OKC should trade Giddey because yikes.

Hali dropped from 3 to 7 because of his bad game last night. Too early in the season to care about this when it swings so hard on a game to game basis IMO

Things that stand out:

• Jokic #1? He is good but best in the league good?

• Steph #5

• Haliburton #7

• Mitchell #8

• Doncic #14

• Booker #15

All of these guys are extremely high. Not saying they are all “bad defenders” but definitely average or below average.

• Players ranked below Trae Young: Bam, White, Butler, Suggs, Caruso, OG, Turner, Davis, McDaniels, Draymond, Gobert

• Dort is not on here?

Like you said, the sample is still small, so I won’t write it off yet, but so far, I am not impressed with this stat.

Interesting to look at Offensive EPM as well. Has the top offensive players as:

1. Jokic

2. Hali

3. Luka / Steph (tie)

4. Embiid

5. Booker

6. Fox

7. SGA

8. DMitch

9. Lebron/KD

Seems to be pretty damn accurate for the season so far tbh.

Only players in the 90th percentile for both Offensive and defensive EPM (OFF/DEF percentile):

• Scottie Barnes (92/100)
• Chet Holmgren (90/99)
• SGA (97/95)
• Embiid (98/92)
• PG (93/91)
• Lebron (97/90)

Hey Magic fans… Goga Bitadze is your highest ranked player at 33 right now… I haven’t had a chance to watch one of your games this season, but… Does that match the eye test?

I wish people knew how to format on Reddit:
