AARON GORDON 12/4/19 VS PHOENIX SUNS

December 5, 2019December 5, 2019bballscholar

AARON GORDON FINALLY!!! AND I MEAN FINALLY HAD HIMSELF A GREAT GAME! SO FAR THIS SEASON HE HAS BEEN IN A AWFUL SHOOTING SLUMP. MATTER OF FACT ALL OF HIS STATS FROM LAST YEAR HAVE DROPPED TREMENDOUSLY! (HE IS HAVING A HARD ADJUSTING TO A NEW ROLE)

GAME SCORE:

SUNS (9-11)

114

MAGIC (10-11)

128

LAST NIGHTS PERFORMANCE WAS AN UNEXPECTED ONE. HE WAS AGGRESSIVE EARLY ON AND PLAYED WITH BRUTE FORCE WHILE DRIVING TO THE RIM. IN THIS GAME HE WAS DOING DAMAGE FROM DEEP. GORDON WAS PERFECT FROM 3 AS HE HAD A SILKY FEATHERY TOUCH FROM THE ARK. WITH ALL THAT SAUCE AARON GORDON SCORED A SEASON HIGH IN POINTS! AND MOST IMPORTANTLY SECURED THE VICTORY.

Victor Oladipo – The Comeback!

November 1, 2019November 1, 2019bballscholar

Great new for Indiana Pacers fans! Victor Oladipo will play basketball this year but he will not start the season fully healthy. The Indiana Pacers have in mind to bring him back late November/early December.

I am excited for him as he and the pacers will look to make a deep run in the playoffs. They might be the most slept on team in the east.

Would you be surprised if the Indiana Pacers make it to the Eastern Conference finals?

Yes , but they’re getting their leader and best player back! Let’s see if he can get them out of the first round! He will be a game changer for them once he returns!

Pacers offseason:

They upgraded their entire team this off-season. And I don’t believe Victor Oladipo will be passive this year!

Check him out before he got injured. He was starting to separate himself!

2019-2020 Chicago Bulls ”young core”

October 19, 2019October 19, 2019bballscholar

What would be a successful season for the Chicago Bulls?

For me , the Chicago Bulls would have to win at least 35 games. Realistically I just want them to take another leap together. This year the bulls drafted a young PG in Colby White and he looked really good in the preseason. Hopefully he can hold down the position and get the offense running right!

I am a bulls fan and I make that no secret and I’ve been that way since day 1, thanks to my dad of course 😇.

My outlook towards this season is somewhat hopeful. I feel like East is wide open and waiting for a hungry team to surprise the league. It’ll be a long shot but this season could similar to how the Brooklyn Nets did last year.

Sleeper Team:

I am not saying the Chicago Bulls will make the playoffs or anything. But am I wrong to think that this team will be competing for more stakes sooner than expected.

Here are Kevin Durant field goal shooting percentages over the last 7 seasons.

Mind you Kevin Durant has averaged over 25Points per game within the last 7 seasons. Check it out 👇🏽

The last column shows his scoring per game from the last 7 years.

A lot of Kevin Durant shots come from the mid range.

Within those 7 years I have found 2 shot charts from different years. The efficiency is unreal from mid range! The first chart is from 2017-2018 season.

The second chart is what he did in his last year with the Golden State Warriors.

2019-2020: Dwight Howard- A 2nd time charm?

September 28, 2019September 28, 2019bballscholar

Hmmm…

Round 2:

So as we all know Dwight Howard is back in Los Angeles.

Again.

Last time we saw him in LA he was playing on a broken back. Kobe Bryant destroyed his ego and kick him out of town. Funny but seriously that’s what happened!

The question is….

What will LeBron James do if Dwight Howard doesn’t live up to expectations?😅

Check out Dwight Howard’s last year’s stats:

Ready to go:

Im not sure who or what the notion is that somehow Dwight Howard isn’t a serviceable big man. Because clearly the stats say otherwise. I must point out that last year stats are slightly skewed because in with the Wizards he only played 9 games.

Style of play:

Dwight should fit in well with his new team. He still can put up more than capable numbers as a big men. He’s capable of running the floor with ease as he has always kept himself in great shape. This is the year to show us that you got heart bro.

Dwight won’t get a lot of plays run for him so he’ll have to solo focus on defense , effort and rebounding. Also he has 15 year in the game. That basketball experience will definitely help! He will be entering his 16th year this upcoming season.

Memories: 👇🏽

Will Dwight Howard be focused on and off the court?

This year he will have a legitimate shot at contributing for a title. All his focus should be on how to become a NBA champion.

If the minutes are there he can still average anywhere from 12-16 points per game with 10 rebounds.

The Lakers should dominate teams on the glass every night!

On Markelle Fultz.

The Orlando Magic have decided to pick up his 12.3M option until the 2020-2021 season.

Meaning he has 2 years to prove himself in this league! Fultz may have found his future home if everything falls into place.

The Orlando Magic are putting their faith in the former number #1 draft pick.

Will Markelle Fultz ever get his mind and body right this season?

Eye Test:

We will immediately see if he’s ready or not. All I ask for him to do while on the court is play with passion!

Disappointing Start:

In his career he has played in 33 games all with the Philadelphia 76ers. He is only 21 years old and he will have a fresh start on a new team.

I am rooting for him!

I believe his problem early on was adjusting to the NBA’s lifestyle.

This time around he has to be mentally tougher or he will not get a another chance in this fickle league.

He was mishandled by the Philadelphia 76ers ; he should of been shut down and reevaluate immediately. Instead of forcing him to go out and play when he wasn’t ready to go at 100%! Hence why the 76ers gave up on him so prematurely. They needed players that could help them win now!

Fultz had immense promise coming out college. Sadly up to this point he has been a huge disappointment in the NBA.

Can you think of a #1 draft pick who has been more disappointing then Markelle Fultz so far?

Side Note:

I hope to see Markelle on the court this season.
