Monta wins in another category. He's slightly cheaper ;-)
I agree with you, although I think an argument can be made (not by me) on how Martin contributes to more wins based on the WS stat. I mean, look at...
I should also acknowledge that of course there will be exceptions to the rule, or in this case, what stats show. But as AO says, in general, they...
By no means was I saying WS is the holy grail. I only brought that up to show how efficiency, which Martin is, can contribute to wins. I didn't...
What are you disagreeing with? I'm just stating the facts that are out there and you're ignoring the facts. Martin, historically, has contributed...
Yeah, but the problem with EFF is it completely ignores scoring efficiency, which is part of being efficient. I'm not sure you can really say Monta...
Yes, Monta gets more assists, but he also gets more turnovers. I think we can all agree that his playmaking abilities aren't really that of a true...
Whoops, that's what I get for not checking the box score. Did not realize the TO's were not that abundant. Perhaps it was how they turned it over.
Yes, I admit that was a little too much and apologize again. Monta definitely has value, perceived or not. He's not breaking the bank at 11M/year....
Good point. Warriors may have a chance to sign him leaving Monta available to trade for someone with similar value (all things considered).
Geez, Phil, I apologize if that was construed as a personal attack to you. I was insinuating that your value of Monta to Battier was grossly...
The Hawks did a tremendous job on defense. Denied everything to the basket. They have the players to make that happen. Terrible performances by...
Yeah, Wallace isn't exactly a guy you'd lean on for major production, but he's a difference maker on defense and a player's defense doesn't usually...
Biedrins is definitely a role player. We need to realize this. He's never going to be your go-to guy or a guy that's going to give you heavy...
That's just stupid. Battier is a good player, but if you step out of your clam shell, you'll realize Monta has more value than that, despite how you...
I already explained it. EFF doesn't value shooting efficiency (TS% & eFG%, both which measure the difficulty of FGA, 3PA, and FTA). When you're...
Way too premature to be saying Udoh would be a better fit than Biedrins. Everyone is forgetting how valuable Biedrins is and THAT is a shame. "It's...
I agree with you. But just to play devil's advocate and emotions aside (from losing), we need to see how this team, healthy, can gel and put some...
NBA's EFF is basically as "useless" as PER. It still doesn't value shooting efficiency. http://www.wagesofwins.com/WOWCh7.htm
Kevin Martin has a career TS% and eFG% better than Monta's. He's more efficient. His efficiency is so high because he gets to the line A LOT. If...
