Why nobody would average 50 today

[DaRock]

Hey Bron stan, why didn’t LeBron put up bail money when JJ Barea locked him up for cowardice in the 2011 finals?

Hey child..
LeBron James let the pressure of the Finals and everything that came with it (that particular year)get to him..he has said it..has admitted it...it happened..what more are we discussing?
...LeBron biggest issue throughout his entire career is that he tries to think the game more often instead of just playing..
Why people point to the game 6 against the Celtics of the scariest we ever seen of him(he wasn't hot that game) dude just said fukk it I am just going to play.

Those "everything was better when I was young" cats don't give a fukk no matter how illogical it sounds. If Harden couldn't average 40 or even topple MJ's 37 then no one else can.

Harden was taking the most shots, most 3s and most FTAs yet even he couldn't sniff that number. And like Thinking Basketball said, no one is averaging 40+ MPG anymore to inflate their numbers because the talent floor is much higher than it used to be and the game is more taxing on the body.

Defense, teammates, winning/losing.
The video talked about it all together..which is why someone averaging 50 won't happen..and it's not as easy as people say "Kobes/MJ/etc"" best scoring season and just add another 8-9 points because of "x,y,z era".

Even if someone goal was to do it and only focus on that..the other team, your teammates, other normal game flows, how many minutes are you playing per night, usage rate, your defensive assignments, etc.wouldn't allow it every night..it's a simple concept that people argue against for no real reason.

You can’t explain the math to dummies who cut class, breh.

Kobe averaged 35 with Chris mihm, kwame brown, and smush Parker on the floor. You don’t think he’d eclipse harden with today’s typical spacing lineups? Kobe wouldn’t shoot more 3s if he came up in this era, given that being what the best players do? This is my point. We’re going back and comparing advanced stats and they don’t account for the era. I know Kobe is better than harden and if his 35 ppg year was in 2018, it likely would’ve been higher and/or more efficient.

2005 Kobe averaging 45 in this era easy

Yeah and a fast paced system leads to you sharing the rock more often than not because you need ball movement to play like that; even iso heavy teams like the 19 Rockets move the ball more than the average team from 95-2009. And like what people have to keep repeating, the pace leads to people playing less minutes so they dont get worn out which is the other side to why nobody's averaging 40 - they simply would never play the minutes needed to get there.

Look 87 MJ and 19 Harden. 87 Bulls were the slowest team in the league and Rockets were fourth slowest. And even the 06 Lakers were middle of the pack. That type of basketball that revolves around 1 guy, its going to be slower and more deliberate because there's a lot of "everyone stands around while 1 guy tries to create a shot". To get a shot off in 7 seconds or less you have to actually pass

Last question dog..when Bean hit that pull up against Phoenix to go up 3-1 at the crib.
Why he couldn't win 1 more game?

Kobe stans say “he was proving a point.” Apparently “proving a point” >> winning. Must be that Mamba mentality I keep hearing about

He could but he didn't want to
Selective Mamba mentality..

Smartest Kobetard.

Kobe couldn't average 30 PPG against the no-defense Suns who he blew a 3-1 lead to despite clocking 45 minutes a game in that series but sure, he'd put up 40+ every night just because....

Its funny because either Kobe is one of the biggest chokers ever given his PPG dropped by 7 points compared to the regular season (against a bad defensive team) or it proves one of the premises of Thinking Basketball's video that defenses will always adjust and limit the best players impact by forcing others to beat them.

But nah, let's insult everyone's intelligence by claiming he'd drop 40 a night easy because they can't let their childhood go.

So Kobe would play against the suns for 82 games. You’re a fukking retard and don’t understand basketball

Bron stans are in a constant state of crisis

Their daddy is posting empty stats and is the reason the Lakers have punted this season

Even Byron Scott prays this is his last season

A respected member of the showtime Lakers wants this geriatric feggot off the team

There’s no spinning that pussies
