Advanced stats re: Jennings vs. Ellis

[txsting]

Can anyone explain to me how 82games.com computes plus/minus ratings? It looks like Jennings and Ellis played at the same time for the majority of minutes last year. Yet Ellis looks favorably in plus/minus and Jennings looks like the worst player to ever stink up a court.

Can we all just agree that they are both pretty booboo... But I'd like to have Jennings over Teague honestly. Just me.

These stats are obviously very advanced...and beyond what you and I can understand.

He played PG next to Monta Ellis.

He played PG next to Monta Ellis.

So it's Monta Ellis's fault Jennings is OUTRAGEOUSLY inefficient?

No it was a joke.

But I believe Jennings has more potential to be better than Teague and Ellis. Between the Ellis and Salmons days, I'd say he has done pretty well considering everything.

I remember back when I was a Celtics fan...all I could do was look at the boxscores in the local newspapers. I was never afraid of the Hawks beating the Celtics (with Bird at the time) because their team FG%age was never as good.

I agree - Jennings just looks like he could do better. Silly to say...JMHO (or guess)
