'19-20 Player Stats

[threrf23]

These are some stats I churn out over a couple of days after every NBA season. This season, at least the regular season, seems to be over, so I figured why not.

More background and context in last year's thread, the 2018 thread, and the 2017 thread. These stats are basically centered around contextual adjustments, composite scores, and contrast between composite scores. They are derived from public data, no Synergy stats. The final formulas just seem to work relatively well.

(rankings are relative to 374 players who played at least 315 minutes this season)

[31to6]

Well I like anything where we have two in the top 10! Since JT is 3rd in it (and Wanamaker 206) what is “demonstrated PG ability”?

Whoa. JT was 27th. I need to correct that.

'demonstrated PG ability' is basically a composite score affected by ballhandling stats, assist stats, offensive plus/minus, and intangibles. I would actually have to dig into my spreadsheet to better detail the exact formula.

[captain green]

Tatum #2 overall defense? Awesome

[Jammer]

So, threrf23, despite your hedging response in my post for a vote, you may have been one of the 20 who supported the Gobert for Smart, Langford, Poirier and Oyeleye?

I didn't take the proposal all that seriously, but I recall speaking up for it.

People can hate b/c he's not a "modern center," but the guy's been averaging 16 & 14 while shooting 70% from the field and maintaining a reputation as a DPOY candidate. That would help us. Granted, 84% of his shots come within three feet of the rim, and my calcs (this year and previous years) say he's a tier or two below DPOY territory.

Should have to dig up a lot more to the sheet as I don't agree with some of the stats (Kawhi has been far from being the most impactful defender in the league this past years), but this pretty much supports most of my takes this year:

- Tatum is a stud. Not only because he is a great offensive player, but because he is a monster defensively. More a team-defender than a pure ball stopper, but the guy should make at least all-defensive 2nd team. If he ever becomes a primary initiator (right now I'd consider him a primary scorer) he'll be a top-5 player easily.

- Brown has turned himself into a great scorer, but this year his defense was bad. He also benefits a lot from playing in Boston. I don't think right now he has a game that impacts winning tremendously. Despite that, I am never going to bet against him. The guy has a competitive fire that will allow him to reach whatever he wants.

- Hayward is in that Horford territory where while his stats do not pop off, he is a solidified top-25 player. The guy is probably matched with Tatum in contributing to winning.

- Javonte might get everyone excited but he is a borderline NBA player.

Also:

- See how there's barely any center in the top 20?

I guess it's worth noting that Jokic came in 1st overall on offense (21st overall), and KAT also came in top 10 offense (but showed to be a liability on defense). When computing final scores, defense is weighted more than offense for the Center position.

I mean, we don't really need a spreadsheet to tell us why Towns has never sniffed the playoffs as the primary option.
(this is an attack towards primary options, bad defenders at the center position, not on your awesome job, ofc)
