kobe was a barometer for their offensive health bc his job was eating broken possessions when the triangle/shaq actions didnโt work; so in the 04 Finals, 34% of his shots were end of clock/ grenade range: essentially ecosystem failure showing up as his FG%

great pgs have exploited the brief offense-to-defense window after misses, and on-ball wings never internalized it playoff rORtg: after-miss: Hali +17.8, Nash +13.8, Curry +12.2, Russ +10.4, Kidd +7.3 โ Mitchell +2.7, Luka +1.3, Harden +0.5, Shai -1.6

edwardsโ patience and tempoโliterally jogging to the rimโis very 2000s same process as kobe/nash/etc: less built-in spacing advantages and not dealing with crowd by foul hunting, conditions to operate at a slower pace to see the help and work around it

iโm obviously pro-Shai/Curry, so the parasocial fan war stuff doesnโt move me, but iโm genuinely curious why NBA fans have become so ahistorical at the exact moment thereโs more access to old games and context than ever before

nash and kobe are always jogging into the paint, playing with a bounce that makes it hard to read them not a ton of hard cuts or violent decelsโmore looping angles, selective explosions; less of a race/sprint, more dance, everything centered around always being ready to counter

Cutups of Mahomes creating in 2023. - 1st in a drops (34) and off. holding (30), 27th in Rush SR%, etc. yet still remained top 5-10 in a lot of important metrics. - Being 2nd best in PS2% and 5th best in TWP% despite being in creation mode a lot helped establish a good floor.
