Really curious to see how the team will look when David Lee returns.

I honestly would rather have Draymond over Lee if I had to pick between the two players.

I feel like Kerr will have Lee come off the bench, at least initially. And then depending on how the team looks, he will make any necessary changes.

I don't mean to say anything bad about Mark Jackson, but I feel like we're in much better hands with Kerr at the helm. And I think that the front office is giving him much more room to do what he thinks is right.

Since the beginning of the 2012 season:

Players with a Player Efficiency Rating (PER) ≥ 23.0 and a Value Over Replacement Player (VORP) ≥ 13.0:
- Lebron James
- Kevin Durant
- Steph Curry

Players to average ≥ 23.0 PPG, ≥ 7.0 APG, ≥ 4.0 RPG
- Steph Curry. That's it.


Unbelievable.

It is amazing, for sure, but the stats are kinda picked specifically so that only Curry is listed lol. LeBron is 0.2 APG from meeting the criteria, Westbrook is 0.3 PPG away, and Harden is 1 APG away, but they exceed in other stats.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Doesn't make it any less impressive. He's still the only one averaging 23/7/4 in that time, that doesn't change no matter which way you spin it.

Like you said, even if you make it 22/6/4, the only others added onto that list are LBJ, Westbrook and Flopden. Still very elite company.


Plus Westbrook has played 2,000 fewer minutes

What I mean was if you were to bring the assists down and raise the points and rebounds, Curry drops off the list and LeBron and Westbrook are added.

But I agree it's really impressive :)

I mean, there are only 5 players in the NBA who have averaged over 24 PPG since the beginning of 2012...

It's not like those numbers are excluding 10-15 elite scorers or something lol
