cause i need a systematic rating system


So are we ever going to get something like +/- in the BuzzerBeater box score?

do you think that +/- stuff helps understanding the game..?
i don't find it useful..


Yes, over time, I think its possible to determine whose make positive and negative contributions to the team.

so, you guys can tell me how to use it..
what should i think when i see a boxscore like this..? --> http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore;_ylt=Atm7sOCBWiv1gbz...


Well, its like any other basketball statistic -- if a guy goes 1-6 from the field, I don't bench him. But over the course of a number of games, if the guys has an unusually good or bad +/-, then I begin to think he might be contributing something that some of the other stats don't measure (usually defense, decision-making or something).

How can you say that you don't find it useful without knowing how to use it...

Nah there is no formula whatsoever to extract the useful data out of it. It's to compare what player mix the winning mix was, and who contributed to the lead momentum. It's pretty useful if you wanna find out who is exactly spoiling it for the rest of the team or who is the winning factor of the team. Which is pretty useful if you don't really know who is contributing what.
