What does that have to do with anything? Westbrook takes more shots than Durant does even though Westbrook is way less efficient

How in THE fuck does Bosh only get 3 rebs last night?

Also Farried pwned last night, 16 pts, 20 rebs 2 stls and a blk. How did he slip so far in the draft? Dude's got skills.

What I'm saying is that James Harden is as good if not better than Russell Westbrook. This year the Thunder will not Be aS good the Rockets will be better than last year

The best line up for Denver last night was with both faried and McGee on the floor. Really impressed by both last night

Guarantee you he just roams Celtics forums and just posts shit on here. Like we GAF?

Kind of like 2quik for the Lakers. Except less obnoxious with the "put every fucking team-related meme I can find over 24 hours on this site" deal.

Quickly turning into my favorite player on the team. Hes our version of Varejao. Just hustles the entire game. Definitely slipped because of his height and he played for a mid major I would guess

The two games I've watched of them...Faried has been a monster. Was very impressed.

As for Bosh and 3 boards....his shiity games he should still have 8+...3 makes me question his effort

Itd be too hard to make a top 25 list here. Because it would change every 2 games, because apparently you only need 2 or 3 games as a starter before youre vaulted into the top 25 with impressive outputs haha

I will say this, what I have seen from Melo this year, he looks better than ever in phases of the game

Faired was the best rebounder in the nation in college. Loved watching him play and wanted the Pacers to draft him. Don't care if it was Morehead St or not, kid could ball then and he can ball now.

Right, because a player drafted #3 overall a few years ago isn't capable of being a top 25 player...

And you should probably tell Ginobili that starting is a prerequisite to being a top 25 player, I wonder what he'd have to say...

But he doesn't post on here much for some reason.....I wonder why. He loves the Browns, he'd fit right in except for 1 thing.

Let's look at 3 players advanced stats from last year

Player A
6.2 Win Shares; 105/106 Off/Def rating; PER 21.9

Player B
6.2 Win shares; 106/102 Off/Def rating; PER 21.1

Player C
9.3 Win shares; 125/105 Off/Def rating; PER 21.1

Is any one of those players significantly worse than the others? 1 is James Harden, and the other 2 are, IMO, top 10 players.

So HB you can ramble on and on about your weak "aesthetic" argument for why Harden isn't a top 25 player, meanwhile I'll use actual stats and an actual argument to show that he is.

Doesnt matter what hed say, Ginobli isnt a top 25 player. And where he was drafted has absolutely no correlation to him being a potential top 25 player

You continue to use PER as a backing point for your argument. Have you seen some of the players that rank top 25 in PER? LOL

For example, Kyle Lowery is #1 this year, and Jimmer Fredette is #3. Very solid system

HB, you're completely dodging my argument and your stubbornness is not only f*cking hilarious but also a sign of someone who can't admit they're wrong. Those are last year's stats so Jimmer and Lowry are irrelevant. You want to discredit PER, but your explanation for win shares is???

Answer the question: Is Player A, B, or C visibly or significantly worse than any of the others?
