re: KD vs LeBron 4th quarter performance in 2017 Finals

Passing the ball? He took almost 30 shots last night, he was taking 35 a game last year in the first few games. Assists are dependent upon the scorers opinion and is the most overrated stat of all. For instance the definition of an assist is a pass that leads to an uncontested score yet you have assist being given to players when the scorer has to finish over multiple players or has to pump fake take a dribble then shoot, these are not actual assist and you will hear older players talk about this a lot. The stats have to be accellerated to give fans interest because the league is so bad and watered down.
