Carmelo Anthony is the last great American ball hog

The article is too long and has too many graphics to post here. But it is an interesting read about the evolution of the game in the post-Jordan age.

ESPN stay on some bullshyt....

James Harden?

He’s a ball hog but he still averages near double digit assists. Melo has a career avg of 3 ast per game and has only averaged over 4 once in his career. Most years he’s below 3.

Donovan Mitchell

James Harden?

I'm surprised as much as TheColi speak on BronBall nobody here has mentioned him...yet anyways.

LeBron and Harden have the ball in their hands more than 90% of the PGs in the league. The difinition of the ball hog.

Thats the NEW definition. It used to be strictly for players who put up a lot of shots and don't pass. Ya'll decided to change it to "player that brings the ball up the floor that I don't like"...

ESPN saw that Bron was thinking of bringing Melo in and decided to write something up quick to put the breaks on that

CACs in analytics ruined the NBA
