re: Why does the media have some weird love affair with Aaron Craft?

eah, and Erving Walker is the career assists leader at UF.

Did you overlook the per game stats I posted?


Fail.

whoops

still, per game stats are inflated for four year starters as well, so my point stands

Now I get why you think Craft is overrated

8? Maybe not. Close to 8? Yes. Intangibles have to be factored into how good of a player you are. I think he's top 15, with a case for top 10. He's the best player on a top 5 team right now

so, in other words, you're delusional and can't objectively judge the basketball abilities of a close friend

got it

So a bigger sample size produces less accurate statistics?

Uh, no, that's not what I said.

We're not talking about efficiency stats (like per minute stats) here. We're talking about per game stats. Of course, the players who played more minutes are going to average more assists per game.

He's played 30+ minutes every season in his four years at Ohio State, so of course he's going to have high career per game stats compared to two-year starters.

All the greats that played in the Big Ten didn't play 30+ minutes their entire career.

Ok, got it.




You are what, 15 years old? That's your mental capacity.

I bet a good portion of them didn't.

A lot of great basketball players rode the bench as freshman and sophomores only to break out as juniors and seniors.

Craft's value goes beyond the stats for OSU IMO. He may have stats similar to Wilbekin but he's a better all-around package.
