I really don't think it has anything to do with the shot clock rule :lol. Teams are playing faster and shooting more threes. Like, the whole league

This. I really don't think that rule has that much of an impact on the high scores. Before this rule change, how often after an offensive rebound were teams using the whole 24? Not that often other than the last few minutes of a game if they had a lead.
 
I was looking ahead to tomorrow's slate of games, and on a night where you have the Mavs playing the Lakers, the Pelicans playing the Warriors, and the Jazz playing Minny, ESPN is airing Pacers vs Knicks and Spurs vs Suns.

Speaking of call outs didn’t you say this summer Jabari was a hidden star and his small sample size of good games was OBVIOUSLY better indicator of the future than his career before that?
I mean, he was a 20PPG scorer on 49/37 splits 2 seasons ago as a 21 year old. Offensively he's been fine this season. Defensively, he's sucked. For a team of a bunch of young guys with no expectations like the Bulls, it was low risk-high reward gamble. If he doesn't improve at all, they can just let him go next summer.
 
Still not a HOF

I tend to agree (I also think he’s a real long-shot for 6th man - don’t the Wolves will be good enough or he’ll put up big enough #s off the bench). Even with three individual NBA awards and a couple Olympic
medals, his lack of team success in the NBA will keep him out.
