Harden was our highest usage offensive player. Any dip in his efficiency on that end, even if you call it “slightly down”, has a significant...
You have all sorts of excuses at the ready for removing literally all responsibility from the team’s best player, and highest usage player, on a...
Don't be dramatic. A 114 Offensive Rating would be his lowest efficiency since his rookie year. GmSc of 21.7 looks nice, but inflated somewhat by...
The Bucks are better, and Giannis is better.
If we can't hit 3-point shots at an above average clip, we're not going to win a championship. It's as simple as that. There is no other...
Does that help or hurt Harden? Who is this year's "Russell Westbrook"?
Harden's numbers at 11-14 mark: 30 ppg, 8.3 apg, 5.5 rpg, 2.1 spg, 5.8 tpg, 114 ORtg, 21.8 GmSc 17-18: 30.4 ppg, 8.8 apg, 5.4 rpg, 1.8 spg, 4.4...

Rules changes, in general, have been designed to make offenses more exciting to watch (not so much easier). Often that resulted in increased...
I don’t think so. The comparison would only be how effective the player was in their respective league. Imagining what the player would do if born...
The only way to compare players from different eras is to assess their performance relative to league average. A stat like PER does this. But even...
I could see an argument for 4, but 5?
Players practice 3-point shooting more, and offenses are designed to generate good 3-point looks more often. That explains the increase. Shooting...
The Bucks have been the better team all year. This is not surprising. Disappointing, but not surprising.
Maybe having to guard Giannis on the other end has something to do with it.
There are 11 different players this season who have scored 50 points. I think that’s a record. I think for stats comparisons the approach...
I don’t get what you’re trying to say here. Differences in minutes and pace were clearly mentioned. He had a chart showing a peak in pace in the...
