PER...Joke Stat

[LAZERUSS]

Westbrook leading the NBA at 33.3, and AD right behind at 32.5.

Neither anywhere close to historic seasons, and yet both are well ahead of the all-time record.

Just another of the MANY "mini stats" that can be thrown out today. RAPM, ORtG, DRtG, WS, WS/48, OBPM, DBPM...all WORTHLESS stats.

Reminds me of some baseball's ridiculous statistics, like how a player has batted against a certain left-handed pitcher, in a day game, after the seventh inning, with runners in scoring position, and with a two-strike count.

tl;dr some arbitrary numbers argument about why Wilt turns him on more than current players. Watch out, if challenged, will resort to redneckery and more dumb **** number shit, approach thread with caution

I understand. You have reading disability, and any post over 5 words is too difficult to comprehend.

Please, go back to "reading" your coloring books.

ORTG and DRTG are really team stats. Along with TRB%, AST%, TS%, eFG%, TOV%, etc...

This post makes ZERO sense.

Again... + / -...just as RIDICULOUS as PER...

How about this one, from just last night...

Mike Miller, by FAR-AND-AWAY, the best player on the floor.

Westbrook's "efficiency" this year...

His eFG% is at .492...in a league that is shooting .499.

His TS% is .566...in a league where the entire Clipper and Warrior TEAMs are shooting above that.

PER = JOKE STAT.

AD in 2014-15:

35.1 mpg, 24.4 ppg, 10.4 rpg, 1.6 apg, 2.9 bpg, 1.7 spg, 1.3 tov, .567 FG%, .792 FT%, .567 eFG%, .618 TS%, 16.4 TRB%... 32.5 PER

Keep in mind that the league eFG% is also .499 and TS% is .538.


A past-his-peak KAJ in 1979-80:

38.3 mpg, 24.8 ppg, 10.8 rpg, 4.5 apg, 3.4 bpg, 1.0 spg, 3.6 tov, .604 FG%, .765 FT%, .604 eFG%, .639 TS%, 15.4 TRB%,... 25.3 PER

in a league with an eFG% of .486, and a TS% of .535.


32.5 to 25.3. Yep...it all makes sense now.

This post is disappoint.

Why? Because there is virtually nothing to support the significance of those "mini" stats?

Even the devil can quote the Bible, some say.

You can use these stats to prove a lot of things that aren't real. For example, EFG% is skewed towards this era because of the 3. It used to be that defense was measured by no. of buckets that go through the hoop, literally. EFG% will naturally increase towards this era because of the preponderance of 3 point shooting, but bucket for bucket there were more shots being made during the 70s and 80s.

So the moral of the story is----do not compare eras. Each era has a story to tell, and they stand on their own terms.
