A statistical look at our PG position and all possibilities.

[VIPER8382]

I wish I could make this easier to read, but I can't find a way.

This is a look at our current PG's and some potential upgrades. The stats of note are each player's own PER, the PER they allow their counterparts to put up, the net difference, and for triangle purpose their 3 point percentage. Both sections (our current and potential replacements) are in order from best net PER to lowest net PER.


PG / OWN PER/ OPP PER/ NET PER/ 3%/ NOTES

Jordan Farmar/ 15.2/ 15.5/ -0.3/ 37.1% /
Shannon Brown/ 14.1/ 19.2/ -5.1 /32.2% /
Derek Fisher/ 10.1/ 19.2/ -9.1/ 35.3%/

Nate Robinson/ 19.6/ 13.8/ 5.8/ 37.5%/
Luke Ridnour/ 20.5/ 15.1/ 5.4/ 40.3%/
Leandro Barbosa/ 19.3/ 15.3/ 4.0/ 33.0%/ Career 40% on 3's
Kirk Hinrich / 12.9/ 9.3/ 3.6/ 35.9%/
Randy Foye /18.4 15.9/ 2.5/ 34.8%/

i don't put much stock in opp. PEr, but kirk is so far ahead of everyone else its hard to ignore.

Derek Fisher is absolutely abysmal this year, we must acquire a PG and get Fisher on the bench as a reserve clutch shooter type with very limited minutes.

Considering contract situation, availability, and fit I would rank these guys this way:

1. Robinson
2. Ridnour
3. Collison
4. Barbosa
5. Foye
6. Augustin
7. Conley (the stats don't back him up, but I feel he would be great in LA)
8. Chalmers
9. Dooling
10. Barea
11. Blake
12. Hinrich (great defense, horrible contract)
13. Marcus Banks (if we can get him for Vujacic)

I don't really want any of the other guys on this list.

Hinrich would move up my list a ton if Vujacic were moved out in the deal. For Farmar and Morrison though I just feel the price is way too high.

Of the stats, Duhon is the most disappointing/unexpected. Poor opps per for a guy supposedly defensive minded and poor 3p shooting.
