Warriors, Clippers, Jazz In Top-10 In Both Offensive, Defensive Efficiency 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Dec 7, 2016 6:27 pm

With nearly all 30 teams having played at least 20 games to start the 16-17 NBA regular season, we're roughly at the quarter mark.


The Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Clippers and Utah Jazz are the only three teams in the NBA to rank in the top-10 in both offensive and defensive efficiency.


At the 1/8 mark, the Clippers, San Antonio Spurs and Chicago Bulls ranked in the top-10 in both categories.


Last season, the Cleveland Cavaliers, Warriors, Celtics, Charlotte Hornets, Clippers and Spurs finished in the top-10 on both sides of the floor.

Not bad considering we've suffered with injuries harder than any other team in the NBA.

Ammm... Horford has missed 11 games, Crowder 8. Smart has missed 3-4 weeks(on different occasions). Olynyk started playing 3 weeks ago, now IT is injured. I'm not really sure, you've suffered harder than any other team.
Good assessment:

Missed games:

Burks - 23, one of the best sixth men in the league when healthy
Hill - 12, probably our MVP at this point
Favors - 12, he's a 16/8 PF and one of the best rim protectors in the NBA
Hayward - 6, and has struggled in some games because his finger is still not completely healed
Hood - 2
Diaw - started the season hurt, sat out some, has been great since he's come back

Celtics:

Horford - 10
Crowder - 8
Olynyk - 6
Smart - 3
Thomas - 1

You were saying?
