Other than on this board, there is a generally negative bias against stats in basketball, so it would be very strange if there did not continue to...
I don't recall Rudy ever saying he wants to be in a Hispanic community. Spanish culture is very different from LA/Texas/etc. If he's homesick he'd...
Chase shoots right handed, but bats lefty. Nobody does that without having insane coordination. Is there any sport he can't play?
Oden's problem is that, even when healthy, he was very foul prone. He has averaged 6.4 fouls per 36 min over his career. Yao, in comparison, has...
Oden above Yao = nuclear explosion fail. Talking Chernobyl here.
+1 Iguodala definitely a better fit than Melo. My ideal trade would be something like: Jeffries, Bud, Hill, and the 2 Knicks picks for...
No to R. Lopez. Biedrins is supplanted by Lee. The 10 left on the list seem reasonable to me. The only question is Jefferson, who might not be a...
Not to be morbid, but there is a pretty literal answer to your question. Check his wiki entry. On another note, today he choked a practice...
As I mentioned above, it is well-known that low usage players have distorted stats. The point is not that Melo is a bad player. It is that,...
Durvasa's post states it well, as this seems to be boiling down to raw stats vs. efficiency (not the "NBA efficiency" which is misleadingly named)...

Collison is worth more, but Posey has negative value.
With CBud we are fine without Ariza. Should have a minimal impact on the team's play.
Yes I will watch -- the same way Astros fans have watched baseball for the last 4 years.
It's pretty hard to argue that Melo is better than any of the top 5, and Dirk, Duncan, and Paul are almost certainly ahead of him. I'd prob take...
People who say Melo is top 5 never bother to list who he's better than. People who say Melo is top 10 are hoping others are too lazy to debate...
Duncan's career FT: 68.7% Shaq's career FT: 52.7% Duncan's not Ray Allen, but it's far superior to Shaq. For comparison, Houston's points per...
Shaq is thought to be better than Hakeem b/c Shaq had more media coverage had better teammates, and because defense tends to be underappreciated....
Shaq has been more dominating offensively but also has much bigger flaws, namely his FT shooting and his complete lack of a jump shot. Duncan is...
