Bad analogy.

One season is more than long enough to be considered a peak.

Agree to disagree.

That time Horford scored a put back basket off his own offensive rebound was a godly peak. He averaged 1 rebound per 0.000000000026 career minutes during that peak period.

An unmatched feat.

You're telling me Average 35 isn't a big deal compare to 30? Many many players had averaged 30 before. Not many averaged 35 a season.

actually a truer way to determine efficient scoring would be to contrast it to points allowed by that player. kinda like a ratio between points accounted for : points allowed. because at the end of the day, a fg% doesn't determine if you win. the most efficient way to win is to score points at a higher rate than your opponent.

but it's kinda hard to determine that for individual players because evaluating defense often involves the entire team as a whole

"Peak" and "prime" to me are distinct. "Peak" usually refers to a player's peak season.

Though either way, Wade's 2-year "peak" was also > Kobe's.

Making it 3-year Kobe moves above him probably because Wade never had 3 consecutive great years. He had two discrete 2-year peaks.



Yeah until player tracking statistical analysis advances more it's difficult to really evaluate a player's individual defense. PT-PM does a decent job.

I'm telling you Wade created more points than Kobe.

Lay off the vodka and stick to dota

swaggy p has a great point here.
gsw fans truly don't know anything about basketball..

Wow what an astute revelation. And here I was thinking a game of basketball was hinged on the direct result of an individual. Well I'll be
