iblocka third youngest ever to 1000 iblocks

Ibaka had four swats in the 106-89 loss, bringing him to 1,001 for his career at the age of 25 years, 41 days. Only Josh Smith and Dwight Howard reached 1,000 blocks at a younger age, with Smith setting the league record at 24 years and 59 days, per NBA.com.

Spurs’ Duncan-Ginóbili-Parker trio reached 500 wins Monday. They’re second behind Celtics’ Bird-McHale-Parish (540)

I don't think the league started keeping track of blocks until the 70s or 80s or something, wilt probably had 10000 blocks his first season

man someone pre-'85 MUST have been perfect with more attempts

pau with the 27-11-2-3

xp Yeah true, forgot it has that limiter. Still, a pretty rare feat, especially for a dude that's not really a dunker.

i bet some wite with a set shot got hot in 1954.

16-16 PB (peach baskets)

hah

pau was feelin himself last nite

jarret, man you just knew he was gonna go off against the warriors. calling a 2-9 night next time he plays

revenge jack

over the last four games, all wins, damian lillard is averaging 23.0, 5.3, & 7.8 with 1.5 steals, hitting 4 threes per game, on 58% shooting from the floor.

Needed it after such a crap start

dame is so good but i was looking at his stats and for someone w his skills he doesnt get to the line enough whats up w that does he just not drive enough

he doesn't drive enough and isn't v good at selling contact. also he kinda has a reputation for never getting to the line and perception plays into this stuff a lot.

kobe bryant 1-14 fg

DJ last night: 12 pts, 18 rebs, 7 blks

scary

Also CP3: 32 pts, 9 asts, 5 rebs, 2 stls, 10-13 FG, 5-6 3P

lol JR smith had 28 points today so basically he's gonna blow it in his next 3 games

well yea we are never posting these things for the words obviously

its just kinda shocking how bad he is at thinking about what the stats mean

elaborate (i think i might agree w/ you but am curious)

well measuring shooters league wide based on korvers constellation of shots is silly, those shots are the ones korver is good at! thats why he takes them! its like saying kyle korver is the best at being kyle korver, btw is it even clear from the article what hes talking about, does he just casually slide from the constellation data set to a general points per shot metric i cant tell

and then like just generally maybe some of the stuff hes saying is true but its just not very informative, he cldve dug deeper and like compared currys catch and shoot percentage to korvers, their % on open shots etc, but instead hes just all this guy is very efficient! cool i guess, its decontextualized to the point of just being a factoid

also the headline straight up says korver is the best shooter

many of his pieces r even worse than this one conceptually tho

there's a part in that article about how korver is the best shooter where he brings up a data point that implies the next best shooter is deandre jordan which either makes you question either what kinda data we're looking at or if the author is paying attention to how he's making his points

like you can like math and all but you have to be able to critically assess your math to really have a viewpoint that isn't "wow I like math check it out"

his articles kinda come of as him looking at one of his pretty charts and going oh and this part and this part and this part and then realizing that he shd somehow try to string those thoughts into an argument by saying efficiency

also like he says efficiency but theres clearly some sort unmentioned floor as far as number of shots taken to qualify for the list of best shooters

yea there's no nuance to it, like no control put out there against his hypothesis (the league average as a whole is too wide a swath of data to really serve as such). the easiest one would be as you said, someone like curry, who's often creating threes right away for himself off the dribble

title is prob the result of an editor tryna get optimal SEO juice outta that shit

also lol just checked and this does not include FTs! how convienent for kyle korver who only attempts 1.6 a game

and those are from technical fouls

like i fully believe in sports stats and their proper implementation, etc. etc. but the literalism can be baffling, like for example you would much rather have marc gasol on yr team as center than deandre - even though deandre's FG% (like his number in this somewhat arbitrary metric) is higher - because whether gasol's percentage is lower or not he's inherently a more diverse shooter & offensive player

yeah its a def forest for the trees type of situ, stats for stats sake

turns out efficiency on an individual player level is a p quicksilver concept

lol yeah i've been griping about goldsberry for a while. occasionally he'll come out with something worthwhile tho

just noticed this on bbrefrnce

gasol brothers minute totals in the 2014-2015 season:
marc 2687
pau 2681

13th and 14th in the nba respectively

i hadn't realised how strong george hill's season was
