KingRevolver Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 "James ranks 16th on the all-time assists list, with only guards ahead of him. If James keep up his season average of 9.1 assists, which would be a career high, he would finish the 2016-17 campaign ranked 12th all time in assists, passing Tim Hardaway (7,095), Terry Porter (7,160), Lenny Wilkens (7,211) and Mo Cheeks (7,392) in the process." Tripp and Deemer going to suck him extra hard tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripp Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 44/10/9 tonight and heres the key stat, 70% SHOOTING Russ and his over the top fans should take notes while they drool over a 27/10/10 with 9 turnovers and 9/26 or so shooting (That isnt to hate on Russ, i think hes incredible, but people are going way over the top with the praise for the triple doubles when the ball is always in his hands, leads league in turnovers and he rarely has an efficient shooting night) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripp Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Basketball positions don't mean much anymore.they really never did, there are no specific positions on a basketball court Its not like football where everyone lines up somewhere different, you run a play and then line up at your position again for the next play Everyone is on the same court using up the same space playing both ways. Labeling positions just helps people follow and understand easier but its never been necessary or important. Whats true is more and more people have become wise to this and value versatility. You want players that can do it all, or as much of it as possible (ie shoot, dribble, rebound, pass, move, defend) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eberetta1 Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 That's a lot of touches. Other than Isaiah Thomas, LeBron is the only reason I give a rip about the NBA.Self made man and over 7000 assists to back it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you keep pointing to turnovers for Russell. You won't shut up about it.... yet when he has endless triple doubles you say it's because he always has the ball in his hands. But when you talk about turnovers you don't point out that he has a lot of those because he always has the ball in his hands. Pretty funny.

The league is more perimeter oriented now, so SF's aren't on the block nearly as much as they used to be but they used to play on the block and inside the key 99% of the game. Also, guys back in the day were forced into position based on their height. Magic started to help break that mold, but even then people were skeptical.

Teddy kgb Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Best everLight years ahead of Kobe that's for sure......the comparison always bugged me because it was always a complete mismatch..

Guest boatboatboat Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Jordan NEVER had to take the floor knowing he needed 15 rebounds for his team to have shot at a win Kobe NEVER had to take the floor knowing he needed 15 assist for his team to have a shot to win James has been in BOTH situations. His whole career he has been asked to Score,assist,rebound and match up with the other teams best scorer THAT is the diff with James vs the others discussed as one of the best ever.

Jordan's best rebounding season he averaged 8 a game; Lebron's best rebounding season he averaged 8 a game. You're just talking complete and utter nonsense. Jordan had to do more with less than Lebron ever did in the late 80's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
