No, you're reaching. All you have is 4 games, 1 of which is on 39% shooting. Most of his double-doubles were on terrible shooting percentages (like Chuck-brook's triple-doubles last season). He was shooting at 38% when Arron was out. He's still only at 42.5% with both 'Melo and Arron to distract defenses. Not to mention the other great shooters on the team. He's a poor shooter. He didn't have those big games against anyone. He's mediocre and doesn't deserve the attention. Towns and Okafor are crushing him on both ends, with no superstars to distract defenses, giving them open looks, no Rolo to box out for them, and while defending much better players. Yet, they're not sniffing the attention KP is getting. :snoop:

Lin was averaging 25 points a game against elite teams and hitting game-winners regularly (not 1 in 18 games) during Linsanity.

It's funny that you keep bringing up the superstar that makes KP's life so easy...That superstar looks a lot better with KP next to him this season.


:yeshrug: but you're stuck on his FG% as his isn't HIGHER than Melo's. Kid is 9th in the league in BPG and 13th in RPG, that's just facts. He's 8th in the league in Double-Doubles too. There's no mental gymnastics necessary here, no special circumstances or explanations necessary. He's doing numbers that rank him among top players in the league, PERIOD. The more you try to make excuses for his numbers the more biased you sound. But I'm assuming this is a waste of time because Robin Lopez is making the kid block shots and rebound at rates most players don't see in their careers...dude is a miracle worker:snoop:

Okafor hooking off on fans half his size like that scene in Don't be a Menace might be a blessing in disguise for these cats. They won't trot out two C's and try to make it work like Fisher does with our bench way too often. Could be a tougher game. Robert Covington is my dude too, I'd love to see him on our squad some day.
