So now we are equating DJ's 7 games started to EP's 44 as being statistically significant (or significant in any way).  If I had more time to show the board your love of cherry picked stats perhaps the collective basketball intelligence wouldn't be at an all time low here.  

For the season, Augustin's on-off #s are +.9. Payton's are -5.2.

I am not a huge fan of the trade or anything, nor do I hate Payton- but the team has seemed to work better with Augustin this season over Payton, and that is from both a statistical level and from the eye test.

Ohh Co mon. You are overreacting a little. To early yet to put Hennigan’s brand on him. 

I am not happy with what I have seen but cant completely count them off until I see what happens in the offseason. 

 

More mismanagement of assets

I never argued that we struggled as a team with X, Y, or Z on the floor.  It's the continuous presentation of skewed stats that the less knowledgeable latch on to as gospel because it comes from a moderator that's the problem.  Being the lead guard on the team, Payton's numbers are going to be reflective of overall team performance, as will DJ's.  This isn't unique to Payton or the Magic.  Perspective is key, and it's lacking in large quantities.

No.  I shouldn't have done that.  That was mean.  You must be really hurting today Murphy.  

Are you going to move to the phoenix board or just choose a new player here to blindly overvalue to an absurd degree

For me is the eye test and my eyes( after Lasix surgery) tells me that EP is not any better that DJ. At least for the rest of this year. And if you think I am wrong then better off, as it Will bring more loses. Cant hurt the tanking.

I have no issues with anyone who feels someone is better than someone else.  People have had more problems with my opinions than the other way around.  I just want to win baby.

Please cite instances where I have overvalued Payton.  Quotes, links, please.  I've only ever tried to provide balance to the absurdity you foster.  

And fwiw I feel good, that bandaid was torn off a while ago.
