    Can we trade Adams for Gafford?

    Where is the powerful offense and the powerful defense as proclaimed by some members of this forum?

    Not hard to stop a guy who has one move late in the game. Why you still gotta go through Ingram if we get this ball back

    Not sure about league wide, but here's how it compares to some other stars in the league since 2012-13:

    Lebron: 22/68 (32.4%)
    Durant: 30/122 (24.5%)
    Anthony Davis: 17/34 (50.0%)
    Steph Curry: 15/48 (31.3%)
    Lillard: 34/93 (36.5%)
    Jokic: 13/24 (54.2%)

    So it seems to be on the lower end for stars. Almost nobody is ''efficient'' in these situations, but 25.4% is pretty low on the scale relative to the other guys. Most them at least crack 30%
    Basketball.

    We have no right saying the Knicks are overated when we can’t even take care of the Wizards.

    No. That's about right.

    And Beal missed another one. Phew.

    Did you expect fireworks? lol closing out games is foreign here.

    SVG messes up the same way every game. When you are UP late, there is no point to having Adams in the finishing 5. The opponent is more likely to take 3's and try to spread you out and by scoring you help your defense and put added pressure on.

    I would bet my life that if SVG closed every game where we were up late without Adams that we would have a MUCH better record in those games. Maybe as much as 4 or 5 more wins this year

    The fact that Adams and Bledsoe are in the game at the end tells all. Either SVG is incompetent or they're tanking...maybe both.

    Washington went 2-22 (9.1%) from three in regulation, and 70% from FT line, and we still couldn't win.

    Stan Van Grundy is a good coach
