hmm i think thats incorrect surely lebron is the top lebron in the league

i think we need to prepare ourselves for the day when lebron is not LEBRON at all

seems like we're there. they prob expanded it to top 30 just to get him in there haha

tonight duncan robinson broke the heat franchise record for consecutive games played w/ 175

good shooter

Later tonight Curry will likely be 1st on both of these lists

Most 3s Ever
1. Ray Allen 2,973
2. Steph Curry 2,972
3. Reggie Miller 2,560

Highest 3P% Ever*
1. Stephen Curry 43.1%
2. Kyle Korver 42.9%
3. Steve Nash 42.8%
*Min. 2,500 3PA (158 players)https://t.co/Ty38qkvN1p

aw look at all those baby faces

cuet lil guys. also a classic celebration doing the weird shimmy and completely ignoring drays hi5

the steph zone

jokic's numbers this year are just insane. the year AFTER winning MVP by a comfortable margin:

- most points per 100 possessions in his career
- most FTA/100
- most 3 pointers/100 (by a lot)
- most rebounds/100 (by a lot)
- fewest fouls/100
- highest FG%
- at or above career averages for 3PT%, assists/100

I don't subscribe to stathead but apparently only 3 players have averaged 35 points/100, 15 rebounds/100, and 10 assists/100. jokic currently is at 40.3/20.9/11.1

lol poor joker, and steph

Tell us: Who is the best current player in the NBA?

lmao

lol

a bunch of crusty dudes who dont even watch the game any more

its so clearly kd/steph/jokic/giannis in any order and then a drop off to whoever else

putting KD and giannis 1-2 is totally defensible. there’s just the one that really sticks out….

Anthony Edwards tonight: 38 Points 5 Rebounds 67% FG 10 Threes

The Lad is having some fun

The NBA 3PT shooting landscape is multi-faceted

⬆️⬅️ Good Shot Making, Low Shot Quality
⬆️➡️ Good Shot Making, High Shot Quality
⬇️⬅️ Poor Shot Making, Low Shot Quality

dovetails with the recent ringer & athletic articles about how you can’t simply shot quality your way into good offense anymore bcuz every team knows to hunt threes and dunks/lay ups so more value is being placed on players who can consistently make “low quality” shots

obvs a lot of value in being able to consistently create ok shots too

its crazy everyone who agrees steph is the greatest shooter but i still feel like its underrated how much better he is than everyone else

isaiah thomas and talen horton tucker shot 2-24 and 0-14 from three last night. combined six points, four assists and three rebounds in 57 minutes

THT has been completely awful this year & may singlehandedly rank the lakers season given the guys they let go or didn’t acquire in order to keep him

tank*

Wasn’t he the reason they didn’t get hield?

no i thought that lebron just advocated for the westbrook deal instead of the hield deal

yeah. but they did choose him over caruso and reportedly declined to acquire kyle lowry at the deadline last year bcuz they didn’t want to include THT

yeah, those decisions aren't looking amazing

yah i was thinking of the lowry one. they would be infinitely better with lowry instead of russ

yes

The chart graphically shows that Dame has been having a horrible start to his season, up until a couple of games ago, AS ANYONE PAYING ATTENTION ALREADY KNEW. Amazing to me how the tweeted responses suddenly decide that Dame's worst ever run of games means he has never been anything but a pile-of-crap player. Hmmmph. Casuals.

dame's inability to get to the finals has put him in a space where nonfans don't understand his talent level

not a lot of guys get to the finals tbf (mainly lebron and steph and, in the past, tim "b." duncan)

the b stands for bargain

Cam Reddish dropped 34 on 6/10 from 3 in a really awful game

Keita Bates-Diop is the first player in Spurs franchise history to drop 30+ points on 100% shooting.

30 PTS
7 REB
11-11 FG
3-3 3P

Only 4 other players have done it since 2000.

just how they drew it up

I would simply make all the shots

That's box scorigami!
per Bball-Ref that's the first 0-10-10 game in NBA history. https://t.co/gPc3EGVqUg pic.twitter.com/KErQtEEX05

— Todd Whitehead (@CrumpledJumper) December 27, 2021

Undrafted Heat rookie Omer Yurtseven with 16 points, 15 rebounds in a win

That 0-10-10 seems like something Dray or Rondo or Kidd woulda done at some point but i guess not

Youngest players in the NBA with a +/- better than +4.2

1) Evan Mobley: 20 yrs old, +5.1
2) Darius Garland: 21 yrs old, + 7.4
3) Jordan Poole: 22 yrs old, +5.4
4) Jarrett Allen: 23 yrs old, +5.4
5) Lauri Markkanen: 24 years old, +5.6

p fucked up how the cavs just improv'd their way into a good team

nuggets net rating with jokic on the floor = +10.0
nuggets net rating without jokic on the floor = -15.0

its crazy how good he is and how bad the rest of that team is right now, not fair 2 judge with their #2 and #3 best players out, but damn. he shd be mvp again but unless they have a better record ppl will sleep on him bc he won it last year.

jokic having one of the best seasons ever, prob not one of the best thirds of seasons, but you know if he keeps it up
