If you want to see just how different the modern NBA is today than it was 10 years ago, look at the top 5 APG for the year.

1) Westbrook - PG - 10.3
2) Harden - SG - 9.0
3) Lebron James - F - 8.7
4) Draymond - PF/C - 7.3
5) Ben Simmons - PF - 7.2

Ben Simmons is a point guard though

Um his efg% on the season is 51% on 19.5 ppg after starting off the season slow. Jimmy Butler is averaging 22.4 on an efg% of 52%, is he also overhyped?

I mean if you wanna look at PER or WS Simmons is better but Donovan's USG is also 29% compared to his 23%.

USG% is a dumb stat to compare when Ben Simmons literally LEADS THE LEAGUE in touches per game. And he's behind only Westbrook, Harden, Wall, Walker, and Lillard in time of possession.

Also, we learned last year how important triple doubles are, and Ben has the most of any rookie since Magic and Oscar, therefore,

I made edit of the first quarter. I would have done the whole game, but then it wouldn't be an "edit" in any meaningful sense.

lmao

Bill Walton: Jusuf Nurkic! That's a big dude out there! That's the best I've ever seen him play!
Dave Pasch: This is the first time you've ever seen him play.
Bill Walton: Both of those things are correct.

e: "Defensive three seconds? They still have that rule?"

There's a chance I will be able to shake hands and have a few words with both Sam Hinkie and Mark Cuban sometime in the next week. What should I say or ask.

ask Sam if he agrees with me that Tony Wroten deserves another shot

Fake news. Someone started a rumor that he visited Malvern Prep, which is hilarious in it's own right if you know about Philly area prep schools.

Alaa believes everything he reads online

He is cool for mentioning players' b-ballref nicknames on broadcasts though
