I should never have ventured into this thread. ;) High expectations can make our experiences of a player excruciating.
18 vs. 14 points is 126% higher. I'd be very careful how I interpret these numbers. Let's look at the numbers. Ball's 279th in points per 100...
The per100 possession stats do bear out what KB is saying a bit. Lonzo as rookie: 14-10-10 (excellent); Kidd as rookie: 18-11.5-8 (better scorer,...
Love the hard-hitting analysis. There’s a Randle thread just below. Do you, man.
He has a nice four-game streak going. 22&7, good shooting. 10 dimes, 1 to today.
If you could fix these dudes, you’d make tons. Btw, shouldn’t they both be shooting under hand? Shouldn’t every sub 75 shooter be going underhand?
I know I'm a scumbag, but you're right. And from the field. I'm looking at this situation like this: Fultz actually has ridiculous talent. The...
MORE IMPROVEMENT NEEDED Brandon Ingram 15.2, 2.0, 4.1 (21.3) {-4.0} Vs. 25.3 -Not looking like a success so far. Again, there's a lot to adapt...
Cardinals suck. Raiders suck. The Raiders suck a bit more, but how much more? I've got Cardinals 24-18. The line is currently Arizona -5.5. I'd...
Gotcha. I did have him in my top 10 for that draft, but he was behind Ball and Fox
There’s a reason the first round contracts are as long as they are. Smith is shooting better, but he’s down everywhere else. I’ll give him time.
I’m becoming more convinced that they didn’t in Smith, so that’s good for them.
Good luck to your kid though. Better shooter than I am!
The difference between a 13 and 20 year old is that the 20 year old has so many reps already just more shooting won’t necessarily make a...
Some do improve. Some don’t. And if a player shoots a career high (to that point) in year 1, how often do they continue to shoot at that clip?...
FG% 45% was the median FG% two seasons ago (when I gathered the data) 41% is one Standard Deviation below 49% is one SD above Below that or above...
Rap battle.
I’ll show you standard deviations when I get to my office.
Kuzma is a bad shooter. He couldn’t shoot in college, and he can’t shoot in the NBA. At least from three (and mostly from the line).
I love your hypocrisy, man. Keep killing it at life. I wish you the best.
