these predictable swing-to-the-next-guy-around-the-arc passes... he regularly finds guys on the other side of the court and those passes kill modern defenses.

His passing is so underrated. Let me be clear he is not as good as Tatum and Brown from a talent standpoint, but his game feels more complete on both ends.

There’s no such thing as being hot. It’s the biggest fallacy in the NBA.

Posted this in another response but just to clarify my response he is not as good as Tatum and Brown from a talent standpoint, but his game feels more complete on both ends.

Also he plays like this for a large sample and someone could max him eventually

Time Lord makes everyone else on the court better.

According to random internet blogger, whereas actual NBA players disagree.

That's great D by Romeo. Starting off strong defensively like he ended.

Completely disagree. Even at a high school level or high quality street ball, sometimes, you can just feel you can't miss and don't. The hot hand is a real thing, IMO.
