    Isaiah Thomas still has a HEALTHY cushion for dead last in DRPM @ 89th, a full point below the next closest @ -4.31.

    Also noteworthy... Nene's 3.05 in DRPM ranks above Howard & DeAndre this season

    Anyone else find it weird that ESPN Stats still isn't putting Harden in lists for Point Guards, when you filter by position. You have to click Shooting Guards to see him.

    It seems to favor their natural or defensive assignment. It'd be weird if 260lb Lebron were in the same list with 160lb guys.

    No, the filter works the same for all stats. If you look up scoring leaders by position, you have to click SG to see James Harden. He doesn't show up in the list of scoring or assists for PG.

    Harden is still a SG in their database, apparently.

    RPM isn't a perfect stat.(like all stats) Last year it had Capela as a top 25 defender and this year he is one of the worst. Granted he is playing starters now but this metric is suppose to account for that.

    What? My point was LBJ plays the point for the Cavs most of the time too (how many years in a row has he led his team in assists?), but his natural & defensive position is still SF.

    He also broke his leg & was out for a month earlier this season, and the uptempo style of play likely plays a factor too. Meanwhile, Nene's DRPM is virtually identical from last year's to this year's despite for a new team in a new system. Veteran advantage?

    Word. Also... the top 3 SG's in DRPM are all Spurs, and Manu is #6. Damn them.
