Actually, can you show me a team where all starting 5 players have very efficient stats?
There is no such thing as a perfect team.
Meer and AA aren't efficient on offense either. If you want efficient, The Heat's roster has 10 guys with TS% above league average (.530) and Rashard is just below it at .526... The Magic only have 3. O'Quinn, Nicholson, and Vucevic. Of our rotation players, only E'Twaun Moore has been a less efficient offensive player than Davis.
Now that we are only comparing with the top team in the entire league as a benchmark, then every team is loaded with players who suck. But, lets just take a team like lets say Charlotte or Hornets or Bucks and tell me how efficient their Bigs are compared to BBD.
What I am trying to show is that improving teams are loaded with inefficient players because they lack the talent that allows these players to be more efficient. BBD could be much more efficient given the right chemistry around him.
Did you miss the part where I said Davis is pretty much the least efficient scorer on the worst team in the NBA? I don't have a problem with having bad players in our lineup. My problem is when they think they deserve to shoot more than they need to. Our 3 leaders in shot attempts per game (excluding Harris since most of his playing time has come without AA, Nelson, and Davis in the lineup) are all terribly inefficient. That needs to change.
In case you seriously wanted to know how many
big men are more efficient scorers than Davis on bad teams:
Milwaukee (7)Dalambert, Ayon (post-trade), Ilyasova, Harris (pre-trade), Sanders, Udoh, Henson
Charlotte (2)Jeff Adrien, McRoberts
New Orleans (7)Aminu, Darius Miller, Jason Smith, Ryan Anderson, Anthony Davis, Lance Thomas, Robin Lopez
Phoenix (4)Gortat, O'Neal, PJ Tucker, Scola
Orlando (5)Nicholson, Ayon (pre-trade), O'Quinn, Vucevic, Harris (post-trade)
