I mean I understand what you mean, I deffinitly expect more from him with those ratings its crazy with a dmi over 5 million he should be a top 5 pg in the world for sure, but if you look at his stats last season he gradually improved and at the end was playing very good ball so im hoping if i can get the job i will watch everyone but espicially him very very closely becuz im hoping he can keep the momentum and good playing he finished with and start like that this year !

My biggest beef with Bronson is not the low FG%, which is common among guards of in LI, but the high volume of shots. What I would like to know is this: Bronson takes more than twice as many shots as Nix (14.7 per game vs. 6.9). Those 7.8 shots are usually low percentage ones, so I wonder, when Nix plays are those extra shots any good or are they also crap, but tend to be taken by someone other than Nix?

Right, this is kind of what I was getting at. Basically, if you could, would you subtract, say, 5 JS from bronson's skills? (ignoring the ancillary effects on salary, and what that would do to his GS). Basically, would you trade a bit off the shooting % if it meant he also took fewer shots overall?

The reason I think this is relevant (beyond that fact that it's the strategy both of us employ on our club teams) is that it potentially changes the player pool, with guys like Selby, Kitchen (if he gets more OD) and McCullough then being more in the mix than they are now.

question to Atlanta Dirty Birds

how would change everyone up if one has a weakness one doesn't? (like for example Player Y doesn't have quite good secondaries and Player X does have nice secondaries but a little lower primaries? or this Player A has a 19/14/18/14/20-/6/4/2/1-/9/10 and player B has this: 16/10/18/12/17/-/11/14/10/9-/4/2 which guy would you pick.............???

ok ok who would you start in

A is SG and B if SF


and you have a couple of injuries and these are the call ups

more clear guys?

Can you make this question a little clearer? I have trouble understanding it, and I think the candidate probably will too.

Why hasn't Bronson played like the world class PG that he should be?


There is isn't a response that can truly answer that question in its in entirety, but obviously his IS is hurting him in a look inside offense.

Are we just wrong in stating that he's been disappointing?


Has he been useless? absolutely not, but disappointing because his expectations are pretty high.

If the latter, do you think we need to re-evaluate how we select guards? Maybe more JS, or JR, or Dr, is *not* a good thing? Or, maybe we're prioritizing things incorrectly?


I think if we are completely going to sell out to the look inside offense than our builds should be more like that of Richard Ugona, where we would sacrifice JR for more IS. An added bonus to doing this also makes it more feasible for the club teams to pay the player's salary instead of having to take the financial hit of carrying a monster player for the sake of the NT (which not a lot of managers like to do). Doing so also keeps them in the hands of reliable managers longer rather than having them being sold every season to a different manager who we hope keeps his GS.
