This. 💔

@TheDunkCentral It’s actually funny because the gap between Kon and Flagg has become bigger and bigger since the calendar turned March.

NBA.com’s final rookie ladder: 1. Kon Knueppel  2. Cooper Flagg 3. VJ Edgecombe

In the NBA's final Rookie Ladder update of the season, Kon Knueppel holds onto #1. 👏 1. Kon Knueppel, Hornets 2. Cooper Flagg, Mavericks 3. VJ Edgecombe, 76ers

I'm really disappointed in the lack of credit & attention LaMelo's getting. Too many ppl giving Kon the credit that should go to LaMelo. None of this works w/o him & to a minor extent- Brandon Miller.

@Matze0106 @ChrissyK1103 @dostmann1963 @ElaGehring Ihr seid so unfassbar verloren. Wann seid ihr falsch abgebogen? Beim Schulsport als letztes gewählt oder was war los?

@ChrissyK1103 @dostmann1963 @ElaGehring Etablierung eigener Richter, Unterwanderung von Polizei und Strafverfolgung. Abschaffung von Demokratieförderung , Verhinderung unabhängiger Berichterstattung etc.

Er spricht dem Volk aus der Seele nur leider wählt das dann AfD.

@Matze0106 @AngelikaDi84983 @neene_Nala Das weiß Angelika bestimmt.

@AngelikaDi84983 @neene_Nala Wir importieren ca 15Twh Atomstrom pro Jahr, was in etwa 3% entspricht.Das ganze mit fallender Tendenz. Je mehr Speicher un EE gebaut werden, desto weniger müssen wir importieren. Der Wert kann nur ermittelt werden, da genaue Zahlen nicht existieren.

@Matze0106 Banaszak gibt mir in dunklen Zeiten ein wenig Hoffnung.

@HornetsReddit Lets look at the last 18 games: 16.9 PPG, .450 FG% and under .400 3P% Every game matters. Your boy Kon is hitting the rookie wall right now.

🎙️ Reggie Miller on ROTY: "I'm still going with Kon (Knueppel)." "What Cooper Flagg has done over the last week or so, that's great and all... but Kon and his team, every game means something." 💯 x.com/dpshow/status/…

@mindsetmachine Another strange trend formed by over-protected multi-millionaires.

If you don't respect the silver medal, you don't deserve the gold medal 🏅💯

@schaefer_j Wie wir alle wissen werden Gefängnisstrafen privat gezahlt. Ganz klar.

Ah, SPD-Justizministerin #Hubig plant jetzt das Null-Euro-Ticket für ganz Deutschland. Großartig! Und zahlen muss dafür? Genau… Politik aus dem Phantasialand… #Schwarzfahren

@DraftDeeper @KirkSeriousFace @NoCeilingsNBA Then you should vote for him (In case you have a vote). Every argument I see for Kon is basically about shooting efficiency and team success. There’s nothing else.

@mpatock38 @KirkSeriousFace @NoCeilingsNBA I'd be perfectly fine with Cooper Flagg being the ROTY. But I really appreciate the feedback.

@Out_of_Hornets That’s a funny ass comparison. Because both all stars (Murray, KD) averaging more than 25.5 PPG. Whereas Kon is shooting around .450 in March and April with under 17 PPG.

See he gets compared to all stars/superstars/all time great rookies vs flagg gets compared to teenagers.

love these guys but are we shocked the ‘Nerd Sesh’ Pod is mounting an impassioned defense of Kon? lol I’m gonna lay it out 1 last time & I’m done after forgive me (I post long ass stuff anyway so idc). This is rebuttal to your pod & many of the Pro-Kon arguments I’m seeing. Kon v Flagg, at this point, is a straight up classical ball & eye test vs the modern nba love of advanced metrics one’s role is classic center piece of an offense, primary option & playmaker. He leads his team in every statistical category (pts, reb, ast, blks & stls - which is absurd btw), he avg more pts, reb, ast, stls & blks than the other. Is 3rd in NBA in 40pt games this yr, notched a 50pt game as youngest ever… a strong 2 way player w outstanding defensive attributes. Eye test & gross stats depict one of the greatest prospects ever & all time rookie seasons. the other has a clearly defined supporting role on top rated offense next to Lamelo & BM. He broke the rookie record for made 3s, leads the nba in made 3’s & is shooting at absurd efficiency. all while helping the franchise jump into an 8 seed play-in spot w chance at 6. when you lay out the numbers & arguments of both players, the advanced metrics will mostly lean Kon - but when you boil allll those metrics down, its 20 different equations to tell the same story: - better shooting & efficiency - better offensive/net ratings the latter, no matter how you want to spin it, are more indicative of *team success* vs individual. if you think on/off or off rating tell more of an individual story vs a story of who’s on the floor around you, we’ve lost the plot. these metrics are an important variable in MVP debates bc we’re splitting hairs on the best players on the best teams. we need context to help paint the impact & quantify value. but they are (or rather *should* be) irrelevant in a ROTY race comparing guys on LOTTERY & PLAY IN teams. truly lay out what Kon has outpaced or outperformed Coop in this year, it still boils down to 2 things: shooting efficiency & made 3’s. boiled even *further* down? = shooting. NOT scoring, just, shooting. eye test, raw numbers, best performances all tell us Coop. every element of the game: passing, scoring, defense, transition - all tell us Coop - minus shooting. MVP debates have also poisoned the well here. We are so engrained when comparing players to measure winning, on/off & net ratings to value a player - this is NOT an MVP debate. We at NO point considered Chet Holmgren’s role on a top seeded Thunder - even though he “impacted winning” & “contributed right away” to #1 seed - as a valid argument for a better rookie season for ROTY. Victor won (unanimously) w 22 wins & the 14 seed. Why? Raw numbers & eye tests all told us this is the better player, having the better *individual* season. OKC’s success was not a factor, contributing right way was not a factor. Chet was +422(!) his rookie yr Wemby was -142 This is not an MVP debate. off rating, BPM, efficiency, standings - all tertiary. stop the overthinking, let the eyes & raw numbers tell the story. it’s Cooper Flagg’s award.

@SeanDNeves @All_Things_Mavs @SleeperJazz That one hurt 🙄

@mpatock38 @All_Things_Mavs @SleeperJazz You should relocated to not your mom's basement

Mavericks winning the lottery would easily be one of the worst outcomes for the league in the history of the NBA. I would literally rather the Celtics win the lottery.

@KirkEvans0 @ktownmac35 @BryceLottos Well this is objectively wrong. Just wrong. Kon is an effing shooter, Flagg is a star already.

@ktownmac35 @BryceLottos The arguement is kon has been a better basketball player this season than Flagg.

Hmmmmmm who’s having a better season. Very hard to tell. I’m not sure

@KirkEvans0 I don’t even know what that shit means but pretty sure it means Kon‘s on a better team

@SamQuinnCBS Still Kon over Flagg? Come on now. That gimmick is over.

Where I'm leaning: MVP: SGA DPOY: Victor MIP: Queta COY: Mazzulla 6MOY: Jaquez Clutch: SGA ROY: Knueppel

@MichaelVPina @N_Chickles I have watched a lot of Hornets basketball and all I can see is Ball, Miller, Bridges and one of the best shooters of the league.

@N_Chickles nicky, watch the hornets. nobody is saying flagg sucks. your point about no gm taking kon over coop is probably true and i'd agree. it is also irrelevant. and isn't it wild that kon's per game numbers are almost equal despite him playing fewer minutes and having better teammates?

cooper flagg rules, but the season is 82 games long and he hasn't been the best rookie this year. shout out to him, though. incredible player

@All_Things_Mavs @SleeperJazz The Jazz should relocate to a city that at least some players would want to live in.

@SleeperJazz It would be way worse for the league if Utah won it after shutting down their players all season, sitting players for 4th quarters after leading entire games, and playing a bunch of nobodies every night.

@WolstatSun You should look into finding a new hobby or a new job. Because I don’t know if you’re a professional reporter but you clearly shouldn’t.

I still think overall, Knueppel has had the way better season. Flagg will likely be a better player long-term, but I’d have a hard time voting him for ROY over Knueppel’s historic year which includes reviving the hapless Hornets.
