Manu PER

[timvp]

How can Duncan's PER change without playing? PER is a per minute measurement. If he plays no minutes, then his per minute stats shouldn't change.

In the PER formula, there is a "pace" factor in the equation. As that pace number changes, so do the PERs of every player whether they are active or not.

Another flaw. The pace factor should only be for those games actually played in.

If a Steve Nash goes out and the team's overall pace factor changes because he's not there, it should have no effect on his individual rating.

Some Guy posted this stats on a non Spurs board...:

20 games into the season, and Manu still has a PER over 30, while playing absolute shut-down defense

He's holding opposing shooting guards to a PER of 9.8!

The Spurs are 19.4 points better when he is on the court (their offense is 11.2 points better and their defense is 8.2 points better). Just ridiculous stats, so far.

To say he's not the best shooting guard in the league (AT THE MOMENT) is foolish, IMHO.
