Basketball Content for this Fall/Winter - IDEAS

The +/- or charting was something I recall from HS and proved to be an interesting gauge as the season went on. I don't recall the exact values but something along the lines of:
+2 steal / -2 turnover
+1 offensive rebound / +2 defensive rebound to emphasize defense
+1 made free throw / -1 missed
+3 taking a charge
+2 blocked shots

I actually hate this type of +/- stats. My high school coach used to it and called it APV (Assigned Point Value), it was stupid and provided no real measure of anything. Personal opinion not attacking your idea. Sorry had a bad expirience with it in high school and has always annoyed me.
I think the previous poster was talking more about a +/- stat like hockey. Is the team +/- as a whole while "so and so" is on the court.
 
i would like Jon to reinstall herby and have him face ghost and talk about the game. That was riot.I wish for a smiley that pull down his pant and wiggle his azz or a smiley with wreestling uniforms .

Herby! Herby! Herby! Could not agree more with atomic. Life is just not the same without the Herbster.

Sounds like the system pointed out you were not contributing the way you thought you were.;)

Agreed - for every player have a cumulative team points scored minus points opposing team scores during the minutes they are in the game.

That's what I meant with the plus/minus stuff, not the one calculated by awarding points for charges etc.

Kind of. We just had one guy that would do nothing but take charges and occassionaly rebound. He scored really high on this system and got to play more minutes than another player that was a much better player. Lots of us hated the system for this reason. Its just kind of silly idea.
 
i'm sure you'll do great, but would be awesome to have the chats be a regular feature. i know it is a lot of work, but i really like it, esp as i'm not able to catch all the games but can drop in to see how it is going.

I wouldn't mind Herby back at basketball time. He would get a bit feisty at times and might have been a year or two off on Gabe, but he did know basketball.......

:)
