Is there any place to access Real Plus-Minus information sorted by team?

Something like this, except dynamically updated on a site somewhere. (note: image is accurate as of December 28th)

Congrats guys. Well done

Here are the final rankings: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13nBs6XGSXRi1mT5ygGlZkqPGnFBfohDi8GCUEVCG_-M/edit#gid=0 Here are the R^2 of each user's rankings compared to the cumulative ranking Layne 0.887666481 Steve 0.551177824 Nick 0.839860748 Jesse 0.879277016 Mass 0.902710641 BPM 0.54659...

Nice work.
Is "hockey assist" data available? It could be worth including that data in some way too.

Long time lurker chiming in here... Do you think we should also be showing how many spots a players gains/loses in comparison to the DE mock? Further, do you think we should create an additional ranking that is a blend between the consensus rank and the DE mock? For sure, i would like to see that. A...

Don't forget Layne Vashro's work: http://nyloncalculus.com/stats/layne-va ... ion-tools/

Hey VJL, i noticed you have some guys in your spreadsheet that have decided to go back to college, such as Delon Wright and Brice Johnson. Just a heads up.

Ah, the things i would give to have access to his model.

Those are some radically-thinking solutions, interesting. But most of the "problems" you list are subjective, and would be different for each individual. I don't find over half of those things to be a problem for me.

Historically, the EWP catches quite a few notorious busts: Morrison (2.7), Olowakandi (4.3), Flynn (3.9), Wes Johnson (3.1), Mayo (3.2), Joe Alexander (1.7), Fizer (3.7). The clearest case going the other direction, where the EWP really didn't like a high pick and that guy turned out to be a star i...

Is there any way i can read about the numbers without watching 17 minutes of video?

Awesome. I was hoping you would merge the two.

Unrelated: I wonder when Mike Muscala will get a chance in the NBA.

Hey VJL, i noticed you added RAPM to your spreadsheet. Just curious, do you weigh age into the projection?

This is really interesting. But i don't know if WinShares are the best way to measure the quality of player, since a player's WS has a lot to do with the amount of playing time they get, which depends largely on the coach/system and team circumstance. I'd be interested to see how this would look wit...
