Yes, even better than his MVP season where he averaged 24.1 and 7.4 assists per 36. Per 36, Rose is averaging 25.4 points and 8.2 assists. Well lets take a shot at doing that by looking at his per-36 and per-100 possessions numbers. It makes you wonder what his traditional box-score stats would look like if he played as much as the other premier point guards in the NBA. Rose is having such an absurd season for the Pistons when you take into account he’s doing all this in only 26 minutes per game. You know which guards shoot as well as Rose in the restricted area with at least five attempts per game? Luka Doncic, Devin Booker, De’Aron Fox, Ben Simmons. On more attempts this season, Rose is shooting a career-high 68.7% on these attempts. This season, nine years removed from his MVP season, he’s getting to this area even more, with 30.4% of his attempts coming within 3 feet. In Rose’s 2010-11 season, 29.4% of his attempts came within 3 feet of the rim. While he may not have that level explosion at the rim anymore, he’s actually an even better finisher at the rim than he was in 2011. There’s not many players in the entire league who can do it like Rose can.įor everyone who witnessed Rose at his MVP peak, which was so long ago it’s crazy to think many never witnessed it, you know how insanely explosive he was. It’s shocking how a player who looked like he could be finished at the age of 29 can bounce back to THIS kind of level at age 31.ĭespite getting older, Rose is still one of the very best in the league at getting to the rim and finishing. Not only has Rose not fallen off from last year, he’s somehow gotten even better. Many lists coming into the season didn’t even have Rose as a top 100 player. Rose is enjoying career-highs in field goal percentage (49.7), efficiency field goal percentage (52.8), two-point field goal percentage (54.3), and true shooting percentage (56.4).Īll the while staying relatively healthy, playing in 39 of the Pistons 45 games thus far.Īfter having a bounce back season with the Minnesota Timberwolves, many of Rose’s doubters expected him to fall back to earth. In only 26.2 minutes per game on the season, Rose is putting up 18.5 points, 5.9 assists, and 2.5 rebounds per game on what could be his most efficient season of his NBA career. It’s not a stretch at all, and more so the reality, that one of the only reasons the Pistons are not a dumpster fire on offense is because of how insanely good Rose has been. The Pistons are currently ranked 16th in the NBA in offensive rating with a rating of 109.7. Somehow, though, this offense is far from the bottom. When looking at the Pistons roster minus those three players, this team should be a bottom of the league offense. Jackson and Griffin either haven’t played or have been awful in the times they attempted to play while battling injuries this season. Outside of role players such as Svi Mykhaliuk, Christian Wood, and Sekou Doumbouya who haven’t played nearly as many minutes, Rose has the highest net rating differential at 5.2.ĭetroit has suffered extended injuries to Blake Griffin, Reggie Jackson, and Luke Kennard this season. When he is off, they play like the fifth-worst. To put it another way, when Rose is on the floor Detroit plays like the eighth best offense in the NBA.
The 6.5 point differential is the highest on his team by more than 2.0 points. In the 1,150 minutes he’s off the court, the offensive rating is 104.8. In the 1.020 minutes Rose has played, the Pistons have an offensive rating of 111.3. With Rose on the court, Detroit is literally a completely different team. He is one of few bright spots on the Pistons roster this season. The team is 3-1, and Rose is averaging 23.0 points on 61.7 true shooting percentage, 7.0 assists, and 3.5 rebounds in 29.9 minutes per game. The Detroit Pistons are 5-5 over this stretch which may seem like nothing, but when you look at their overall record it’s obvious the difference Rose is making.Įven more telling is Rose’s impact since becoming a starter. In the past 10 games, Rose is averaging 23.6 points on an absolutely absurd 59.2 true shooting percentage, 6.2 assists, and 3.5 rebounds per game. The Chicago-born star has scored 20+ points in 10 consecutive games tying his most consecutive games at that mark since.
Quite literally, Rose is doing things he has not done in nearly a decade. And Rose hasn’t been this good since his MVP season in 2011. Instead of being inspired, NBA fans laughed and joked.įast forward two years, and Rose is playing like an All-Star again.
