Per is the dumbest stat out there today. Bottom line.Originally Posted by HornetGuru
thanks
It is useful when trying to get an idea of how productive a player generally is using box-score stats. Typically, good offensive players that play similar minutes end up with a high PER. If you have a low PER, you are not an effective offensive threat. If you have a high PER while playing a significant number of minutes, you are probably a fine offensive player.
Using it as anything more than that would be a mistake, imo.
darius miller is an assassin, hope he gets a lot of practice this offseason and gets way more minutes next year

I'm not blind stat guy. If I want a stat it's supporting what I've seen with my own eyes, not the other way around.
All I can say is, between Gravvy and Jennings, I know who I'd rather with the ball in his hands when its time to win games late.
sounds exactly like GV, he is in fact a good offensive player with his points rebounds and assists, but if it would take into fact his D the scale would tip, i'll take jeff teague every day of the week over GV, he's a better scorer and defender, and quicker
How do u feel about jeff teague?
also guys jennings is just 23, cut him some slack

PER does take into account blocks and steals, but eh. Nothing even close to a useful measure of defense.
The most effective way to measure defense for a player with the stats available to the public is to analyze all the lineups the player played in and against and see how they did versus other lineups tried with and against those same lineups. And even then, you can only (partially) determine the impact of a single player on a single team. Can't really do it to compare players on other teams against each other.
Someone with lots of blocks and steals is probably a good defensive player, but they could still be bad since they gamble a lot. Someone with few blocks and steals is probably a poor defensive player, but could still be a good one if they force their opponent into taking poor shots and making poor passes.
Defensive stats are a crapshoot.

Next to nothing. I haven't seen enough of him.
He's an average point, IMO. Just like everyone this board is trying to trade GV for. :shrug: He would probably be a better fit for this team than Jennings or Greivis, though. He resorts to hero ball less often and is a fine defender while still being someone you have to guard on offense.
Yet, advanced metrics are thrown around here as the end all be all.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
i think stats overall are dumb, u have to evaluate a player by who's around him and what he does by watching him honestly, I trust demps to make the right choices.
Statistics together aren't dumb, it's just each different types of statistics tells a different story. The eye test is very important, but statistics are suppose to back up what you see. If you can't, people call it potential.
There's no overall rating stat. You need to use stats and learn to interpret them to get the answer.
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

If you really know what you're watching most of the time the advanced stats back up what your eyes see.
Or challenge common conceptions and encourage you to think about them in a different way to see if they still hold true.
