Sure it is - it gives you a vague idea of whether a player is "good", but absolutely no detail on WHY they're good or what it is that they're good at.
Agreed. I just think that other stats are more useful than PER to add more details and layers of understanding of a particular player. PER is kinda...
I'm not attempting to make that correlation - those are three separate statements, responding to PapaG.
Yeah, at the time it was happening it seemed like the refs didn't know what to do and they just wanted GS to have 5 players on the floor and were...
Regarding good/bad things, I realized I was thinking of yet another composite stat - EFF. And rather than type out all of the individual stats that...
I'd like to try to acquire Lamb from OKC. Of the wing players he was the one I was most interested in - only one that (based on draft reports &...
I'm just talking about possibilities in general - this team could have gone is so many different directions, but it was all dependent upon who we...
Yeah, as someone who doesn't follow NCAA I was very interested in Drummond.
Yup. It's been so long since I paid any attention to it, because I found it to be garbage - so I no longer know precisely what it is. That's often...
I'd be quite interested to have seen that come to pass. Wonder who our PG would be right now... So many possibilities this past summer - Dame...
That's how I feel about it.
Sabas was the all time greatest person to ever play basketball!
I certainly think it has more value than PER. At least I think so, if I'm remembering what +/- is. It's the one where you add up "good" things and...
Agreed.
Doesn't matter - large sample size or not, it's a nearly worthless stat IMO. It and PER are both stupid - especially when used in isolation, as they...
Yeah, I remember the injured player checking in so that he could foul and go back to the bench. The coach was so pissed at having to make one of his...
Ha! Was it against GS when the opposition only had 4 players who were eligible to play by the end of the game due to injuries and players fouling...
And anyone who plays with Price is going to see their +/- plunge.
Even when GSW were bad they had our number. I wouldn't be surprised if they swept the series with us this season.
+/- is garbage. It doesn't tell you what an individual is doing. You often see players have the lowest +/- in a given game even though they had the...
