That's fine and dandy until you take a look at their scoring efficiency, and realize one of those players is not like the others. And sadly, it's not Thomas. 53% 57,5%, 57,6% 62,5%, 60,06% 64,9%. 3-4% is a very big gap in TS%, the league average is around 54%, Monta is below that, you jump up 3%, and at around 57%, you see the very efficient scorers in the league. You jump another 3% and around 60% (and above) you'll see the absolute elite, often all-time great scorers, like Dirk for example. So yeah, raw numbers are nice, but they don't paint the most accurate picture. Ok, i'm going to just let it go, i guess i made my argument too many times already, it's not like i'm going to convince anybody. Hopefully Monta will shut me up in a week or so anyway.
