I think characterizing Booker as "one of the half-dozen most talented scorers in the NBA" is ridiculous. Is he a bright young player? Sure. Does he score the ball easily? Sure. Is he a top 6 scorer in the league? Ha.
Durant, Lebron, Beal, Lillard, Embiid, Steph, Luka, Giannis, Kawhi, Harden, Kyrie all have airtight cases above him, plus other up-and-coming people like Trae, LaVine, Ingram, Tatum, Brown, etc. A bit hyperbolic to say he is top 6. I don't think he is an all-star either, but that is obviously up for debate.
Always here for the Suns content. I think Bubble Booker should be proof enough that CP3 is not the sole difference this year, but I want to see the statistical case, too. Couple weeks ago on Lowe Post, before this current run, they noted that Booker and CP3 had great +/- independently but not together. Can that be correlated to who’s creating the wins, and have they figured out how to make each other better now?
