euphronius posted:People are addicted to plus minus Don't know if it is still true, but Anthony Davis had the worst +/- on the Pelicans for at least the first month of the season. And there is no way he is the worst player on the team, so, yeah. Using +/- for single players like that is really, really, really dumb. e: just checked and AD has moved up, but is still negative on the season. Only Jrue and Cunningham have positive +/-.

I edited in more of a rant because I COULDN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT THE BAD STAT  I mean, to an extent raw +/- does say something about the team's performance while that player is on the court, but it really can't be read in any way as explanation as to why that is happening. It should never ever be the center of an argument.

The Basketball HOF is even more secretive. IIRC, the general public doesn't even know who votes for the players.

I'm a huge fan of all the graded non graded calibrated and isolated special plus minus stats, bapm, rpm, and most importantly pt-pm. Especially once you compare the stat to clips and see their brekadowns. Pure aggregate plus minus is useless and basically a game by game na rrative stripped of detail or context. With the other advanced pm stats you can really confirm an eye test or sometimes blow it up, then you get to watch clips and see what's going on and why you thought otherwise. It's helpful, it's a very helpful category of metrics edit sorry for all the typos, I'm half blind, I'm getting eye surgery soon and you can trust that my posts will be of a higher quality Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 23:36 on Jan 14, 2017 |

And there is no way he is the worst player on the team, so, yeah. Using +/- for single players like that is really, really, really dumb. Jrue and Cunningham haven't played enough minutes to qualify for stat leaderboards. Comparing them to AD is misleading. Buddy Hield is the low guy on NOP at -133. EvanTH posted:I mean, to an extent raw +/- does say something about the team's performance while that player is on the court, but it really can't be read in any way as explanation as to why that is happening. It should never ever be the center of an argument. Two issues with +/- are that comparisons continue to be made between players who play 2,000+ minutes and players who play a few hundred minutes. This is not a good practice. Another issue is overanalyzing +/- in a single game and discounting it because the rankings don't align perfectly with player value/reputation rather than looking at cumulative trends over 20+ games. No other box score stat gets that level of criticism. Nobody besmirches the basic stats when LBJ doesn't lead the Cavaliers in every category etc. i.e.  LBJ didn't lead in points this game? Throw that stat out!Curry leads in +/- this year: code:Bashez posted:The West is so far ahead of the east it's not even funny. By SRS the number 1 west team is better than the number 1 east team 2 better than 2 and so on. Every single west team has a higher SRS at each position, except 9th. The Wolves have hosed it up by being extremely "unlucky" in their point distributions. No, just two years ago in 2014-15 it was even worse. That's why LBJs had a complete cakewalk to the finals some years. There's no way he'd be on this crazy finals streak if he was playing in the West all these years.

I prefer looking at +/- by lineup rather than player. Although WTF is up with that Drummond stat. Does their starting lineup get its asskicked?

Late on the Jimmer chat but holy at him averaging 38/9/5 per game in China. I love weird statistical outliers like that: like the dude for...I want to say UT-Chattanooga in the NCAA...who's literally shooting 83% from the field on more than seven shots a game.

Rpm agrees with these, but as Rick said, defense is a team result, so just OK small guys can have big numberd I'm good teams. And good Defenders can have bad or average numbers on bad teams. Offense for stawhat'sstsrtervlevel lever players isn't as dependent although that varies depending on their game. It's never really for ranking just for singing players contributions in in the most neutral worlds we can sort of hash out. It's also a good way to find diamonds in the rough on mediocre treams , so I can avoid boring there vs non three teams matchups and watch intriguing young fellers instead Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 00:54 on Jan 15, 2017 |

My parents took me and my sister to see some movie while they went to see the mummy. Our movie ended about halfway through theirs so we wandered in right during the train scene. I got so scared I and my sister left and walked out and sat on the bench outside the theater for another hour.
