    Good idea to create this graph. It's interesting. It'll be cool to see how it changes.

    Surprising many players with TS% in the .500~.530 range. That's actually around just league average I think. Melo, Griffin, Millsap, Wall, to name a few. Really put into context that Harden's still efficient despite his terrible shooting until now.

    Josh Smith's position is just lol!

    Wow, I didn't know Jimmy Butler was so efficient. Maybe Carl Herrera's thread about him getting the max isn't so farfetched...

    Am I the only one who's prepared to accept that this Harden might be the normal Harden and not just a slumping one. He didn't exactly shoot lights out last year, and his usage rate will probably be higher this year.

    Everything and everyone eventually goes back to the historical average.

    And they said Josh Smith's game is above the rim.

    Harden plays super-physical basketball. (Glad we haven't heard from those idiots doing an eye-test on Harden's tummy and butt these days.) He runs and he bangs. Like John Riggins of the NFL, if anyone remembers him. Expends a lot of energy, a lot more than when he was coming off the bench in OKC. I'm not surprised that his shooting % is down, but I still think he is playing at MVP level.

    Also, don't sleep on Brandon Jennings, he's gotten off to a stunning start this year vs his historical numbers.

    25 PER and >60% TS%

    Not sure that anyone is capable of this but if so, can we get an updated version of this to date?

    Arguing with a Laker fan the merits of JH over Kobe (I know) and I want to cite this but with JH's recent slumpage an updated version would help.
