I believe I want the same thing at ?FTW - for people to have good discussion and disagreement about basketball here. I think that can happen by saying when you think an argument is faulty or even outlandish without the accusations of malintent. Now maybe that’s not what he meant when he said it, in which case I’m making him aware that it is at the very least how I perceive it and it’s off-putting as a member of this forum. And frankly I think it’s a good reminder for all of us (myself included). 

Noted so let's move on.

Kemba was supposedly at Disney Springs last night.

Just so I’m clear, this is meant as a statement on the quality of an argument where the split is 60/40 instead of the purported 50/50 and not meant to malign his character at all? 

No. Saying something is 50/50 when it's really 60/40 is just a counting error. 

Altering a sample size to fit your hypothesis is intellectual dishonesty. 

It's like if I said "we should never draft a point guard in the lottery because they're almost always bad" and you contested that statement. And I responded: "Almost every point guard drafted between 2013 and 2015 is below average" that's intellectually dishonest because it's tailoring the data to fit my hypothesis instead of using a real representative sample.

How many NBA players have a bigger defensive impact than Isaac?

Definitely Gobert, Davis, horford, Kawhi, Draymond. 

After that though? 

Trae Young. Just give him time to develop on that end.
