Kind of way late, but this is awesome. I'm looking forward to seeing how Durant/Westbrook/Harden/Curry/Davis will line up with this analysis in the coming years.

Seeing how no one had done the research until he did, I'm not sure how it "can't be right" if it was previously unknown.


It "can't be right" because Elgee is also listing MJ as having the BEST Game Score in the PS against sub-103 defenses. He can't simultaneously be the best and the worst.
If you look at the chart, MJ does indeed have the best GmSc (at 19.5). The worst GmSc (13.9) in the ps against sub-103 defenses belongs to Miller......it appears it's a typo in Elgee's post.

I was confused for a moment, as I remembered this thread, but as it was a while ago, I wasn't sure why there would be a reply directed to me now or even what I said.

But there's a considerable difference between "That can't be right!" and pointing out, "Oh, there's a mistake there, looks like there was a typo."
I remember your posts from the RPOY project, you consistently brought it. Please continue to do so, sir. This board needs guys like you to counteract ... worthless posters
