Yeah, ironically I could better understand someone with that sentiment last offseason, when Sengun was super efficient on offense, and took...
I originally made an off hand comment about how last season I thought of Sengun's future to have a Yao type of career, multiple all-stars, best...
In the end my original statement was "neutral NBA fans who have watched both Vince and Amen live would consider Vince the more athletic player."...
Every sport has certain types of athleticisms that are more conducive to being successful in said sports than others. As far as athleticism that...
I would say if you make that comparison outside Rockets fandom with people old enough to have seen Toronto Vince Carter, it would be a landslide...
Are we really doing this stupid thing where you compare someone who entered the league at 19 vs. someone who ended at 22 and compare a 4yr vet to...
People just have different standards for different players but at the same time also judge them by those different standard like they can be...

Career % shots at the basket and FT rate for these players. Including FT rate cause FTs are mostly generated with shots close to the basket....
The Nets offering Cam Thomas 2/28 including a team option. Miami got Norm Powell for essentially some cap relief. Colin Sexton needed a 2nd...
4 second shot clock doing a lot of work here. Presumably because its not practical practicing Harden style probe the defender 10 seconds when you...
