and i hope that happens. i just think it's more likely he continues to catch on teams that need a pg due to injury or a vet fill-in.
Ish, now a Sixer, leads the way!

Ain't played nobody, PAWL!
We should all agree that Ish deserves to GET THAT MONEY.
This may be the worst argument ever.

No way dude. Winners don't care if they score more points than the other team, they only care about winning games!Z!

you realize that if you have more guys with a positive +/- you have a winning team right ? Or does math escape you ?

Ish doesn't care about his own +/-, he's a team player.

I fail to see how this statistic correlates to Ish being a poor basketball player. It's ignoring a lot of information. Maybe the majority of his playing time has been spent on bad teams?

if you put the NBA's +/- leader on the Sixers, I doubt they would stay +

then he may want to play defense...his Defensive RPM is -1.8

Depends on if we are talking about +/- or Real +/-, which factors in more individual performance...

It's not that he doesn't want to play defense, it's that his size makes it hard for him to be a good defender at the NBA level.

despite his weaknesses...Ish is a solid NBA player. He is essentially a replacement level NBA player, worth roughly 1/3 of a win per year. Nothing wrong with that and certainly exceeded my expectations of him when he left Wake.

Sure, but it's a pretty dumb statistic to use with Ish. He either plays when better players are injured or plays on teams that do not have particularly good players.
LOL. His size might not help, but Ish has never been a particularly good defender, IMO.
But I'm with df07 - It's pretty fucking awesome that a Deac is sticking in the NBA. I hope that he's able to get a bit more comfortable as his career continues because dude deserves it.

no matter how you look at it, he has had a nice stretch with the sixers
on a historically bad team, advanced stats aren't going to be pretty, but he has been playing pretty damn well
the most impressive thing to me is that he's actually added a decent midrange game

He hits his free throws now too lol. When the other team gets a T he is the one the coach lets shoot the free throw...he's put in some work
