0/0/0 guy round by 100s

This is actually the exact mistake people make about his debut season. People say he averaged 20-5-5.

But in reality, iirc, he averaged something like 20.9-5.9-5.6. Which is a 21-6-6 season to me.

Which makes it an even more insane debut season for a high schooler on the worst team in the league.

After adjusting LeBron James’ stats and removing outliers to project the future, he heavily regresses to around the level of 2005 Smush Parker

Not with a “point-four” after it

Interesting considering he averaged 10+ in the playoffs more often than not. His playoffs career average is 10.0.

We don’t do decimals in the I Promise school curriculum

They can trade him to Dallas for AD and some picks

Unpopular opinion, I don’t think anyone who played didn’t play since at least the 80s is a top 10 player. Take Wilt and Russell out completely. They’re lucky if they’re top 50.

Theres simply no argument for him as the actual greatest player ever.

Is he? Kobe, Shaq and Duncan played this century. Joker is continuing build his legacy. That’s not even counting MJ who also technically fits. People try and use titles to shoe him in, but that’s a team accomplishment. Yes, winning titles are part of the all time great conversation. Steph is probably top 15. However, context starts to matter once you start breaking it down. The Warriors were loaded, Steph played poorly in 2 Finals, KD won mvp in 2. Steph under preformed or was the 2nd best player on his team in 4 of his 5 Finals. Is Steph an all time great yes, but not close to the Goat.  6 guys who have both more MVP’S and FMVP’S than Steph. It’s 9 if you count Russell and Wilt who would be there if there was a FMVP during their whole career, plus Dr J if you count ABA. Then Duncan, KD and Joker who have more combined of both and Kobe tied with 3 combined MVP’s. Obviously, MVP’s are voted on and can be controversial and I would rank Steph ahead of a bunch of these guys, but it’s really prisoner of the moment to think Steph is in the conversation with MJ, KAJ and LeBron. A lot if guys have had careers on par with Steph. Basically, if Ky and Love are healthy in that 1st Finals this isn’t even a conversation, we would all just agree Steph was somewhere in the top 30

Oh is that so, didn’t know curry played defense

Bron, Duncan, Kobe are all without question better

I mean hes in the club right now, thats just a fact. Yeah no shit theres a pretty good chance he’ll leave the list if he plays 15+ seasons, although he is one of the best scorers in the league.

Can you fit 125 basketballs in your car? No. There’s no such thing as .8 basketballs

I’m convinced

The rounding system you use is appropriate to why you’re producing the numbers. There is no “one size fits all rule” to rounding.

With the average basketballs per car example for instance I probably would say that it changes and you’d use something like 2 decimal places since “the average car” doesn’t really exist, right? It’s a mathematical conceit.

My point really was just to illustrate the existence of flooring and the kind of situation where it’s usually preferred to alternative rounding schemes. Flooring doesn’t get enough respect!

I view as a threshold instead of a rounding number

There are general nba stat clubs/baselines that use thresholds instead of rounding

If he’s averaging 26.450 and you see people thinking that rounds up to 27, just don’t respond to them. It’s not a logical person
