It’s time for “DTB’s Arbitrary and Misleading Stat of the Night”, this time brought to you by the boneheads who do the Charlotte Hornets broadcasts:
There are only 2 players who, on the season, have recorded 80 or more three-pointers as well as 50 or more blocked shots. The names of those players? Kevin Durant and Marvin Williams! Just goes to show that Marvin is definitely as valuable or even more valuable than so-called MVP candidate Kevin Durant.
God dammit.
Though a horrible and hackneyed stat, it was more relevant than usual tonight, as W-Marv channeled his inner Durant and put his team on his back for a little while there in the fourth quarter. To repeat: Marvin Williams, known draft disappointment, PUT his TEAM on his BACK. Has that ever happened before?
