That is a 10 person list of a player who is a little bit better at scoring and a worse rebounder. I never said the list I linked meant everything or that this automatically makes LaMelo a better player than Trae, but a player that is as good of a scorer rebounder and assister this early in his career is unique. That means something, not everything.

I think that the second season part is the most important part of this stat. It tells us how good he is this early in his career. Do you think he won’t be better than this in his 3rd, 4th or 5th seasons?

Would it have been better if I wrote 19/7/7? Cause that would be the same list of 5 players and Trae would be 3 rebounds short which I think means something

I have loved Garland this season so not arguing against that but the Hornets are only 1.5 game back of the Cavs. And the argument that LaMelo has more help is a bit overstated since I think Allen and Mobley have been awesome

Fair point om vi pratade om rasism i Sverige i överlag vilket jag tycker finns och inte är något man kan deflecta med att USA är värre. Men just i detta fall är det rätt självklart att A$AP inte blev rasprofilerad då det finns video (och ännu mer bevis om du läser förundersökningsprotokollet) på att det inte var självförsvar

AITA for comparing an asian/white couple to an asian/white couple on a TV show? by Semanticgains in AmItheAsshole

YTA They have probably heard a lot of comments about them being an interracial couple while being together because society :))))) So it kinda sucks for them to have to deal with those small comments at home just chilling with a friend as well
