    Just like last year, the stats board is littered with Clint Capela. "Playoff Clint" is a thing.

    The top 5 Playoff PER:
    1. Lebron James
    2. James Harden
    3. Anthony Davis
    4. Clint Capela
    5. Giannis Antetotounmpo

    Clint is number 1 in Offensive Rating, number 4 in Defensive Rating, number 3 in Win Shares. ETC...

    He turns 24 in 2 weeks. :D

    Clint is the perfect center for this type of team

    That is a nice page. Clint is a beast, we probably have to pay him max if we win it all, right?

    Also, Ariza leading big in TO% (he rarely turns the ball over). Reducing our TOs is our way to win this year. 4 of our players in the top 10 on this in 2018 playoffs.

    From another page, assists/TO (where higher is better) - look at Harden from last year to this year (not on this page BTW):
    In playoffs:
    Harden 2017: 1.58 (really bad)
    Harden 2018: 3.35 (3rd among player with over 35 assists through 7-9 games)

    Rockets will pay what the "market" dictates as he is a Restricted Free Agent. It is not what "a player deserves" as much as it is "what the market says he is."

    1.58 AST/TO would be bad for a pure passing PG, but when you factor out the turnovers added from all the scoring possessions harden took, 1.58 really isn't that bad. like 30 pts, 7 assists, ~4.5 TOs is fine. not great but not bad

    Again...

    11.5 rebounds, 3.3 blocks, 1.5 steals average in 4 games against the Jazz.

    KAT and Rudy Gobert = Demolished...
