Chasson “Press X to Chasson” Randle: better than Derrick Rose?
According to Betteridge’s Law of Headlines, which states “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no”, the answer is no. According to reality, which states “Derrick Rose licks taint”, the answer is yes. Hm. A conundrum indeed! How are we supposed to figure out if Chasson Randle is better than Derrick Rose or not?
One thing we can look at is an advanced data structure known as a “box score”. The purpose of a “box score” is to evaluate the quality of distinct NBA players in a single game. I’m not an expert on “box scores”, but I know a little bit about how they work and how to interpret the enigmatic data contained within them. And what they say about the Randle/Rose debate is this: Randle scored more points in this NBA game than Rose did.
Seems pretty conclusive to me! Chason Randle: better than Derrick Rose.
