thats interesting.
i cant think of a single player who has more 30 foot buzzer beater 3's than lebron currently in the nba.

And with points you get 2 + 1-1 FG shooting presented in the stat sheets vs 1 under the AST stat sheet.
its because he passes up an easy shot, to get a more difficult one off of an assist. like he passes up an open lay-up, to pass it to a teammate for an open jumpshot. its a tougher shot

2 jordan plays like jordan no matter how bad of a shooting night he is having...and rose stiill hoisted 3s, he just happened to make them this time.
How dare he compare Lebron James to THE Derrick Rose! Blasphemy! Just look at Rose's resume. Nuff' said.

Ive seen Rondo get the shit blocked out of him many times while trying to finish these so called easy lay ups, he does pass up some that look like he had it easy but maybe he thought someone was coming up behind him. The amount of times Lebron and others have swatted him when he thought he was safe outweighs his passes off where we watching perceive he has no pressure.
Also the fast break ones, he gives it to a scorer on his team, scores get in rhythm when they score... Easy buckets = rhythm no matter how much ya wanna say, they're professional athletes come on it ray allen he's one of the greatest shooters of all time that dunk isnt gonna motivate him...

i would disagree, i think he would be a much more efficient player if he looked to score more, but thats just me, and i can understand you disagreeing with that.
however on him getting blocked, i think he gets blocked a lot, because he doesnt go up strong, he rarely finishes strong through contact, or attacks the basket looking to get a foul. i think hes afraid to shoot freethrow, similar to andris biedrins, i have heard a lot of people in the media say that they have been told, that he hates shooting fts because he sucks at it. i think if he wasnt so afraid to shoot fts, he would attack the basket more, and get fts and be a more efficient player.

Re: How Exactly Do You Stat Pad?
rebound shots at the end of quarters
pass to a teammate on a 2 vs 0
miss a put back to catch it and put back the next one
demand the ball in fouling situations
jack shots in garbage time
score 'meaningless' buckets (when games have already been decided)
excel during non-crucial points in the game

Really never got why this was ever considered padding. So if you went for the 2 points on a 2-on-0, or in some cases a 2-on-1, you're a real player, but if you make the 1 assist, you're a stat-padder? These situations are exciting to watch precisely because there are two players racing down the court. Nothing wrong at all with sharing the love in this situation, and it encourages team play to reward a teammate for hustling down the court with you.

I hear ya, I was just trying to think of a way to stat whore for assists.
maybe this scenario: you have 12 pts 10 rbs and 9 assists and are all alone under the hoop but instead of laying it in you wait for your teammate to come down and give him the ball.
