7th in win shares? I know it purely a stat but it's funny considering how many games they've lost.

LeBron
PG
Davis
Boogie
Harden
Curry

Kawhi
Giannis
Wall

Kawhi
Harden
Westbrook
Anthony Davis
Wall

He gotta make the playoffs, no excuse to not be able to win at least 42 games. Right now his numbers looking like Kevin Love when he was with the Wolves but Love ain't have Wiggins and Lavine.

He was statistically the worst center in the league when it comes to defense, which is one of the things that was supposed to be a strong point for him.

@Raul odd how you don't mention the shortcomings of your fellow Dominican

Do you watch him play?

Like seriously how often have you watched him play an entire game?

I watched 60% of the T'Wolves games this season and this guy is the farthest thing from a top 10 player. He's good at getting stats so if you play fantasy basketball I guess he's good but in terms of winning basketball dude sucks.

The T'Wolves were garbage in large part because he plays zero defense and they employ an offense where he and Wiggins are force fed the ball. Also he fights teammates for rebounds and rarely passes the ball. You need to look beyond the assist numbers and look at actual passes. Dude is a black hole when he touches the ball.

I respect these posts.
Except for the ones insisting on Paul George.
Stop trying to make PG13 happen. It's not going to happen.

I cant just blame him don't act like Rubio wasn't giving free lanes to the basket I got him right outside the top 10 though crazy thing is he is only 21

 

[the cool]

Karl towns plays absolutely zero defense. Dirk is a better defender right now


Towns is not top 20 in my book

 

[Swagnificent]

Wolves need a real coach who will employ an actual offense. Not this your turn my turn offense they ran this year.
