Does it?
Davis- 26.3ppg, 11.4rpg, 3.5bpg, 1.8apg, 2.17spg (12 games)
Olajuwon (3rd season)- 23.4ppg, 11.4rpg, 3.4bpg, 2.9apg, 1.9spg (75 games)
You want to take a bet over whether Davis will end up with much better numbers this season? Btw, the Rockets were the 6th seed in the West that year and Olajuwon ended up 7th in voting.
Did they not track turnovers and shooting percentage that year? Or you just decided to leave those out?
His PER is 36. Dreams highest was 27. The highest by any player for a whole year is 31.

Of course they did. You could have just looked, but I'll keep typing it all out. Davis is averaging 58%, Olajuwon 51%. Davis 1.3 topg, Olajuwon was 3.0topg. Davis barely ever handles the ball though (witness his low apg numbers), so that's why his efficiency is so high.
You are going to be first person to ever elect a MVP based solely off of PER. It is a made up combination of stats. It speaks of nothing as to how the player elevates the team or the impact that player has. But like I said, I can't convince you otherwise..
