He's just 'showing how it's done'(?), in this case to 'challenge the conventional wisdom' that Westbrook/the team weren't just padding his rebound stats (it was pretty clear they were). Spending 10 hours to do so, for the blogosphere intelligentsia
i'm showing you how to go about making a point and how to find evidence for your argument when the conventional wisdom doesn't follow and the tools are insufficient. you accused someone of 'lazy analysis' earlier in this discussion. from where i'm sitting, the lazy one appears to be you.
if you'd prefer to just shout your opinions from the top of the tallest building, that's fine. just call them your opinions, i'll leave you alone and we can "agree to disagree". but you continue to join in on these debates, continue to use labels like 'stat nerds' or whatever, and then cry or whine when a heavyweight comes along asking you where your evidence is. disparaging me for spending time researching basketball on a basketball forum, for a basketball forum, in the middle of a basketball debate is stupid. you sound like a climate change denier.
