Win Shares = an estimate of the number of wins contributed by a player.
If you want to get a better idea of how good dudes truly are, get to know the following (you don't need to know the math, just know what "good" is by the number)
WS
Ws per 48 (win shares per 48 minutes)
Box +/- (the more games the better)
Offensive and Defensive Box +/-
Player Efficiency Rating (PER)
True Shooting %
Offensive Rating
Defensive Rating
Value Over Replacement Player
None are perfect on their own, but if a player is really high in many/most/all of them, he good.
Gotta be honest. Not liking how overly confident the local media is here in Denver right now. Most are talking like it is all but over tonight. Some even sound like the game is already over.
Hope the nuggets finish them off tonight and win by a lot. Not a heat fan and really not a fan of butler after what he did to the t-wolves even though the wolves should have kept him over Wiggins and towns.
Reminds me how confident everyone was last year for the Avs in game 5. Fortunately that turned out good, but a loss tonight will have Denver in some meltdown mode tomorrow.
Acknowledging that hockey is not a major sport in the United States and we only have it to prevent mass Canadian suicide, by my count this is the fourth major sports championship Denver is trying to lock down tonight?
That's what I got. And I think Rockies were 90s expansion with very few playoff appearances. I think they may have lost a WS but I can't remember.
Rockies did lose a WS. They have more playoff appearances (5) than I thought. No division titles which surprised me after seeing the amount of playoff appearances.
The RedSox swept them in 2007, which was the Rockies only WS appearance so far.
I’m fine with that, as long as they don’t start blowing everything in the 4th
Nah, tonight’s our night.
Nuggets better clean it up. Playing sloppy.
The early foul trouble on Jokic and AG threw them off their game. Joker‘s second foul was so dumb.
Other than Mike Breen, the ESPN crew is so bad all around. I liked Greeny with Golic but he’s just not a good studio guy. Smith is difficult to take.
This finals crew is what happens when a network has a lot of high dollar contracts. They cram people together on a stage.
This has been one ugly game. Ton of missed open shots, boatload of turnovers, lots of forced shots. Just ugly.
He appeared to be shooting short to me all game then all of a sudden full extension on his shots and making them now. Looked like he was throwing the game early.
