Re: The Moneyball of Basketball

Vindication!  I've been saying this for years...he is a team-defensive killa.

Interestingly enough, right now Jamario Moon is one of the top players according to that same stats methodology.  Every Raptor is a plus with him on the floor, and every Raptor except for Bosh and Calderon is a minus without him.  Despite people calling him a tissue on defense and terrible at shot selection, he has that same effect on the team....at least from a stats point of view.

We'll see if Marion meets or exceeds expectations.  And files his TPS reports on time.
