But I'm not saying that. At present. Rights reserved. WP has always overly weighed defensive rebounding. And I'm pretty sure you dont believe Rodman was ever a better player than Jordan.

I don't think the notion that regression analysis does a better job of assigning weights to variables than your gut does qualifies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodman was WAY ******* better than you are giving him credit, at least with the Pistons. He became a total sideshow and his bullsh*t rebounding celebrity sh*t was out of control, but his D was a HUGE part of that Bad Boys dynasty. A sh*tload more than that hack Laimbeer or Rick Mahorn. Guy was a true shutdown defender and that was pretty big when trying to get around Bird, Dominique, the Bulls and the rest. Wilt was that ******* great. He was probably half washed up by the time I remember him and he was better than Kareem and Shaq. Cause he plays like a nerd. He'd have kept hogging the ball like he did in '99. Took the ******* guy getting hurt for that lineup to take off. Wilt dominated b/c of his size and only won 1 or 2 titles in his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WP is great as an output, using it as a tool to measure each players individual worth over the course of their careers is tricky. Obviously a starting 5 of all Rodman's would be awful.

This begs the question of why hypothetical clone lineups is a good way to measure how basketball games are won in the real world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a very confusing post-apocalyptic Science Fiction book with parallel universes, worm holes and talking trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
