The offense started looking a lot better when we removed the guy with the 27.6 USG and 92 TS+ and replaced him with… anything other than that

This is all eye test, but I remember a period where KP’s efficiency around the rim was probably worse than it should have been because he was trying to tip in tough shots instead of just trying to get the OREB and then either going back up or passing the ball out. Over and above the fact that Mitch was playing at less than 100% a lot of last year, I feel like he may have been doing a little more of that also. There’s probably a fine line between when you do either and maybe Mitch was a bit on the wrong side of that this year and it was part of the reason his efficiency dipped.

62.6 seems like a good amount of money for a year’s work.

The offense looked way way better in the second half of the season with IHart. And I obviously love Mitch. Was night and day though. Would be interested to see what his first and second half offensive splits were like and also how his splits with and without Randle looked. He seemed to thrive in his absence.

Feel like I’d rather have Hakeem Olajuwon in for that training rather than Mike Bibby.

Haha. Agree. No doubt

Let’s get this C that scores off the dribble. 🤭

Haha! Yes!! I’m so curious to know what the guys are working on in the off-season. I hope Mitch is getting his body right.

As for Sims, Bondy/Post reported on 1 Aug that this is his first healthy off-season in three years:

“This year, Sims is fit and training with Mike Bibby, who has been a coach since retiring from the NBA in 2012 after 14 playing seasons, including his final with the Knicks. Bibby, according to a source, emphasized Sims’ offensive game while working toward expanding the 25-year-old’s repertoire.”

Let’s go!

I watched that eight straight times because it made me so happy.

Thibs should be able to coach him (and Precious and Huk) up.
