Rochut,,,this thread is to answer the myth that Mobley is getting wildly outscored....it isn't even close. This thread is not trying to prove anything else. What "mythical 25+ SG?" I gave stats of the top 29 SGs by minutes. Look it up. There are 29 SGs with 25+ mpg, and their average mpg is 35 mpg. These SGs score 16.75 ppg on 35 minutes. Smeggy, as an aside, Mobley outscored his opponent 47-27 (give or take a game). btw: Mobley's points don't necessary go up linearly based on minutes. Surely he has rest minutes out there just to clear out and play some defense. I'd like to see his minutes go down to 40mpg, which is what Battier got.
I would like to add that I want Mobes to play fewer minutes so he can be more effective. Rochut, you've got it backwards. (from my point of view)
I agree Deckard. The minutes need to go down, so he can be better rested. LeGrouper, Here are those cost-effectiveness numbers. This is based off another stat of production that another website keeps. Mobley is 10th best deal. Of course, Rashard and Jordan are coming off this list. <table cellpadding=3 cellspacing=1 border=0 width=100% bgcolor=EFE7CE><tr bgcolor="CCD4CC" valign=top><td class=V10> <b> Name </td><td class=V10> <b> 2002 Salary </td><td class=V10> <b> Production </td><td class=V10> <b> Big C </td> </tr><tr bgcolor="E3E2CF" valign=top><td class=V11> 1.

Shandon made # 8 overpaid list. This link provides the explanation of the "Production" stat. http://tsn.sportingnews.com/voices/sean_deveney/20020809.html
