thanks bwgood! betting purposes my friend. i gamble online a lot, especially when the nba season starts. you can bet on prop bets and one of which is who wins the tipoff of a game.

New here guys & gals so I don't know where or IF I can post this , But being a sports lover & autograph collector , I just wanted to throw this out there just in case anyone else is interested . Got an e-mail that today 2/17/205 Between 6am-9am ONLY!!! Steiner is doing a blowout of 4 autographed photo's for just $99.

NO , I DONT WORK FOR THEM,,,,,,,Like I said , I'm just a collector . I don't know what autographs they have , or what size ( 8x10 or 16x20) this will be for . But seeing that it's only a 3 hour window of availibility , They might have some really good deals , who knows.

Anyways , The link isn't up yet ( I just checked) but here it is,,,,,,,remember 6am - 9am ONLY!!

To the Moderators , sorry if I'm outta place posting this . If I stepped outta bounds I apologize . Just wanted to get the word out to other fans

Thanks

This is a really cool site....they have all the prospects listed and their averages this year and then if you click on the player, you get all sorts of info...shot charts, game by game stats...tons of stuff.

http://ncaa-basketball-players.pointafter.com/

Myles Turner's shot chart shows a lot of versatility and range on offense..he can hit from all over the place.

http://ncaa-basketball-players.pointafter.com/l/1568/Myles-Turner

Same with Portis

http://ncaa-basketball-players.pointafter.com/l/5119/Bobby-Portis

Trey Lyles with decent range...not as good as the above two...but it looks like 12-15 feet he is solid. (I know we knew this but it's interesting to look at).

http://ncaa-basketball-players.pointafter.com/l/4991/Trey-Lyles

No shot chart for Looney but he looks like by far the best rebounder and 3 point shooter.

I just added a couple of new sites at the top of the OP, that a knowledgeable Raps fan had mentioned as using in his research.

Here is a current listing of each Suns' player's PER...obviously small sample sizes for some for now inflate or deflate scores. Might be interesting to check up on for a quick capture of a player's raw stats. I know PER isn't the best measure of the difference a player makes, but it is a somewhat quick tally of the statistical categories. http://espn.go.com/nba/teams/hollinger/_/team/PHX

Efficiency differentials. http://basketball.realgm.com/nba/team_stats/2016/Advanced_Stats/Team_Totals/Regular_Season/ediff/desc

BPI Projected records and playoff odds.

http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/page/BPI-Playoff-Odds/espn-nba-basketball-power-index-playoff-odds

Great historical fantasy stats/rankings etc here

Marion...dude was a fantasy BEAST!

If anyone has a good site for shot charts, please add link to this thread.

i just lost a chunk of my workday diving into vorped.com (i ended up here: http://vorped.com/1-nba/2015-2016/game/12895/suns-at-bulls-december-7-2015/)

somebody posted it in the booker thread, kerrsed i think

shot charts are nice there but there's a lot about how that site presents information that i like. it's nice ot be able to quickly scan 5-man lineups which are getting a bunch of time together and see how they perform game to game.

ETA - http://vorped.com/1-nba/2015-2016/unit/91888/Bledsoe-Knight-Leuer-Tucker-Len/ our most frequent five man lineup is good defensively everywhere except one spot... annnnd btw only one player in that lineup has a - AST/TO ratio..

::hears Bucks fans' complaints echoing in his head::

Picks owed....so you can determine what picks may be available out there...

http://basketball.realgm.com/nba/draft/future_drafts/detailed

I don't recall seeing this simple rating before....I hadn't looked at this site in a while..looks like they still have some really good stats there.

Not that this simple rating is a really good one, since it tries to be a catch all, but only four of our players had a positive simple rating this year.

Might be tough to guess which for.

http://www.82games.com/1516/ROLRTG8.HTM

Though I guess now that I look up at post #9 in this thread, it's the same 4 guys that have a PER above the league average if you look at that link.

This is a good site to look up stuff on college guys... http://ncaa-basketball-players.pointafter.com/

This is a complementary site for NCAA players (and teams). It´s not as rich as Point After, but brings some additional info on play-by-play performance:

For example, here we can see that the assumption that Brown is great at getting at the rim, but terrible finishing at the rim, is false:
http://hoop-math.com/California2016.php

It´s his 2P Jumper that brings his 2PTFG% down so much.
