i dont remember hearing about giving up mathews and #10 along with lma in any of last summers fevered trade pitches, but whatevz yo essentially exactly
Outside of age/health, is there really a material difference between Klay Thomson and Kevin Martin? Aren't they basically the same player?
Those are pretty big differences. Martin can't stay healthy. He's never played a full season. I agree though, that Martin and Thompson are very similar. Martin was better though, when he was younger. He had a better all-around game. http://www.basketball-reference.com...m=0&p1=thompkl01&y1=2014&p2=martike02&y2=2007
@WojYahooNBA: Orlando is finalizing a trade to send guard Arron Afflalo to the Denver Nuggets, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
@WojYahooNBA: Orlando has agreed to send Arron Afflalo to Denver for Evan Fournier and 56th pick in 2014 Draft, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
I get push notifications when woj tweets. He's really the only person worth while to follow imo. If woj says it it's good, and he's never out of the loop.
DEN to ORL : "My motto? F*** Lotto. I'll get the seven digits from your mother for a dollar tomorrow"
Sounds like Orlando wants a late pick so that they can try to get something from a team like us with no pick... I don't want to get gouged.
wes mathews had a higher ts%, efg%, trb%, assist%, steal%, PER, WS, and ws/48 than klay last year also a lower TO% and USG, and shot more free throws at a higher percentage, with double the FTr basically, klay has 2 more ppg on 3 more shots per game, and blocks shots a little better. aside from that wes is more efficient in every possible way. ill concede klay might be a better defender, but its not by much.
I think we discussed it last summer, but Klay really isn't that much better than Wes (if at all). He's just much more hyped.
no doubt, i remember busting klays chops with stats LAST offseason. if anything wes has widened the gap.
And if you look at those stats I linked, Kevin Martin at 23 was a much much much better scorer. Much more efficient. The only thing Klay does better is shoot the three.
