    Really Interesting read, i would love someone to dig up the Rockets EPV and see all the dimensions of our players. Obviously this is a novel statistic and needs to be discussed but seems cool.

    Would love to see Hardens Shot Satisfaction (Melo is apparently only in the top 22% for selfishness, what does that say about Hardens perceived ballhogging)
    or Dwights EPV after pass (which should be quite high if this team is built Inside Out like i think Morey would prefer)

    Really beginning to jump on board with these advanced statistics

    There hasn't been a full season sample size yet as far as I know. I don't think any results other than the ones shown in the tables can be found yet, either.

    For example, they talk about Chris Paul being ranked the best in the league on this metric, but also make note of the fact that they only had 11 games of data on him, during which he shot like 6% better than his season FG% average, which skews the data.
