[hayesc0]

sometimes this stat make since but some of the players among the league leaders are Greg Smith and JaVale McGee

Not much. TS(True shooting percentage) is a much better representation of a players overall efficiency

 

[tremonthustler1]

PER is reliable, but it's also very slanted towards the big man since big men are better rebounders

 

[gho3st]

There's only 4 players who play 35 mns or more on that list:
Kobe, Melo, Bron, KD.

So i'd put them ahead of the others in the top 10
1.Bron
2.KD
3.Kobe
4.Melo
