Flagg vs Knueppel Debate is HEATED



Flagg vs Knueppel Debate is HEATED

The Rookie of the Year race just got very interesting. Cooper Flagg has been dominating as an all-around force for the Mavericks, but Kon Knueppel is making a serious push with elite shooting and winning impact on the Hornets. From record-breaking performances to advanced stats like win shares, this debate is far from over.

  1. Kon, way better on the offensive end and doesn’t make positioning mistakes on defense. Cooper shots the ball an additional 25% per game so only having 1 more ppg essentially while having comparable rebounds and assists per game makes this a no brainer in my opinion. By better on offense, I’m referring to the fact that Flagg struggles to make shots beyond the free throw line and his efficiency is nothing in comparison to Kon

  2. Vj edgecombe putting up great numbers while also not being on one of the worst teams in the nba like these two

  3. Outside of record and threes made there’s really no debate, it’s Flagg. Flaggs on a worse team, in a worse situation for him, yet he’s still putting up better number then kon, he’s played better defense then kon, and he’s broken far more records then kon.

  4. The problem is one is the next play Thompson, not Steph because of the handles. And the other is a 2-way slashing point forward. There games are different. If we had kyrie and d live healthy,w be winning more games

  5. Winning has nothing to do with this award. That's for the MVP discussion. Give Flagg Ball, Miller, and Bridges and see what he does with them.

  6. Flagg has better numbers and the best defensive rating of all rookies. Team records have never mattered when it comes to ROTY voting. Hell, the spurs only won 22 games when Wemby won it. Kon is benefiting from having a better team and getting those open 3’s to make. I like Kon, but he’s really made his living making 3’s.
