I won't even debate Lawson. Terrible. I'm pissed both Jones and he are still here. Horrible trade deadline. Not really. He waived his 2nd year option so we can just let him walk imstead of having to give up a 1 to get someone to take him. That's our whole team and front office. Complete **** show
Still pretty amazing that the Rockets paid Lawson more for 1 season than they did for Lin's combined 2 seasons with the team. Plus they are paying more for Beverly per season than they paid for Lin. So much money tied up at the PG spot for much less production than what Lin brought to the team when he was here. Amazing how much hate Lin gets here...
Your post just shows what an ignorant racist you are Real plus minus for Lin http://espn.go.com/nba/statistics/rpm/_/sort/RPM/position/1 Definition of real plus minus for snoopy dope. Educate yourself LOF. I await your admission of guilt for the completely embarrassing display of ignorance you've put on. http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/10740818/introducing-real-plus-minus What is real plus minus As the name suggests, real plus-minus shares a family resemblance with the +/- stat in the box score, which merely registers the net change in score (plus or minus) while each player is on the court. RPM is inspired by the same underlying +/- logic: If a team outscores its opponents when a player is on the court, he's probably doing something to help his team, whether or not he's putting up big numbers. But the familiar +/- stat has a serious flaw: Each player's rating is heavily influenced by the play of his on-court teammates. For example, in the basic +/- numbers, Thunder backup point guard Reggie Jackson is ranked 27th in the league. But he's also spent the majority of his minutes playing alongside Kevin Durant, the league's likely MVP. What we really want to know is how much of Jackson's elite rating is attributable to his own play, and basic +/- simply can't tell us. But real plus-minus can. Where does real plus-minus come from? Drawing on advanced statistical modeling techniques (and the analytical wizardry of RPM developer Jeremias Engelmann, formerly of the Phoenix Suns), the metric isolates the unique plus-minus impact of each NBA player by adjusting for the effects of each teammate and opposing player. The RPM model sifts through more than 230,000 possessions each NBA season to tease apart the "real" plus-minus effects attributable to each player, employing techniques similar to those used by scientific researchers when they need to model the effects of numerous variables at the same time. RPM estimates how many points each player adds or subtracts, on average, to his team's net scoring margin for each 100 possessions played. The RPM model also yields separate ratings for the player's impact on both ends of the court: offensive RPM (ORPM) and defensive RPM (DRPM).
1. "RPM estimates how many points each player adds or subtracts" LOL "estimates"... In other words, a load of BS. Not real STATISTICS. About as statistical as next week's weather forecast. I can't believe you're using "statistical estimates" as REAL STATISTICS. Do you even math, bro? 2. Using your own bogus BS metric, 33rd out of 85, doesn't seem too bad for a back up. 33rd out of 85 is right in the middle of the pack. Average to slightly above average for a PG in the NBA. Not sure what you're attempting to accomplish here, but you're failing on all levels LOLLL 3. Word of advice, you should learn to be more concise. tl dr posts using fake statistics is just a waste of time. 4. Real statistics, based on historical data, not based on estimations or forecasts, are available as such here: http://www.basketball-reference.com...l=&c4stat=&c4comp=ge&c4val=&order_by=diff_pts Funny how you have to use bogus metrics to try to prove your pathetic point. Lawlz
Just to clarify, the real racist is the guy who shamelessly supports affirmative action based on skin color, not based on income. Does that even make sense, bro? Do you even logic? lol
