Those threes are nice but I can't look pass his bad defense. He's gotta be the worst defender on the team.
Ummm, and where are the stats to back up this outrageous claim.
The Celtics allow 108.3 points per 100 possessions when Turner's on the floor. No player has a worse impact. When Turner sits, that number drops down to 101. This is the difference between the eighth- and 26th-ranked unit in the league. He easily gets lost.
Turner has played out of position for large parts of the season and had to guard point guards. This is why NBA stat geeks who over use stats gets annoying.
Since I'm pretty sure that was a shot at me, I will just respond with if you're just going to make up something that has no stats to back it up, guess what? It's not true, cause its an opinion. And that's really annoying.
"Larry Bird made his teammates better." Fact? Falsehood? Enigma? Unprovable claim?
Opinions can be true, and stats can't prove anything with certitude. Basketball is a game with an infinite number of variables, most of which can't even be quantized.
Doesn't change the fact players like KO and ET are the worst defenders.
I see. It's a "fact" when you say it.
Post up something about Sully then please.. From the eye test Sully looks pretty bad, but our team is terrible regardless of whether or not Sully us at fault here.
