NBA / 21 / 22 / FG / FT / 3PM / TO / BL / STATS

Slowest pace and right now a transition defense nearly twice as bad as the worst transition defense last season (Rockets).

thats bad

sorry I can't stop talking about ben simmons but thus far in 4 games he has committed 18 fouls and is 9 for 20 from the field. if his pf:fg ratio remains in the neighborhood of 2:1 probably not a good sign for the basketball nets of brooklyn

lol

The Lakers are off to the worst 3-point shooting percentage through 4 games in NBA history (min. 80 attempts).

If you look at the other teams on this list ...

nice graphic

Small sample size, but still a shocking stat:

Kevin Durant has the worst total plus-minus (-58) in the NBA so far this season.

Points are up quite a bit (110.6 to 113.7), but offensive rating hasn’t moved much (112 to 112.7) https://t.co/z9Di72nloz

pace up

Real culprit seems to be a slight jump in turnover rate (12.3 to 12.7) and pace (98.2 to 99.9)

Per cleaning the glass, average transition frequency is up from last year (15% to 16.2%)

We’ve found the answer lol

We might have a generational foul merchant on our hands

Most fouls drawn

Paolo Banchero: 43
Nikola Jokic: 39
Giannis Antetokounmpo: 38
Joel Embiid: 38
Pascal Siakam: 36
Kevin Durant: 35

On a per game level, only Giannis and Embiid drew more last season than Banchero is through six games.

crazy

top guys are all physical big men with good handles, and then kd whos not physical

paolo's averaging 23.5 and 8 so far, he's goooood

top guys are all physical big men with good handles, and then kd whos not physical

benn mathurin with 32 points on 8/17, 6/9 from 3, 10/10 on free throws.

this rookie class is rly rly good

him and haliburton are looking like a pretty nice backcourt

yeah i haven't watched a ton of either guy but they have some size and in theory could be a really nice fit

mathurin just has the juice, atheltic wing with a scorer's mentality and touch, him+hali are foundational players imo

totes

theres our guy

Cade Cunningham over his last 4 games:

27.8 PPG
8.3 RPG
7.5 APG
49.5% FG

He’s now averaging 23.1p, 6.1r, 6.8a on the season 🔥 pic.twitter.com/ZrU1XIIeql

Just one of those guys that’s totally in control all the time

him and ivey are looking like a pretty ideal fit

duren is gonna be good too, just a cool group overall

Yah

the biggest thing for them is gonna be finding wings who can play D to round out their roster. they def have a nice little group going there but if your two best players are guards you gotta pour everything into figuring out how you’re gonna play defense

who is 2023 evan turner?

christian wood has 0 assists in his last 4 games. and only 5 total on the season thus far.

21-10 and no assists tonight.

jokic 15-13-14 (and 10 turnovers)

What a list for Pascal to be on pic.twitter.com/sqAzSRoFoT
