Their numbers just don't add up

In basketball, not everything is quantifiable. That's why it can be misleading to judge a player's value solely by his statistics. Stats don't measure small but significant things like setting a solid screen or playing good positional defense. They don't measure intangible qualities like competitiveness or a positive attitude. FOXSports.com NBA editor John Galinsky lists 10 current players who put up big numbers but aren't as valuable as their stats suggest. Some are All-Stars. Some aren't. But for all these guys, the whole really is less than the sum of its parts.




Look at whos #1 and #2 :teeth::teeth::teeth:

wow the top 3 guys were 3- Al Harrington, 2- Jamal Crawford, and 1- Zach Randolph...that shows that big stats in NY doesn't mean anything. This scares me as a Knick fan.
