One thing I always appreciated about popular baseball catch-alls is the algorithms are publicly available. For ex: wOBA, the pre-eminent offensive measure weights obp as 1.8 more valuable than slg based on historical pbp data. Easy to understand and fully transparent

Nba dorks say their catch-alls are forced into a digital black box bc the calculations are proprietary and that might be so…

But it’s w/o a doubt also bc hoops is too dynamic a sport to accurately reduce into a singular number, so they’re constantly tweeking these stats to match their subjective biases. There’s no scientific method to secret numbers, so not sure why they should be taken seriously

Knicks will waive Kevin McCullar Jr. to make room to sign Dalton Knecht on a two-way, per SNY sources.

On O, can still dunk by extending & using the rim to pull himself up but he doesn’t play above the rim. Those rim runs are not that intimidating. An extra defender don’t got to crash down to bump him with the same urgency. Going from top 20 big itl to a jag will a massive shock

I don’t believe in the sixers. Embiid can’t jump and moves like he has fiberglass in his shoes. Ain’t no way turnstile D winning multiple playoff series

Banton, their highly publicized $2m signing, was absolute dog water. Worst player on the floor to the point he got benched for the most the 2nd half and lost to Marquese Chris’ team

Shooting always been Bruce Brown’s one bugaboo. But he shot 48/39/76 last ssn and was still a net neg and now out of the league. Shows how if you don’t have the requisite nba level athleticism, you’re ngmi

He’s not close to the above the rim athlete he was in Detroit/Brooklyn but it’s the complete loss of movement skills that sealed his fate

Wiseman one of the 20 best on the planet at playing the 2 on 1 in drop. Can’t teach those instincts. Sits down on D. Catches everything above shoulders. Runs the floor like a deer.

Injuries have devastated his career. Always in injury ramp-up mode and getting minutes yanked around. Trouble catching a rhythm as a young guy. Not the most disciplined either - he’s smart in recognizing actions and being in the right spot but prone to falling for head fakes

and getting off his feet. Jittery, hacks a ton. But the flaws are fixable and should improve with experience. I see a quality starting center in there

(wouldn’t happen if he don’t tear his achilles 2 years ago and Hali don’t tear his a year+ ago - he would’ve proven himself by now)
