Here's a wild one. Per Second Spectrum's shot quality metric, which goes back 12 seasons, the 34 shots LeBron has taken on passes from Luka have the highest score (min. 34 shots) of any teammate during that time. he's had like a million teammates

@SecondSpectrum Luka is going to extend LeBron's career by 3 years. He turned Derrick Jones Jr from a vet minimum journeyman to 3/$30 million contract in the span of about 7 months.

@SecondSpectrum He has NOT had 1 million teammates.

@SecondSpectrum Giving away a true Jedi Also I remember the rumblings ( at the time we all joked that he wished) of LeBron wanting to play with Luka from 5 yrs ago. Make it stop Make it stop Make it stop

@SecondSpectrum Here's a wild one. Triple doubles are like games with two passing TD's. It is not a big deal. Luka has been playing poorly for the Lakers. JKidd led the league 5 straight years in Triple Doubles and never had more than 12. The game has changed. Luka has never led the league

@SecondSpectrum Man it’s so hard watching mavs, but watching Luka is so much fun… so bummed.

@SecondSpectrum Here's a wild one, if Pelinka doesnt re-sign Luka and gave up AD, Max and a pick for 1.5 years of Luka, he's the one that should be fired. You have ground your AXE to a nub. STOP.

JUST IN: Dan Bongino says the shot that Secret Service took to take out Thomas Crooks was one of the most difficult shots the USSS has had to take. Bongino says USSS had a 9-inch window to take the shot because there was a tree in the way. "The counters sn*per team that took out the shooter was a Secret Service team." "[The shot] was one of the most difficult shots that any CS team has taken in a long time. They had obviously seconds to respond." "The shot, from what I heard, there was about a nine-inch window. They had to shoot in from about 400 yards and there was a tree in the way and they still got the shot off."

Whilst making that video, I had a constant issue of not liking a lot of the shots I originally shot after coming back from hiatus. So one of the first things I did was re-record/re-shoot those shots. Here's a few side by side examples;

Ray Allen says his most clutch Finals shot had nothing to do with being clutch “Not just that [Game 6 Finals] shot, but all the preparation that went into it. To be so good at one shot in one moment, it’s like a thousand shots” “Not in one sitting, anybody who shoots a thousand shots in one sitting is lying to themselves, because you ain’t shooting a game shot” “It’s over time, the collection of shots I’ve taken, the work I put in. Knowing where you are on the floor, understanding the lines, where you feel around the basket, your footwork” “Over time it becomes innate every time you step on the court. That was one shot. But look at all the shots I took in practice, warming up” “I used to do drills where I’d lay on my back, jump up, have the coach throw me the ball and I’ve got to shoot. Get on my stomach, do the same thing.

Tim Hardaway Sr absolutely DESTROYS Lebron 🔥🔥🔥🔥 " If you have a team that can stop you from making shots and you go on the other end and you know you have that one guy who can make shots like Luka, like Kobe, like Michael, you see how i didnt name Lebron because he cant do it, he couldnt go to himself he had to go to Kyrie Irving" Tim Hardaway keeping it real and saying what LESPN,Nick Wright, Shannon Sharpe, Cowlin Cowherd and other people in the media Lebron pays through Klutch Sports wont say about that 🤡, Lebron has never been able to be relied on to get buckets consistently and in the clutch when his teams actually need him to score, thats why he needed superteams so his teammates could hit those shots for him. If it wasnt for superteams that fraud wouldnt have any rings

Kon Knueppel is quietly putting up one of the greatest rookie seasons of all-time. He has a real shot at the 50/40/90 club. If I'm calling the shots in Charlotte, I'm moving on from LaMelo and building the team around Kon

Asked Rudy Gobert about how he calculates risk when dropping back in coverage and how much of his job defensively is like a math equation. "You gotta understand that you can't stop everything... I think the main advantage of having me in a drop is to allow my teammates to stay home and take away the catch and shoot 3s, which is one of the best shots in basketball, and for me take away the rim, which is the highest percentage shot in basketball... It's kind of like I'm taking most of the responsibilities on my shoulder for a second to allow the team to take away the most efficient shots."

Here's Ayo Dosunmu talking about what he's reading in pick and roll coverage and why he's taking more midrange shots in Minnesota after those were prohibited in Chicago. "In Chicago, midrange shots was really prohibited. It was 3s and layups, no midrange shots unless it's the end of the shot clock. Here, we got Rudy, he's setting big screens. So if you can set up pick and roll, you come off Rudy, you open." Dosunmu took 4 "long" midrange shots in 45 games in Chicago this season before being traded to Minnesota. And he's taken 12 in 15 games for the Wolves. Dosunmu has also nearly doubled the frequency in which he's taking shots from floater range. Dosunmu took 86% of his shots in Chicago at the rim or from 3. In Minnesota, he's becoming a three-level scorer. And his eFG% has stayed almost exactly the same.

🚨 Alex Pereira just called out Ciryl Gane for several illegal shots to the back of the head during their fight 😳 “It was a lucky jab and he took advantage… that was the opportunity of a lifetime for him. This guy has a long history of it. Dirty shots, punches to the back of the head. I brought that up with [the referee] ahead of time and asked him to keep an eye on it… if you watch the footage man, multiple shots, multiple elbows [to the back of the head]. [The referee] is not a man. He shouldn’t have been refereeing that fight. A guy like that should be punished.” (via Alex "Poatan" Pereira)

Pat Riley just went on The Dan Le Batard Show & said he's "let go" the animosity he had when LeBron left the Heat - which is a REAL change from what Riley said publicly back in 2014. Will any bad memories of that time play a role in whether LeBron chooses the Heat in free agency? (Riley also noted he and LeBron had a nice moment when the Lakers honored Riley with a statue last season, but then said they haven't talked very much in the past 12 years.)

Aryna Sabalenka says the biggest change she’s noticed in Elena Rybakina these last few months is that she goes for her shots without any doubt “Elena seems to have really elevated her game over the last few months. Have you noticed a change in playing her the last couple of times?” Aryna: “She has more confidence and she goes for her shots without any doubt, I would say. I still had had opportunities, but the level was incredible. I feel like she just played more aggressive. She was able to build great confidence starting from the finals. Definitely a better player. As a result, she got a Slam, which is an incredible achievement.” (via Australian Open Press)

In feature film VFX, our lighting teams spend a lot of time shaving off as much render time as possible. Even 1 minute saved per frame adds up. For a 5 second shot, 1 minute less per frame saves you 2 hours of rendering per shot. Our shots are usually a lot heavier than this and our teams usually get a lot more optimization for render times than 1 minute per frame. Some shots can be rendering for up to 30 hours per frame depending on complexity. Large studios have a plethora of optimization tools which shave off a lot of render time from our shots. Rendering technology is always improving, bringing render times down and increasing physical accuracy. Video is of Hyperion with interactive rendering with Pixar's RenderMan XPU renderer, which is up to 5x faster than their older RIS architecture.

xG & Cerny (SPFL Only) Vaclav Cerny & Rangers seem to take a huge proportion of shots from "Outside the Box" from "Low xG" scenarios. xG is only an average result on that scenario on the pitch e.g. Cerny xG from 25yards will not be the same as Nico Raskin Cerny this season has taken(SPFL Only): - 16 Shots from Outside the Box - Average xG of 0.03 (100 Shots would reward 3 Goals) - Cerny has scored 2 of the 16 All that means at a High-Level, as it stands, when Cerny has a 0.03 Probability from "Outside the Box" he is actually closer to 0.12 making him 4 times more likely to score in that scenario. The issue at Rangers is all players are given the same freedom from outside the box: - Bajrami 9 Shots = 0 Goals - Diomande 7 Shots = 0 Goals - Hagi 6 Shots = 0 Goals - Raskin 7 Shots = 0 Goals - etc Potentially having a model closer to Brentford for the "Extra Pass" for the "Easy Goal" & allowing Cerny to be the exception might work better...
