Basketball statisticians use a figure of 250 minutes played or more as the basis for calling analysis valid for a player. If we take that concept...
Hmm, interesting observations. Hindsight is 20/20 but regardless I'm less inclined to believe there were any real positives with letting Mike...
I think that's a pretty plausible explanation for the lack of increase in offensive efficiency. I'm not sure I understand the defensive increase...
durvasa - one of the reasons I was expecting to see an increase in offensive efficiency for the Rockets was based on the +/- numbers you quoted...

JeopardE - the only problem with that is 17/29 teams have above average defenses while 11/29 teams have above avg offenses meaning the population...
