🧵 Anthony Davis had an absolutely legendary defensive series against Memphis this season.
Not only did he average 4.3 blocks per game, but he forced opponents to shoot an otherworldly 24.8% worse than expected within 6 feet.
Let’s look back on some of his best plays…

🧵 Let's not forget Jimmy Butler's 1st round historically great performance against the Milwaukee Bucks.
37.6 PPG, 6.0 RPG, 4.8 APG, 1.8 SPG, 67.1 TS% versus the 4th ranked defense in the league. A thread with stats and film so that we don't forget what happened...

🧵 Heat fans fell in love with Chase Audige last night, and we all know why.
The 24-year-old from Northwestern was awesome on both ends, as he flashed elite 3&D upside.
He appears to be the front-runner for Miami’s last two-way spot. Here’s why…

His 29.5 PPG ranks 2nd in the Vegas SL, and he’s doing this on an elite 68 TS% (54/44/60 splits). His 8.5 APG ranks 3rd.
Last night, he put up 26 points and 7 assists on 9-15 shooting in a win. A thread on his performance…

Bam Adebayo LAPPED THE FIELD in box outs in the playoffs.
His 104 total box outs was 50 more than second place(!), but he only got the rebound on 32.5% of his box outs (lowest among top 7 in box outs). More box outs than 2nd (54) & 3rd (45) combined.

Brooks Barnhizer is averaging 40.2 minutes per game over the last 5 games.

Out of all players in the FIBA World Cup shooting at least 40% from 3, nobody is doing it on higher volume than Nickeil Alexander-Walker. NAW has shot 7 3s per game, knocking them down at a 40.5% clip.

Boo Buie may never play another game for Northwestern, but his impact on the NU MBB program is unmatched.
He led the ‘Cats to back-to-back program-record 12 B1G win seasons and revitalized a program that was seemingly collapsing.
The future is bright in Evanston thanks to Buie.

Bam Adebayo's defense has only improved throughout the season. In the last 30 games, his defensive impact has been skyrocketing.

A huge part of Georgia's top 16 finish in their World Cup debut has been Sandro Mamukelashvili of the SA Spurs, who is averaging 13.0 points and 5.5 rebounds on 64.0 TS%.

Some of what stands out to me:

Off the top of my head here’s who’s better, maybe forgetting some:

Tyrese Haliburton just had the second 5+ 3PM, 5+ AST game in ≤20 MIN in FIBA World Cup HISTORY.

1 point, 1 rebound, and 1 assist in 14 minutes isn’t the most eye popping statline.

Nikola Jovic's perfect 25 point, 121.1 TS% (9-9 FG, 5-5 3P, 2-2 FT) game in the FIBA World Cup is the most efficient 25+ point performance in a major FIBA event* over the last decade.
The next most efficient 25+ point FIBA game over the last decade was a 103.9 TS%.
Pure hooper.

The *next possession* after the three, Audige perfectly navigates these off ball screens and gets into Max Christie’s body. Christie wants nothing to do with it and gives the ball up.
Christie had 6 of the Lakers’ 10 points up to this point. Big defensive play to slow him down.

Like mentioned earlier, AD doesn’t need to block shots to affect them. Look at how he is able to force a kiss from Desmond Bane here.

It’s definitely too little, too late, but ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
What a shot. The cross back after initially going left and getting to the step back without a break in his motion. Bucket.
Having this in his bag is impressive. It won’t be seen often, but it’s there.

Players outside of the top 10 don’t average 38/6/5 on 67 TS% to upset the team with the most wins in the NBA
🧵 Let's not forget Jimmy Butler's 1st round historically great performance against the Milwaukee Bucks.
37.6 PPG, 6.0 RPG, 4.8 APG, 1.8 SPG, 67.1 TS% versus the 4th ranked defense in the league. A thread with stats and film so that we don't forget what happened...

When drafted by Miami, Jovic was around 220 pounds. Now, he’s 240. His thinner frame that was once a concern has now become weaponized as a strength.
He is a force in transition at this size with the ability to move like a guard. Note that nice change of direction to get fouled.

Game 4: 56 POINTS, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 turnover(!), 78.0 TS%, 19-28 FG, 15-18 FT
- The Jimmy Butler masterpiece, leading Miami to a 119-114 win to take a 3-1 series lead.
The most points scored in a 2023 postseason game. Tied for 4th most points in a postseason game.
