You do realize +/- measures something completely different right?
What the hell are you even talking about?
There's a reason why I said you have to provide context, and no it's just because of those reasons.
The only one that's arguing for the sake of arguing is YOU. If you seriously think those rim protection #s imply that Love has been the best defensive big in this series, you might need to stop looking at stats altogether.

This nikka said KEVIN LOVE is the best defensive big in this series.
GET
THE
fukk

A guy who only has 2 blocks the entire series is the best defensive big in the series.
A guy who is straight up dog food when forced to defend on the perimeter is the best defensive big in the series.
This slow footed cac who constantly makes slow rotations and is always late on help defense is the BEST DEFENSIVE BIG IN THE SERIES!!!!!
I don't give a fukk what some cherry picked "advanced stats" have to say, anybody with eyes in their fukking heads and a shred of common fukking sense can see that is not even close to being true.
perfect example of nikkas stat watching and not even watching the games.
You do realize I was joking right? This board sometimes I swear...

I asked you if that is what you were implying and you said yes. Youre just being stupid now.You do realize +/- measures something completely different right?

They probably gave him a shot of toradol today, he should be OK
See bold -
What would possess you to even think I was implying that Love was the best defensive big with those stats in the first place?
I have no
I have no idea what you mean by the bolded.

The D-List Vet
Being in a recommendation system.
Those stats don't lie, and they don't imply Love has been the best defensive big in this series or the best player at defending the rim. They state that opponents have shot a lower percentage at the rim when he's been the defender (lower than any other player who's defended at least 20 FGAs) - not always actively contesting the shot but when he's been the defender. Which is why I said you need to provide the appropriate context, because it's meaningless without it especially given the small sample size.

Transcript of a funny Festus Ezeli story told by Zach Lowe on the Lowe Post:
"By the way, my favorite Festus Ezeli story from the Finals and I don't feel bad because this was an attempt at an on the record interview. I told him it was the worst on the record interview I have ever done. So I was going around asking a lot of Warriors about Game 6 against the Thunder, because to me, if they win tomorrow, that goes down as one of the all-time games in the history of the NBA.
And it was Ezeli and Mo Speights sitting next to each other and I ask, 'What's the first sort, forget Klay's shooting, what's the first sort of image that comes to your mind from Game 6? Maybe it's something from the huddle? Maybe it's a conversation you had on the bench? Maybe it's who knows?'
And Ezeli goes, 'Game 6 against the Thunder???
Yo man, didn't we beat the Thunder 4-1? We didn't have Game 6 against the Thunder. We beat them 4-1, right???'
And Speights looks over and goes, 'Dude, are you kidding???
You don't remember being down 3-1 against the Thunder?'
And Ezeli was like, 'No, we beat...it was 3-1. I mean it was 4-1. We didn't have Game 7.'
And Speights goes, 'You don't remember the Klay game??? Like Klay had a crazy game and made all those threes.'
Ezeli was like, 'Klay game? Klay? What game?'
And Speights was like: 'In Oklahoma City where the court is blue. Klay hit all those threes.'
Ezeli: 'Oh!!!
The Klay game!!!
