This comment is amazing in hindsight. The main problem to parity in the NBA is poorly thought out restrictions by an overzealous ruling body,...
By the same logic: every stat on offense needs context, so all of them are useless. Yup. Even PPG is pace dependent. Might as well throw all...
Agreed on all counts How much defensive credit can one give to a player, when multiple good defensive players have a cumulative effect on...
If you can't come up with some statistical measure of defensive performance, it isn't because statistics haven't come far enough. The real...
Kobe fans wouldn't be fans if they had even a passing interest in statistics. I forgot how good Bynum was. So strange.

I hate ESPN as much as the next guy, but Wall really is one of the fastest end to end players while dribbling, and he is a great finisher as well.
This. What the hell are we paying the stats team for anyway?
One dude has clearly improved every year despite being injured, while the other never improved despite a relatively healthy early career. It...
He's worse when shooting in red arenas, and by a statistically significant margin.
The MVP is determined by the media. Let that sink in. They are arguably the most biased profession, exhibit extreme overconfidence, and have...
