IMHO Bev has not been healthy since he missed time with the leg injury earlier in the year. I ran the numbers on 12/6/14 and his defensive numbers...
Excellent points. In statistical analysis you have the data, you have the stats, and then you have the interpretation. SportVu provides the data....
It is not that Howard physically cannot defend beyond 10 feet. He psychologically cannot separate himself from the paint. If he could we would...
These are SportVU stats. They are gathered from video analysis of every single play in the NBA this season. From six digital cameras surrounding...
Excellent point sir. I had not noticed that aspect of the data. But that is one reason that I post these analyses. So that I can get other peoples...
My take away from this analysis is that Bev is obviously playing hurt, Smith was a much better pickup than Brewer, Howard has been hobbled since...
I decided to look at the SportVU defensive data for the top eight Rocket's players in minutes played. For your information SportVU data is the...

You have no clue how to analyze player performance in the NBA. You have watched how many OKC games this season? You do realize that your eye test,...
Ibaka is one of the premier power forward defenders in the NBA. He might even be the best. His paint protection is perhaps the best in the NBA....
[img] [img] Quite a few I would imagine.
I do wish that the Rockets could freeze this Corey Brewer in time and not have him revert to his career averages. That post was a snapshot in...
And thus the trade request. Reversion to the mean is a b****. And Brewer in all probability will revert to the mean. But honestly I hope not.
Simmons, at Grantland recently published the rules for evaluating NBA talent. In Simmons' words, there are some notable NBA trade rules......
