Not really surprising at all but when Boston media is reporting on something I assume it's coming from the Celtics, even when they go out of their way to say their source is NOT THE CELTICS https://twitter.com/SteveBHoop/status/1139288332914110464?s=20

I saw a post on Facebook comparing the first six seasons of Arenas vs Curry and the numbers were eerily similar. Can someone with more bball ref skill show me the comp?

Peak Gil is probably a little underrated now but Steph's career 3pt% is like 7 percent better than any Arenas season. I can't get the link to work on my phone but I ran it and basically they have comparable pts/reb/ast numbers but Steph is way more efficient.

I’m phoneposting but the answers shouldn’t surprise you Steph takes many more three pointers as a % of FGs (33 as a rookie to 48 in his sixth year), teammates rely on his assists more, he uses fewer possessions, and he turns it over much more (which just from the territory of playing more like a PG and less like a combo guard, which is no shade at Arenas, just different playstyles) Arenas’s numbers were WAY closer to Kyrie’s

humpthewind posted:I wonder if the number of kobe assists Gil created helped close the assist gap The Wizards got 12.8 OREB/100 pos in 06-07 above the league median of 12.2. Your post establishes as law that this advantage is due to Gil and no one else, so if you consider an OREB to be worth one point, that’s a marginal 0.6 points via Kobe assists/100 pos above the average team. Let’s assume he only assists on 2s to make it easier, so that’s .3 assists per 100 that Gil DESERVES to have tacked on to that season. That takes him from 7.7 to 8.0. Curry had 11.6/100 in his sixth seasons but we’re arguing in bad faith since it’s the internet so let’s compare that to his rookie year 7.8 assists/100 instead. A loving CHUMP NUMBER. Gil easily wins again You also have to account for him being held back by that hideous mid-2000s Wizards logo

Masai trampled the Knicks twice on his way to building a contender and a champion Give that man a blank check and he’d fix the Wizards

Masai on the Wizards would be able to trade Wall and a second round draft pick for the Empire State Building with free shipping for it to go on the national mall

Welcome Warriors fans. So many good moments over the years, and perhaps still more to come for you in the future. No one is ever going to give the Warriors sympathy for this, so I hope you don't look too hard for it, and also I know at times like this, y'all perhaps know more than anyone that silver linings are not welcome so I won't give them to you. And to all who fished with me this offseason, it's been a joy that we've mostly had calm, playoff poster free discussion for the past few months and I thank you all for that.

He can run, and make crazy crosscourt passes, he can defend and rebound. He can not run an offense in the half court and he cannot shoot or score at the basket

also i know he is not good on defense and isn't a great facilitator but zach lavine gets buckets and that seems really undervalued here.
