With that in mind an uptick isnt exactly cause for elation or even a credible argument when confronted with the fact that scoring in the league is substantially lower than what people are used to-- especially the people who can remember the NBA of the 80s and 90s.
    Okay so you can't answer my question...

        I thought it was a rhetorical question pushing a meaningless assertion.

            How much higher?

            Everything works in scales, means, highs and lows.

            Scoring could be up THIS year, but down from 2002. Understand what I mean?

            So, you have to show me the stats so I can at least understand your question.
            "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace
