I don't know if you guys are aware of this site but [url]BasketballValue.com[/url] is a pretty neat site that assigns values to players and units based primarily on +/- and adjusting for "noisy" stats.
I found it especially interesting because it also has
Magic Unit Rankings that show how good we are with a given 5 man unit on the floor.
Some things I noticed, even though he is our best player, Dwight's
affect on our defense is greatly overstated, and once again Pat Garrity is our best defender.
Also, our best unit that we actually use is the Arroyo Bogans backcourt with Lewis, Turk, and Dwight.
Take a look around. It's not perfect. But it has a lot of information to browse.

This must be where B. Hill got his info when he stated Garrity was the teams best defender.

Laugh it up but it's true, PG is our best TEAM DEFENDER.
He'll get raped 1-on-1, but even in garbage time now you can see him fronting people, boxing out perfectly and not allowing any gaps to the hole.

EXACTLY! I'd happily give Foyle's minutes to Pat. Besides, virtually everyone in the league gets raped one-on-one.

Pat Garrity is the best defender in the NBA, no exceptions.
Also, Sam Cassell is not an alien, and T-Mac will get out of the first round.
