Harden is arguably the best regular season player of the last 5 years (I’d say it is between him and Curry), but the playoffs are a different...
LOL — exactly. Was about to post the same thing. Are they purposely trying to make it as indecipherable as possible?
Giannis is at 27 ppg, 12.6 rpg, 6.0 apg, and 64% true shooting. No other player has ever had even 25 ppg, 12 rpg, 5 apg, and 60% true shooting....
Last 40 games we are 29-11. Games 26 through 65 last year, we were 30-10. That’s somewhat encouraging.
He got into some hot water last year when the Internet (including a bunch of people here) accused him of using an anti-Chinese slur while wishing...
Consider changing your username to Harden4lf, then.
Who's ahead of him at forward? Giannis PG Durant Kawhi ...? Maybe Griffin?
PPG is probably what people remember down the road. But it's not the best indicator of scoring prowess. The following table shows points scored...
I guess they figured the ball was over the cylinder? He got it on the way up, it looked like, so goaltending looks like a bad call.
It's also worth pointing out that in MJ's first MVP year, his stats were way beyond the competition whether you slice it up as per-minute,...
I understand. And that's a fair point to make in favor of Harden. A player accrues value by playing more minutes for his team.

Change it to per 25 minutes. Again, the point is to describe how active/productive the player is each minute they are on the floor. It's not about...
I thought I was clear that per minute numbers capture what would have been visually clear to them (or anyone else) when watching Westbrook on the...
It's not hypothetical. I don't care what Westbrook would be doing if he was playing exactly 36 minutes. That's not the point. The point is to...
Your truncation of their ppg, rpg, and apg seems to consistently favor one player over the other. Strange. Westbrook: 31.6 points -> 31 points...
I hear you. Giannis is not 20 wins better this year than last year, all else being equal. But the fact remains that he’s one of the top 2 or 3...
Lots of things effect the team. But credit for performance as far as player evaluation goes, IMO, should be determined based on the players who...
Coaching changes shouldn’t have any effect on how we assess value of a player.
If you’re counting second left step as 1, it’s a travel. The final right and left step would have to be simultaneous to count as a single second step.
