OK, but Giannis’s high PER is not because it is overrating his defensive contributions. PER generally undervalues the defense of good defensive...
And individual defense. And team success.
His per minute box score numbers? His current PER would be the highest on record.
When was the last time a player won MVP playing next to another top 5 player?
I don’t see LeBron winning MVP playing next to Anthony Davis.
It's essentially the same case as last year. Historically great per-minute box score numbers (possibly best ever), excellent defensive player,...
The letter reads like multiple authors had a hand in its writing. Almost like he had a staffer initially write it up, and then he went back over...
I understand, and that's why I said it's borderline. By a strict reading of the rules, you could say it's a travel because it appears he had...
Harden shoots 36% from 3. Slightly lower than his career average. Slightly higher than league average.
Hmmm. This is the official new wording: https://official.nba.com/rule-no-10-violations-and-penalties/ A player who gathers the ball while...

It’s dense to assume it must be a factor and ignore all the ways Harden is actually an incredibly unique player. Why should anyone think Perkins...
I never said they don’t play similar to some extent, but you worded it like they are essentially the same player to try to make your point. The...
40% of Harden’s scoring plays this year are ISOs, which is why off the spectrum of other players. For Luka, it’s 12%. Just one example that shows...
I also don’t wish to dwell on it too much, but the argument that there is a significant racial component to the criticism Harden gets is just...
Yes. Tone is one of the few things a trailer should communicate about a movie.
