Best Practice tip of the week: Getting clients to pay
Asked and Answered By John W. Olmstead, MBA, Ph.D, CMC Q. These economic times have been challenging for our firm at best. A major problem for us is collecting our client receivables. Do you have any suggestions? A. Regardless of whether economic times are good or bad, cash flow is always a matter of prime concern for law firms. With it taking in general 3-4 months to convert client work to cash anything the firm can do to speed up the collection cycle is always desirable. Here are a few ideas: 1. Do everything you can to keep receivables from going out to 90 days. Receivables aged one month are 93.2% collectable; three or more months are 72.3% collectable, and one year or more are 28.4% collectable. 2. Call - don't waste time with mailing follow-up letters. 3. Treat collection calls as an extension of client service. Calls should be treated as client service calls - not collection calls. 4. Caller should be someone other than the attorney who did the work for the client, qualified staff member or outsourced Accounts Receivable Account Manager. 5. Calls should be made by a trained Accounts Receivable Account Manager with client-friendly people skills. 6. Calls should be made on each account as soon as it reaches the due date. 7. Accept credit cards and offer it as a payment option. 8. Discount bills when necessary if it will expedite payment and engineer payment plans. 9. Diary, calendar, and follow-up. 10. Consider outsourcing to an Accounts Receivable Account Manager - not a collection firm. John W. Olmstead, MBA, Ph.D, CMC, is a past chair and member of the ISBA Standing Committee on Law Office Management and Economics. For more information on law office management please direct questions to the ISBA General ListServ, which the John and other committee members reviews, or view archived copies of The Bottom Line Newsletters.

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: What caused the car to stop at 80ks an hour could it be carbon build up. on 2009 Subaru Impreza
My wifes Impreza at 80 km/h slowed down and stopped, the cam shaft pulley broke. Subaru put it down to carbon build up and too many short trips. Only 4 years old and 26,000 ks. It has been seviced on time every time. Subaru will pay for all of the costs which we are grateful for. what is the chance of this happening again? My wife want to buy another car, kind regards Derek {Delboy}
Here is my opinion and mine alone, could be wrong, if you get another ride get another make!! Worked on a bunch of these over the years. Personally I think they have gone down hill. Dealer (Subaru) gave you a poor excuse I think. Oh, that gear (pulley) is a composit material, not entirely metal. Head gasket leaks are a problem as well, later on. They are just not consistent. Sorry but that is just the way I feel about this make! As stated may be entirely wrong, hope I am!

Industry Insights
The U.S. motor vehicle sensors market is expected to gain momentum owing to government initiatives for passenger safety and security. Motor vehicle sensors have increasingly become an important part of automobiles, which detect physical parameters such as speed and heat and take preventive measures in case of any danger.
Increasing demand for automobiles may positively impact market growth over the forecast period. Strict legal and regulatory standards have mandated inclusion of sensors in a vehicle, which is further estimated to drive the U.S. motor vehicle sensors market. For instance National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) established Federal motor vehicle safety standard (FMVSS) in 2005 which mandates installation of the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) capable of identifying when vehicle tires is significantly under-inflated. Additionally, rising consumer awareness for safety and environmental awareness is also expected to favor market growth over the forecast period. High implementation cost may hinder U.S. motor vehicle sensors market growth over the next six years.
U.S. motor vehicle sensors market by product (USD Billion), 2012 – 2020
Product Insights
Physical property, process variable, proximity & positioning, chemical property sensors are major product categories in the U.S. motor vehicle sensors market. Sensor heavy systems are used for various applications in vehicles including tire pressure monitoring, cylinder deactivation, electronic stability control, direct fuel injection, roll-over protection and variable-valve timing systems etc.
Physical property sensors are used to monitor intrinsic physical properties of a single material or medium such as moisture, temperature and pressure etc. For example, General Motors Corporation GM Oil-Life System determines when to change the oil and filter based on various operating conditions such as operating temperature and engine revolutions and other factors that affect the oil change intervals. Proximity and positioning sensors are used for electronic stability control in information display and a control. The information display alerts the driver of the vehicle that are approaching vehicle within a threshold distance. They are also used in steering systems to prevent skidding.
Application Insights
Key application segments include engine & drivetrain, safety & security and emission control sensors. Engine and drivetrain sensors are expected to be the key application segment over the forecast period. They have various uses including pedal monitoring to make air/fuel mixture adjustment, air flow monitoring and speed monitoring, etc. Additionally, they are also used to monitor magnetic fluid level along with air, HVAC, coolant and transmission temperature monitoring. Strict emission control legislation is expected to drive the emission control sensor demand. They are used to reduce combustion temperatures and reduce emissions. Safety and security sensors are used to monitor wheel speed, occupant position, and tire inflation, etc. For instance, Jaguar F-type uses these sensors for blind spot monitor and closing vehicle sensing designed to alert the driver to the presence of another vehicle in an adjacent lane by providing a visual warning indicator in the door mirror.
Competitive Insights
Key vendors in the U.S. motor vehicle sensors market are Denso Corporation, General Electric, Delphi Corporation, Bosch, Agilent Technologies, Johnsons Controls, Northrop Grumman, Honeywell international, Rockwell Collins and Tyco International etc. Ford Motors and GE have together developed sensors to monitor electric vehicles battery life. GE is expected to develop sensors for world of Formula One racing vehicles. While racing, F1 car sensors need to survive extremes of heat, acceleration, shock and vibrations. Additionally, these sensors also need to be lightweight in order to prevent adverse vehicle performance.

Conversations with Jeri: Reflections on Lesson 6
3/28, Jeri to Lehua:
>> YAY! This is exactly the place I was looking for you to be. It happened to me, too. Fun, isn't it? <<
That's what's so great because it is fun too!!! All of a sudden your brain starts going into overdrive and you're telling yourself, well, we could do this and that and this and that (gggg).
Well, I've printed out the next lesson, most likely I won't get to it till tomorrow as we're getting ready to go and celebrate Tom's birthday--I guess I can give him one evening (gggg).
HAH, I couldn't stand it, I completed it. Wow, how did you tell the little "hand" to do that on a specific area of the picture???? I'm totally awed by this!! While I'm waiting for my "next lesson" I'll start looking for a good picture of Big Rack so he can be famous (gg). Oh, the spacing came out beautiful on the poem also.
You do realize "I'm Addicted Now"!!!!

Acquisition is the first book in the Takeover Duet.
My Rating:
Favorite Quotes:
She's the female version of Rocky minus the heavyweight titles and muscles.
I don't want to die. Not like this. I figured I'd live to be old and feeble, forgetting who I was and dribbling my mashed potatoes down the front of my frilly shirt the nurses at the old-age home would dress me in.
My Review:
Acquisition was a busy and sensual story of romantic suspense featuring dueling CEOs. Antonio and Lauren were corporate competitors gearing up for a hostile takeover, which was botched. But before they knew each other across the table in the boardroom, they had met by chance in a bar while using the aliases of Lou and Elizabeth. Sizzle and snap – my Kindle actually seemed to be sweating, although that may have been from being held in my hot little hand as Lou and Elizabeth had death-defying nuclear reactor level sexual chemistry as they repeatedly scorched the sheets during their encounter. Holy moly!
While Lou and Elizabeth left singe marks on the ceiling, being Lauren and Antonio was far less satisfying. Antonio was rich, powerful, and cryptic, and used to getting what he wanted and he had become quite captivated with the prickly Lauren – who just wasn't having it. Antonio being a greedy and successful corporate raider, wanted both Lauren and her company, and doggedly pursued both. He offered Lauren a tempting and salacious deal; the name of the mole in her organization in exchange for a weekend of debauchery… What to do, what to do?
Before détente could be achieved a heinous cliffhanger was thrown, although I was more or less expecting one since the book was labeled as a duet, but still, gah! I despise them! ;( So I am on the hook and waiting for Merger – Takeover Duet #2, which sounds promising for a positive end result and is scheduled for release in December. An early Christmas gift from the delightfully bawdy Chelle Bliss.

House bill No. 2369 was passed into law during the 2003 legislative session. The bill amends K.S.A. 2002 Supp. 75-37,105 and was intended to facilitate and improve the existing employee suggestion program. This policy statement is intended to implement the legislative intent and to create an incentive for WSU employees to submit suggestions that result in cost reductions through increased efficiencies or improvements in the operations of WSU.
Policy Statement:
A WSU employee whose suggestion is approved and implemented shall receive a "monetary employee award" and an "employee suggestion bonus" as permitted by law and as outlined in these policy guidelines. The following steps outline the WSU Employee Suggestion Program process:
Step 1
An employee submits a suggestion to the Director of Human Resources using the University's Employee Suggestion Program form. The Director of Human Resources will provide a copy of the submitted suggestion to the Division Vice President responsible for the unit.
Step 2
The Vice President for Administration and Finance and the University Review Committee shall determine whether or not the suggestion should be implemented and estimate the cost reduction associated with the suggestion. The Review Committee will be composed of the Dean or Director of the unit affected by the suggestion, the Director of Human Resources, and a person appointed by the President. The Division Vice President responsible for the unit must also approve the suggestion.
Step 3
An employee who makes a suggestion for cost reduction that is adopted by the University will receive a monetary employee award at the time of adoption. The monetary employee award will be 2.5% of the estimated cost reduction, as certified by the Director of Human Resources and Vice President for Administration and Finance, up to a maximum of $3,500.
Step 4
Twelve months following implementation, the employee will be paid the employee suggestion bonus component. The employee suggestion bonus is the difference between the monetary employee award (as described in Step 3) received by the employee and 10% of the actual cost reduction. The employee must still be employed by the University at the end of the twelve month period to be eligible for the employee suggestion bonus.
Step 5
The maximum amount an employee may receive under the Employee Suggestion Program is 10% of the actual cost reduction verified at the end of the 12 month evaluation period, including the amount received for the monetary employee award when the suggestion was approved, up to a maximum total amount of $37,500.
Amounts received pursuant to the Employee Suggestion Program (monetary employee award and employee suggestion bonus) are considered regular earnings and will be added to the employee's paycheck.
This policy shall be included in the WSU Policies and Procedures Manual and shared with appropriate constituencies of the University.
The Vice President for Administration and Finance shall have primary responsibility for publication, dissemination and implementation of this University policy.
Effective Date:
November 21, 2003

Firstly i wish her a full recovery
Then i really hope she has the power to sue the beach club.
I also dont understand the insurance policy here. In my country the insurance still need to pay fully for the treatment and then the insurance would deal with the beach club, respectevly its owner.
After all the money involved here isn't that much (from the insurance company's perspective)
A greedy self-serving uncooperative SE Asian resort owner???
What's next, a pirate who steals??
Anywayzers, it's good that she got the work done she needed and that she'll be OK.
There should be a total boycott of Finn's.
Aussie mate but who's checkin.
"SE Asian" referring to the resort, not the owner, Forrest.
And I ain't your "mate"
Of course, they're ALL Ozzboes, that goes without saying.
Except for Rodman's dad, which is kind of worse than being Australian.
Welll ahh, uhm… ah. .whatever.
Yeah, a boycott of this place is definitely in order. Not that I would have gone there in the first place. Places next to the beach with huge swimming pools don't make any sense to me.
Yeah but you can't beat the live acrobat show
Yes to the boycott but . uhh. big swimming pools right next to the beach? Let's see. The 4 seasons Kona that we just spent our belated honeymoon at had a big large swimming pool right next to the ocean, several large pools in fact. And the Halekulane (spelling?) in Honolulu had a very nice pool right next to the ocean in Waikiki.
And to be honest, it was much nicer swimming in the pools because the ocean was rough, dangerous due to currents and jellyfish and sea urchins and what not at the 4 seasons. The ocean at the halekulane was better but still there was a side ways current there that dissuaded most from venturing in any distance. And the pool was a known thing. No sharks, no jellyfish , no stepping on sea urchins. So yes, it makes total sense.
OK, Mr. Landlubber. Hey everybody, let's go to the beach! So we can swim in a pool and choke on chlorine and toddler pee… To each his own, of course. I'm sure the water near the beach is full of raw sewage, so it's probably an even bet.
Well the waters off the halekulani was ah. a bit not as nice. But the waters off the 4 seasons at Kona was pristine. Just rough. But pristine waters. And besides learn to swim with your head above water at all times.
Its a huge operation there. Big name DJs regularly playing, Macy Gray played recently. They're acting very quickly to remove any negative social media posts.
Who? Is she a terrorist?
I guess I believe you, I mean, I do, but, I don't know, man, do people still "go to Bali"?? Didn't that get left behind in the 90s?
Apparently, lots of Aussies are stuck in the 90s.
Good catch. I was going to book her for my friend's bat mitzvah. Guess I'll call Milli Vanilli instead.
Ace of Base not available?
Ace of Base without Jenny Ace just aren't the same.

Her screams are pretty good although I doubt the producers of these talent shows looked too kindly on them when editing for the broadcast (we all know they tamper with the audio before broadcast).

The global healthcare EDI market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.1% from 2017 to 2022, to reach USD 3.77 billion by 2022.

"Healthcare payers segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during2017 to 2022."
Based on end user, the healthcare EDI market is segmented into healthcare providers, healthcare payers, medical device & pharmaceutical industry, and pharmacies.

I was looking at that car again, the same one that shattered all my dreams. It glinted in the full moon, it's headlights emitting a strange eerie glow. I could feel it winking at me and saying, "Yes, it was me. What can you do about it?"16Please respect copyright.PENANAhYJsfWoDSu

The house was dark and at peace. The only sound I could hear from inside was the mewing of a cat. Why was I even here? Am I supposed to go through the house, looking for clues, like some sort of ghost detective? I didn't know…But I wanted desperately to be there, to once again look at the three people who could have caused my death.16Please respect copyright.PENANAofn3cmNA6T

The first bedroom that I walked into was a deep shade of red. It made me feel oddly uncomfortable. The black desk on the corner was piled up with notebooks, A4 sheets and sketch pens.

Everyone except me.16Please respect copyright.PENANAJfVWWrXuDY

My heart ached and I felt the sudden urge to sob. I still remembered walking into school the Monday after the big birthday party to learn that I had been the only one not invited. He…He avoided my eyes all day, while everyone else talked in loud, over-the-top voices about the party. Odd…They weren't so loud about it before the party took place. Only my teeny tiny circle of friends stood by awkwardly, refusing to answer my question of why they didn't tell me about it.16Please respect copyright.PENANAL0DDKuKqIv

I shook myself. What was the damn point crying about it now? I wasn't the nerdy highschool girl anymore. But…Wasn't it strange that I would give anything in the world now to be that outcast, nerdy, picked-on, girl? She may not have had many friends but at least she was alive. She had everything that I want now.16Please respect copyright.PENANAjB2xp7Yz0Z

There was a time when monolithic CMSs satisfied everyone's needs. They offered the luxury of being able to quickly create and deploy websites. Best of all, they could be handled by users who had little technical expertise or design skills. This was a small business marketer's dream, and even medium and large organizations found value in CMSs that coupled the content repository with the ability to manage webpage experiences.

Open source still has a few gaps to fill to go mainstream
I've been pondering the why of the issue regarding mainstream Linux adoption. Recently an article was spread around (and then copied and pasted onto every mainstream site that pushes Linux) that Big Business has embraced Big Linux. And it's true. The enterprise LOVES it some Linux — and with good reason. But once you go below the oceanic waters of enterprise computing, and into the SMBs, you start seeing Linux being used less and less. Why? I strongly believe there are two reasons:
* It's not what they are given
* There are still a few gaps to fill
I'm going to be honest with you — if a small to mid-sized business said, "We're switching to Linux," it would happen and probably happen with little to no issue. Problem is, not many businesses are saying that. So the end users aren't being given Linux to use. That is, in my opinion, a reason driven by a bigger issue — gaps in the usability space.
These gaps aren't glaring, but they are enough to affect mainstream adoption. And I firmly believe that, should the distributions and developers (and anyone else involved with open source) take a long, hard look at the list I'm about to offer, they could easily fill those gaps and Linux would enjoy an adoption rate previously unheard of. Let's take a look at those gaps. You've certainly read about them here and there before — maybe not all in the same location. You may also have experienced one or more of these gaps yourself.

NBA AM: A Look At The 2019 NBA Draft Class
With the NCAA basketball season gearing up, here is an early look at some of the names to watch as it gets rolling.
A Look At The Top Of the 2019 NBA Draft Class
With the college basketball season getting ready to get underway, it's time to take our first look at the names to watch in what could be a very flat 2019 NBA Draft class. While the draft class always evolves as the season goes on, there are a few names that look more likely to be sure things than others, and here are a few:
Luka Dončić – Real Madrid
The 6-foot-7 Dončić looks to be the front-runner of the 2019 class. While not a college player, Dončić has been on the NBA radar for some time and took part in NBA preseason last year when the Oklahoma City Thunder faced off against Real Madrid.
Dončić is considered by many to be the next can't miss International player, with some labeling him a basketball prodigy. Dončić has spent his offseasons training in the U.S. at the famed P3 Performance Training Center in Santa Barbara, so he is no stranger to the NBA style of play or how hard you have to train got be great at the NBA level.
Dončić is listed as a forward but tends to play with the ball in his hands a lot for Real Madrid, where many label him as more of a point forward. Dončić is a polished shooter, with the game all the way to the three-point line.
It will take something pretty special (or tragic) to happen for Dončić not to be the top overall player this June. He is absolutely the name to watch.
Michael Porter Jr. – Missouri
Of all of the college players with a shot at a top-three pick in June, the 6-foot-10 Michael Porter Jr. might be the best of the bunch. With an amazing set of skills, Porter has been the star of the high school all-star circuit and has cemented himself as a very serious NBA prospect. The problem with Michael Porter Jr. isn't anything he does on the basketball court, it a reputation that's followed him for a while that he may not have the right circle of influence.
In what has become all too common in the AAU/high school, players have started to amass a circle of influence that's been clouding the star of some of the top players.
Dallas' Dennis Smith Jr had similar concerns last year, which was a big contributing factor to him sliding to the Dallas Mavericks and the ninth pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.
For Porter, NBA teams are going to want to see him shake some of the labels around his game and gauge how coachable he can be at the next level.
From a pure talent and skill point of view, though, Porter might be the next best talent in the eventual 2019 NBA draft pool, it will be interesting to see if Porter and a very solid recruiting class can get Missouri into the elite of the college basketball. It would go a long way towards quieting the noise around him that doesn't have anything to do with the game.
Marvin Bagley III – Duke
If Porter isn't the guy for whatever reason, the next guy looks to be Duke's Marvin Bagley III. He re-classified this summer making him eligible for this season and one of the younger prospects on the board. At a legit 6-foot-11, Bagley has the whole package for a big man. He is an incredible athlete that can score from everywhere. He is explosive around the basket and a lethal at-the-rim scorer.
Given Duke's loaded recruiting class, Bagley looks likely to be playing deep into March this year, and that could bode well for his eventual draft stock.
Collin Sexton – Alabama
Alabama's Collin Sexton looks to be the top point guard prospect in the eventual 2019 NBA Draft class. He is a legit 6'2 and as cat quick as they come. Sexton was a star on the high school All-Star circuit and looks to have the whole pack for an NBA caliber guard.
The big thing Sexton is going to need to show at the next level is that he can be a playmaker as well as a scorer. The High School/AAU platform has shown that Sexton can score at will, NBA teams are going to want to see him create for others.
It's no secret that the NBA is built around point guard play, and like Smith Jr, who is flourishing in the NBA with the Mavericks. Sexton could be equally as potent, especially after a season playing for Avery Johnson at Alabama.
Miles Bridges – Michigan State
Surprisingly, Bridges opted to return for another season at Michigan State. Historically most players don't add to their draft stock returning to school, but in Bridges case, he could find himself towards the top of the class with a dominating season for the Spartans.
Bridges is more of a combo forward. The knock on his game is he is more of a tweener, with a limited outside game. If he can take over in his Sophomore season and prove he has improved as a perimeter threat, he could add some serious value to what many expected was 15-20 draft range in 2018.
The problem for Bridges is that scouts tend to latch on to an idea around a player and unless he shakes the label, it's generally viewed as a negative if a player does not improve.
Bridges has the potential to leap way up in his draft stock, which is pretty rare. The question is, is there another level to his game in college basketball?
Trevon Duval – Duke
Duke has a great recruiting class, but the enigma of the bunch may be guard Trevon Duval. A start for IMG and one of the top high school/prep players in the Nation, the buzz around Duval has dropped considerably. Most NBA scouts are eager to see how Duval handles being coached by Mike Krzyzewski.
Duval has all the tools to be an elite point guard prospect, but like Porter Jr, there are questions about his circle of influence and how much he wants to win at the college level.
With some many prospects looking past their college season into an eventual NBA career, scouts and executives seem to be interesting in seeing how Duval leads a team like Duke and how much latitude Coach K gives him throughout the season.
The one this to know about any future draft class at this point in the calendar is that everything is subject to change. However, history has proven time and time again that the top names on NBA scouting boards in November, usually end up being in the top 10 when the draft rolls around in June.
Once some of these guys log actual games, we'll start dropping our monthly NBA Mock Drafts, so stay tuned for that as the college basketball season ramps up.

Defensive Player Of The Year Watch – 11/17/17
Spencer Davies updates the list of names to keep an eye on and who's in contention for DPOY.
We're exactly one month into the season now, as the NBA standings have started to take shape headed into winter.
A couple of weeks ago, Basketball Insiders released its first Defensive Player of the Year Watch article to go in-depth on players that could compete for the prestigious award. Since then, there have been injuries keeping most of the household names out of the picture.
Guys like Rudy Gobert (knee) and Al-Farouq Aminu (ankle) have been or will be sidelined for weeks. Kawhi Leonard has yet to make his season debut recovering from a bothersome right quad.
While that isn't the best news for fans and the league at the moment, it's likely that those players will be just fine and return with the same impact they've always made. In the meantime, there are opportunities for others to throw their names in the hat as elite defenders. With new names and mainstays, here's a look at six healthy candidates.
6) Joel Embiid
Trusting the Process in Philadelphia was worth the wait. As polished as the seven-footer is with the ball in his hands on offense, he might be even more dangerous as an interior defensive presence.
One of ten players in the NBA averaging at least a block and a steal per game, Embiid makes a world of a difference for in limiting opponents. Through 14 games, the Philadelphia 76ers are allowing just 96.4 points per 100 possessions with him playing. Furthering that, he's the only one on the floor who dips the team's defensive rating below 100 and has the second-highest Defensive Real Plus-Minus rating (3.03) in the NBA.
5) Kristaps Porzingis
Like Embiid, it's been an incredible season for the one called The Unicorn. Before the season started, Porzingis stated it was a goal of his to accomplish three things—an All-Star game appearance, Most Improved Player, and Defensive Player of the Year.
So far, he's on the right track. Outside of being the league's third-highest scorer (28.9 points per game), the Latvian big man is hounding and deterring shot attempts nearly every time inside. According to SportVU data, Porzingis is allowing his opponents to only convert 35.1 percent of their attempts at the rim, which is the lowest by far among his peers seeing at least four tries per game. Oh, and when he's off the floor, the Knicks have a 112.4 defensive rating, which is 9.3 more points per 100 possessions than with him on.
4) Nikola Jokic
At the beginning of the season, it looked like the same old story with the Denver Nuggets defense, but their intensity has stepped up on that end of the floor for the past couple of weeks. Playing next to new running mate Paul Millsap has taken some getting used to, but it seems like the two frontcourt partners have started to mesh well.
Though it might not have been the case a season ago, the Denver Nuggets are a net -12.4 per 100 possessions defensively without Jokic on the court as opposed to a team-best 100.1 defensive rating with him on. A huge knock on the Serbian sensation last year and before then was his inability to defend. He's still got things to work on as a rim protector with his timing, but the progress is coming. He's seventh in the league in total contested shots (168) and has been forcing turnovers like a madman. Averaging 1.6 steals per game, Jokic has recorded at least one takeaway in all but two games.
3) Draymond Green
In the first DPOY watch article, the Golden State Warriors had been better off defensively with Green sitting. That right there should tell you how much we can really put into data in small sample sizes. It's changed dramatically since that point in time.
Without Green playing, the Golden State Warriors have a defensive rating of 105.4 as opposed to 98.4 on the same scale with him on the floor. His matchups are starting to grow weary of driving on him again, as he's seen less than four attempts at the basket. Currently, in DRPM, he ranks eighth with a 2.60 rating.
2) Al Horford
The Boston Celtics are still the number one team in the NBA in defensive rating. Horford is still the straw that stirs the drink for Brad Stevens. If you didn't see that watching that knockdown, drag-it-out game against the Warriors on Thursday, go back and watch it.
He has the highest net rating on the team among starters and is leading the team by altering shots and grabbing rebounds with aggressiveness we haven't seen since he played for the Atlanta Hawks. Ranking fourth in Defensive Box Plus-Minus and in DRPM, Horford is continuing to make his presence felt.
1) DeMarcus Cousins
Dominance is the word to describe Cousins' game. With a month-long absence of Gobert, he has a real chance to show fans and voters that his defensive side of him is no façade.
Next to his partner Anthony Davis, Boogie has kept up the physicality and technique of locking up assignments. The third and final member of this list averaging at least a block and steal per game, Cousins is at the top of the mountain in DRPM with a 3.13 rating.
The New Orleans Pelicans significantly benefit with him on the hardwood (102.3 DRTG) as opposed to him on the bench (112.7 DTRG). He's one of six players in the league seeing more than six attempts at the rim, and he's allowed the lowest success percentage among that group. He's also contested 193 shots, which is the second-most in the NBA.
Gregg Popovich Continues To Be The Gold Standard For Leadership
There are three guarantees in life: death, taxes and Gregg Popovich.
There are three guarantees in life: death, taxes and the San Antonio Spurs.
Okay, let's be honest, it's probably not the first time that you've heard that one, but it also won't be the last.
Behind the genius of Gregg Popovich, the Spurs have qualified for the NBA Playoffs 20 consecutive years. In hindsight, they appear to have been the only team to legitimately frighten the Golden State Warriors during their 16-1 playoff run last year, and this season, well, they've been the same old Spurs.
That's been especially amazing considering the fact that the team has been without Kawhi Leonard. Although Popovich recently said that Leonard would return "sooner rather than later," he himself admitted to not being certain as to what that meant.
Best guess from here is that Leonard will return within the next few weeks, but at this point, it's entirely fair to wonder whether or not it even matters.
Of course, the Spurs don't stand much of a chance to win the Western Conference without Leonard thriving at or near 100 percent, but even without him, the Spurs look every bit like a playoff team, and in the Western Conference, that's fairly remarkable.
"A team just has to play in a sense like he doesn't exist," Popovich was quoted as saying by Tom Osborn of the San Antonio Express-News.
"Nobody cares if you lost a good player, right? Everybody wants to whip you. So it doesn't do much good to do the poor me thing or to keep wondering when he is going to be back or what are we going to do. We have to play now, and other people have to take up those minutes and we have to figure out who to go to when in a different way, and you just move on."
In a nutshell, that's Popovich.
What most people don't understand about Popovich is what makes him a truly great coach is his humility. He is never afraid to second-guess himself and reconsider the way that he's accustomed to doing things. Since he's been the head coach of the Spurs, he's built and rebuilt offenses around not only different players, but also different philosophies.
From the inside-out attack that was his bread and butter with David Robinson and Tim Duncan to the motion and movement system that he built around Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, the latest incarnation of Popovich's genius isn't only the fact that he has survived without Kawhi Leonard, it's what could fairly be considered the major catalyst of it.
There are many head coaches around the league that take their roles as authority figures quite seriously, and that's why a fair number would have been threatened by one of their star players requesting that things be rebuilt in a way to maximize his potential.
So when LaMarcus Aldridge proactively sat down with his coach to discuss the ways that he felt he was being misused in the team's schemes, it wouldn't have come as a shock for Popovich to meet him with resistance.
Instead, he did the opposite.
"We have talked about what we can do to make him more comfortable, and to make our team better," Popovich acknowledged during Spurs training camp.
"But having said that, I think we are mostly talking about offense. Defense, he was fantastic for us. Now, we have got to help him a little bit more so that he is comfortable in his own space offensively, and I haven't done a very good job of that."
Just 11 days after those comments were printed, the Spurs announced that they had signed Aldridge to a three-year, $72 million extension.
Considering that Aldridge's first two years as a member of the Spurs yielded some poor efforts and relatively low output, the extension seemed curious and was met with ridicule.
Yet, one month later and 15 games into the season, the Spurs sit at 9-6. They've survived the absence of Kawhi Leonard and the loss of Jonathon Simmons.
Behind an offensive system tweaked to take advantage of his gifts, in the early goings, Aldridge is averaging 22 points per game, a far cry above the 17.7 points per game he averaged during his first two years in San Antonio.
I think not.
Death, taxes and the Spurs.
So long as Gregg Popovich is at the helm, exhibiting strong leadership while remaining amazingly humble, the Spurs will be the Spurs.
Sure, Kawhi Leonard will be back—at some point.
But until then, the Spurs will be just fine.
NBA AM: Atlanta's Dewayne Dedmon Is Letting Shots — And Jokes — Fly
Dewayne Dedmon's emergence has been an unexpected positive for the rebuilding Atlanta Hawks.
It's been a brutal season for the Atlanta Hawks, they're just already 3-12 with the worst record in the Eastern Conference.
Wednesday's franchise-record 46-point win over the visiting Sacramento Kings was a rare chance for Atlanta to have a laugh in the postgame locker room and reflect on things that have gone well, including hot shooting for the team and a potential breakout season for center Dewayne Dedmon.
The Hawks trail only the Golden State Warriors in three-point shooting at just over 40 percent. Prior to joining the Hawks, Dedmon had attempted only one three-pointer in 224 career games. As a Hawk, though, Dedmon is shooting 42 percent on 19 attempts. Atlanta coach Mike Budenholzer explained after Wednesday's game how his staff decided to encourage Dedmon to extend his range.
"You do your research and you talk to friends around the league, you talk to people who have worked with him and you watch him during warmups," said Budenholzer. "We had a belief, an idea, that he could shoot, he could make shots. We're kind of always pushing that envelope with the three-point line. He's embraced it."
Dedmon is currently averaging career-highs in points, rebounds, blocks and minutes, and set season-highs in points (20), rebounds (14) and assists (five) against the Kings. He's also brought an offbeat sense of humor that has helped keep the locker room loose despite the struggles. It became apparent early on that Dedmon was a different type of dude.
At Media Day, when nobody approached Dedmon's table and reporters instead flocked to interview rookie John Collins at the next table, Dedmon joined the scrum, holding his phone out as if to capture a few quotes.
"This guy's going to be a character," said a passing Hawks staffer.
Those words proved prophetic, as Coach Bud confirmed after Wednesday's win.
"He brings a lot of personality to our team, really from almost the day he got here," said Budenholzer. "I think he's getting more and more comfortable and can help the young guys and help everybody."
Dedmon took an unconventional path to the NBA. Growing up, his mother — a Jehovah's Witness — forbade him to play organized sports. Once he turned 18, Dedmon began making his own decisions. He walked on to the team at Antelope Valley College, a two-year school in Lancaster, Ca., before transferring to USC and eventually making it to the league.
His personality, which formed while Dedmon forged his own path, shone through in the locker room after the Sacramento win. Asked about conversations he's had with Budenholzer about shot selection, Dedmon turned to teammate Kent Bazemore at the adjacent locker.
"What's the phrase, Baze? LTMF?"
"Yep," Bazemore replied.
"Yeah, LTMF," Dedmon continued. "Let it fly. So he told me to shoot … let it go. I'm not going to say what the M means."
Amidst laughter from the assembled media, he explained that 'LTMF' is Budenholzer's philosophy for the whole team, not just part of an effort to expand Dedmon's game.
"Everybody has the same freedom," said Dedmon. "So it definitely gives everybody confidence to shoot their shots when they're open and just play basketball."
With the injury bug thus far robbing Atlanta of its stated ambition to overachieve this season, Dedmon's career year and team success from three-point range are two big positives.
Rebuilding or retooling can be a painful process. But with a unique personality like Dedmon helping keep things light in the locker room, Atlanta should make it through.
