Joker fan club is very quiet the morning after the Nuggets lose to the Spurs without their best player and Embiid clinched the scoring title.

Which player averages more rebounds, assists, steals & has a better FG%? Oh wait a minute. You only pay attention to numbers that your guy has the lead in. Never mind! :heh:

How does one clinch a scoring title when there are games left to play?

I see you got the excuses ready if Embiid doesn't win. That's awesome.
Excuse? It is what it is. I’ve been saying it for how long? I posted this tweet because dude is saying what I’ve been saying. NBA media fetishizes these advanced stats. My guess is because they’re lazy and they don’t really watch the games the way you would expect an expert getting paid in the industry to do. For instance, last night Embiid had 2 assists. But that doesn’t begin to tell the story of how he facilitated last night in a game where they broke the franchise record for threes made. And on top of that he still got 45 and 13.

The one who plays roughly 7 minutes per game more than Embiid. Did you know how slanted the advanced metrics are based on minutes played? I bet you didn’t. They often don’t account for per minute averages. They are based on per game. A player getting 6-7 minutes more per game has an advantage when they’re just compiling totals.

My biggest issue is that these people don’t watch games and instead lean on limited stats because they’re lazy.

Not sure. That’s what I read this morning. It could be because Giannis has dropped below 30 PPG and LeBron won’t get enough games played to have his average stand up.

Lebron only needs to play 2 of the 3 remaining to qualify. What Embiid did last night may discourage him from it though.

Murray-less Spurs

What a great sequel to a beloved children’s book. “The Little Engine That Won MVorP”
