Apparently the market is 1 year $18M. Otherwise I assume KCP would have signed a better deal. I'm sure the Pistons are breathing a sigh of relief.

KCP and Randle win

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 2:35pm

nah. KCP sucks. the only thing he beats Ingles is getting shots up. Ingles

smokymountainrain

7/12/17 2:37pm

KCP is the better defender

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 2:38pm

nope. the numbers don't support that. they favor ingles in pretty much every

smokymountainrain

7/12/17 2:43pm

Most likely because Ingles played with Gobert

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 2:44pm

whatever the case, there is no argument that KCP is a better defender. also

smokymountainrain

7/12/17 2:46pm

Gobert is that much better defensively than most other centers

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 2:47pm

Ingles. 3 years 52 million. KCP 1 year 18 million. Any questions?

Pistons offered KCP $80M

They dodged a bullet.

And the jazz may have taken one

Huge Manatee

The Jazz dominate as a unit

Ingram over Hood? Maybe in terms of potential, but last year Hood was either

jreid191

7/12/17 2:50pm

Ingram was significantly improved post all star break

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 2:56pm

Hood was injured most of the second half of the year

wapiti

7/12/17 2:59pm

Randle over Favors? Not a chance.

ManicBlue

7/12/17 2:51pm

The Lakers spent all summer trying to give move Randle, and no one bit......

BoiseBlue

7/12/17 2:53pm

yep. even in a very down and injured year for Favors, the two were pretty much

smokymountainrain

7/12/17 2:58pm

Randle, 13 & 9 vs Favors, 9 & 6

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 2:58pm

On a per possession basis Favors pts and reb were just a hair below Randle

jreid191

7/12/17 3:16pm

Unfortunately, you can't just ignore the injuries

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 3:18pm

Tough argument

wapiti

7/12/17 3:22pm

and Randle missed 104 games over the previous 2 seasons. Are you going to hold

ManicBlue

7/12/17 3:39pm

Where are you getting your stats? Randle played 81 games in '15-'16 and 74

KCP can't throw it in the ocean...if he could the Pistons wouldn't have....

Jazz in 4.

Lakers suck

cougarnerd

7/12/17 2:31pm

Jazz have 5 of the top 7 players in that particular matchup

jreid191

7/12/17 2:43pm

Randle was better than Favors last year

Huge Manatee

"Ingram will surpass Hood very quickly, if he hasn't already".....

BoiseBlue

7/12/17 3:01pm

When you say the last month, you're talking about April right?

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 3:05pm

When looking at the splits for Ingram March is the anomaly.

wapiti

7/12/17 3:13pm

yep, if we want to look at March while ignore April regression, Rubio is the

smokymountainrain

7/12/17 3:20pm

I didn't say ignore April

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 3:24pm

post all-star game he shot 47% FG, 27% 3P, and 54% FT

jreid191

7/12/17 3:30pm

Those numbers don't seem that far off from Hood

Huge Manatee

7/12/17 3:37pm

The 27% 3 pt% and 54% FT% are much worse

wapiti

7/12/17 4:11pm

?? Ingram averaged 13.2 ppg on 47.7% shooting between March and April (18 games)

Faceman

7/12/17 3:20pm

not that far off. 42% FGs, 25% 3pt for a dismal and embarrasing 46% TS% in April

smokymountainrain

7/12/17 3:23pm

12.7 ppg on 42% shooting is still much better than the claim of 7.8 ppg on

As a Duke fan who's watched/loved both Ingram and Hood, I choose Ingram all day

His defensive rating was beyond awful last year

wapiti

7/12/17 8:24pm

Both teams would make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference

Funke

Valid point

A lot Winn depend on Hood improving. He will need to be consistent and able to
