Not sure if you are serious... If the purpose is to tank, there are lots of young undraftees who are just as bad as Royce but at least they don't...
Royce's future will be determined in 9 days. I'm 99% sure 76ers will not exercise their third year option on him. Since Houston already paid...
Let me guess....The classes in session are Geography and Political Science 101?? Hope Casspi didn't eat any Kishke at Mekel's house.
I bet many of you didn't watch the game. PPat had a hot shooting night. On the offensive end, he did well. On the defensive end, he was terrible,...
If anything, you just brought up a perfect example as to why RAPM is great 'tool,' as you call it, to measure contribution of wins by a player....
Playing small ball is a double edged sword. How will team defend against Asik and Dwight in the paint? One of them can surely 'muscle' their way...
Jesus TRob, you just made it to NBA highlight. http://www.nba.com/video/games/blazers/2013/10/21/0011300083-sac-por-play5.nba
TRob looked awesome today. He totally faked out PPat and put him in a popcorn machine in one play and shot a 15 footer baseline contested...
Lots of homers in this thread, which I understand perfectly for reasons that Hayward is a Jazz and Parsons is purtier. Hayward IS their #1...
I wouldn't put too much into that game. Heat looked like dog poop previous two games against Wizards and Nets. I think it has a lot to do with...
Repp'ed! You are no longer in the gray reputation status. Enjoyed every minute of it.
I don't see any preseason game thread posted. Lock or merge it if there is one. Interesting game between Nuggets and Clippers. Going into OT....
The value of Asik only matters to Rockets. IF he plays less than 20 minutes, as I stated earlier, his value is less than a 36 minute Millsap or...
Dirk's salary is $22.75M. It will take at least Lin + Asik to make it work.
Author's Update: This post (link) from Brett Koremenos over at Grantland makes the point that the Rockets could potentially play Asik alongside...
You do not factor in the whatever + wins when the most of the players played for the same coach last season. Players with 'All Star' title...
What an ingenious idea! Get us a legit PF who is on a rookie contract and still retain Asik. Casspi and Garcia will do just fine.
It's a beauty contest.
My calculation based on xRAPM. All minutes played(MP) are based on a season total. <PRE> Players MP Wins Harden 33.6 15.85 O Asik 30.0 12.13 J....
15 minute of Asik produced more wins than Parsons or Lin did in 36 minutes last season. Statistical projection by using xWARP. The success of...
