nba stats 2014-15

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

Yup.

Melo has been great a few games in a row though. Too bad he has so little help, actually warming to him a lot lately.

Lakers' 114.7 defensive rating is the worst mark through 10 games since the NBA started tracking it in 1997.

as of right now, the only metrics brow isn't top 5 in are assists and FG% - he doesn't make top 40 in assists but is 9 in FG percentage w/.579

#3 in points (25.2 per game) and rebounds (11.7), #1 in blocks and steals (4.00 and 2.33)

alec burks 20(on 8 shots) - 14reb

xp sure enough, JR Smith was the weak link (among players you could even expect anything from) last night, although he did hit a pretty clutch 3 toward the end (and then miss the next one, iirc).

Anthony Davis has only committed 14 turnovers in 11 games. Not much (any?) precedent for such high usage/PER/low turnover rate.

brow 43-14-0-2-1, 16-23 from the floor.

wiggy career high 29pts

Games played vs. opponents that played the night before: Miami 7, Oklahoma City 0.

wiggy's got some moves. I keep forgetting he's only 19, def has room to become a great.

he looks effortless out there gliding around floating up threes like hes shooting a foul shot, good stuff

he has a little bit of that weightless MJ quality, very springy

jordan was very forceful, also smaller, im thinking more like grant hill

yeah MJ was def stronger/more aggressive in his rookie year, but tbf he was two years older. Anyway not trying to build him up to be the next MJ, just see a lightness in his movement that reminded me a little of MJ.

you mean michael jordan the greatest basketball player ever

the same

Mo Speights is shooting 62% on mid-range jumpers greater than 16 ft.

wrong thread though :b

Anthony Davis: 4/20 "best" games so far.

@KellyScaletta: LeBron James and Kyrie have played more career minutes together (399) than Jimmy Butler and Derrick Rose (314).

from the grantland NBA shootaround:

The Knicks and the Lakers are nos. 1 and 2 (as of Monday) in percentage of field goal attempts taken from 16 feet to inside the 3-point line — i.e., the much-maligned long 2 — 29.5 percent for the Knicks, 25.6 percent for the Lakers.

Both teams are in the bottom third of the league in percentage of attempts that are 3-pointers, an especially weird stat for the Knicks, who are shooting a league-leading 40 percent from beyond the arc.

aaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa

weird, they are? I feel like they don't take many 3's when I watch them.

And I'm right, they are 23rd in 3PA. So I feel like that stat is probably the result of them having a lot of randos who can neither shoot 3's nor drive just running in and chucking up long 2's.

Both teams are in the bottom third of the league in percentage of attempts that are 3-pointers

d'oh

yeah misread that completely
