a poster has recently (as far as i've noticed) been posting different findings that they've come up with such as expected salary, win predictions, player on court value, etc. anyone else use this site? i've been looking through it and they have some pretty good stuff. they're win predictions of last yr and expected contracts have been pretty right on most of the time. seems like site that should be among the 82games.com and basketball-reference.com if it ever became more organized and complete.

anyone else use it? i haven't seen to many people reference it, is it already well known? have people found severe setbacks to it?

I'm skimming it. Any idea how long this site's been up, or what kind of formulas they're using?

I think basketball-reference.com is better in my opinion,stat geeks would probably love this site. And after doing further research when it said " All evaluations are done by a computer program with no human influence."my point is proven a site created by geeks.

So what you're saying is you have no objective criteria except for noted derision for what you term to be "geeks."
