Yeah, I don't like being treated like I'm stupid by someone who won't be intellectually honest.

I didn't know you existed until a few minutes ago. If you want to debate about Berri or anything else, have at it!!

He was "having at it" 3 weeks ago while you were ignoring the thread. Go and read the first two and a half pages. I'm interested in hearing why you think it's a meaningful stat.

Why I think wins produced is meaningful?

When comparing players across teams I want one comprehensive stats that includes both offense and defense. I want it to be correlated to team wins. You can try to individually compare every possible stat under the sun but we can NOT simultaneously comprehend 20 to 30 stats for hundreds of players. Out minds don't work that way. Reducing it all to one stat is useful, since we can create hierarchies of players overall and players by position.

I'd love to see a ranking of players based on this wins produced stat that Wolves2011 is using. Does one exist?

I had this same debate on the Celtics board.... read that... link is here, then get back to me....

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=948689

Then read the other Rondo strings for the last 2 weeks because the debate spilled over into many other links....

in particular read:

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=952100

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=950798

viewtopic.php?f=8&t=951852

These are a good place to start, there are more... thats why I was busy....

As part of the Rondo debate, we extensively discussed the value of of some these stats..... and what they show...

No interest in reading all those. That's Rondo/Boston garbage. Which one has the ranking of players across the NBA?
