    Back issues sure, plus he's shown less.

    NP bud!

    Notice that Brodric and Bruno have the best defensive rating on the team right now.

    And it's not even close.

    Brodric and Nwaba are the only 2 players with positive NET rating on the team as well.

    But it's an extremely small sample size of only 2 games.

    Well lets keep in mind that Porter Jr. is 2 years younger than Brown. Like offensively you could make an argument Porter is better already. Defensively, yes its now close Brown is better but Porter Jr can get better at that over time.

    Neither does MPJ. That's what the surgery was for.

    You are completely ignoring the risk for some reason.

    Do not trade Harden.

    There are too many CFers who think like Windshart.

    It’s almost like they haven’t watched single game this season. Hardens so called 22 second dribbling has been non existent this season. It’s a narrative league

    Lol Windy...i'm sure the Pistons wouldn't want a player of the caliber of James...they couldn't even smell a guy on that tier in like forever...and it's not like they're already watching a bunch of scrubs dribble and chuck up for 48 minutes per game...they might be the team with less talent on the roster the league has seen in the last 10 years (at least), but "they wouldn't like to see Harden dribble 22 seconds"...sure bro, embarassing.

    So them being irrelevant and missing the playoffs yet again is the preferred alternative?

    this ****** shouldn’t be talking sports

    You completely do not know the risk. I looked into the data. You are basing your take on irrational fear.

    It’s not irrational, Porter has already missed 2 years of ball because of injury

    The height of inaccurate, bullshit Harden slander was showcased in the latest Bill Simmons podcast with Jackie MacMullen and Bob Ryan.

    All 3 about vomited on themselves talking about the idea of Harden being traded to Boston.

    It’s gotten to the point where analysts who are paid to actually pay attention to this game truly believe that Harden is alone on an island of NBA history as the most ball dominant guy who dribbles more than anyone ever.

    Windhorst and the like have a narrative to uphold. I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he isn’t actually that stupid. But his integrity is ****.

    what’s funny is that Boston is currently 2nd in number of ISO possessions per game, and 3rd in isolation frequency
