Looking around very briefly on the WoW site and I found other guys who had about 15 wins produced:

Kobe – 15
Pau Gasol – 15.6
Gerald Wallace – 15.7
David Lee – 14.1
Brandon Roy – 15.3
Tim Duncan – 13.9

Good company to be in

Unless I missed it, there wasn’t a single mention of the new coaching staff in that article. Some of last year’s individual player numbers should be tempered by the reality of the Theus and Natt coaching regimes.

considering that most of us had no idea who he was when he was drafted!

These number geeks who want to quantify everything are missing the boat. I understand giving credit to JT, deservedly so, but without Tyreke, we have 1 or 2 wins this year, MAX. There is plenty T-Rek does that don’t show up in the box score, like driving and dishing that leads to the pass that leads to the open shot. Or keeping his man in front of him until there are 14 seconds on the shot clock and the opponent has to scramble for a decent shot. Or denying teams first option offensively. Or controlling tempo when pace gets hectic, getting team into play set, instead of forcing action. Little things like that are huge.

Rose versus Tyreke will be fun tomorrow. The Bulls are not playing well, I like our chances.
