Aren’t there a bunch of sub-superstar players who’ve been main cogs with average efficiency? Wasn’t that Melo? RJ is drawing fouls. There are shades of Paul Pierce but seems doubtful he’s that good.



DDR didn't become an efficient scorer until his age 26 season. I think Jimmy Butler & Paul Pierce didn't hit league average efficiency on volume until they were around 24 either...though Jimmy came into the league much older.

Jaylen Brown still struggles to score efficiently...he was efficient from 2020-2022, but wasn't before then, last season he was bang on league average like Julius, and this season his TS is at 56.9% when league average is 58.1%

He also slipped in the first quarter along the baseline from another sweat spot left behind from players while free throws were being taken.

I imagine internet sports doctors have a Secaucus-like setup in a dark room where they have multiple screens to monitor potential in-game injuries to be the first to react to them. They’re like Woj/Shams but for medical diagnosis.

Trouble in Bucks land? If Giannis demands a trade, would you do… Randle, Fournier, Grimes and two 1sts for Giannis?
