Check the stats. The game is about more than SportsCenter highlights. Fields is one of the best rookies in NBA history.

Fields 10 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 2 apg, with 52% FG, 37% 3pt, 73% FT. One of the best rookie players ever? I dont think so.

Griffin 21 ppg, 12 rpg, 3 apg, 51% FG, 50% 3pt, 58% FT. The only think Fields wins in is FT%. I think you need to check the stats and get your head straight that Fields is not the most amazing rookie ever. He's good but not as good as you think

I checked the stats
Griffin averages 20+ pts and 10+ rebounds and 3 assists.
Landry Fields is a good player but only averages 10 pts , 7.5 rbs and 1.9 asts.
Fields is definately NOT one of the best rookies in NBA history. You are a homer(one who has heavy and unrealistic favoritism towards their own team. EX: You and a knicks player)

i'm talking about advanced metrics that actually mean something. Mike James and Ricky Davis have averaged 20ppg before.

lol @ the guy citing 3pt% as if griffin's percentage on like two attempts matters at all

Show me those "advanced metrics". No matter what you have, you simply can not prove that Fields is far better than Griffin. Just admit it, you said something dumb and you are wrong. Fields is NOT one of the best rookies in NBA history, not even close. With this being said, I think Landry Fields is a great player.

Fields - .296
Griffin - .255

TS%
Fields - 61.3%
Griffin - 54%


There are plenty of stats that show Griffin is better as well. One of the reasons people think Landry Fields is so great is because he does it in over half as many possessions as Griffin. So while it's easy to say oh Griffin avgs over 20 ppg, he does it with twice as many possessions. Which player you'd rather have depends greatly on the needs of your team. If you need a playmaker who can score a lot with a high usage rate, then you want Blake Griffin. If you want a player who can still play extremely well without the ball in his hand all the time and who is also extremely effecient, you want Landry Fields on your team.

As far as who deserves rookie of the year, you can't give ROY to Fields for the same reason you can't give the MVP to Joakim Noah or Anderson Varejao. These players are great and they are incredibly valuable to their teams, but they don't have a high enough usage rate to justify making them the MVP/ROY. There's no guarantee they'd be able to put up equal numbers if they did have a higher usage rate either. Most players are who they are.

Kobe is not in the the top 10? Are you sure about that?
Iverson's prime is far over and he doesn't even play in the NBA anymore.

i'm sure about that..i just hate kobe..he knows that lebron james is better than him he is just selfish..and doesnt have any respect..kobe sucks i know that allen iverson is in turkey but always kobe will neva be the best..shaq helped kobe win 3 rings..shaq left because kobe thought he was the leader of the team which shaq was the leader..if it wasnt for pau gasol, derick fisher and andrew bynum and ron artest kobe wouldnt be nothing..lebron is gonna take all the scoring records in the nba record book..lebron is close to 20,000 points in his 8th season which took kobe about 12 to get 20,000...kobe hogs the ball alot lebron loves to share the ball..he makes his teamates look good
all consider kobe byant suck and lebron james is the best


anyone have any comments?
