It doesn't address position defense. Very good defenders (like Bowen) who don't get steals or blocks are under-represented by PER. I think putting...
That three year thing is bogus until/unless I see it from Hollinger. I've read numerous writings he's done on PER--including the 2003-04 Pro...
I think we're at OKC's level right now, but I agree we're a step (or two) behind Denver and Utah. Going forward, I still think we're in the best...
First of all: it's "PER", not "PERS". Secondly: no. PER is not ineffective with relatively small sample sizes. It's based on individual...
I've never claimed a single player is losing a game on a single possession. I AM claiming that Blake has done very little that benefits the...
I'm not convinced that win% means much of anything. PER seems to be consistent with what I see on the floor, while win% (perhaps because of the large...
I don't think you're right. The Sony decision, as far as I know, allows time-shifting of television broadcasts. "Private, noncommercial...
Ben Gordon would be a very very interesting addition. Yes, he's expensive salary-wise, but man... he can shoot. Having him as the starting "PG"...
Dude. He's TERRIBLE. His PER is 9.3. And he's playing 30 minutes a night... third-most on the team. He gets to the line fewer than one time a game....
We've needed a backup power forward since the end of last season. Instead of getting an NBA-ready player we used THREE roster spots on guys who...
You can't photocopy a whole book and give away copies just because you paid for the book. Ed O.
The offense was smooth as silk against the Knicks. Thank God Oden wasn't there. It's unbelievable, too, how the offense was so impressive in the...
28 ppg is an MVP candidate? Really? Ed O.
Well, if a player has an african american father and a white mother, is he considered "black" rather than "white" when he's classified as...
Blaming Webster for the team's recent woes makes no sense to me. He has not played well, with a few exceptions, but he hasn't been THAT bad. Playing...
There are two levels of inquiry here (or were, at the time): 1. Is he good enough to help the team when he plays, and 2. Would there be enough...
I'm glad that Nate keeps pushing his best player to play out of position rather than simply putting Blake on the bench. Dumbass. Ed O.
I don't think calling more fouls is "letting it go". Both calls looked correct to me--I don't think that it's legal to inhibit movement with your...
What about angels' gaping holes? Or is that what got Sodom and Ghomorra into trouble? Ed O.
Yes... in terms of the franchise, can fans be upset if we don't make the playoffs with four of our top 9 or 10 guys out? I don't think so. The...
