Of course I do, but the obsession for FG% is stupid. I've always hated that. For PF/C it makes sense. You should shoot over 50%. But for perimeter players? Who really cares about that?

Because being more efficient is almost always better than not.

If you got two dudes and one can score 30 on 17 shots and the other scores 35 on 27 shots, who did a better job scoring?

Just use PPG and FG% together. No one thinks DeAndre Jordan is a better scorer than MJ because his FG% is higher but if you got two perimeter players and one is much more efficient, that shyt matters.

Tobe was never the undisputed best player in the league. Debate Steve Nash's MVPs.

And the correct answer is 2008-2015.
