Let's check in on the Magico's #1 pick, Paula Benchero, to see how he's doing

Post by LeBronMonsterDunk »

Paula:
22.8 ppg (not bad)
3.4 apg (yikes)
7.4 rpg (meh)
45.5% fg (awful)
26% 3pfg (yikes)

Now let's compare to LeGOAT in his 20th season at the age of 57

LeGOAT:
25.8 ppg
6.4 apg
8.9 rpg
46.3% fg
28.7% 3pfg

The young rookie is losing in every category to the smaller, 60 years older LeGOAT

Not good!

Record with him in lineup - .150 win percentage

Out of lineup - .428 win percentage

Another empty stat player (and not even that great at that). Makes no real impact.

Tragic with another swing and a miss

His first couple games he looked really good, but I haven't tuned in since. Those FG %s aren't very promising.

I do think he's going to be an all-star caliber player in his prime, but is going to track closer to "normal all-star path" than to Lebron-like at younger ages.

Efficiency is one of the things younger players struggle with that needs to be unkinked before hitting true star status.

To that end, Paolo's TS+ this year at age 21 is 94.

Lebron's was 106 at the same age. Durant was 112 (!).

His offensive BPM this year is 0.7.
Lebron at 21 was 7.5. Durant's was 6.3.

Chet, as of today, is 113. Fewer attempts, but still pretty crazy.

71st this year in PER though.

He's such a machine.

Note that Lebron was 2nd in PER at the same age in 2006.

That's why I used ranks and not raw totals, genius.

Paolo is 71st in his league.
Lebron was 2nd in his.

There's nothing to "try hard" about.

Who you take right now?
Wrecked

When reality doesn't suit your weak argument you always reach with per or some other irreleven crap. Paolo zero hype lebron non stop hype. Facts
Paolo a better shooter in year 2 than lebron. Fax

Reality shows Lebron already leading the entire NBA at the same age (21), where Paolo hasn't even clearly separated himself as the best player on his own team.

He's a better three-point shooter, sure.

Goofy worse from two (2PT TS+ 108 vs. 88) and the line (FT TS+ 99 vs. 89).

Adding it all up a TS+ of 106 vs. 94.

Lebron got 31 a game on a TS+ of 106.
Paolo gets 23 a game on a TS+ of 94.

LeBro's shooting numbers were nothing impressive UNTIL he teamed up with 2-3 HOFERS in Miami. Pablo doesn't have that kind of support around him.

Just saying...
"Today's NBA is soft, the Defense is weak, and the rules 'really' favor the Offense."

"Lebron doesn’t guard for a full game and our game plan was to get him to play defense and he left me open all game."
