NO ONE has shot like he is shooting now. I keep saying, over and over, that is accurate and undeniable. His pace is incredible. I was a fan of his at Davidson and the ONLY worry I had about him in the league was his body size and being able to take contact throughout the turbulence of an NBA career. He is on pace to be one of the greats. But saying he is that now...it discredits ALL those dudes before him who did it very very very well.
You're right that no one's hit them at the pace he has to this point...
But you know what they have done that he hasn't?
- hit more free throws at a higher percentage over time
- hit more 3pt shots in the playoffs
- shot at ~50% from the field for multiple seasons
I think he needs about 2 more seasons at this pace to be in the top 10. He's that good. But until that time...
