Greg Steele and Advanced Analytics

We grade some of Patrick's grades from last week. Greg likes Patrick's Spurs bets but thinks that the Knicks could be alright. Greg thinks Giannis hasn't hit his ceiling! We discuss 538's Raptor and some issues we've had in analytical models and standard flaws we've seen over the years. Greg makes a slam dunk point -- when you evaluate a metric or a model, look at the math and how the model is constructed. While player rankings are what get clicks, it is not how you should prove or disprove a model's output. We talk Greg's offseason grades for the Lakers and why he likes DeMarcus Cousins more than us.
