NBA draft of current players

i agree with andrew here. hulmie, stop saying dominant cas your not making sense.
dirk is an absolute jet and he has been pretty good in playoffs considering mavs turn to piss.
andrew knows his stuff, so if you want to take him on go for it lol.

Andrew3737 · March 18, 2011, 11:40:38 PM

You are sorting by winshares in that. When I said Mavs turn to shower, it means they get kicked out of the playoffs early, which means less games. Less games means less win shares. Sort by his individual performances. Look @ his PER, TS, eFG%, ORtg and WS/48 and you will see how much of a beast he has been in the playoffs.

Hulmie · March 18, 2011, 11:43:45 PM

You just seem to change your mind on what's more important. Sometimes it's WS sometimes it's PER.

Andrew3737 · March 18, 2011, 11:47:17 PM

You went with Win shares, so I showed you winshares/48, which is what you are ment to go for when one has played 6 games and the other has played 20.

Hulmie · March 19, 2011, 12:53:04 PM

Yep ok. Still though to judge a player by the 1 site it doesnt give you everything and the site doesn't take into account everything.

Andrew3737 · March 19, 2011, 01:02:38 PM

I do watch as well you know.

But again, Basketball is a stat game. You DO learn 99% of things from these figures.

Maca24 · March 19, 2011, 03:27:02 PM

so J's 24 hours is up again. next pick?

Hulmie · March 19, 2011, 04:27:52 PM

How about the things in basketball that there isn't stats on.

Such as Off Ball Defence, Help Defence, Pick and roll Defence, Tipped passes . Mid range jumpshots, On ball screens, Off Ball screens, Pass to assist.

Also for me it's not a completely fair Judgement on players such as Bruce Bowen who was one of the best Defenders in the league but his numbers don't show this.
Partly because he had to always defend against the best Offensive player so his job is always going to be harder on defence.

(I know your going to say something about the Mid Rnge jumpshot has a stat, but just personally i think Mid Range jumper should have it's own category because it's a completely different skill, it just shouldn't be bundled together with layups and dunks IMO)

If you want to keep the draft rolling.....

Andrew3737 · March 19, 2011, 04:55:41 PM

DRrg and DWS is ALL of defence.

Screens etc is all part of offense.

Also for your Bruce Bowen thing, wing defenders aren't as important as big man defenders. Which is why they get a lower rating.

sigh. we should really just get this moving.
J did say that he doesnt come on during weekends.

Justin Bieber · March 21, 2011, 04:12:00 PM

They were the same 2 guys I was tossing up with my picks (although Anthony was closer to being picked). Nice picks 8).

Maca24 · March 21, 2011, 06:21:10 PM
