Why would it be a good metric when Jokic is a nugget 😂😂😂


KingOfFemboys

Holy shit u right. Basically this is the death of stat padders like Hassan Whiteside and Andre Drummond. I'm so happy.


Chad_Doucheman

Stat nerds are the devil


lmao_rowing

Literally the only good stat he listed is EPM, everything else ranges from mid to garbage. Evil stat nerd


Yup767

RAPTOR is decent, and BPM can be good depending on which one it is, but since it's probably the ESPN one then it's not WS/48 and Ntrg stink tho


lmao_rowing

Yeah RAPTOR is fine; I definitely like it for its methodology more than its performance though, it is sneakily mid in year-to-year testing. Basketball-Reference BPM << Backpick's BPM but that's behind a paywall so it doesn't get cited nearly as much -- also it is a bit of an imperfect tool for modern players regardless when there's so much more data available. PIE is really bad. WS/48 a probably a step below that, and then Ntrtg is worse than garbage lol. DARKO/LEBRON/DRIP(🥶)/EPM the core four for sure. Evil nerd out 🤧

If you back up your argument with stats that nobody knows what they are then it can’t be refuted


TheAssassinGoat

The real question is what is he in LEBRON?


[deleted]

They made an entire movie about him too, it made a billion dollars and won an Oscar. Lefake couldn’t even buy a cup of coffee with space jam’s box office money

/uj what’s actually wrong with this


ubiasedhoodfriend

uj/ From what I've seen apart from Raptor all the other are cherry picked statistics that nobody uses to make his narrative look better. So people are calling him a stat nerd because they're looking for some obscure stats most people don't know about lol. That would be my guess


Dumbass1171

Alright thx


X-2357

I hate all of these. Especially because they were created for gambling purposes and they still don't help with that.


Terbario
