It’s crazy that we were talking about his efficiency early in the season as being absurd and he’s only gotten better. 

For reference in their rookie years:

• Steph 4.8 3PA 43.7%
• Klay 4.1 3PA 41.4%
• Allen 3.6 3PA 39.3%
• Harden 3.3 3PA 37.5%
• Lillard 6.1 3PA 36.8%
• Ant 7.2 3PA 32.9%
• Luka 7.1 3PA 32.7%

Those just players that came to mind. Insane volume, but very much so justified in both efficiency and development. Won’t be surprised if he ends up chugging 15 attempts later in his career.

This team is like an alternate dimension Warriors team, like Spiderpig is to Spiderman.

Has to be. Flagg is amazing and will probably be the better player.

But Kon is much more efficient, on a better team headed for the playoffs, playing more games, and not far behind at all in counting stats.

It’s not the highest ceiling of the year award and I really hope voters don’t get caught up in that “what will people think in ten years” bullshit.

For sure. Going into the all-star break I was firmly on Coop’s side but idk how you can argue against Kon now

It would be disrespectful to Buddy’s memory to attempt something like that.

337 3s in 63 Games is crazy

So he may end up in the top 6, potentially top 4-5 for a player’s best 3 shooting season.

The craziest thing to me about this stat to me is it’s basically just Curry and then everyone catching up years later lol

1028 3PA from Harden in ²⁰¹⁸⁄₁₉ is still insane to me

¹⁵⁄₁₆ Curry was peak

Draftkings legend Malik Beasley

He’s averaging 4.2 a game over the last 15 which would put him at 296. Requires 4.5 a game to hit 300 - which would put him at 11th.

If he somehow gets one or two more with a flame thrower game and gets more than Klay’s best in his rookie year and cracks top 10..

if 2021 wasn’t shortened, could steph has broken his record? he has 337 in 63 games out of 72

Actually what the fuck is Curry man

Paul George sighting, shocked

What the hell happened to Buddy Hield 3point shootings?

Curry with the insane 402 at .45 shooting

It’s a little more than that, if we had drafted Kon 5 years ago we probably would have ruined him lmao

Kon really is in a perfect spot to have an all time great rookie season

• He’s starting his career in an era that emphasizes 3’s over 2’s
• He’s on a team that is #3 in 3PA
• The team’s best player is a playmaking PG that is an excellent passer
• The team’s two best scorers have missed multiple games which allowed Knueppel to make mistakes early and to take as many shots as he wanted.
• From last season’s top 10 3PA, ⁷⁄₁₀ players have missed multiple games due to injuries.
• Oh and Knueppel is really good as well

Thank our Celtic overlords for the pleasure of coach Charles Lee and their system lol

Only when Steph isn’t playing lol.

Extremely, steph is still the best

When Steph is out. When Steph is playing he’s still pretty easily the best

It’s a room temperature take. I tend to agree with you. His potential is scary.

It’s easily backed up by statistics so no not a hot take.

Most 3PMs in the league and a better 3P% than everyone in the Top 70 in 3PA and Top 40 in 3PM.

He shoots with volume AND efficiency

He doesn’t really take a lot of low quality shots unless he has to; contested, sure, but rarely bad looks. He just makes the right basketball play. Some of that is because he’s not the first (or second) option on offense, most of that is because his BBIQ simply won’t allow him to take shitty shots lol. He’s like the anti Lamelo. He honestly should be pulling the trigger more than he already is.

It’s funny we’ve tried every imaginable nickname for him that involves a K and “white boy from Charlotte” is gonna be the one that sticks.

What a nightmare it would to end up a 2 or 3 seed and run into Charlotte this year.

Only two people have ever done that across four seasons lol. You’re way too lost in the spreadsheets if something needs to be a top-5 season all-time to be impressive to you.

Hes over 30 ahead of 2nd place. I think that alone is impressive.

Why compare across seasons when you can compare directly within.
