No problem. I'll keep posting as long as there is interest. I personally like to see how the objective, box score-based value scores match up with Tupac's and other's evaluations of how players performed. For the most part they do correlate well. Sometime's the value scores identify suprise leaders, like Yeguete, who aren't flashy but score points, pull down rebounds and don't make turnovers. Their production, stats-wise, are higher valued than others who have higher profiles on the team.

I'll keep posting if I get 150+ views. If it starts dropping below that, then I'm just spamming the board and I'll stop posting.
