@dimedropper_LA@ClappedDick_ I honestly don’t remember… could have been a pick em. But across those 10 Finals, there was almost always an equal or tougher opponent on the other side. That’s the bigger point about the teams being stacked.
@LAbound2 Looking at the chart, I get that it says Reaves could be better optimized. I’m just not seeing where it says that closes the gap with Mitchell. What was the original argument you’re referring to?
@LAbound2 I hear you man. But no one on that chart is getting a scheme adjustment or taking coaching into consideration. It’s just raw volume and efficiency that we’re talking about here
@LAbound2 Whoops. Meant to say one of the lowest but still doesn’t change my point. Elite guys carry huge volume and protect the rock. Need Reaves to do better in that regard next season then we can have the elite talk
An anonymous NBA general manager doesn’t view Jaylen Brown as a top-50 player, per @TheAthletic
“Though the idea of him being viewed as the seventh-best player on a given team was widely mocked, a recent report that one front-office member saw Brown in that way illuminated the reality that advanced analytics never shined too brightly on Brown’s game. Even more pointedly, a current general manager, speaking anonymously to comment on internal team discussions, told The Athletic in the wake of the trade that he doesn’t view Brown as a top-50 player in the NBA.”
