RPM (a plus-minus type stat that Team Ricky loves) - 5th

WS/48 - 11th
Wins Produced - 6th
VORP - 10th
BPM - 11th
I can't think of any others. Of course Team Ricky is using the stat the most generous to Ricky and Khans is using a stat that is one of the least generous to Ricky (yet still not bad).
But the one common theme is that every single one has him placed in the upper half of starting PGs.
I don't know what most of those stats mean. For example... Rubio is one of the best in the league at "wins produced" but the team is 17 - 37.
As I noted earlier, wouldn't this mean that the rest of the team is fucking terrible? I mean we have a facilitating, all-world defensive PG... but the team still loses 2x more than it wins and is near the very bottom of the league on defense.
Actually, wins produced look like a good stat.
Rubio produced 7 wins so far and if we deduct Rubio and his wins the team would be 10 - 44. It seems about right to me.
Curry produced 15 wins, if Wariiors played without Curry they would be about 33 - 19 which fits with my personal observation.
Westbrook and Durant produced 25 wins between them. Without them OKC would be a very bad team with 15 - 39 record. Very realistic if you ask me.
