healthy embiid is the best young player in the league including brow...anyone who understands basketball and doesn't get blinded by raw numbers knows this....but after embiid it's brow who's better than golden boy giannis for now

Among 250 player combinations that have shared the court for 500+ minutes, Embiid owns the #1 spot (with Robert Covington), #4 (with Ben Simmons), #17 (with JJ Reddikk) and #20 (with Dario Saric) in terms of Net Rating.
3 man: with same 500+ criteria. He is in No. 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, 18
4 man: No. 1, 3, 7

Team impact stats > raw stats

Low key Rondo has been real good for AD. Rondo might be a relic but he’s still one of the best passers/game managers probably ever. He stays getting AD easy shots. And you know AD is prob the finisher in the league. He catches and finishes everything. Rondo and AD really compliment each other perfectly.

:whoa:

He simply can't control the pace of the game like the very best players in the league (Bron, Harden, etc), but he's right up there.
Bron doesn't play d, harden is ass on defense as well and kd ain't shyt when the pressure on that's why he went to gsw. Anthony Davis is arguably the best player on BOTH ENDS I'm telling u give this nikka a real team and a healthy boogie and u gone see

Yeah, yeah, yeah, all of that sounds nice but until Anthony Davis proves it when it really matters it's just whatever. Not saying he can't do it, saying he hasn't done it, and to put him above guys who HAVE done it based on some random games in February isn't the wave. We've seen LeBron control full playoff series, we've seen KD and Curry control full playoff games. James Harden has more to prove in that area as well, but even if we're just talking regular season type stuff, he holds more control over a game than Davis does. A lot of this is a function of the position and era he plays, but it is what it is. None of that is taking away from Davis (also, offense in this league is just worth more than defense).

I disagree with this entire post. Offense is just as important as defense. Teams just choose to build offensive juggernauts because it's easier nowadays. But basketball is basketball and a 7 foot nikka that can do everything >>>guards who do a couple things at an elite level and a 7 foot faggit
