NBA PER and TS% stats
This is one of the biggest reason I think this is the most over-rated stat of all time.

Does anyone think he'd keep that performance up if he got more minutes? *crickets*

****ing hell you people are dense.
PER is fine. Lin plays 5.5 minutes per game, and apparently is very efficient during that time.
Do you think he'd keep that up if he got more minutes?

Re: PER
PER isn't really a stat, it's more of a barometer for all-around game.

He has played 20 minutes THIS SEASON. You MUST have a larger sample than that for
any stat to mean
anything . Its like a shortstop going 2-3 on opening day and your dumbass saying he is on pace to be the best hitter ever. Jeremy Lin is that SS. And NO ONE IS SAYING HE IS MJ.

*To qualify: a player must have played 6.09 MPG.
They should add Games Played into their qualification. Manu shouldn't be there with only 5 GP.
P.S. Millsap "technically" 4th behind LeBron, Durant, and Kobe.
Best PF in the league (according to PER
) .

But he should definitely be an All star this year.
