Quote:I'm not going to deny he's made improvements. I just don't think its a stat that fairly represents the actual situation just because of the relatively small sample size of what would be considered "garbage time" this season compared to last season. 

 

Yeah - you are missing my point while trying to make an unrelated one.  That's fine.  

 

 

I'm simply happy that we are able to see more respectable stats from the kid that aren't tainted by garbage time as much as they would have been last year at this point.  I'm really not attributing it to him  --  simply glad that we are seeing a purer stat line that also happens to be improved. 

 

Looking at his improved numbers and also not having to deduct so much garbage time stuff is a good thing. That's all.
