Payne is the worst in 7 games at 22 mins a game that could ever be. As a completely objective observer his stats have just been awful. I am really disappointed in him. Although he is averaging 6 rebounds in 22 mins, which we all know is a meaningless stat after having Love here and losing all those games.

Payne is awful - He is shooting 30% and average less then a block of 36 minutes a game.

As an example. Jeff Adrian basically has been fighting to be in the league and always averaged a double double on the 36 minutes basis.

Sample size, sample size, sample size. Do you realize if he makes his next 10 shots he will be shooting over 40%?

LOL...I thought cool was just being mathematical, but it turns out he may be prescient!

Hmm...wasn't he also the guy who guaranteed the first pick this year?

Isn't low 40% still crappy for a big guy?

Yes, if there isn't a healthy dose of three's included in there.

But I dare you to say that to Pek's face...come on, abe, I dare you!

Meh. I'd just get super close to Pek. He misses most often from there.

Zzzzzing!! Ouch. Time the fight and let it get under a minute left on the clock. He'll whiff almost every time.

If it's any solace, go look at Draymond Green's rookie year numbers.
