Thanks for all the replies! For some reason I thought you guys were already 2-3 years into your "rebuilding" phase, but I guess it is a little...
As a lifelong A's fan, just thought I'd welcome you guys (belatedly) to the AL West. It's been a pretty competitive division, and over the past...
Agreed. The only good reason to get rid of an outlier is if you think there is a methodological flaw in obtaining that data. Otherwise, it's a...
durvasa hits it on the head. He uses FG% and TS% as scapegoats to argue in favor of his brand new metric, but ignores the one metric which already...
I have been watching basketball for 50 years and my penis is huge and I have an IQ of OVER 9,000! You know how I know who actually knows what...
Synergy is nice, but you really do have to have a pretty firm grasp of statistics in order to properly understand the numbers it is throwing you....
It doesn't matter who starts, it just matters who gets the minutes. People need to stop caring so much about labels and pay more attention to what...

I think McHale is overall a great coach, when you consider that one of a coach's primary job is to maintain locker room culture. And, as others...
At least this thread serves is as a useful record of preexisting biases. They haven't even played a single game of the season and people are...
I know Brooks has had some crazy games, but the guy is not the same player. Let's be honest, he was never that player to begin with. It's one...
Pelton isn't arguing from statistics, and he's talking about a completely different context. He's arguing that the Rocket's front office thinks...
So basically the argument against the fact that Canaan hasn't actually proven he can play in the NBA is to say that he has the potential to play...
Canaan has played exactly zero games in the NBA, and he was a second-round pick. Like Beverley, he is short for the league, and there is...
Great read! Always nice to know the real numbers.
If you look at recent history, the only two players who can reasonably claim to have actually carried teams on their backs by themselves are...
