www.HoopsHardcore.com

In the midst of all my past blogging, I have decided to put together a group of genius basketball minds, or so we think, and launch a site, here, called HoopsHardcore.com . The launch date is set for September 1st, so only a month away.

This isn't just another basketball rumor site, though we will report all important, and valid, rumors, trades, and signings that are official. But www.hoopshardcore.com plans on adding a new element to it all.... you might have to wait and see:

Updated Transactions
Updated Free Agent signings
Updated Rumors (with valid, legit sources)
Blog's from myself and other basketball minds.... who knows who else might blog....
Forum: a full fledged forum to discuss general NBA topics as well as some other topics
Rosters / Players / Teams
Radio Broadcasts / Shoutcasts
And more to leave to your imagination

So give it some time, and come September 1st I would personally check out www.hoopshardcore.com and see how I like it. ;)

Statistics:

Statistics Explained:

PER : Stat that takes into account positive accomplishments, such as field goals, free throws, 3-pointers, assists, rebounds, blocks and steals, and negative ones, such as missed shots, turnovers and personal fouls. The formula adds positive stats and subtracts negative ones through a statistical point value system. The rating for each player is then adjusted to a per-minute basis so that, for example, substitutes can be compared with starters in playing time debates. It is also adjusted for the team's pace. In the end, one number sums up the players' statistical accomplishments for that season. PER strives to measure a player's per-minute performance, while adjusting for pace. A league-average PER is always 15.00, which permits comparisons of player performance across seasons.

Per36: A stat that simply adjusts a players production to 36 minutes per game. It's a great way to compare players in a much more objective fashion. Simply put: it's going to show a players production as a starter getting starter minutes(36). When most analysts compare two players they will adjust each player to Per36 to get a more precise look. Comparing two starters per game stats while one plays 40mpg and the other plays 30mpg is not a very precise look into their actual production on the court; thus Per36 comes into play.
