The NBA draft is dominating most content out there on the basketball web these days..so why not go ahead and join in on the phone. This is something intersting at Truehoop, based off some statistical research done by Synergy Sports.
Stephen Curry, Blake Griffin and Hasheem Thabeet by the numbers...
What it uncovers among other things though -
- Stephen Curry is good in isolation and transition but weak (right now) in pick and roll. Pick and roll being the majority of what teams do in the NBA that could be something to look for.
- Blake Griffin is a monster in post up and cutting opportunities but needs to bone up a little on his outside shot.
- And Thabeet gets a bad rep for not being an offensive player but according the numbers he actually proves to be a pretty effecient scorer in the low post..at least he was in college.
