You're reflexively taking the position that these advanced metrics are always a better gauge of value than a little bit of stats and a little bit of the eye test. 1) Sometimes the model stinks (just because these stats are advanced compared to their precedecessors doesn't necessarily make them all that great; I think a lot of these numbers are getting the SABR treatment when they fall wayyyy short of them in actually quantifying value) 2) Even if the model doesn't stink it doesn't work the same way in all cases I mean if these metrics are enough to say Rose isn't a real MVP contender then why weren't the militant stat heads waving the Kevin Love for MVP banner earlier on? To me, that's just a tacit admission that their numbers can be misleading.

Where did Scott bottom out in the world rankings? I coulda swore he was a complete after thought for awhile. Kinda like Dimarco is now.
-
The Lakers sideline reporter is pretty crack whorey looking. Who does it for Blackhawks? Shee might be the hottest in the business. And yeah good game. No defense at all. Brooks finally is giving Ibaka real burn.
-
Agreed on belly putters but Scott wasnt top 20 was he? I thought he firmly in bust territory as far as how good people thought he would be.

cuz there's still stuff to play for. Noah played 18 minutes this game WITH Howard suspended. Clearly Thibs doesn't think this is a finished product. It's not like Noah and Boozer should be worn down for the playoffs.

Here we go.

mvp

Capture that in PER you [expletive] goofus Hollinger
-
There's also the fact that Boozer and Noah still haven't developed a solid chemistry (hasn't been in the game in the 4th quarter at all from what I can see) and that won't happen the right way without Rose on the floor.
-
Rose was fouled on 4 different occasions there but it's called off on him.
-
We still have the #1 overall seed to play for

Boozer has not faced up one time without turning it over.

-
Vehicular manslaughter is the new firm minimum.
-
You guys are talking about a carry like it's ever called.

Derrick Rose has the greatest crossover dribble in the history of Western Civilization. Edit: that's [expletive] art
