No, It's simply a measure of how much of a positive or negative the person is over the average player per 100 possessions. It's not relative to that persons team. So just for any team in general based off of his performance last year, curry would be expected to be worth 1.9 points defensively over the average player. The statistic was literally designed for this purpose i don't know what else to say lol.
That's why I had to give the tony parker example of a player, who similar to curry is in a starting line up stacked with defensive players yet he still has a very negative DRPM because it eliminates the skewing from them.

Ok Charles Barkley, literally just so full of ignorance rofl. That is why nba teams spend millions of dollars on analytics departments because they're garbage, they just spend the money because they don't understand basketball and want to seem smart lmao.

Lol okay. Because at the end of the day basketball isn't actually about putting points on the board efficiently and how much a player is better at it than another.

I could easily say disparaging advanced stats is a way for people that don't really understand it to still seem knowledge and ignore the fact that objective evidence does not support their takes.

The eye test and advanced stats work together. But when advanced stats counter "impressions", "knowledge", "reputation" and other general unnuanced subjective hand waving, as does actual analysis in the case of Curry beyond simplistic disbelief there's often something going on.

What have analytics gotten the Rockets and Sixers?
Advanced stats are cool
but people like you are blind to common sense and just go off what stats say and disregard anything else except those stats

I do think Cousins is better than Aldridge though
PPG, RPG, BLKPG, PER all higher than Griffin. I respect your opinion, but I disagree.

They are close. Blake can run an offense and to me that might give him the slight edge. At times he's basically an extra guard on the court for them.

Blake would average more rebounds if not playing alongside the best rebounder in the league (averaged 13 in the playoffs actually), he would score more if he got the touches and was demanded of it like Cousins is, and he's a PF, ridiculous to expect him to block as many shots as Cousins especially given that they have Jordan.

Cousins stats are partially inflated because of his team much like Love in Minnesota
And his efficiency is terrible
Didnt he lead the league in total turnovers?
