Red’s 01 end of season RPEF
Sorry I didn’t get this up before FA, though pretty sure most of these guys weren’t in FA. The basis for these lists to get in to be judged was 15ppg or 10rpg. A few others that were close were added along with some for cursory looks. Too calculate the RPEF each player page must be opened to garner the stats from there.
First up we have the big men at C. Zo topped the chart with KG coming in just a hair under Zo. The real question will be will KG put up that same score with a full season at C vs ½ at PF and ½ at C. I’m sure Shaq’s 45% FT shooting and high TO rate hurt him for his score. Joe Smith is another one, that we’ll be keeping our eye on to see if his ratings drop as full time C vs playing ½ the season at PF
Next com the big forwards, the PFs. Tim Duncan just destroys everyone. The mortal men listed as PF that are the studs are Dirk and Marion. Marion is somewhat surprising since he has such a high TO rate.
The SF class is led by a PF in A. Walker, but after that it looks like mainly guys that actually played SF iirl. Nice to see that the position isn’t being dominated by just bigs.
Onto SG, and for the 2nd straight year AI is still hoping MJ will retire so he can rule the roost instead of coming in 2nd. While AI ppg was down with the emergence of Smith and Bibby, his tenacious D and topping the league with 2.6 steals a night really helped his score out.
Last ofc are the guys driving the show, and I’m sure everyone is surprised it was Nash that is leading the pack. Billups and Crawford are the other guys not looking like a mere mortals.
Oh and in case anyone was wondering, PJ Browns RPEF for last season was 17.540, which is not worth a max, but at least the Heat don't have him anymore.
Be on the lookout for Red’s Rookie PREF roundup where we finalize the look on the 01 Rookies. Included will be the top 00 rookies for comparison.
For those that do not read ever article I write, little history about the RPEF:*
I looked at the PER formula by John Hollinger, and realized while I would not mind programming it, doing it in excel would blow chunks. So I looked at combining a basic version of his idea with the outdated ( (ppg+R+A+B+S-TO) to come up with a rating that not only rewarded a good EFT, but also penalized people from missing fee points. I’m sure Shaq hates this formula that I developed. While it really hurt his points portion of the formula, his nonstop rebounding and the best assist per game rate of any of the Centers has him as one of the best Centers in the game. Now to validate the formula I looked at historical data of some of the best players to ever play the game and then further tweaked the formula to reward steals a tad more than blocks as a block doesn’t automatically cause a turnover. One other note about the Red’s PEF, it is actually four formulas that are combined into one. At no point was the PEF copied or tweaked, just a few ideas about what he has done was used as a foundation to venture forth with the few stats we have to for making a comprehensive formula.
*pretty sure articles aren’t read in their entirety often as I keep finding horrible grammar errors that NO ONE points out.
