Best Playoff Players, 2003-2011 (*according to statistical /-)

As a follow-up to Thursday's post about the best Finals performances according to Statistical Plus/Minus, here's a playoff ranking since 2003 with a few tweaks: I finally re-ran the Offensive SPM formula without steals and blocks. Steals in particular were causing certain players to be extremely overvalued offensively, and there's little reason to include those [...]

With the 52nd pick in the NBA Draft ? The Detroit Pistons select?

Vernon Macklin – Power Forward/Center from the University of Florida Gators. Going with the same theme of the Singler post – my 2 word descriptor for Macklin is “hard worker”.  If I had to describe his style of play I’d say he’s a “bigger Jason Maxiell, without the shot blocking”.  His body reminds me of [...]

Recruiting Links: July 8, 2011

In order to save our reader, Barney, a little bit of time today, we decided to compile some snippets of news from the now-wide-open July “live” period. During July, coaches can travel to tournaments and camps around the country to see prospects in action and speak to them in person about their programs. Jay Wright opened the live period with a trip to Indianapolis, and he and his assistants will spend much of the month on the road (though both Jay and top assistant Billy Lange will be in New Jersey tomorrow for the Randy Foye Foundation Night for Newark). Nate Britt, a highly-rated point guard in the 2013 class, told Josh Barr of the Washington Post that the three schools recruiting him the hardest were Villanova, Georgetown and UVA. He was at the Adidas Invitational this week in Indianapolis, where Wright had an opportunity to recruit him in person.  There had been some discussion of Britt as the top point guard in his class after NBAPA camp, but according to Jeff Borzello that may have dissipated: Nate Britt had his moments where he was unstoppable, but he was outplayed by the Harrison twins. Still, when his jumper is falling, [...]

File this one under ?What?s Next?: It?s called the ?Legendary Icon?
