xps re Zion: Players should have the option for 1:1 iso instead of free throws, opponent gets to choose their defender. Would be maximum entertainment

amazing that dan issel and elvin hayes are still so far up there. never hear anything about those guys.
― call all destroyer, Tuesday, 9 February 2021 18:25 (three years ago) link
yeah thought the same, of more specifically "who really is dan issel"
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 9 February 2021 18:26 (three years ago) link
Literally never heard the name!
― Rocky Thee Stallion (PBKR), Tuesday, 9 February 2021 18:31 (three years ago) link
Have to assume those numbers include ABA, I think Issel spent a good chunk of his career there (also Dr J so high up). Elvin Hayes is before my time but based on counting stats alone he definitely seems under-discussed. Before I became a basketball trivia junkie Elvin Hayes and Elgin Baylor were definitely in the “I always get those 2 mixed up” pile
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Tuesday, 9 February 2021 18:32 (three years ago) link
Issel is in the pile of guys who poured on points in the pre-Jordan era with like Terry Cummings, Kiki Vandeweghe, Jack Sikma, and more prominently Gervin, English, Dantley. Maybe instead of good-stats-bad-team guys they are good-stats-bad-era?
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Tuesday, 9 February 2021 18:35 (three years ago) link
Yah same had never heard of issel

issell was coach of the nuggets during my young collecting basketball cards days, so shiny skybox gold and a bad suit is how he lives in my memory

good call, that's what it is. it should really be nba totals only!

The reason the NBA and ABA merged was because the ABA succeeded in signing a high percentage of the available hoops talent and was regularly grabbing away high NBA draft picks by offering them more money. This resulted in the ABA producing a high quality, enjoyable product that compared well with the NBA. Those ABA stats are worthy of respect.

i respect them, and i also respect the fact that they weren't accumulated in the nba

― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Tuesday, 9 February 2021 18:53 (three years ago) link
they weren't accumulated in the nba
The ABA and the NBA became as one, eternally merged and subsumed into one another, like the Holy Trinity, but with only two components.

its disrespectful to dr j to not include the aba numbers, which is frankly beyond the pale

― lag∞n, Friday, 12 February 2021 15:07 (three years ago) link
His numbers are on par with his unanimous mvp season they just need to win more games.
― a nice controlled drift (Spottie), Friday, 12 February 2021 15:26 (three years ago) link
feel like if he keeps rolling and no one else does theyll prob win enough game for him to get it
― lag∞n, Friday, 12 February 2021 16:13 (three years ago) link
maybe but when there are multiple worthy options so much of the mvp race has to do with buzz and narratives, and Jokic and Embiid are winning big in that column right now
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Friday, 12 February 2021 16:20 (three years ago) link
kinda think its unlikely that embiid will continue to produce at current levels for the whole season, jokic on the other hand could even drop off some and still have a good case
― lag∞n, Friday, 12 February 2021 16:23 (three years ago) link
i'm hearing "the numbers" do not like jokic's defensive season at all.

eh defense shmeefense
― lag∞n, Friday, 12 February 2021 16:24 (three years ago) link
yeah Embiid's conditioning will get him in the end. remains to be seen whether mvp voters care about Joker's D
