PER Ratings for this series

[Schilly]

I know PER is not the end all be all, but it is interesting to look at. So here are our PER numbers for this series. Gee, Freeland and Frazier have been discounted due to lack of PT.

Leonard 23.1
Aldridge 18.9
Lillard 15.4
Crabbe 14.8
Kaman 14.7
Batum 12.8
McCollum 12.1
Lopez 10.4
Blake -1.6
Aflalo -3.4

Lol how does Kaman always have a semi decent PER while sucking?

50% shooting and 12 rebounds in 31 total minutes. Rebounding inflates PER.

I wonder what the breakdown was for LMA and Dame for games 1&2 vs games 3&4? The eye test says LMA dropped off a lot after the first 2 games.

I prefer the eye test to PER.

Afflalo's PER wasn't exactly stellar in the regular season.
And it's not like it was great when he was with the Nuggets.
It's a good thing PER doesn't mean jack, isn't it?

 

[Schilly]

It's not like the eye test has been more encouraging for Blake or Afflalo

Nobody's PER was good on the Brian Shaw Nuggets

No doubt lol

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Meyers, in numbers and eye test, has the Z-Bo breakout vibe. I know I've said it like 50 times this week, but it's just so strong.

Meanwhile, for the Grizz, it's been Beno Udrih.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

All those in favor of sitting Blake and Afflalo in favor of more CJ, Crabbe, and Frazier.
(Frazier in particular should give the slow-footed Udrih and Calathes trouble, and then he's in the paint and anything could happen.)

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I worry about Frazier given it's a big risk to give a rookie PG run of a playoff team for more than 0 minutes... but hell why not?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

I mean shit, if Frazier can't do anything against nick fucking calethes, what the absolute fuck. I'm sick of these Memphis pgs, I've had my fucking fill!

Is frazier a good defender? Shut those motherfuckers down!

 

[Boob-No-More]

I know Aldridge's shot has been off, but he;s doing everything else well (rebounding, passing defending, blocking shots, etc.). So, that has kept his PER at a respectable, but unspectacular 18.9.

And for all those dog-piling on Aldridge for not showing up in this series, perhaps you'd prefer Zach Randolph and his 8.4 PER, 13.5 ppg, 8.5 rpg and 0.0 bpg to Aldridge's 18.9 PER, 23.8 ppg, 11.8 rpg and 2.5 bpg.

BNM

The eye test says LMA dropped off a lot after the first 2 games.

...kind of like the Houston series last year, hopefully he can find his stroke in Memphis again!

Lillard 15.4
Crabbe 14.8
Kaman 14.7
Batum 12.8
McCollum 12.1
Lopez 10.4
Blake -1.6
Aflalo -3.4

Take out Blake and Afflalo and put in Crabbe and Kaman.

Replace the ball handlers with the pass receivers. That'll help...

...the Grizzlies...

PER likes low usage catch-and-shoot artists, not creators.

The big difference is Leonard is selfless, team oriented and has a hoops family of ken dolls

And can jump, play defense, is athletic and has that rocking Johnny Bravo look about him.

He needs to re-grow it and keep it... Just so the team can sell Meyerstaches
