The next time somebody uses Win Shares to evaluate NBA players, remember this:

Atl: 37-45, +12 run diff., 11.0 GB, 23.1%
Cin: 44-41, +33 run diff., 5.5 GB, 15.9%
Stl: 47-39, +38 run diff., 3.0 GB, 49.3%
Anyway, some of these don't make a lot of sense.
@HinterSports@NateDuncanNBA He got a TON of pushback from Bucks fans about that -- the same people who said, "Giannis wants to be a Buck forever You guys are all just jelly and Shams is trying to start trouble!"
@NateDuncanNBA Most of his points were on cherry-picked stats. Kind of silly to compare winning percentages between baseball and basketball when it's obviously more common to win a high percentage in NBA.
Those of you who listen to me regularly know I'm not one to use this term lightly, but has an NBA team ever choked worse over a full series than the Spurs this year? Maybe the Lakers in '84? I don't know enough about all those Philly and Lakers teams in the 60s to say.
No one has ever thrown a Maddux featuring this many Ks and this few hits. Just unreal.
The closest would be:
Max Scherzer’s No Hitter in 2015 vs the Mets featuring 17 Ks, but 109 pitches
& Clayton Kershaw’s 2014 No Hitter vs the Rockies which featured 15 Ks, but 107 pitches.
@independentnic@Knickanator_ I mean, I have reasons for calling him a racist, and they're a helluva lot more valid than disagreeing with him about Cam Reddish.
Like, seriously, what kind of person calls someone a white supremacist for pointing out a bad player is bad?
This was Cam freaking Reddish. Would someone be a black supremacist if they said Dalton Knecht sucks? How do you even come to that in your head?
You said I was a white supremacist, but now you agree with me?
This leaves 2 possibilities:
1. You think you're a white supremacist.
2. You're such a piece of shit that you can't admit you shouldn't have called someone that for disagreeing with you about a basketball player.
@independentnic@Knickanator_ Maybe you can answer this:
Why is he such a shitty human being that he calls someone a white supremacist when they don't agree with him about a basketball player?
Because that sounds like a racist.
