LeBron easily leads the league in "no free throws" PPG

[Im Still Ballin]

Look at how comfortably ahead of everyone else he is. Giannis and Embiid are way behind him.

Who seriously fvcking cares.

There's a reason we never hear about this stat, because it's uninteresting and there's many reasons why it would be the case...doesn't have to be a conspiracy against him either.

LeBron is NOT interesting, get a fvcking life

Free throw rate

Giannis 61.2%
Embiid 58.2%
DeRozan 40.2%
Durant (a ****ing jumpshooter) 35.0%
Morant 34.7%
Luka 33.6%
Trae 33.5%
Jokic 32.2%
LeBron 26.5%


Just comical how little LeBron gets to the line. "LeRef" doe

[Johnny32]

Of course you wonder because apparently you can't go a single topic without bringing up Lebron's daddy.

[Full Court]

Now an intelligent, thinking person would infer from that stat than Giannis and Embiid get much more defensive attention that Lebron.

And an intelligent, thinking person would further infer that the reason for that is because Giannis and Embiid are far greater offensive threats than Lebron.

I would rather a player gets to the FT line consistently, than not.

A real-world example is Jimmy Butler is a waaay better scorer than Tyler Herro.

A guy who can stop the clock and allow the defense to get setup and/or stops the clock in clutch time when playing from behind is better than a guy who's good at making shots.

[StrongLurk]

Shows that Bron is underrated as a scorer. He has never relied on free throws compared to a lot of the other big scorers over the past decade, especially so over the last 5 years.

His free throw rate is much lower than it should be.

So is his FT % in the clutch.

Also leads the league in uncalled offensive fouls

[John_Connor]

luka doncic sucks and hes averaging like 40/50/50 .. nobody cares. this era sucks

[Spurs m8]

Also leads the league in uncalled offensive fouls

Ain't this the absolute truth :roll:

[TheGoatest]

Holy shyt!
I would've guessed that he is leading the league if you take away free throws, but I wouldn't have thought that it was by this much.
The difference between LeBron at #1 and #2 is as great as the difference between #2 and #18.
He is just incredible. Just imagine if he got the calls he even remotely deserves. :eek:

[GimmeThat]

on a team that's 4th in pace and gets out rebounded by 2.3 and out attempt by 1.6.

the good ole' saying of let the star get his and freeze out the rest of the team on a border line playoff team holding true

[Full Court]

It's pretty simple. His impact at this point is so low that there's no reason to foul him.

Seriously. These guys shoot more FTs than him because they attack the ****ing basket more than he does because they're not 100 years old.

Lebron also plays ~37 mpg to average 29 ppg. Embiid, Jokic & Giannis only average around 33.

PPG per 100 possessions

Bran - 37.9
DeRozan - 38.5
Jokic - 38.9
Durant - 39.0
Doncic - 39.1
Giannis - 43.4
Embiid - 45.0

So no, Bran is nowhere near the best scorer in the league. He plays more minutes and the Lakers play at the 4th fastest pace, compared to Philly being ranked 27th in pace.

[Airupthere]

Nobody tries to guard lebron nowadays. Plus he gets away with stiffarming, offensive fouls and travel far too often. At this point, his offensive arsenal just consists of nitpicking easy points and taking advantage of his size and an open game.

[ShawkFactory]

More importantly, look at Trae. People thought he couldn't play without spamming FTs.

[Bronbron23]

Look at how comfortably ahead of everyone else he is. Giannis and Embiid are way behind him.

So know we're giving lebron props for avoiding the free throw line like the plague in the 4th?

Man ya'll bron stans be on one lately :oldlol:

No one that list attacks the hoop more than LeBron besides Giannis and Jokic quit making stuff up.
