My apologies. Thought it was about Halliburton. Agree with your THT take!
Cyclones in the pros 2023-2024 (hoops)
- Thread starter I-stateTheTruth
- Start date
THT, no longer starting, played 21 MIN in a 16-point win for the Jazz over Portland last night. The rest of his line: 4 PT, 2-5 FG, 0-1 3PT, 3 AST and 2 TO.
Monte still has not made his debut with Detroit (lower back issues, I believe).

No problem. I didn't make it clear. THT and TH are too much alike. Need to stop being lazy and just spell out the whole name.
As kind of a stat junky Tyrese just keeps rising. I remember in these annual threads his rookie year saying "hey guys, statistically he might be a top 50 player in the world". Then for a couple years "He might be a top 25 guy in the world"...then top ten...this year looking at wholistic production he's definitely top 10 and and likely top 5. Beyond doubt he's producing like a top 5 player on offense.
- Assists, assist per game, assists per 48min, assist %...he's #1 there however you want to slice it.
- #56 in usage...this is actually great for such an elite player to be this low, it effectively means he does it all while not taking bad shots
- #3 Value over replacement. Behind only Jokic and Steph
- #2 Box Plus/Minus, only behind Jokic
- #2 Win shares per 48 minutes, only behind Jokic
- #2 Win shares total, only behind Jokic
- #1 Offensive win shares (he's in the arguement for best offensive player on earth)
- #3 Player Efficiency Rating PER, behind only Jokic and Embiid
This type of play is justifying that contract quite easily.

Loved watching Hali talk **** to the crowed in Philly after that last 3. Dude is ballin this year.
DB sighting! Deonte Burton is playing with - and starting for - the Stockton Kings in the G League. He hit 12 and 11 points in their first 2 games.
Iowa state has an MVP candidate in the NBA and NFL. I never thought I would say that.
The ceiling is/has always been there, but floor and walls been shaky. NBA GMs stay trying to defy gravity. It catches up though.
In the last 2 games, Tyrese has 32 assists and 0 turnovers. NBA record for most number of assists without a turnover.
If TH could somehow get Indy in top 3 in the east he'll be in the discussion.
The voters for that reward always get fatigue of voting for same guy over and over even though Joker has had MVP stats 3 years straight.
With no injury last year, Breece probably wins R.O.T.Y.
Georges shot 3-6 / 2-4 for 8 PT last night in 23 MIN in Cleveland's W at Portland. His shooting percentages have slowly crept up - now hitting 29% from 3.
Fly-by then a 3 for the Minivan:

And with a better OL he's maybe in the MVP discussion (although AR being healthy would probably win out by default).
Lindell Wigginton has been on the MIlwaukee bench this week, which means a better payday on those 2-way contracts, I believe. He got 2 minutes of mop-up time last night in the Bucks' win at Toronto.
Solid game for Georges last night as the Cavs beat to the Pistons (still without Monte) to move to .500: 27 MIN, 9 PT, 3-4 FG, 1-1 3PT, 7 REB, 2 AST, 0 TO and a game-high +21.

THT also had 9 PT in 19 MIN in last night's 3-point loss to the Suns. Shooting stats: 2-5 FG, 1-4 3PT adn 4-4 FT. He also had 4 AST and 3 TO. He also had this swat
