NBA NUMB3RS 2020-21

in all seriousness guys I’d pitch in

oh sure i would too if it helped everyone out

honestly there's no way i'm paying for those subs on my own but as long as i don't have to do any administration and someone was up for creating like a shared email and password i would be happy to contribute towards them.

Some rando stats about the Maxey game (some impressive names, some less so):

ELITE COMPANY: Maxey became the 11th player in NBA history with at least 35 points, five rebounds and five assists in a game before his 21st birthday. LeBron James, Luka Dončić, John Drew, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Brandon Jennings, Antoine Walker, Trae Young, Devin Booker and Jamal Murray also did it.

COME ON, REFS: Maxey is the 15th player in NBA history to score 39 or more points without a free throw attempt. The others are Dale Ellis, Stephen Curry, Rick Barry, D’Angelo Russell, Mark Aguirre, Dennis Scott, George Gervin, Chuck Person, Paul George, Klay Thompson, Alex English, Wally Szczerbiak, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar & Hakeem Olajuwon.

IVERSON WAS PRETTY GOOD: Maxey is the fifth 76er with a 35-point, 5-assist, 5-rebound game in the last 20 years. Joel Embiid has had six, Jimmy Butler and Jrue Holiday one apiece and Allen Iverson had 54 of them.

HE’S JUST GETTING STARTED: Maxey is the eighth player in NBA history with 35 points, five assists and five rebounds in one of his first 10 career games. The others are Frank Selvy, Oscar Robertson, Geoff Petrie, Alvan Adams, Tom Gugliotta, Iverson and Jennings. Only Maxey and Jennings have done it in the last 20 years.

AND HE SHOT 55 PERCENT: Maxey shot .546 from the field, which is 13th-highest in 76ers history by a player scoring at least 39 points. He’s the 14th player in NBA history to score 39 points at the age of 20 or younger and shoot 55 percent from the field. The only 20-year-olds in history to score 39 points, shoot 55 percent from the field and add at least six rebounds and assists are James, Dončić and Johnson.

AND HE ONLY HAD TWO TURNOVERS: Maxey is the fifth rookie in NBA history to score 39 points with six or more assists and two or fewer turnovers. The others are James, Curry, Jordan and Donovan Mitchell.

Still no idea if he’s any good lol

yeah it's baffling. he puts up a line like that but also inspired the cavs to give up a first-round pick and take on taurean prince's contract so they could get jarrett allen.

he's the all time rebound percentage leader, higher than dennis rodman. but yeah, it's hard to say how much he actually helps you win.

trae young 4 points on 1-11 shooting

24 and 25 minutes over his last two games - whats the story there? ans both games were fairly competitive

3 of the 5 most efficient offensive games for any team this season have come against the Kings in the last 8 days.
Jan. 8 - TOR: 144 on 100 possessions
Jan. 13 - POR: 132 on 97
Jan. 15 - LAC: 138 on 96https://t.co/pvMKkPNMip

Love the theory that Trae started to suck once his idol (Steve nash) told the media what Trae was doing (ref baiting) wasn’t basketball.

damn that’s rough

well, in his first four games he shot 14, 17, 16 and 15 free throws. in his last 7 games he’s had one 15 FTA game vs the knicks otherwise he hasn’t shot more than 6 FTs in a game. so *something* has changed since nash complained whether it’s trae, or how he’s defended or how refs call him

prob injured

Yeah it’s more than the ft attempts. His little floater is way off and he looks tentative in the lane.

So far this season, 39 players are averaging 20+ points per game (min. five games played)

who the heck is keljin blevins?

no idea. just looked him up apparently a 2 way player for pdx

lol boban

Blevins is Damian Lillard's cousin, according to wiki

love that duncan robinson stat. has dude ever even stepped foot inside a 3 point line?

he’s social distancing

blevins’ story is kinda fascinating in that he sucks at basketball, his ceiling is sucking at basketball, and he was brought up to the big leagues bc he is dame’s cousin after averaging like 4 and 2 in the g league last year

lol duncan robinson knows that nobody gets paid based off of offensive rebounds

kawhi would disagree

amazing

interesting vuch is in that straight on 3 spot where the little guys usually are

Based on that graphic I conclude CJ McCollum is at least twice as good at scoring the basketball as any other player.

I confess I haven't watched a Wizards game in a good long while but I was surprised at Beal in that midrange spot. Just checked in bref and his shot profile is dramatically shifted this year from 3s to 2s. Only 26% of his shots are 3s, lowest of his career by far.

i watched a wizards game and it seems like beal is just kinda doing whatever having fun out there

not a bad way to be

i was listening to something and they were talking about why beal hasn't forced his way out yet and the point was made that it's fun to take all the shots and score 30 a game and do whatever you want out there.

vooch loves that shot

27/26 with 5 blocks for Capela

Colin Sexton with 18 points in about 3 1/2 minutes

clint capela with a points/rebounds/blocks triple double. 13/19/10.

nice

I love a steals or blocks trip dub. His stats have been pretty wild the last couple games

I wonder if anyone's had a 25-25 game followed by a blocks trip dub before. doubt it!

maybe wilt if they had been recording blocks then

538 updated their RAPTOR statz yesterday:

Mike Conley's really crushing it this year

big reason why jazz are cruising right now

Curry passed reggie for 2nd all time on 3s. Should catch ray next season or so.

It is his destiny.

41 pts 9 reb 5 asst on 14-20 FG, 12-14 FT from bam tonight

guys are putting up some pretty good numbers vs the nets who could have predicted

harden's points over the last 4 games: 34-21-19-12

boogie 28-17-5 !
