2019/2020 = NBA > STATS

who da fuck is mo wagner

Precisely

he was kinda nasty at michigan, dollar store markanen vibes

harden 40ppg watch: 38.7

http://bkref.com/tiny/bONWz

can’t remember if I already posted this but there have been 17 2600-point seasons (harden had 2818 last year, 10th all-time). if he averages 38 and plays 79 games (one more than he played last year), he’ll finish with 3002. only wilt and MJ have broken 3000

the weird guy will do it

Cam Reddish down to 27.1 eFG% on the year.

Among the 229 players with 20 minutes per game, the next closest to him for the worst in the league is Jordan Poole at 34.5.

Yikes.

Didn’t Trae young start that bad last year?

Cam has looked gross but he’s keeping himself on the floor by playing decent D

39.5

will forever love jordan poole for his shot against houston in the 2018 ncaa tourney, but idk if anyone was really expecting him to excel right away.

i see now that post was about reddish, who turned 20 in september

nope did have a pretty rough stretch from deep tho https://www.espn.com/nba/player/gamelog/_/id/4277905/type/nba/year/2019

i think reddish was always gonna be a project, he got caught in a bad situation at duke w/ zion and RJ. it looks like he has a lot to learn about how to play basketball

i thought de'andre hunter made sense for them... getting a wing and defensive stopper to pair with trae. but i watch them now and wonder if they'd have been better off taking a player who can do more when the ball in his hands. hunter will almost def be very good on defense but if his offense maxes out at otto porter/oubre im not sure i'll be overly enthused.

I'm on the fence on both rooks. Cam has the nba body and good instincts, but sucks at putting the ball in the basket. Hunter has looked really solid on offense some games and not so much others. He's surprisingly good at getting to the basket, but a mediocre finisher. I'm willing to wait on both, but tempering my expectations.

pg 37pts in 20mins, a record

if he stays healthy harden will probably join wilt in the 1000 FTA club, too

i think im “getting back into harden” his antics demand attention

celtics mindset

interesting. kemba definitely is one of the lowest TOV/high usage dudes ever

http://bkref.com/tiny/0aVOF

Spurs on off numbers are really something

https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/SAS/2020/on-off/

the basic thing is the starters get smoked and then the bench come in and play ok

marco belinelli has been one of the worst players in the league but he leads the spurs in +/- bc he coattails off the other bench players

they had a similar problem last year iirc

those kemba team turnover stats are wild hes like the steve nash of not turning the ball over

Clint Capela is the first player to grab at least 20 rebounds in five straight games since Ben Wallace in 2003. The last player with six consecutive 20-rebound games was Dennis Rodman in 1995 (Rodman’s streak ended at seven). So much for the idea Russ would steal Capela's boards.

probably time to start playing derrick white with dejounte murray a little more

The San Antonio Spurs have 4 of the 30 worst defenders in the NBA, according to TPA defensive points saved.

Pop is starting three of them.

Rankings:

1. Forbes is the worst in the NBA.
14th worst: Patty
18th worst: Marco
30th worst: DeMar

seems not great

giannis did 24-19-15-3-1

only done once b4: http://bkref.com/tiny/5vOnx

James Harden has 3 of the top 5 spots for highest turnovers in a season. The other 2 spots are held by Russell Westbrook. No other spot in top 10 is from a season in the last 30 years.

haha thats great

dream team

they've both got to own the top 5 highest usage seasons as well i would imagine

yup

high usage and numerical turnovers go hand in hand

Mo Wagner currently leads the NBA in TS%. I think the wizards got him just for facilitating other teams’ trades

bertans is balling out too and they got him for for facilitating the signing of marcus morris which never happened

Embiid 0/11 and zero points in 32 minutes

Apparently the stats say Trae Young is the worst defender in the NBA. Something to work on

stands to reason

I wonder if it’s possible that someone could be the worst defender in the NBA and there’s nothing they can do about it no matter how hard they try
