And here is an entirely different discussion I had once w/ some NBA analytic dorks...not CC-specific, but we will use her and the Fever as they are the ones we are most familiar with and her high usage rate would bring this into play.

CC averages 8+ APG....how many of those assists are directly because of her, and how many are offense/play based and how many are just the result of basketball being played?

It is a small sample size, but the Fever this year are averaging 20.6 APG.
In the 4 games that CC missed, they are averaging 20 APG.

So they would say CC is "worth" +.6 APG even though she averages over 8 per game herself.

And on the flip side...I don't have the stats in front of me right now, but I believe the Fever average 2+ more TOs per game w/ out CC than they do with her this season, so if someone is going to say she's worth +.6 APG then they would also need to credit her w/ the decrease in TOs, which would be a much higher % than most would think.

Thoughts?

Thoughts?
Now how many points per game do they average with her on the floor vs not, just based on how much gravity she has opening the floor up for other players?

If we were talking about deacon hill turning it over wayyyy too much most of you guys would be fine with it. I love Mitchell getting in the face of that chick, that one was worth the T
Did Hill account for 40% of the teams offense? Comparing apples to chainsaws again aren't you.....

Ruocco and Lobo mentioned how very hot Atlanta's arena was, and then last night it was apparently very warm again in Toronto's arena. Let's hope the Dallas, NY, and Chicago arenas are cooler.
About as hot as Mitch was with Mabrey. ;)

Actually she's only .1 assist higher/GM then Thomas , so no. BUT she's still a much better scorer and her gravity is much bigger then Thomas. Pretty sure Thomas has never been top three scorer in the league while leading the W in assists..
Thomas racks up a lot of her assists off their dribble handoff offense. It still technically counts as an assist if the "pass" leads to a basket.
