Awesome stats article, good read. I'm actually very proud of my team to not be mentioned in any of the bottom 5 categories. I highly expect my turnovers to be heavily impacted however, with the recent loss of John Wall.

We are just average this year - not too good, not too bad. We are shooting really well but not nearly enough FGAs to actually win a lot of games and awful on TOs but that has something to do with Single Post offense. Maybe we are driving too much and that causes TOs

[Marcos_Beck]

Interesting to see that we're very close (if we don't actually have) a top10 offense and a top5 defense..
We need to focus on more ball movement (by acquiring a secondary playmaker would be a way, but I'm fine with low assistis if we keep shooting like we have so far).
Our 3 point shooting has been amazing.

I'd imagine how those stats were with Derrick on board. But the best thing is that there's still room to improve!

Yeah - your team HAS to come back down to earth from a 3pt% - all your guys are completely firing on all cylinders though and it's amazing to see.

Don't think you're going to be a 1st round exit this year.....

Your team is balling too my man.. Didn't expect you to make that kind of noise that early into ADs career but.. And you still have pieces to improve this team a lot!
Edit: well right now that Holiday trade don't look thaaaat bad I presume.. Haha

[GreenBear]

Just average on offense, but rebounding (+7.3 differential) and defense have us where we're at.

[Rizzo]

Another article just to reinforce how bad we have been this season.

Houston with a 16+ point difference is insane.

[emplep7]

Great article here man and it shows you why some teams are playing better than others. Not happy that we aren't rebounding at the same rate as last year, but also this shows that we need better FT and 3PT shooters on this team if we are going to go anywhere.

Glad to see us in the top 5 in turnovers and steals as our guard tandem of Jennings/Deron has been great this season in that department.

Houston with a 16+ point difference is insane.

I'm actually a little disappointed that we're giving up 100 points a game. This team was supposed to be built on defense first, with Harden doing all the scoring. I'm getting plenty more than I expected from Faried, Iggy, and Aminu offensively, but not quite as much defensively.

[Jestor]

Playing better than last year, but need to get my DC in this week.

Top team in SPG thanks to Thad and Oladipo!
