    NBA TV is wrong:

    Kobe (27.5 ppg) & Dwight (16.4 ppg)

    Carmelo (27.5 ppg) & JR Smith (16.5 ppg)

    Harden (26.2 ppg) & Parsons (15.3 ppg)

    Well I don't know what putting 3 random groups of people up there has to do with anything, but you're wrong if you're putting those in order of highest scoring duos. Namely, you're forgetting a duo from OKC and you could pick one of two duos from Miami that have a higher average as well.

    My point is Harden/Parons aren't the 4th, that makes 5 duos that score more than them.

    They're probably using some very selective criteria. I hate stats like those. I didn't see the segment, but I imagine it was probably something like:

    Harden/Parsons #4 scoring duo among perimeter players in a starting lineup together.

    Edit- It can't be perimeter players since Blake Griffin is listed with CP3.

    Highest scoring usually means points output, not a per game basis. Dwight missed enough games, as well as Carmelo. They are probably going for total points, in which case, They are probably where NBA TV says they're at.

    :confused:
    26.2+15.3=41.5
    16.6+18.7=35.3

    Maybe it's total points?

    I don't understand how this statistic managed to be so wrong in so many ways.

    If it's total points why is Paul/Griffin listed ahead of them. CP3 was out for weeks. Harden/Parsons have only missed a few games.

    Total points work if you replace CP3/Griffin with Kobe/Howard I think.
