The "Assist" is the MOST VALUABLE stat in the game, and here's why... (PROOF INSIDE!)

[Im Still Ballin]

By law of thermodynamics, 1 "Assist", can be worth no less than 2 points, and no more than 4 points.

∴ (a) 1-2 points = 0.5 "Assists" (x)

a = x

Lebron's 1 assist edge is cancelled out by turnovers - and he scores less with less offensive rebounds, so his only statistical advantage is [COLOR="Green"]defensive rebounds[/COLOR].

Lebron > Jordan

turnovers cancel out assist differential...

Incorrect!

We know that by the law of syllogism, 1 turnover ≠ any measure of points (x)

HOWEVER,

By law of thermodynamics, 1 "Assist", can be worth no less than 2 points, and no more than 4 points.

∴ (a) 1-2 points = 0.5 "Assists" (x)

a = x

Lebron's only statistical advantage is defensive rebounds..

His 1 assist edge is cancelled out by turnovers - and he scores less with less offensive rebounds, so his only statistical advantage is defensive rebounds

law of thermodynamics. lol.

Assists are secondary stats.

If you have 100 points

And your neighbour has 100 assists

Who has the higher value?
