<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The National Basketball Association has an answer to the National Football League's suddenly important passer rating for quarterbacks. In the NBA, it's called the efficiency rating. And if you trust the ratings system, the Denver Nuggets' Andre Miller is not only one of the league's top-30 rated players but one of its top five point guards. There is no easy way to describe the formula used to determine the efficiency rating, but here goes: First, add points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocked shots. Then subtract overall missed field-goal attempts plus overall missed free-throw tries plus turnovers. Divide the total by the number of games played. Got that? Based on the formula, Miller went into Denver's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday with a 18.46 efficiency rating. The Timberwolves' Kevin Garnett had compiled the league's highest rating (32.64), followed by Elton Brand of the Los Angeles Clippers (27.57).</div>
He deserves his top ten spot. He's really bringing a young team to life, dropping close to a double double in points in assists every night. He's doesn't make many turnovers, either. I like him.
