I didnt bother to check the others. Its pretty absurd since the pacers are the BEST rebounding team in the league.

hibbert should have around an 80 Oreb and a 45 Dreb, west should be 50 Oreb and 60 Dreb

He's hitting 55% of his free throws. There are only 2 centers shooting worse, DeAndre Jordan and Dwight. So his ft rating should be around 55, he's a horrible ft shooter.

The problem with Wall having such a high pass rating is that it kinda messes up any scaling idea for PG attributes. If you give Wall a 94, you would pretty much have to max out Calderon/Vasquez/Rondo/Paul/Holiday.

Now Wall is a very good passer, but his true strength is to capitalize on defenses having to double him on drives leading to open shots. So he's a really good passer in the context of his aggressive ball dominating game, but as a pure passer, he's a tier below the top PGs like Paul and Calderon at least to me.

My passing tiers look something like this:

>95 Paul,Calderon,Rondo,Nash
90-95 Rubio,Holiday,Vasquez,Lebron
85-90 Wall,Dragic,Nelson,Teague
80-85 Parker,Westbrook,Jennings,Lillard,Curry

And so on...the main point being that athletic PGs like Wall and Westbrook are not neccessarily better pure passers than say Dragic and Nelson, even though they might average something like 1 more assist per game.
I think it's much closer than most people think, there are many good to great passers in the league, some of them simply don't have the athleticism or offensive arsenal to be more than a very good playmaker.

On a different note, can a Nets fan explain to me why DWill is not even averaging 8 assists per game? Haven't seen many BKN games lately, did he have injury problems or what's going on with him?

@mango,

as for as pass ratings go i gave nash rondo cp3 and rubio 99's. i based it more off ability to pass rather than assist #'s as those can get skewed by team play styles, which is why i gave lebron a 97 or something on his passing.

as far as d-will goes his assists are low because the nets run an iso offense pretty much.

Although the passing sig skills matter, the passer rating itself seems to have no effect (other than alley oops?). Has anyone seen any evidence in the diff between a 90 and 60 passing other than alley oops?

passes get deflected less with a higher rating, and it REALLY comes into play with bounce passes.

also a higher rating does more flashy passes

Don't feel bad. I've been getting destroyed since Day 1 when it comes to rebounding with the Pacers. I had a game LAST week where I got ZERO offensive boards and the Knick user TWELVE. I was soooooooooo livid. I still won the game, but it was ONLY because I shot like 50+% for the game.

It seems like Paul George is the only person that even goes after rebounds. Hibbert and West will block out, but they won't even attempt to grab a board.
