    I'd say not quite, but probably on the cusp of the bottom 5 when defense is considered. I think tomorrow night I will perform a DETAILED STATISTICAL ANALYSIS to prove this, including regression and ANOVA and in a clutchfans first...PIE CHARTS.

    PPG - this is his best stat and it is completely average
    RPG - below average
    APG - below average
    Defense - worst in the league
    efficiency - below average this year

    When all a player can do is score and the other aspects of his game are among the worst in the league, when he stops scoring he becomes a pretty bad player. Arguably he's not even worth the league minimum because even T-mac is way better if you adjust his stats up for minutes played, and T-mac is a lot more efficient (50% fg vs 41%). And you'll get some rebounding and creating for others out of T-mac, as well as better defense. Yeah, that's right, I said T-mac and "better defense" in the same sentence so that should give you an idea of how bad K-brick is.

    Just think about that if Martin makes even one of his five threes, the Spurs game doesn't even go to overtime.

    Carl Landry's never coming back. And you still welched on your bet, p***y.

    I come home and pop on clutchfans before going to bed and this garbage is what I find. :( Makes me wish I had just gone straight to bed or at least had a couple of more 6 packs before reading this crap.

    Neg rep on myself for opening up a JCDenton thread.

    Just because he is struggling right now does NOT make him below average offensively! He's still a top 5 SG

    You are not allowed to post if you are not to include some classic office 95 graphs.

    Good grief! I bet this "detailed statistical analysis" will be worth as much as a $28 bill.
