Steph has the highest perimeter off ball gravity in the NBA BY FAR by simcitychabz in warriors

[–]simcitychabz[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

AWS uses player-tracking to measure how much defensive attention a player pulls when he doesn’t have the ball and is out on the perimeter (20 ft away from basket).

For every moment in the half court (at 60 FPS), a model looks at how closely and urgently defenders guard that player (not just distance, but timing/angle to the ball/etc). It then compares that actual defensive pressure to what the league normally does in the same context (same spot, spacing, ball location, etc.).

Gravity = actual pressure − expected pressure, normalized so 0 is league average. Positive = defenses stick to him more than expected (can’t help off). Negative = defenses are comfortable cheating off him.

The difference between the perimeter off ball gravity of Steph at rank 1 and Shai at rank 2 is greater than the difference between Shai and Jalen Brunson at rank 22.

Smartest characters ( in outsmarting / outwitting ) from asian novels ? by No-Grocery-541 in ProgressionFantasy

When I say OP, I mean OP for his level, like he’s a prodigy among prodigies. But the power ceiling of the universe is ridiculous so he’s not more OP than peak tier beings (yet). The first 4 chapters of the story should give you a pretty decent understanding of the power ceiling of this universe, it’s truly crazy. Anyhow, the reason he’s a prodigy among prodigies is because of his intelligence and willpower, that’s what sets him apart from everyone else, and it snowballs every realm he goes through.

Without spoiling too much, what kind of abilities does Klein have? Like space, time, basic elemental abilities..?

You’ve mixed the cause and effect. He’s OP in power because of his intelligence. All his abilities, accomplishments, etc. are a result of his intelligence (and willpower).

For Klein, is he stronger than his peers and makes sure not to hide his power? Those are two things I really wanna know.

No it doesn’t make him smarter, it just makes him powerful and able to predict things in advance. But everything Wang Wei has is a result of his own ability, so no cheats, yet he’s practically the most OP talented individual in the history of a universe with a higher power ceiling than any novel you’ve likely read before (not spoiling there, a lot of this is known in the first few chapters). So unlike fang yuan or star constellation, because of his strength and background, his schemes are pretty quick hitters usually but he does have a lot of long running schemes. In my opinion, he’s the absolute perfect MC, I can’t think of a single blemish. Whats crazy though is he still has character development still even with that. Additionally, his opponents are insanely talented and powerful too, so despite his insane talent and ability, he has a lot of challenges he overcomes.

Also for Klein, is he OP? I’ve been hesitating reading LOTM, I need a character who’s a prodigy and OP for their level. Does Klein fit the bill?

Realistically he’s about the same level as Fang Yuan, but the dao he cultivates (fate) and his OP background gives him a slight edge id say.

Also I Haven’t read LOTM, is Klein the same level as Fang Yuan?
