That and it's pretty tough to say anything substantial about players in this list relative to one another, who operate in vastly different contexts.

it was my understanding the average half court possession resulted in .78 points... and also could lead to an offensive rebound possession. or a foul (dead ball) instance. meaning, .78 was the bottomline

obviously it's incorrect (and not possible) to suddenly take a guy and say 'you're getting all of our shot attempts'

he's not soft. he draws a lot of fouls. the jazz are not a soft team. harp, deron, millsap, ak; they're warriors. to a similar (albeit lesser) extent, so is brewer, knight, and collins.

the only true softy is carlos fukface

Houston might beat Portland in 6. They make teams look really inefficient.

LeBron - 38 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 0 turnovers
Rose - 50 mp, 36 points, 11 assists, 12/12 FT

im voting rose. i normally dont buy into the hype of this stuff, but he played the most minutes, of those players was involved in the only close game (so his performance "mattered more"), and he was being guarded by the likely All D 1st teamer Rondo (and the best defensive team). Plus throw in the fact he is a rookie and it was a ROAD game, and I give him the nod.

Chauncey was incredible and had "all d" paul on him, but the hornets are not the defensive team boston is and numbers-wise im slightly more impressed with rose anyway. Yao was a machine and awesome, and it's not like im asking him to do more, it just was he didn't play THAT much, and frankly, should've shot more. LBJ was "standard" in that we expect this of him, so a great performance is just normal from him. he will win the 'best game' honors soon.
