GORDON STILL SIDELINED Aaron Gordon, the Magic’s top scorer and second-leading rebounder, missed his fourth straight game since a collision with Lakers forward Julius Randle put him in concussion protocol. “The worst thing that can happen to an athlete is to be concussed while being con- cussed,” Vogel said.

  • Kyle Anderson Forecast
    You hear that Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability Agent Smith was wrong about what was inevitable for Mr. Anderson in The Matrix, was John Hollinger in signing UCLA alum Kyle 'Slo Mo' Anderson? Mr. Hollinger was a basketball analytics pioneer who went from writing Pro Basketball Prospectus books to working for the Memphis Grizzlies front office. Naturally then, we will use analytical tools to evaluate Mr. Anderson, his new contract, and forecast his 2018-19 performance to gauge if Mr. Hollinger's sense of inevitability was correct. Kyle Anderson's Strengths Defense is where Mr. Anderson stands out most. He was #16 in Defensive Win Shares (DWS) in the NBA last year, #6 in Defensive Rating, and #3 in Defensive Box +/- (per Basketball Reference). Teammates play a factor in defense certainly, but he was the highest rated Spur in DWS and DBPM, and his 101.2 just Defensive Rating was just behind Dejounte Murray's 101. He did well in other defensive stats, but they did not have him as the top stopper on the Spurs. His DWS on NBA.com had him at #29, lower than teammates #18 Murray and #7 LaMarcus Aldridge, but still as one of the 30 best defensive players in the Association. Total Defensive Rating (TDR) from Basketball Analytics author Dr. Stephen Shea takes into account Interior and Perimeter defense separately and had him ranked tied for #42 (3.9) in the league. Similar to the NBA.com number his teammates rated higher: Murray was #6 (8.9), Rudy Gay was #24 (5.5) and Danny Green was tied for #39 (4.2).

  • April Coaching Notebook
    ZAK BOISVERT – NOVEMBER 2017 COACHING NOTES Boston's early adversity is putting Stevens' magic touch to the test (ESPN.com) -Even down an All-Star, Stevens has been careful not to temper expectations for his Hayward-less team. Instead, he has put an even greater focus on his typical "get better each day" philosophy. While observers ponder if the Celtics can still compete for a top spot in the Eastern Conference, Stevens focuses on the next day, the next practice, the next possession. -The Celtics, with an average age of 25.06 years, are the fifth-youngest team, according to the NBA's roster survey conducted at the start of the season, trailing only the Suns (24.49), 76ers (24.65), Lakers (24.89) and Trail Blazers (24.89). To combat his team from getting caught up in its overall lack of experience, Stevens won't allow his players to use age as a crutch. "Let's beat the age thing. Let's not talk about the age thing," Stevens said. "Let's talk about how we can be better at what we can control and how we can learn and grow every day and everybody expedite the learning curve.” Added Stevens: "If we're not committed to getting better, individually and collectively, then we're not good enough. If we are, we'll see what happens. But that's the only way to go about that." -"When he establishes [players' roles] and when he's explaining that everyone has to be great in their role and collectively have to be great -- every single detail is important, every person is important.
