I actually really like this kind of list because it’s not claiming that one player is better than the other it’s just ranking snapshots of their season so far. For example SGA is my favorite player. Do I think he’s better than Giannis overall? Not really. But is he having a better season so far? Yeah. I think this is a great way to acknowledge what players are doing without having to definitively say that one is better than the other.
@@yodahekidanu9006 I mean comparing a guard’s stats to a big’s stats is always a weird comparison because they do such different things but looking purely at the numbers the only basic statistical categories that Giannis is clearly ahead of SGA in are rebounds and blocks. I haven’t looked at advanced stats so maybe those favor Giannis but my original comment wasn’t about just stats. The Thunder and the Bucks have basically the same record rn. Going into the year which one of those teams would you have said is better? That’s why I think SGA has had a better season so far. The Thunder go as he goes and as of right now they are second in the west, where nobody thought they’d be.
@@spencerwarner9268 before the season started I think most people would of put the thunder as a playoff team, they weren’t considered so much worse than the bucks. The thunder are also doing worse than the bucks record wise. So because the bucks have a higher winning percentage and Gianni’s have marginally better stats (pts,rebounds,true shooting etc), I would put him over shai, slightly.
@@yodahekidanu9006 aight bro. They are both great players so I’m not gonna argue with you in TH-cam comments or try to talk down on Giannis. I know what he’s doing all I was saying is the bucks (who were a lot of people’s championship pick) have the same number of losses and one more win (because they’ve played one more game) than the OKC Thunder (who a lot of people said would make the playoffs as like the 7th or 8th seed). That combined with the fact that he doesn’t have anybody of Dame’s caliber on his team to take defensive pressure off him and he’s still putting up mvp type numbers is why I said I believe Shai has had a better start to the season.
It's pretty crazy Scottie is at 30, especially when you see the group he has to work with, and the limited spacing, he must feel like he's back the college with a shrunken floor.
they have him come off within the first 6 mins, and run a offence that him and 4 bench players, and our bench sucks terribly, and we got a less then 20% 3pt shooter spacing the floor for him, and pascal shooting like less than 10% recently
he has a good group wdym, hes just stealing all the usage and stat padding rebounds. no reason 6'6 scottie should be out rebounding their center + pascal combined unless hes trying to stat pad.
@@sethc2241 Dude, do you even watch Raptors games? His usage rate is 20%, which is very low for someone who should be the number one option. And a lot of Scottie's rebounds are him actually going up and snatching them, not to mention 1/3 of his rebounds are offensive rebounds 🤦♂
by your own comment , so 2/3 of his rebounds are defensive bounds. Bro is 6'6 he should not be getting that many defensive rebounds over 6'8 pascal and 7'1 poeltl lmao. thats 6 defensive rebounds and 3 offensvie a game. STAT PADDING. And you also lied about his usage which is 23.9. He shouldnt be the first option to begin with players like pascal and OG. But on top of that to pretend like the players on his team arent good is dumb af. He is just eating into their counting stats. @@SparklingHarmony
Man shout out to Big Val. Glad the numbers show just how important he is. Also, I love the pure, no bias look of this ranking. Hard to argue with numbers.
Agreed, I love seeing lists and rankings like this based solely on numbers. I like eye test lists too but it's refreshing to see, by the numbers, who's who. Do wish defense played a bigger part but I'll take it. Luka with a first half trip dub and Embid with 50 the day this video drops is fitting as well.
This list just further proves that the eye-test is all that matters in the NBA. Having BI below Sabonis and Fox is laughable. The Pels beat the Kings 3/3 this year, including 1 by 40 points, and BI was the best player on the court all 3 games.
"Hard to argue with numbers." I don't think it is "hard to argue with numbers" there are games where if I look at the boxscore, it'll say one thing, if I see the game I walk away with a completely different opinion. I've seen a clip recently where a team was allowed a timeout when they didn't have possesion, when it was a 2 point game with like less than 10 seconds left. These numbers seem to be very heavily reliant on wins, so imagine one team has 2-3 wins that it really shouldn't have. Games are sometimes decided by 1-2 points, and multiple bad calls and foul trouble or ejections can have huge impacts on games. Anyways a win here, a win there, and this list would probably look way different (also any team that shouldn't have lost would now have a win where they had a loss) like there are times when someone can look at a boxscore and think one thing then if they see the game, they might see a charge called where it should've a blocking foul. A couple of charges can put a player into foul trouble and limit their minutes. While a blocking foul likely would give them free throws.
stats in general are useful, relying on a single stat that ignores so much is not. especially since the metric seems to be almost entirely based on game score, which is just putting standard box score numbers through a formula. If you are going to use stats alone to rank players imho you need to at least look at basic on/off numbers and how their team offense and defense looks when they are on the court. Basketball games aren't won simply by box score numbers.
Hey man I love the respect for SGA and all but I do think that Luka Doncic should be higher on this list with the amount of shots he’s been hitting and having a really good start to the season basically carrying a poverty franchise to at least a playoff spot is insane, I mean Luka is like the modern younger less athletic whiter and heftier version of Lebron
Ant still has a way to go, but he is getting some light due to Minnesota being ranked 1st in the west. Halliburton is fun to watch, Shai is top 3 MVP right now, may change as season progresses.
Definitely not true when you think if todays NBA like 95% of people are gonna think Lebron, Curry, Ginnais and probably KD but I can definitely see ANT being in that conversation in the future and Shai
Causal fans have no idea who these guys are, except maybe Ant, because they haven’t made the playoffs expect for the wolves but they’ve only played in the first round
Derrick White tho where he at tho 👀 ? * Leads NBA in net rating (+14.5) * Shooting: 50-42-88% * On pace for 100+ blocks, 100+ steals + 200+ made 3s (never been done) * Celts: 22-4 when he plays Got him for Langford, 1 expiring, late 2022 1st (Blake Wesley) + a top-1 protected 2028 swap so basically got him for nothing and he's ballin out like a star
Nah, gobert at 46 is whack. He's so obviously better than so many players ranked higher than him. devin booker at 27 is just as ridiculous if not moreso, he's much better than that.
I may be biased but I think booker is honestly a top 10 player in the league if not top 15. He's easily the best SG and is proving to be a quality PG as well from his time learning from cp3
as a suns fan, sometimes it really doesn't. Booker has been hated his entire career and it still shows with him being ranked in this list at 27. which is absolutely the worst thing i've ever seen regarding him lmao.

Smart article by Bleacher Report. Like Kenny said toward the end of the video, it's all stats so people can't really argue against it, but rankings get people clicking and talking.
I appreciate you talking through/reiterating the methodology throughout. It’s nice to have something like that as a basis of discussion. But yo Dame should be up there with Giannis if we don’t care about defense 😅🦌 bucks in 6
Franz and Paolo being in the 40s in this ranking makes sense. The methodology focuses on offense. And the magic dominate on defense so they don’t produce high offense stats.
Bridges should be much higher imo. He’s the best perimeter defender in the league, has been averaging about 30 ppg over his last 10 games, and has led the nets to a solid 11-9 record.
What’s tht site he showed one time where u can click on stats and u can watch them. Like in a game log, I can click on curry 3pt attempts, and I can watch all the shots?
It’s wild cause my hot take before the year was that Chet would win ROTY & come close to eclipsing a Top 20 player in the league….. I was told I was crazy
the thing is these are some weird stats, and they heavily rely on team success, which okc is doing very well, so in an actual ranking after this season, he would probably rank a decent bit lower
Respectfully….you are wrong about the KAT being the best wolves player rn. Edwards has been that guy and you said he hasn’t made a jump but that’s statistically. If you watch you would know he has made a huge jump from last year. KAT been playing great rn ngl but I’d say even gobert has been better than towns. Towns playing well for sure tho and that is a big part of why we are number 1 seed rn
Omfg everyone going on about shai this was based of the advance stats so you can’t argue about him not deserving to be 2 when it was based off stats like is shai better than giannis no but this season so far yes there can be a legitimate argument for it
Im young so i've been following the league from 2009. In that time i have never seen a player have a debut season with such maturity amd readiness to lead his team to playoff success as Chet Holgrem. I know everybody watching Wemby and he is amazing, but i am mesmerized with Holgrem, he is such a perfect playerm
I will never understand why you guys are unable to evaluate players in the moment of the given season. Yes we know Giannis had amazing run in the playoff 2 years ago, but it doesnt erase the fact there have been struggles with bucks in beggining of the season cause of dame trade. IN THIS SEASON IN THIS MOMENT, shai has been the second best performer in the league, its so obvious. Nobody is saying he is better than giannis or this or that, its just about performance in first THIRD of the season. So chill
I haven't seen much of the 6ers this year, but last year all the comments I saw were about trading some crumbly cookie for Tobias Harris and now Tobias Harris is ranked as a better player than Kawhi, Butler, the $300 million dollar man Jaylen Brown He's 1 spot away from passing Devin Booker

Based on the metrics they put a large emphasis on assists and turnovers. Doncic is averaging 4 points more a game but Haliburton is averaging 4 more assists
As a Minnesota fan Ant is the best player on the wolves. KAT continues to be a guy who will pick up a bunch of dumb fouls and complain about the calls. Also they aren’t counting defense very high and Ant is a much better defender

As a Minnesota fan Ant is the best player on the wolves. KAT continues to be a guy who will pick up a bunch of dumb fouls and complain about the calls. Also they aren’t counting defense very high and Ant is a much better defender
I’m also a Timberwolves fan but where is Gobert at???
@@zeqa9 They said they weren’t valuing defense too much plus he is not the most versatile offensive option. So maybe that’s why
No Bane Jesus this guys so under appreciated
Prolly because the grizzlies are ass
It’s based on stats
Sengun is so good man
Gatta brush off ya hoodie Kenny, good video tho per usual tho ✊🏾
And we back.
Luka at 10 is insane😂😂(below maxi and bron come on man)
Rudy Gobert should be way higher.
4 Celtics. We better make it to the Finals!!
this list is the worst list iver ever seen tyreese maxey and lebron over Steph Luka Fox Edwards?????
based off this season buddy
lamello is crazy low. They put him under some legit bums. Wagner? Paolo? D'lo? MPJ? Jonas?
Love you Kenny
As a Kings fan having Sabonis over Fox is ludicrous and I love them both.
I’m guessing it’s due to efficiency. Fox isn’t inefficient but his 3pt percentage and free throw percentage isn’t amazing as a point guard.
Sabonis is a playmaker, don't be like coach Mike.
They just said defense wasn’t that important to this; this isn’t ludicrous
Didn’t fox miss some games?
People overrate shai like no other
