Why wouldn't they in this context?

I didn't bother to read through the pages of your argument. So unless you were talking about what a player averages every 40 minutes, I don't see how it's relevant.

Again I don't pay attention to metrics or advanced for any of the sports I follow. I am simple and like my stats that way.

So, which would you rather have; points/game, points/36, points/40? In context, they all say the same thing.

I think you mean fouls.

I will admit that you correctly identified that issue with Adams. Its improved but he still gets in foul trouble early in games and it has stunted his growth. I also think he has a bad rep and gets a lot of ticky tak fouls that will go away in another couple of years.
 
Harden vs GS this year.

Game 1- 8-24, 6 FT attempts, 22 points.
Game 2- 14-27, 4 FT attempts, 34 points.
Game 3- 4-15, 7 FT attempts, 12 points.
Game 4- 8-18, 16 FT attempts, 33 points.

1-2 good games, with the other being mainly at the FT line but yeah he murdered Klay.

Maybe im right, who freaking knew.
 
Thunder look real good right now. Hopefully this isn't like most of the season where they fall back down to a mediocre team.

An idea of KD's impact: The last 14 quarters since he has come back the Thunder have scored 30+ points. That a recipee for a lot of wins. Man, some team is going to be real happy in the summer of 2016. Hope its the Thunder.

Not very efficient.

Still an awesome player though.

I get your point that individual games were inefficient, but you are selecting arbitrary end points to make your points. Over the four game sample collectively he's quite efficient.

Besides it doesn't matter. We have years of data that show Harden is far superior to Klay.
 
This latest Beal injury is unfortunate. The future outlook for the Wiz has severely dampened in my eyes.
 
How much can you rely on Beal?

Have a great shot for KD obviously but If it's just Wall then KD might think it's better to just stay on a stacked thunder team.
 
You are the one that hypes up Beal all the time. Can the Wiz rely on Beal less than the Thunder can rely on Westbrook?

Has RW shown any lingering effects of his injury? Guy is as athletic as ever and is playing better then ever. The debate on whether or not RW is the right complimentary piece to KD is a great argument but by all accounts KD loves him and encourages him all the time to play like this.

Plus, the Thunder have so much better young talent at this stage.
 
But, it's OKC, not Washington DC.

Beal has a minor stress reaction in his leg. He's not Derrick Rose yet.

It's easy to build when your base is Wall, KD, Beal....at least with any GM with half a brain.
