I like to talk sports.
Stats and film work together, not against each other.

@jackjaxson1988 @Drewmamba619 Kobe scored 8 points once in the playoffs/Finals and they lost that game by 33 points.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@Ispeakfaxdh @KickClipz1 @Od1nsk1AFC Luka averages 39.5 points when taking 27 or more shots per game.

@BiasedHouston Hali is the only one I would consider a true PG the way Amare is describing in this list.

@BanisMajor The Boston Celtics currently hold the lead with 3,751 wins. They also have the highest winning percentage of all active franchises at 59.7%.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@NycVipers This isn’t exactly accurate. Jordan did not play “15 complete active seasons.”

Two of those were less than 20 games (1986-87 injury, 18 total game appearances in the regular season, and late return to the league in 1994-95, 17 total game appearances).

@RamsFCFC @JT25Saints Drew Brees finished second in MVP voting four times.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@LBJgoat_talk This isn’t right. The averages are showing 0 per game for LA which is obviously inaccurate.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@Naylor408 This is my favorite spot to shoot from.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@Shane00 While it is true that Magic had more than Jordan in this series, that does not make the claim from the quoted post untrue.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@ScorpioQueMann I wouldn’t say Seattle outplayed Chicago offensively. They shot more efficiently, yes, but they also turned the ball over a lot more.

Rodman was a major factor in the win and a case could be made for him being FMVP, but Chicago’s defense as a whole was a massive element.

@thejbratc Jerry’s longevity stats are on top of his top tier averages and big game performances.

6x leader in total yards
6x leader in yards per game
2x leader in receptions
3x leader in yards per touch
6x leader in receiving TDs
2x leader in total TDs

@Chewbaccas_dad1 @SportsStatsFan @pitlessball Magic was the only starter over 30 and he still put up his career averages that season. And based on advanced metrics (BPM, VORP, PER, etc) it was one of his five best seasons.

I agree it wasn’t one of the best Lakers teams ever but they were not old or worn down.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@PONTA6565 @Midnight_Givens This isn’t accurate relative to the criteria in the original post.

Jordan played 0 playoff series as a member of the Wizards and lost 7 times as the lower seed with Chicago

1985 vs MIL
1986 vs BOS
1987 vs BOS
1988 vs DET
1989 vs DET
1990 vs DET
1995 vs ORL

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@jarvisma22 @Supreme23_____ This is a very misleading chart (and partially inaccurate based on the timeline chosen).

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@_iamlougotti Of these three I would probably pick Embiid if he can stay healthy. Giannis is too limited offensively for that era based on how crowded the paint was with shot blockers and I don’t know how Jokic would do without the spacing/outlets he has now. He might still be the same though.

@Stats_N_Facts The sample size is too small to say anything one way or another.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@allthesmokeprod Grant still remains one of the biggest what-ifs in league history.

[MoreThanMetrics @MoreThanMetrics]

@thejbratc A case could absolutely be made for Bill.
