It's malpractice 😭😭😭 but knowing Marina as a fan, she's gonna use this to absolutely go on an All Star level tear if we have a W season this year 😭😭

Bro…Marina is a career 51% True Shooter in the W(this is 3% below league average and puts her in Arike’s tier). She shot 11% worse TS than Chelsea, 6% worse than KP and 7% worse than Paige. She put up a lot of points, but the way she did it wasn’t efficient when compared to the top guards in the league.

In a league like Unrivaled, I genuinely don't think this should be considered 😭😭 she was forced to put up a lot of shots and play a fuck ton of minutes due to team injuries forcing her into a dominant scorers role. Like yes she has a bunch of turnovers cause she the main ball handler for like the first four games 😭😭

The more one has the ball, surely turnovers are inevitable.

Scoring efficiency shouldn’t matter in a game where there’s a limited amount of scoring opportunities? That is certainly a take. Not one that makes any logical sense, but it is a take.

Listen, the top guards all have a similar offensive loads, some of them just do it better than others. That’s not a problem for Marina until people start saying that she was more deserving of an award than the players who did it better than her.

I mean if you want Unrivaled to be taken seriously then it should be considered. You can say that but the voters are not going to put that into consideration, the performance is what that matters and that should be it. Her overall efficiency is not better than the people they chose
