I thought this was a nice read, providing insights about various NBA superstars' careers based on adjusted +/-. http://georgetownsportsanalysis.wor...nalytics-through-the-past-decades-superstars/ I'll quote the part on Dwight Howard: [rquoter] On the other hand, as should be pretty obvious to anyone who watches the NBA, Dwight Howard has been a terrific defender his entire career and is far and away the main reason why Orlando was a contender in the East for several years. Howard helps his team mainly from being able to turn a bad defense into a good one while also being the best offensive center in the league since Shaquille O’Neal. In fact, his injury, combined with getting familiar with a new team, coach, and role last year with the Lakers, resulted in a league average at best contribution on offense, which Laker fans would agree with despite Dwight’s 17 points per game on a 57.3% True Shooting Percentage.

is stats-for-the-nba the best place for RAPM or are there other sites? it seemed like there was a site that would graphically show several years of data, broken down into offensive and defensive contribution, but i can't remember what it was. or did it go away because the guy got hired by an nba team? (if the answer is in the link, i'm at work and can't open it right now)
