Smoove on a mission

[Nicholasp27]

After the lakers game, we said Smoove was on a mission to prove he's more than a dunker

well, we were right; he is on a mission, as he or chill mentioned recently re: snubbing of rookie/soph game

so, how is his mission going?

7 games and we are 4-3 in those 7

his stats:

pts/rebs/ass/steal/to/block fg ft w/l

2/15 21/15/2/1/0/3 on 6/11 and 9/11 w

2/21 10/15/5/1/3/7 on 3/9 and 4/8 l

2/22 14/5/5/2/3/1 on 6/11 and 1/2 l

2/24 9/7/7/1/0/4 on 1/6 and 7/8 w

2/25 13/11/2/1/1/5 on 4/14 and 5/8 l

2/27 19/9/5/0/2/4 on 6/12 and 7/8 w

3/1 9/9/4/1/2/7 on 3/10 and 2/2 w

that averages to:

13.57ppg

10.13rpg

4.29apg

1spg

1.57to

4.43bpg

29/73 fgs

35/47 fts

that's a 2.73 a/to ratio

if he moves to pf full-time and really applies himself (and hopefully ups the fg%), could he be close to a 15/10/5/5 player?

how many 15/10/5/5 players are there in the league? i know there are only like 11 15/5/5 players...so 15/10/5/5 (or even 15/5/5/5) is even rarer; maybe lebron and ak47?

[exodus]

He has been nasty lately. He has really become an impact player.

[thesheedera]

At first glance I'm not sure if anyone has 15/10/5/5.

That's a pretty unique combination of skills, no matter what each category pertains to.

[Nicholasp27]

yeah, nobody has 15/10/5/5

however, smoove won't be able to average 5 ass or 5 blocks

but if he can get 15-20 in any combo of 3 non-point categories, that would be great

best years:

ak47: 8.1+4.1+2.78=14.98

lebron: 7.4+7.2+2.21=16.81

marion: 12.4+1.8+1.98=16.18

kobe: 6.9+5.9+2.21=15.01

duncan: 12.9+3.9+2.93=19.73

jermaine: 10+2.1+2.55=14.65

shaq: 13.6+3.8+3.03=20.43

big ben: 15.4+1.6+3.15=20.15

The only player that comes to mind is Kevin Garnett, whom I consider to be the best player in the NBA. He puts up like 22/12/5/2.

[Nicholasp27]

yeah, i'm hoping once smoove is moved to pf full-time, he'll start saying he wants to be like kg instead of like ak

kg: 13.9+5+2.17=21.07

but he doesn't do 22/10/6/5

he does 24/14/5/1.5/2

[Popeye]

Smoove on a mission to get Bilas out of the ESPN.

[ATLien_]

LOL I edited my numbers while you were posting. KG is the man, I sure would love to have him.

[Lascar78]

well in all fairness Bilas doesn't get paid to be right. He gets paid to make people watch and talk about ESPN. In that regard, he's probably successful.

[Popeye]

Take that you dumbfvck!!!!!!!!

That's better

[Lascar78]

good stuff

he's an @ss

[WraithSentinel]

Is Bilas and Legler brothers? They look alike and they are both complete idiots. Perhaps they are sons of Peter Vescey.

hehe could be

[tmac13]

He basically said Soove had tons of potential and also could turn out to be a bust..Smoove had a reputation for questionable attitude and work ethic, so I don't think it was an unfair comment..It was exactly that reputation that allowed Smoove to drop far enough for us to get him at 17.

[Lascar78]

the thing with that isn't that the comment was unfair. If it was in studio I would have been fine with it. But he said it at the draft for all to hear, including the crowd, J-Smoove and his family. It is just uncalled for to insult a man on the happiest night of his life

[swolehawk2]

"also could turn out to be a bust"

He said that Smoove was the player in the draft that had the best chance of being a bust.

[TheDude]

lascar has stated it perfectly correct on why it was wrong.

[Diesel]

`Dude, Bilas said Smoove was "the biggest bust of the draft". How is that not saying something wrong?

[Lascar78]

He didn't say that, he said something about him having the highest potential to bust because he was all athleticism. Saying someone has potential to bust is different from saying he is / will be a bust

[Diesel]

When the Hawks plucked Smith with the 17th pick in the first round, ESPN's college basketball analyst, Jay Bilas -- my co-worker Khalid swears Bilas looks like Bruce Wayne -- sat up straight and proclaimed that Smith was the player in the Draft "most likely to be a bust."
